Netflix released the original show “Supacell” with new and original characters, but in the comments, right-wingers are complaining that the protagonists are black. The film quiet place day one was released and had a black protagonist. The character is new, original and coherent. Quiet Place is set in the USA black people exist in the USA, so what’s the problem? If they are going to complain anyway, then why do they ask to make new characters?

      I would argue that racism is a form of stupidity, so to be racist is to be stupid.

      To think that another human being is lesser because of their race is incredibly stupid.

      Dude might have a high iq but it takes some real stupidity to live a long life and never realize that the color of someone’s skin has no bearing on their character.
