In at the moment’s episode of Simply Checking To See If Elon Musk Is Nonetheless Racist…Yep, He’s Nonetheless Racist, the South African migrant who spent President Donald Trump’s first day in workplace turning the Nazi salute right into a MAGA development has, for the second 12 months in a row, decried range on the Oscars.
On Sunday, Musk reposted a tweet from a fellow white-and-eternally-whiny fanboy who was being fragile over the Academy of Movement Image Arts and Sciences’ range coverage concerning Finest Image nominees.
“That is tousled,” Musk captioned his publish. “Ought to simply be who’s greatest, not greatest with an asterisk!”
Oh nah, Musky, that asterisk has at all times been there.
You see, Musk, like hundreds of thousands of white individuals throughout the Western world, believes the explanation white actors and filmmakers have at all times dominated the Oscars is because of benefit, ignoring the truth that white individuals have at all times dominated the academy as a result of no racial demographic has ever been extra catered to than white individuals.
It’s the identical false logic they use when claiming DEI is racist towards white individuals whereas ignoring the truth that range initiatives have been solely ever needed within the first place as a result of, for the overwhelming majority of America’s historical past, white males have been hiring white males and solely white males in each single main business. That’s not “benefit,” it’s the lasting impact of patriarchy and white supremacy.
Equally, Musky Musk and his Nazi Bunch are pretending to consider an academy stuffed with white individuals who view artwork by a culturally white lens are prone to at all times discover the best nominees for Finest Image — versus the nominees white individuals are more than likely to consider are the very best nominees for Finest Image. White individuals who relate extra intently to white individuals constantly choosing predominately white movies for Finest Image will not be an instance of “benefit.”
Artwork is subjective. White privilege is a demonstrable truth.
Thoughts you, just below a 12 months in the past, Musk was on X calling the Oscars a “woke contest” as a result of he thought too many non-white individuals have been successful. When it was identified to him that white actors and administrators dominated all the most important awards, which they’ve virtually each single 12 months because the inception of the Academy, he instantly backpedaled and admitted that he was “flawed.”
That’s proper, people, Musk was educated on the truth that the Finest Image, Finest Actor/Actress and Finest Director classes, amongst others, have been overwhelmingly dominated by white individuals in 2024, and the Woke Boogieman that haunts his nightmares retreated again beneath his mattress and allowed him to relaxation comfortable. All was proper in his white world as soon as once more.
So, you understand, possibly Musk and his fellow fragile, diversity-hating white males are simply plain bigots, and the “woke” Oscars is simply one other excuse for them to let their bigotry shine.
Unhappy.
