This what happens when you do things by halves.

Make Cleopatra Will Smith, or Denzel Washington, or Chris Rock, or Tracy Morgan, or Snoop Dogg or Morgan Freeman and the show would have been a hit.

Because Bridgetton is fiction, this purported to be a “docudrama”

Elizabeth Taylor. The actress who nearly bankrupted 20th Century Fox. All hail Liz. Decades of tabloid fodder. All of it an excuse to feature her famous cleavage. Gotta love her.

That’s just it. They have been so well indoctrinated by their IVY LEAGUE Marxist professors that they believe they are in the righteous cause.

That’s why we see them double down, triple down on stupidity.

They literally cannot think for themselves.....................

She’s not just black. She’s unattractive. If she was black and drop-dead gorgeous, guys would have watched.

You jest, but it really is getting that bizarro. And they’re pushing harder and harder lately. Almost like they think or know that they’re running out of time....?

America was turned racist by being force fed diversity.

Their next project will be Superman, played by a retarded Chinese midget trannie in a wheelchair with robotic hands and only speaks Sumerian. It’s expected to be a great Netflix hit!

Did you see the Howard Hughes-produced movie starring John Wayne as Genghis Khan? It was widely ridiculed but I liked it.

Half of the British royals in Bridgerton are black.

Yeah, I noticed this trend a few years ago. I was extremely upset with the Anne Boelyn docudrama from the BBC. She was portrayed by a black woman, as was Henry VIII. Insulting and ridiculous, especially when both of these people have famous oil paintings of themselves and they were NOT black!

When I got a glimpse of the Bridgerton cast, I really was amazed at how many black people were wandering into the high society homes of the elites. Nuts.

The same for Mediterranean peoples - we forget they have an olive cast to their skin tone

Yes, my mother who had Sicilian genes, had that olive skin tone. I, however, got the very pale skin from my Dad's side; however, with medium brown hair with red highlights, like my Mom.
