HOLLYWOOD STOCK EXCHANGE

THE ENTERTAINMENT MARKET
Because it's a hypothetical example used to illustrate how majority rule works. Why don't you address any of the issues raised by 90% of
opportunities going to 60%? It's very similar to the dynamics in Hollywood today.
And you're missing the point of my comparison. Senators each get one vote in the Senate, regardless of how big or small their state is. The 120,000 votes cast to electing a Senator from Wyoming are of equal value to the 7.75 million votes cast to elect a Senator from California. It's yet another example of how you use your "logic" to play defence rather than to think the issue through. You're guided by your feelings and emotions, not by logic. Obi-Wan is wrong - don't trust your feelings.
I gave it a shot, but I think we're past the point of productive discussion. Thanks for the opportunity to talk this through, I'm more confident and better practised in my arguments now than before.
via SC: Listen to the New Batman Theme from SUPE2 by Junkie XL Feb 05, 10:27
no {nm} Feb 05, 10:35
Deadpool score by Junkie XL. (reminds me, he was robbed of an Oscar nom for MMAX4) Feb 05, 10:39
It's probably because he is a minority, and the academy is "whitewashing" again {nm} Feb 05, 11:29
(Dutch and white) {nm} Feb 05, 11:30
Different but same-same.... {nm} Feb 05, 11:33
show us on the doll where the black person touched you {nm} Feb 05, 11:45
Are you "profiling" or are you saying only black people can be pedophiles {nm} Feb 05, 12:01
He's saying why do you get defensive and feel threatened when marginalized minorities dare to speak up. {nm} Feb 05, 12:11
Funny how you interpret pointing out the hypocrisy in his statements for being “defensive” Feb 05, 14:25
I'am not pretending, we are equal...I believe it and I am saying it...WE ARE ALL EQUAL (why dont you agree?) Feb 05, 15:14
Racism is over, folks because Bleachigo says we're all equal. {nm} Feb 05, 15:17
False Alarm: Some people dont want to let go of the past just yet {nm} Feb 05, 15:21
No, because it's too loud for the old white voters. :o {nm} Feb 05, 11:31
Well I guess that counts out Beethoven and Tchaikovsky then. {nm} Feb 05, 11:56
Pre-existing works are ineligible. :p {nm} Feb 05, 12:06
Oh wait... Feb 05, 11:31
But I thought all whites were American Males??? {nm} Feb 05, 11:59
You can pretend it is a complex problem, but my own belief is simple..."Equality for ALL"..why dont u agree? Feb 05, 14:31
everyone is equal at law. that doesn't mean everyone is treated equally in society {nm} Feb 05, 14:39
read Kurt Vonnegut's Harrison Bergeron to see where this line of thought leads Feb 05, 15:00
so nobody should have equal rights under the law? got it {nm} Feb 05, 15:08
He didnt read it...that sort of thinking is dangerous for the HG {nm} Feb 05, 15:33
If there's anything this story proves, it's that BSmurf is spot on. Feb 05, 18:20
nice {nm} Feb 05, 18:58
Don't you want the artist to be judged by the performance not handicapped or elivated by a curve? {nm} Feb 05, 19:43
You make it sound like the answer is population control based on race. So if we just had an equal amount Feb 05, 20:09
Before you go ape, allow me to rephrase *"your logic and mind differ" Feb 05, 20:15
Only logical conclusion from your statement Feb 05, 20:46
"relatively few opportunities" means that the solution is "create more opportunities", not eliminate minorities. {nm} Feb 05, 21:45
Your argument is in quicksand...so we just need to create more opportunities? So then let's nominate everyone, but.. Feb 06, 07:35
LOL. Why can't you use your powers of logic to come up with a reasonable scenario? {nm} Feb 06, 08:12
The scenario is only conclusion based on YOUR formula. *Checkmate and tag line for the movie included Feb 06, 08:43
How many more movies? K.I.S.S.: "Just give people the freedom to choose for themselves." Feb 06, 10:20
"As many as the market determines" ...What category is that on BOM again? Feb 06, 12:45
Here is your correction "Is exactly what it sounds like it is - unmeasurable" Feb 06, 14:00
Please don't correct my arguments - you've fabricated enough about what they mean. Feb 06, 14:52
Same core point you're avoiding: My own opinion (and yours) is impervious to allegations of "Fabrication" Feb 06, 16:11
I don't think you understand my opinion at all, and it's compounded by your repeated jibes that I'm angry. Feb 06, 17:44
I am trying to understand your opinion (That is why I am still here) but every response just plays back to exclusion Feb 06, 18:05
My perspective is about inclusion, not exclusion. Feb 07, 07:39
Continued Feb 07, 10:32
You should think about the difference between majority and majority rule. I'll try another way. Feb 07, 12:21
Why do you use figures to illustrate your opinion, but can't give me a simple threshold number to measure success? Feb 07, 13:16
Because it's a hypothetical example used to illustrate how majority rule works. Why don't you address any of the issues raised by 90% of Feb 07, 13:41
I appreciate your time. When you have a system that is not based on racial preference, handicapping or exclusion let's talk. Feb 07, 14:14
Stop fighting a "straw-man"!! Nobody is there...EQUALITY FOR ALL {nm} Feb 05, 15:16
I agree JD, that if someone that makes decisions doesn't think we are all equal they will make a bias decision.. Feb 06, 07:46
No one should be forced to choose based on race. Choosing the right actor should be based on opinion not racial bias... Feb 06, 16:33
No problem, simple misunderstanding. To answer your question. Embrace your constitutional right to voice your opinion Feb 06, 18:55
Bleachigo- And if talking doesn't get you anywhere, what would you do if these biases, keep you from getting work? {nm} Feb 06, 20:08
"The only way"? Why does anyone not just "non whites" have to be considered inferior? Feb 06, 19:39
Talking is just usually the way most people (now a days) find a resolution to disagreements, but you could also try Feb 06, 21:01
pick another topic to troll with please {nm} Feb 05, 14:59
1st thing I've liked about the movie {nm} Feb 05, 14:01
