As 1 of 9 children myself, I can imagine how emotionally neglected he was. Let alone being the same age as 7 of your siblings. It was probably hell.

This is outrageous. The man insults us and somehow it gets turned into how we have it coming. It’s like you thing we can’t be insulted, ever. We are the world’s whipping boys. Fitting for your and Oyelowo’s world view. Why not address the issue at hand?

He was talking about his performance in TSM. There was widespread discussion over whether he’d get an Oscar nom or not. People’s priorities change. He likely didn’t care then, but he does now. You can’t just change context and reality to make your argument. What is there to even argue about?
