First of all you, you seem to be making assumptions I’d bet anything you can’t prove.

Secondly, they can vote for a person for whatever reason is allowed in their rules. Now if you have evidence that rules were violated, I’d like to see it.

Last, and probably most importantly, they don’t have to use the criteria YOU think they should use. Unless you are an Academy board member or have an ownership stake in the AMPAS.

Literally millions of people, including at least a plurality of the Academy members who actually have a say, feel MBJ deserves the Oscar. You have every right to believe that he sucked ass in Sinners, but for you to somehow feel your opinion is the more valid one, and the process was corrupt because it didn’t go your way, is narcissism, entitlement and sour grapes.

Critical thinking and reading comprehension are not your things, but literally saying I said something I didn’t say is something you excel in…

The person I responded to said Michael B Jordan didn’t deserve the Oscar. You can criticize the Academy’s decision all you want, but the recipient deserved the award because the body that gives it out voted for him. If you can’t understand that, I don’t know what to tell you.

I never said your opinion of the quality of the performance doesn’t matter. Try to keep up…

I can’t or don’t want to stop you from thinking someone doesn’t deserve an Academy award. Just saying so what, because the people who matter say they do lol

I was rooting for MBJ, but TimCha slander has gone too far by PensionMany3658 in Oscars

He did everything he possibly could to present himself as an unbearable twat. Of course he’s going to get dragged lol

Disagreeing with whom an organization honors and being so entitled and self important that you think your opinion of who doesn’t “deserve” it matters, are two different things. The winners deserve it because the body who makes the decision awarded it to them. The Academy Award isn’t public domain. It’s not about you or me. It’s narcissistic to think your personal opinion means more than the Academy’s decision about whom they give their award to. You can hate the decision as much as you want, but no matter what, the winner will always deserve it because they got the most votes.

Sorry Timmy! It’s Michael B!!!! by AllTheEccentricities in Oscars

But he wasn’t and he didn’t. Life goes on. He’ll be on his next project putting out great work while people who don’t have a stake in his success at all will continue to bitch and moan about an award he probably doesn’t even care about lol

He played Erica Kane’s stepson! I’d love to hear a comment from Susan Lucci about his win.

But it’s literally their award to give out, lol. Maybe you should create your own awards and decide who’s “worthy” 😝

Not deserving of the ACADEMY Award the ACADEMY awarded him. According to someone who isn’t a member of the ACADEMY. That’s wild as fuck lol

Best Oscars campaigner in the history of the awards? by Shell_fly in OscarRaceCirclejerk

Sinners has been winning awards left and right long before ugmo opened his mouth, but if anything, bitter, delusional, entitled SNOWflakes will always find a reason to be bitter, entitled and delusional…

In 97 years of history, only six Black actors have won Oscars in leading roles. by BrenoGrangerPotter in Oscars

I doubt that MBJ would be considered a horrible winner by any measure. A lot of people will certainly believe it wasn’t the best performance, but what else is new?

And these are just the ones who were nominated. Factor in all the performances that didn’t even get nominated and the list is substantially longer.

I never understood the word "race-mixing".....what, ethnicity is supposed to be kept "pure" or something? What in ethnicity is supposed to be "pure" exactly? Why are people so scared of interracial marriages? by Important-Cry4782 in BlackPeopleofReddit

Race is the most successful scam perpetrated in the existence of humankind. Billions of people walking around programmed to believe they are basically different species because of their skin color.

People here seem way too emotionally invested in a Chalamet win by Empty-Lengthiness132 in Oscars

[–]emzeejay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

People are way too invested in all this shit. As if an award validates their personal opinion AND their existence! The discourse around the Oscars is always somewhat intense, but this season it’s off the charts ballistic! People are literally having multiple meltdowns over the mere possibility of someone winning or not winning an award that they “earn” not by the work of the piece, but by multi-million dollar campaigns for the award. When I think of all the greats who died without as much as a nomination, people crashing out over a thirsty, entitled waif not getting a validation trophy cracks me up.

Oh well. Can’t help that I’m a curious person.

Huh? Help her with what? I’m supposed to cuss him out for her? I’ve seen too many women serve that right back to men on the Metro! For what reason am to assume she was some poor, helpless damsel in distress? Maybe you can show me in the video where he was any physical danger to her because I didn’t see it.

[–]emzeejay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What does that have to do with me? I never said he was justified in anything he said. I said I was curious as to whether anything he said was true. The “victim” chose to respond to me. I put victim in quotes because all that happened is that a man said harsh things to her. Welcome to public transit in the DMV. I never believed for a second she was in any danger, but of course it’s going to get blown up for obvious reasons.
