oh this fucking bullshit again
“I DON’T KNOW BUT” let me air my bullshit, uninformed and unsupported opinions again.
let’s start with the racist part first.
1. BETWEEN BC AND MF, ONE OF THEM ACTED IN A MARVEL MOVIE WITH A BLACK DIRECTOR, AND MAJORITY BLACK CAST AND CREW, THE OTHER ONE ACTED IN A MARVEL MOVIE WITH A WHITEWASHED MAJOR SUPPORTING ROLE. CAN YOU GUESS WHO ACTED IN WHICH?
2. I guess all these people must be stupid then hanging out with a racist asshole who secretly hates them. Except for yellow hat lady the rest aren’t even people who worked on black panther with him.
3. During the black panther press tour, Daniel Kaluuya and Winston Duke were asked “what was the blackest thing they did off set”. Their answer: “Martin Freeman on the drums.” In another interview, the same two guys again say “Martin Freeman is a G”, “He’s gone native. Ask for his password”, then agreed with the interviewer’s statement that Ryan Coogler had only directed one white guy (Andy Serkis) in the movie and not two.
4. THIS interview with Danai Gurira. I guess for a “racist” he didn’t do a very good job of raising his son to think like him. (gif source, video source)
5. In his own words “Two-tone and Catholicism were my twin religions” What is two-tone? “Two-tone or 2 tone is a genre of British popular music of the early 1980s that fused traditional Jamaican ska music with elements of punk rock and new wave music.” often represented by:
Its name derives from 2 Tone Records, a record label founded in 1979 by Jerry Dammers of The Specials, and references a desire to transcend and defuse racial tensions in Thatcher-era Britain; many two-tone groups, such as The Specials, The Selecter, and The Beat featured a mix of black, white, and multiracial people.
6. Says he spent his teenage years “finding fault with everybody and accusing every single person of constantly being a racist homophobe.” OH THE FUCKING IRONY.
7. THIS BLOG POST covers this topic and a bit more.
“So saying a word to point out that you don’t like to hear it and there was a time when people knew that it was an inappropriate word to call people; that’s not racist. If anything it’s the opposite of racist. What he’s saying is, “as a white man, I find this word to be inappropriate, and yet there it is.” He probably shouldn’t have called it “gangsta rap” and using the word was inappropriate, but that’s all it was. Inappropriate, not racist… This is primarily because it’s white people saying these things about him while ignoring actual PoC who are telling them that what he’s saying is not technically racist. It would be one thing if he were saying that word to someone, or was saying that that word was okay to say. He’s doing the opposite and saying that he finds it annoying that it’s there.”
so anyways moving on.
8. I guess Sir Ian Mckellen doesn’t know how to judge a person’s character since he considers Martin a friend. Or MF is such a great actor and pretender that he can fool him. Look at that little homophobic bastard SNUGGLING up to a gay man who’s been out since the fucking 80s.
9. On one of the Hobbit red carpets, Stephen Fry tickles his neck when passing, Martin just turns around to blow him a kiss. Thought a homophobe would have been more likely to throw a punch instead but what would I fucking know right?
10. Let’s all look at him being phobic with Mark Gay-tease(???)
11. Again another infamous MF quote. “We’re all are a bit (bi) aren’t we… Don’t give me labels.” Among whole other bunch of “Proof that Martin is Bi” posts which I honestly can’t even be bothered to search and link.
12. Has NEVER ONCE cringed or criticized or complained despite being shown very graphic and very gay fanart on talk shows NUMEROUS times. Has also been sent/given physical copies of fanart, has admitted to looking it up himself online, and has also shown said fanart to Benadryl Cumberpants. HE LITERALLY DOES NOT MIND THE GAY.
I’m sure some geniuses might bitch about these not proving anything. Yeah sure, fine, don’t believe me, what the fuck do I know JUST I’m a biased fan anyway. It’s still a fuck load more evidence than people bother to bring up while they’re slandering him.
Honestly if people want to start slinging shit at actors they should actually look into them and maybe not start the sentence with “Idk but”
did something happen??
Literally nothing happened except a particularly brainless twat who fancies themselves a social justice warrior but who just parrots what they heard without any attempt to verify information or apply any critical thought.
Initial tweet was when blm first started going viral and by some idiotic reasoning ONLY these 4 white actors needed to speak up to rid the world of racial injustice. Took them one month to become an “expert” on the topic enough to regurgitate one biased and shitty third-hand source from years ago, and at the same time will still start a post with “idk but” and give no valid sources to substantiate a baseless opinion. Also amazing that a month ago they “had no idea”, but now MF has suddenly begun to “RADIATE homophobic and racist energy”. Fucking band wagoner.
Disclaimer that I would have just ignored this tweet if it was a one time thing but I have been seeing this same person tweet the same shit about MF on more than a few occasions now and the “I DON’T KNOW BUT” fucking triggered me.
I could literally rant for hours about why that fucking yfip post being quoted as gospel truth everywhere (referenced in point #7) is full of bullshit allegations but people somehow just love to take it at face value without bothering to analyze any of it critically.
OH WAIT THE SAGA CONTINUES
But FUNNILY ENOUGH
OH LOOK IT’S A DEROGATORY RACIAL TERM IN THE US AND NOT IN THE UK. None of the British definitions are actually even negative. YA KNOW THE UK, WHICH ENGLAND IS A PART OF, WHERE THEY INVENTED ENGLISH?!
BUT YOU SHOULD HAVE KNOWN THAT RIGHT SINCE HE’S THE IDIOT AND YOU ARE NOT?
Just shut your face already you’re just embarrassing yourself at this point.
