Watch out guys. The hyper-woke people have published their think pieces. Black Panther is RACIST.
>In 2018, a world home to both the Movement for Black Lives and a president who identifies white supremacists as fine people, we are given a movie about black empowerment where the only redeemed blacks are African nobles. They safeguard virtue and goodness against the threat not of white Americans or Europeans, but a black American man, the most dangerous person in the world.
>Even in a comic-book movie, black American men are relegated to the lowest rung of political regard. So low that the sole white leading character in the movie, the CIA operative Everett Ross (Martin Freeman), gets to be a hero who helps save Wakanda. A white man who trades in secrets and deception is given a better turn than a black man whose father was murdered by his own family and who is left by family and nation to languish in poverty. That’s racist.
>It is fair to wonder whether the movie merely reflects the racial politics of the comic books that serve as its inspiration. Yes and no. In the movie, Killmonger’s relationship to T’Challa is as the comic-book canon portrays it. Killmonger is a deadly killer in the comics as in the movie, but he is also extremely intelligent, studying at MIT to understand the technology he goes on to deploy. In the movie, Killmonger’s only skill is killing; if Coogler intended to make Killmonger a hood-born genius, he has failed badly.

of course it is, also it is double-standard if cast had white skin, critics would say it's most racis movie ever, maybe they would ban it from screening too. Disney is evil two-faced bastard, when people wake up and see it
Cooper Smith
i mean theyre right coogler said in an interview that black people are genetically predisposed to enjoy barbeques and watermelon bruh weve been saying that for years

basically this how many tunes do we need to have this thread?
Charles Wright
It's just like that old expression, "niggers can't be choosers"
Would like to clarify this is NOT Cred Forums tier arguments.

replies like this should be banned

>'Killmonger' wants to liberate blacks everywhere but dies dat racis Isn't his liberation plan basically just white genocide? Sounds like Killmonger might be the racist here.

No

Is the left just killing itself?

>Black Panther is RACIST. Can never, EVER win.
Dylan Sullivan
not quite
Carter Hill
clearly we must audit every movie through a panel of relevant academic scholars then re-produce the whole movie to adjust and maybe repeat this process 2-5 times until it's right
Kayden Harris
>only redeemed blacks are African nobles
Killmonger has the most honorable death in the film. Coupled with the sympathetic narrative track.
All critics should be lit on fire.

What did he mean by this?
Nolan Brooks
The method of his death redeems his moral choices? What?
Joseph Campbell
>Cred Forums MADE YOU SAY THIS! but back on topic
this is why i hate this movie. not because the production was good-or-bad, but because media has decided to cater to needy individuals who will never satisfy their need
Juan Powell
>9 shares why do these threads keep on being posted?
Christian Long
Actually, yes. That was his plan.
Alexander Jones
No, the perception of him in the eyes of the protagonist does. Thats what makes his sunset death honorable. T’Challa sees the good in him and the story forgives him.
Parker White
I can't believe something this funny is able to exist. You could legitimately bring this up on your phone and run around in the forest killing germans with it.
Aaron Baker
enslavement != genocide
Ian Fisher
I'm disappointed he didn't mention the pan-African cultural blackface, but he's American and doesn't know any better.
He said he was gonna murder the oppressors and their children The dudes motivation was taken straight out of a black American who’s a crybaby about slavery
Dylan Gray
let me add the mutts

This is unironically correct though >hero is a feudal king who lives in a technological paradise while the continent is the least developed in the world >teams up with the CIA to stop a "villain" who wants to spread that technology to the rest of Africa >in the end he builds a YMCA in Oakland to feel better about himself while Africa continues to suffer Why do black people think this is woke?
