She wasn't black that's why!! You ought to lay off drinking so much. From Wiki.

Cleopatra VII, the last active Hellenistic ruler of the Macedonian-led Ptolemaic Kingdom of Egypt, has caused debate in some circles. There is a general consensus among scholars that she was predominantly of Macedonian Greek ancestry and minorly of Iranian descent (Sogdian and Persian).

Oh, please. And btw - that's just one of about 1,000 examples of white people playing minorities in Hollywood.

How do you judge a long term plan?

For instance if it is clear XYZ segment in a society is GROWING (lets use Asians) but they are not the majority yet, is it wrong for a company to start marketing to them before they are majority even if a bigoted part of their current consumers will cry and cry and cry that they want ALL the focus and its 'woke' to pander to anyone but them?

People who are a lot smarter than you MagaDerps understand companies cannot be trapped in the past and succeed. They must always be pivoting and reinventing to meet FUTURE demand as it shifts.

Poor example. It is well known that the LGBTPDQRSTUVW+ market is a tiny segment of the whole. While there are many liberal arts majors who have been indoctrinated in that bullshit and believe differently, they often are now in positions to make marketing decisions--bad ones. They are finding that the public as a whole isn't buying what they're selling. Instead of acceptance they are getting massive pushback.

Sex may sell, but gay sex doesn't have much of a market for it.

What is clear is that the younger people growing up (age 30 and below) value tolerance and inclusion far more than those older do.

Corporations are not stupid. They see the opportunity to pander to this by flexing how tolerant and inclusive they are. That is the woke pandering you cry about.

The big difference is i do not deny Hollywood and TV and Nike and Bud are all woke pandering. They ARE.

I just point out they have ALWAYS woke pandered but for the prior 100 years it was almost all directed at White Males so none of you cared.


Bollywood woke panders to Indian's (mostly males) because they have the most disposable income for choices. And that is fine. That is Capitalism.
Hollywood for over 100 years woke pandered to white males as they had almost all of the disposable income and made the most choices and that is fine as that if Capitalism.

As PoC and Women are gaining disposable income and making more choices Hollywood and corporations will take a PART of their woke pandering away from white males mostly and direct some to them and that is fine, as that is Capitalism.


BUt we know white males, in particular will cry at every stage with their complaints that it need to be 'about them and them only' that 'only we should be woke pandered to'. That is how deep their entitlement goes.
 
The LGBT issue is where social conservatives and social liberals

impressively demonstrate

how they can both be completely wrong at the same time.

The former refuse to accommodate abnormality,

the latter attempt to normalize abnormality

and because of it,

neither side gets anywhere in trying to mitigate whatever problem may come up.

Typing in all upper case is commonly used by online hustlers to try to grab your attention.

Shouting in all upper case is considered inappropriate and bad net-etiquette, pendejo.

Try to do better.

The real problem with the idea of having to include diversity and inclusion in everything is that it is forcing a fake narrative, or one that detracts from the story on it. Taken to it's logical, and absurd, conclusion, Disney should have included some fat mermaids, ugly mermaids, etc., in the mix to show their dedication to inclusion and diversity. It all takes a story and just destroys it.

But that's how the Left rolls. They have the crapper touch...

Go woke. Go broke.

Nobody but the Left likes the Left, and if being politically correct to the Left is your business model you just cut up to 80%+ of the population out of it.

Terry's racism example #9: In Trumpspeak "woke" means "nigger lover", "fag lover" and "Mexican lover".

I already did. I put a list of the top 10 money makers in remake movies. The top two cleared a billion +. Even the bottom end ones more than doubled the take of this version of the Little Mermaid.

Terry's bigotry isn't confined to hating only African-Americans; he's an equal opportunity bigot who hates Mexicans, Gays, Feminists and, basically, anyone who isn't a Euro-American male.

Disney changed my favorite kids movie by having dark skinned mermaids!

I was flabbergasted that middle aged, overweight men would go on the internet to cry about the skin tone of a mythical mermaid in a children's movie.

It's because they're impotent, cranky old geezers who blame minorities* for their age, finances and suck-ass life.


*minorities in Trumpspeak is anyone who isn't a Euro-American male.
