But it would be racist to have posters of white actors replacing black actors in movies. So why is this okay?

An odd thing I’ve learned: If a movie has black, indian, asian white, you name it, actors in it, race is pretty much irrelevant regarding whether I’m going to like the movie. But if the entire cast is black, with maybe a token white person, I know I’m not going to like it.

It’s not that I’m racist. It’s that the movie’s sensibilities are based on a culture different than mine. i.e. it’s just not interesting. And if everything was the same, except the actors are white, it would be the same thing. That is, the all black cast and cultural baseline for the movie go hand in hand. And it’s never a culture I can relate to. So the movie is not a positive entertainment experience.

i.e. as usual, it’s not race. It’s culture.

Hollywood can virtue signal about diversity, but in reality they know that no white people would have gone to see Titanic with two black leads.

Oh, I’m on this bandwagon. I don’t want to see pale faces any more! Kids, your skin color is inferior and don’t you forget it! White is NOT beautiful! Replace all these white people!

Do I get it? Just trying to be hip and correct. Will let my kids know they aren’t beautiful because they have inferior pale skin. And help me explain how that matters.

An evolutionary dead end culture desperately grasping for a heritage, even if it means lying to themselves.

How many black people were actually on RMS Titanic as passengers?

“vandal advertising”

Well, that's a pretty accurate descriptor.

They’re not really thinking that whole “Titanic” thing thru. Imagine an all black cast of the movie “Titanic”. The boat still hits an iceberg and 1,500 people die. Imagine the screaming from the SJWs claiming they deliberately cast blacks in roles where they knew thousands of them would die.

Symbolic of what they want to do to Whites. After taking their money, of course.
