Watch this episode of "The Woke Zone!"
Suddenly, "being on time" and "meeting deadlines" is a bad "white thing." Huh? It goes even further. Perfectionism, professionalism, urgency, and many other "once admired/respected" practices are, at minimum, frowned upon. At maximum, they are cause for attack/cancellation because these are attributes of "white supremacy!" That's insane. And, although we might agree that various cultures have different ideas, practices, and perspectives on "time," (amongst other practices), in the Western World, these are the values that MAKE IT what it is...and many believe that to be "pretty darn good." If you don't want a part of it, please exit the theater! And if institutions like the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, WGA, Disney, and Hollywood in general want to practice DEI, they really can't "Cherry pick." I want heard it said that a teaspoon of sewage put into a barrel of the finest wine renders a barrel full of sewage.
So Again, this inspires another trip into ANOTHER DIMENSION. It must be, right?
Rod: "Yes. You heard that right. Has some sort of spell been cast on Hollywood? Some sort of Black Magic? Apparently. being On Time is a characteristic of white culture, white privilege and some colonial thing. The Academy is all about rewriting the rules that made sense in favor of supporting diversity and inclusion. They’ve already determined that doing a great or even good job is racist, unless everyone is participates, no matter how the outcome deteriorates.
It’s been posited that Different cultures have different meanings of time, politeness, and what it means to be late. And since Disney is a culture in and of itself, this finally may explain why so many Disney films are delayed months or years or never show up at all.
I hope this has been a teachable moment. In the meantime, this white woman has volunteered to humiliate herself in front of you. You’ve entered the Diversity Zone."
