F.d. signifier talks about this in one of his videos. Don’t remember which and can’t find it. But as I recall his take was that it’s weird to be OK with playing a hyper-racist slaver right up until you have to say the n-word. Not to say DiCaprio is a bad person or whatever, but it’s a good point.
what point it that exactly, people have a limit to what things they can force themselves to be comfortable with while play acting? this is faux intellectualism and buffoonery writ large lol
That it’s a mirror for the way white liberals behave. Obsess over language while ignoring structural racism & denying material benefits to black people.
This reply is not for the person I’m replying to; I thought someone else stumbling on this might want clarification but I’m not continuing a discussion with someone who throws insults at me.
