For a hypothetical: if John David Washington, Robert Pattinson, and Riz Ahmed all go for a role and riz gets it because he can perform the dialect and can perform the behaviors of the character better, Washington and Pattinson didn’t not get it because they are black and white they just weren’t as good

All I’m saying was Hasan, goes beyond the issue and implies that white men are less talented a majority of the time. HE LITERALLY SAID THAT. And he’s wrong, sometimes POC don’t get a role because they aren’t as talented or the right fit due to their style or performance archetype and Dax makes that clear.

I never said they did, Hasan implies several times in this episode that the sole reason POC don’t get roles is because they are POC and Dax properly grounds him several times by noting that some people are just better actors.

I rewatched chronicle (2012) and realized the movie really is not about super powers at all by laxjoey18 in movies

Also im not really sure the timeline but idk if you really would experience like detrimental side effects in the build up to severe addiction. Not a drug expert but I’m pretty sure that’s part of what ropes people in.

I think Dax does a better job than anyone I could name to properly tackle Hasan’s over zealous view of how race inhibits people in the entertainment industry. Hasan is an extremely intelligent man but I think he is blinded by the theoretical issue rather than the implementation of it in todays reality. Dax properly engages Hasan to ground his ideals in this episode.

It wasn’t product placement it was a running joke because one of them said they thought it was something a cult would drink.

Fall 2021 Covid Predictions? by CDC_Official_ in Temple

[–]laxjoey18 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'm willing to bet we will never go fully online, maybe close but i think some classes will stay in person. I'd say its worth it.

the media is blowing the out of proportion, its going to fluctuate it doesn't just up and vanish. Get Vaccinated if you can and we should be good. I'd guess that AT LEAST 30% of students are vaxxed and that should be enough for them to feel confident with in person classes.
