In an interview with Variety, current head of Lucasfilm Kathleen Kennedy said the studio is looking for a female filmmaker to direct a Star Wars movie. Great! She then implied that the process is a slow one because “they’re gigantic films, and you can’t come into them with essentially no experience.” Okay.
“This statement, my friends, is bullshit” No it’s not. This statement, “friend”, is what EQUALITY and MERITOCRACY is all about. You hire the best person for the job. END of fucking story. It matters not whether this person is a man or a woman, so you saying it’s “great” that they are looking for female directors is already anti-egalitarian and inherently sexist. The ONLY thing that matters is that they pick talent. Arbitrary characteristics like race or gender should never be a factor, only moronic bigots pretend otherwise. Who actually wrote this propaganda? Let me guess, another feminist SJW who lacks any shred of self-awareness. The person who wrote this article is in favor of equality of outcome and affirmative action, which comes as no surprise considering she’s against true equality. We should strive for equality of opportunity. Just because there is an inequality, does not mean there is inequity. Again, FUCK this horseshit propaganda and fuck identity politics.

Of course I did… Nothing but feminist rhetoric that “women are soooo poorly treated and meritocracy is unfair”.

You know what? I’m getting pretty goddamn tired of people not being able to say something or have an opinion without someone pointing it out, writing an article about it, or posting, commenting, or whatever about it. It makes me hate this generation. God forbid you have an opinion on something that someone doesn’t agree with bc now, more than ever, you’re going to get singled out and called out on it. Everyone feels like their opinion is so important!!!
