The Morning Rant: Minimalist Edition
Except one group has been left out of that diversity shuffle, and now they’re speaking out. Several stars, including “The Morning Show’s” Juliana Margulies, Debra Messing, “Frozen’s” Josh Gad, Mayim Bialik, David Schwimmer, Michael Rapaport and Tiffany Haddish, signed an open letter demanding Jewish inclusion in the new diversity standards.
Demanding to be considered minorities? Demanded inclusion in the victim-hood sweepstakes? Luckily there is at least one actor with a modicum of intelligence. Reliably left-wing Richard Dreyfuss, whose politics are about as left as they go in polite company, actually noticed the profound, malign effect this policy will have on the rapidly decaying "art" of film. Richard Dreyfuss On New Diversity Rules For Oscars: "They Make Me Vomit" And they should!
The rules set by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences will take effect in 2024. When posing the question to Dreyfuss, Firing Line host Margaret Hoover said, "Starting in 2024, films will be required to meet new inclusion standards to be eligible for the Academy Awards for Best Picture. They'll have to have a certain percentage of actors or crew from under-represented racial or ethnic groups."
How is that going to work? If I make a movie about the Holocaust, set in a concentration camp, must I use black actors to satisfy the quota? How about if I make a movie about the West African slave trade? Do I have to use Asian or Hispanic actors? This is a natural progression of a society so mired in equity and inclusion and affirmative action and a dozen other buzzwords that mean nothing other than a complete rejection of the concept of a color-blind society. But it is in some ways a blessing, because it will hasten the collapse of the movie industry by mandating every insane racial/ethnic/sexual group except quality. That's fine with me. Hollywood and the movies they make have been a caustic influence on America for a very long time. It is long past the time that America recognizes that fact and punishes the industry by simply not going to their crappy post-modern, multi-culti indoctrination sessions masquerading as movies.

I'm honestly unclear how Oppenheimer met the rules. No black people, just a couple of Jewish actors here and there. I assume it must have been accomplished with something like "special effects technicians" or something, but it really strikes me as the Academy laying down a rule that they have no intention of applying evenly.
It will be selective enforcement to push out unwanted films, not like it's some huge problem for them right now.

Sorry, guys. You shoulda realized that you're white. Most of you are, of course, and you just managed to kid yourself that somehow you weren't. Then, you managed to kid yourselves that if somehow you did end up being non-white, that you wouldn't be even *lower* in the stack than your non-Jewish white brethren.
This is a dangerous game. You should never have played it.

Why is an obscure dark ages Kingdom of such interest to modern Muslims? Well it is now a common Muslim claim that the people currently identifying as Jews are actually the descendants of the Khazars not the Jews from Israel. That's how they can then turn around and claim Jews are "colonizers" in Israel.
And since Khazaria was more or less in what is now Ukraine those people are "white"

The market is speaking, and speaking loudly. There is an appetite - sometimes - for wokeness, but the product has to be good (see: Barbie) and there is little appetite for shit. Woke tends to be shit, and this kind of nonsense tends to produce shit and do so very consistently.
This is why there is suddenly room in the market for foreign content. I suspect they're going to censor foreign content through trade regulation in order to defend the domestic propaganda industry.

White recruitment collapses in the US army, leading to the smallest military force in 80 years:
2018: 44,042 white recruits
2023: 25,070 white recruits
Turns out that demonizing white people in the Army has consequences.
Not to worry, they'll just recruit illegal immigrants, as the Army reorients from being a military force to being an internal security force.

The Academy released the list of eligible films a few days ago. There are 265. Oppenheimer is eligible. Saltburn is eligible. Tetris is eligible. The Zone of Interest is eligible.
All are heavily white led films (though Tetris has that Japanese wife, so that probably just fits), but The Zone of Interest is a Holocaust movie with only white people.
It's selective enforcement. It's empty virtue signalling.
And for those curious, Sound of Freedom is eligible! But it has as much chance of being nominated as Transformers: Rise of the Beasts, which is also eligible.

...a 2011 post about the institute’s admissions policy acknowledges MIT takes a “holistic” approach to the process.
“Put another way: we are not looking for the thousand students who aced the math SAT. Or the thousand students who won some biology award. Or – for that matter – the thousand students who come from poor, underrepresented backgrounds that make our hearts bleed,” it states. “We are looking for the best mix of all these students who will together constitute a terrific class. And in assembling this class we consider many, many, many factors holistically in our process.”
They do love them some holism.

The member of FairAdmissions@MIT who spoke to The College Fix said MIT’s admissions office “has long put out the story that the female applicant pool is consistently twice as good as the male applicant pool, which explains why the female acceptance rate is double.”
“Yet they have never released SAT scores by gender to back this claim up,” he said. “We challenge MIT to publish a histogram of de-identified, gender-coded SAT data comparing accepted and rejected applicants to see how the male and female curves compare. If they are not willing to publish this data, we will seek it during discovery.”

911 Call Reveals Bad Smell Led to Discovery of ‘Caddyshack’ Actress Cindy Morgan
A recently obtained 911 call recording reveals that Cindy Morgan’s roommate sought assistance before discovering the body of the late actress last month. As per the call published by the New York Post, the unidentified roommate informed dispatchers about a “bad smell” emanating from the room. When the roommate knocked, only the sounds of Morgan’s pets were heard.
Returning to their shared residence in Lake Worth Beach, Florida, on December 30, 2023, the roommate reported not having seen or heard from Morgan in the days leading up to the grim discovery.
Subsequently, the police found the lifeless body of the “Caddyshack” actress in her room. At the age of 69, Cindy Morgan passed away. A spokesperson from the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office told Fox News on Saturday that the actress died from natural causes “a few days ago.”

International Red Cross has been vile for decades. They used to set up starving Mozambique citizens to be rounded up (or slaughtered) by the commie government. They would arrange "aid drops" by plane so all the people gathered for the food, and then the IRC plane would never show up. After being informed how the government was using these events they kept doing the same thing.

Saw it the other day. It's a nice story (curious where they embellished things). But I found it a bit thin - movies where you know the endings are always tough to pull off - Miracle being an example of a movie that really did that well, as well as the Secretariat movie - that got a bit loose with history - but set up the final race of the Triple Crown really well.
I'm not sure there was a superior way to set this up about a rowing competition. But it was enjoyable enough.

The "owning class" is probably anyone with a significant asset they can call their own (house or car). There are a lot of lower-class folks in that category, though. People who inherited their house from their parents and who drive old, busted cars.

I can guarantee you that 90% of prominent white or straight or Jewish or male actors hate this bullshit. It's directly cutting them out of their own industry.
But the thing is - 100% of them have fuck-you money. If that's the way it's gonna be, then for the love of G-d, STAND UP FOR YOURSELF AND SPEAK YOUR MIND.
You have this luxury that virtually nobody else has - to stand up for yourself in a tyranny without fear of starving in a dirty alley for it - and a moral duty to use it for the benefit of the voiceless masses. But you won't use it, because all you care about is seeing your face on yet another screen, and stacking yet another cheesy gold-plated tchotchke on the mantle in your mansion.

Yeah - I know. But unfortunately everything trending in the federal district and SCOTUS says these are all going to die. And don't think that as Ackman decides he has found his hill to die on, and he controls lots of assets and has others on speed dial who control the rest, that it will be easy to even get funding for the dreck they put out. So they will get hauled in and will lose frequently, unless SCOTUS invalidates affirmative action programs before that. In certain states right now, what the Academy requires is already bending towards illegality.

“When you hear someone go, ‘Such and such made $10 million,’ that didn’t make it to their account,” Henson continued. “Off the top, Uncle Sam is getting 50%. Now have $5 million. Your team is getting 30% of what you gross, not after what Uncle Sam took. Now do the math. I’m only human. Every time I do something and break another glass ceiling, when it’s time to renegotiate I’m at the bottom again like I never did what I just did, and I’m tired. I’m tired. It wears on you. What does that mean? What is that telling me? If I can’t fight for them coming up behind me then what the fuck am I doing?”

Here's an interesting article about the disappearance of the much-predicted boomer retirement crisis, in which we'd all be living in a cardboard box under the overpass. In short, it didn't happen, although the article doesn't really explain why. What they do say is that the people pushing the crisis wanted more government control of retirement money. Which, of course, they would never, ever, spend on other things.
Now, suddenly, we're seeing many stories about the impending $78T wealth transfer from boomers to their spawn.

I'm in Sunday school with someone in law enforcement who was discussing this recently. I don't know if it's everywhere, but it's my understanding that in NC the police have to put eyes on the body before it goes anywhere. They can choose to call the detective if something looks strange, but if it's just an old person who died in bed they just call to confirm that it's okay to move forward with the next steps.

Some of that will happen. People do die, and the assets go somewhere. I have no idea if $78T is a reasonable figure or not. I suspect not. That's a huge asset base, amounting to an average of around $1.1 million per person in the cohort. Seems high.
But even if it is true today, the longer the Boomers live, the lower that asset transfer will be (they will consume it as they live, which is the purpose of those assets in the first place). A *huge* amount of that asset base is probably real estate, too, and real estate is a fickle bitch.

But some money is being put in retirement accounts, and lately participation is often automatic. Presumably that's being treated as inaccessible(there are penalties for withdrawal and stuff).

Because it's not a normal distribution, it's two groups. Some people - slightly more than half - can't come up with an emergency $500. The other people - slightly less than half - could easily come up with an emergency $5,000. Damn few people at the division point.
It's because the middle class is vanishing. Or rather, I suppose, it's moving up and shrinking. What used to be the people I called the "near rich" are now the middle class, and the middle class is comparatively becoming poorer.

True, but as the article states, those same Boomers increased their net wealth by $14T during Covid, so there are offsetting trends.
When I was preparing to retire, I did the calculations and knew we'd be fine, but my wife couldn't shake the cardboard box fear, even though in our case that was ridiculous. I think in part it comes down to having lived frugally for decades, and having high expenses when our kids are growing up, she didn't realize just how much less we'd need in retirement. The house is paid off, the kids are grown, and no longer dependent on you for food, clothes, incidentals, and college, you're no longer driving to work.

News Flash: 73 year old woman looks like a grandma. My guess is she would, like many actresses her age, look downright scary if she had plastic surgery. Instead, she seems to have aged gracefully, like billions of women have.

wut ? you don't think Jews know or "realized" they are white ??? maybe what you are trying to say , liberal Jews did not think that blacks do not consider Jews a minority.

Ackshewallee and weirdly, a goodly number of Jewish folk, some who are whiter than an Icelandic-Irish hybrid red head, do not consider themselves "white" but a different race entirely.
About a year ago, some moron got all shouty and upset and pissed himself and shat himself sideways and screamed, "No. No. That's not true! That's impossible!" and dropped down a large tube to an antenna outside the floating cloud city he was on until a spaceship came and took him away.
Even weirder, in the end, he was even making the same type of arguments that Hitler himself would've made.
It was hilariously sad. Very sad.

Redemption is always possible. Dreyfus admitted later in an interview that when he won the Oscar at an early age for Goodbye Girl that mentally he was telling himself "Too soon". Was pretty frank about how that led to substance abuse from trying to match that performance which led to his car accident.
There are a lot better targets in Hollywood to direct one's ire than Dreyfus nowadays and many of them sit in corporate positions.

It's apparently a thing that Jews consider themselves non-white, even when they're whiter than fresh printer paper. I recently finished Rush singer/bass player Geddy Lee's autobiography and he says matter of factly that all the Jews in Toronto considered non-Jewish Canadians to be "white people" while they were not. I didn't know that was a thing but it explains much about JINOs.

This is good news. I expected this from DeWine, though. Complete GOPe, detached from the Republican voters' wishes.
I do wonder though if the vaguely worded constitional amendment Ohio voters just passed secure the right to abort a baby at 9mos gestation will allow the Ohio SC to overrule the law as being unconstitutional.

They do that to compete with other women and actresses (and actors to be honest) traditionally have a lot of anxiety issues. Hollywood is pretty cruel to signs of aging and more so to women than men. High Definition TVs etc make any imperfections more apparent than years gone by.

I have a big problem with white vs people of color. Most people in Mexico are very white even many natives. Do they use a Pantone chart or something to determine how white or colored you are? People in India vary in color all over the place. My doctor is from India and she is white, but others from India can be very black.

Nope. Not at all. That' was not the argument.
He was arguing for race. Jews were a different race entirely. That's why he eventually was making Hitlerian arguments.

If some studio genius is making, let's say, a Holocaust film, they won't worry about the ACTORS. They will go nuts and hire DEI crew. And to make it easier, they will offshore production to some third-world country. So, even American "minorities" won't get the jobs. But the third-world film industry will rake in the moolah! Look for Poland in films to look suspiciously like sub-Saharan Africa in the future. Though they may go for Greenland with its indigenous population....

Yes. And have them be the Nazi officers.
"How about if I make a movie about the West African slave trade? Do I have to use Asian or Hispanic actors?"
Yes. And have them be the slaves, with the ship captains, selllers, and buyers played by blacks and American Indians, and no white people at all.
Ram the "representation" down their throats until they choke on it.
