The Double Standard

 

The Double Standard: White Media, White Scandal

This channel isn't a movie review, but there is something that the spirit has moved me to speak about: Tron: Ares. I haven't seen it, and from the looks of things, nobody else has either. And the reason that I made it the subject of this morning's briefing is because I haven't been able to escape the ads on seemingly every website. I've decided to go ahead and give them some more free publicity.

Now, for the two or three of you who actually went and saw the movie, you probably know that Jared Leto is the lead in this movie. Now, this guy's got all kinds of terrible accusations against him right now. All sorts of issues with this man's name getting dragged through the mud enough to start a new #MeToo movement. And yet, you haven't heard a word about it in the leadup to the release of this film, have you? I'm still wondering when someone's going to make Surviving Jared Leto. But since nobody in the white media wants to make his name a little bit awkward, I'll do it.

For the uninformed and the uneducated, they may say, "Well, the reason you haven't heard anything about his name in the run-up to the movie's release is because Tron is a Disney flick, and they've got enough clout and influence to keep their white media pals from making a big stink about it." Well, if that's true, then explain Jonathan Majors. Marvel is also under Disney, and Jonathan Majors worked for them playing Kang. That is until Disney fired him because some accusations were made against him. The white media had a field day demonizing him because they only create black stars to either be made examples of when they take them down or to be made an example of a loyal bootlick if they let you stick around.

Now, I don't know if the accusations regarding Jared Leto happen to be valid or whether or not it's just gossip, but either way, the mere fact that there were accusations against him, especially if it had anything to do with minors, would be enough for this guy to already be banned from every single movie, TV show. He'd be yanked from all the streaming services. That's what it would be if he was the same color as Jonathan Majors.

Remember what happened with that other freak of nature who portrayed a superhero, Ezra Miller? There's a guy who had similar problems to Jared Leto. And yet, for some strange reason, this man wasn't banned from Hollywood after all the mess he's been involved in. No prosecutions, no non-stop headlines, and no parade or stampede of advertisers and sponsors all publicly disavowing him and dumping him.

The big story about this Tron movie's release this weekend should be the utter scandal and how shameful it is that Jared Leto is the headliner for such a huge movie and that nobody's protesting them and that Hollywood's protecting all of these deviants and all of these abusers. That's what the headlines ought to be.

Weaponizing Scandal Against Black Men

The problem isn't that #MeToo or Time's Up have run their course either. We just saw Diddy get sentenced and the white media had no problem bragging that this is a head on the trophy wall of #MeToo, etc. It's more powerful men finally being brought down after years of getting away with their crimes. And I'm sure that somewhere Camal Dumbbell is preparing the pitch for another documentary. This time we need to talk about Diddy. And because of the fact that Showtime is owned by the Ellisons now, the parent company of CBS, I'll bet that Bari Weiss would probably be the main person to produce something like that.

And it's important that we make sure to remind people of things like this because whenever they're attacking people like Diddy or Bill Cosby or what have you, they're not doing it because these guys are rich or because these guys are famous. They're doing it because it's part of how the white media keeps up the non-stop drum beat of "black people bad." Black people are always particularly egregiously wrong. And here are some examples of it. Oh, you know how these negroes are. It's all about manufacturing the lie that black people are the face of fill in the blank, whatever is negative.

So, now that Jared Leto has had yet another box office bomb—he seems to have a non-stop string of them—I want to see headlines saying that Jared Leto is washed up, finished, and that only a stupid studio executive would give him the green light on anything. And I'd also like to see the professional activist class, you know, the ones who are always ready to make a three-ring circus out of anything involving black people under scandal, go ahead and say that Bob Iger needs to be thrown out of Disney.

But then again, when Jared Leto made another comic book movie bomb, Morbius, nobody said that the likes of Amy Pascal needed to be thrown out of Sony. Nobody ever called into question whether or not any of those white executives ought to keep their jobs because they have people like Jared Leto on the payroll despite his various scandals and accusations against him. They're not going out of their way to connect his name to scandal at all. Nobody's saying that his movies keep bombing because the young moviegoers who the studios want to reach are disgusted by him. That he needs to go on an apology tour. Of course not. Robin Roberts won't be doing any interviews with him on this. And neither will Gayle Williams. And they certainly won't be going after any of his co-stars or interrogating people who have worked with him in the past like they did after Kobe Bryant died.

That's one of the things I simply cannot stand about the sorry negroes who are always ready to say, "Well, just because these white offenders don't go to jail and don't have their careers ended, does that make R. Kelly right?" Listen up, stupid. When the likes of Harvey Weinstein and others are allowed to prey on black women with impunity, when a number of these creeps are allowed to violate and even kill black women and the law doesn't touch them, you're a fool if you try to act as if all you got to do is put R. Kelly in jail and black women are safe.

R. Kelly didn't get prosecuted and sent to prison because of any alleged actions that he did against black women. The only reason that he's in a cell this morning is because of the fact that the white media, they need to change the headlines because you had all of these white media executives who were getting dragged and rightly so. Finally getting called out, finally getting exposed. And since they're the ones who control what people's eyeballs see for the most part, they decided, okay, we're going to go ahead and start putting nothing but black faces up there. These kind of things are not about public safety. It's all about maintaining a certain status quo. And if that doesn't matter to you, then what you're really saying is you're much more interested in pursuing respectability politics than you are justice. There is no honor or intelligence in deciding to go along with the idea of rules for me but not for thee.

The white media and these activists in these studios, they could care less about whether or not Diddy or Bill Cosby or R. Kelly did anything to anyone. These guys were all nothing more than pawns to be moved around for the benefit of the dominant society. It was all about whitewashing their image at the expense of ours.
