Possible directors include Shaka King, the director of the Black Panthers propaganda flick, “Judas and the Black Messiah”, who \u003Ca href=\"https:\/\/www.bfi.org.uk\/sight-and-sound\/features\/power-people-shaka-king-judas-black-messiah-daniel-kaluuya-lakeith-stanfield-fred-hampton\"\u003Ehad declared\u003C\/a\u003E, “I haven’t needed white people to care about what I do in years now” and “a centrist is, in many ways, more dangerous than a white nationalist, because they’re really silently propping up the system”.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EHBO Max’s’ Between the World and Me includes Alicia Garza, a co-founder of BLM. Garza is one of two BLM co-founders who is at home at Warner Bros. The Warner Brothers Television Group had signed a production deal with Patrisse Cullors: a self-described Marxist.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EThe BLM deal happened the same month that Channing Dungey became the Warner TV chair.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EAs ABC Entertainment boss, Channing Dungey had made the decision to fire Roseanne from her namesake show for comments critical of Obama crony Valerie Jarrett. Dungey jumped to Netflix, bringing along Scandal’s Shonda Rhimes who went on to create “Bridgerton” for Netflix, and worked with Barack Obama’s Higher Ground agitprop production company.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EDungey was one of the signers of the boycott letter.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E“Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor, George Floyd, all those deaths coming in quick succession — I think it’s opened up an entirely different conversation that particularly in Hollywood, coming in the wake of #MeToo, I think everyone is realizing that the business has been built on some systemic wrongs that need to be righted,” Dungey told Variety.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EThe nature of the systemic wrongs in an industry that took Dungey from a production assistant to the destroyer of genuinely talented people like Roseanne may be harder to define. But she’s a symptom of a larger problem at Warner Bros which has gone all in on black nationalism.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EAlong with Dungey and Rimes, Warner Brothers lured away black nationalist director Ava DuVernay with a $100 million deal. DuVernay’s “13th” series for Netflix had falsely accused America of slavery due to the high number of black people convicted of crimes in prison.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EBut Warner Bros also had no problem scraping the very bottom of the black nationalist barrel.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EAfter signing Cullors, it cut a deal with Kimberly Latrice Jones, a BLM activist who made a viral video in \u003Ca href=\"https:\/\/www.rev.com\/blog\/transcripts\/kimberly-latrice-jones-blm-video-speech-transcript\"\u003Esupport of looting\u003C\/a\u003E.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\"There’s a social contract that we all have, that if you steal, or if I steal, then the person who is the authority comes in and they fix the situation.

Dungey described Goff as “a leading voice of moral clarity on critical issues facing our society”.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EIn the rush to elevate anyone shouting about the evils of white people, HBO Max is littered with basement garbage that looks like the work of college students laboring on public access TV.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EYou can find “Random Acts of Flyness”, a typical episode of which is titled, \"They Got Some S___ That'll Blow Out Your Back\". The Terence Nance variety show features a \"family mourning a high-profile case of police violence\" and asks \"does the Second Amendment apply to black people\". One mock commercial features Mad Men’s Jon Hamm touting “White Be Gone” which promises to help those who are suffering “from white thoughts”.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EIn a sign of just how far Warner had toppled its intellectual properties into the gutter of black nationalism, it tried to turn over the Looney Tunes franchise to Nance to direct “Space Jam” with Ryan Coogler, of the anti-police agitprop “Fruitvale Station”, acting as producer. Coogler, who went on to direct Marvel’s black nationalist Black Panther fantasy, also produced “Judas and the Black Messiah” for Warner celebrating Black Panthers leader Fred Hampton.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EBut you can also find HBO pushing “Beah: A Black Woman Speaks” about Communist activist Beah Richards who played a major role in the We Charge Genocide smear to divert attention from Soviet crimes by falsely accusing America of genocide.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EAnd if you thought John Oliver or Stephen Colbert weren’t political enough, Wyatt Cenac's “Problem Areas” is a string of diatribes about racism and social justice. Cenac is a Daily Show veteran who jettisons much of the format and instead lectures audiences about racism.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EHBO Max is struggling to catch up to Netflix, Amazon Prime, and Disney+, but the actual numbers show that it's far behind. While the service claims 44 million subscribers and touts ambitious plans to reach 150 million people by 2025, these numbers are suspect.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EEarlier this year, activations stood at\u003Ca href=\"https:\/\/www.fool.com\/investing\/2021\/02\/17\/take-hbo-max-subscriber-count-with-a-grain-of-salt\/\"\u003E only 17 million\u003C\/a\u003E. HBO Max no longer reports activations making its numbers meaningless. By the spring, AT\u0026amp;T had disposed of HBO Max and the rest of its Warner package by merging the whole mess with Discovery’s programming.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EThe deal also dumps CNN into Discovery under its CEO, Democrat donor David Zaslav.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EWhile AT\u0026amp;T put the best possible face on this move, the $4 billion dollar bet had not paid off. And Warner’s massive investment in black nationalist programming had thoroughly failed.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EHBO Max’s biggest bump came from its decision to dump “Wonder Woman 1984” on the platform at a cost of hundreds of millions of dollars. The movie, starring Gal Gadot, a pro-Israel actress under fire by critical race theory activists, was the antithesis of the new intersectionality. The second biggest came from the Friends reunion: a show under fire for its lack of diversity.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EDespite HBO Max’s massive investment in black nationalism, its successes were all too white.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EWhile all of its big streaming platforms rivals, Netflix, Amazon Prime, Hulu, Disney+, and Paramount+ invested in black nationalist narratives to varying degrees, none did so as belatedly, futilely, and relentlessly as HBO Max which threw away its brand and its future.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EWarnerMedia may have boycotted the Golden Globes, but subscribers boycotted its service.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EWarner bought into Black Lives Matter and built its content brand around militant black nationalism and anti-white racism.

The Communists responded by arresting them.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EThis isn’t the type of story that Lionsgate is likely to tell with an \"an expansive portfolio of feature films\" or even comment on. And if the development of Hengqin Island into a resort, complete with games based on The Hunger Games, involved any forced labor, no one will talk about it.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003ENot that Lionsgate cares.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EBeyond China, it boasts of the Lionsgate Zone in the Motiongate Dubai theme park. The United Arab Emirates and Dubai are as notorious for the use of slave labor as the People's Republic of China. And much of that slave labor involves migrant workers in the construction industry.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EWhen Lionsgate announced \u003Ca href=\"https:\/\/www.themeparkinsider.com\/flume\/201503\/4495\/\"\u003Ethat it was\u003C\/a\u003E bringing The Hunger Games to Dubai, a commenter noted, \"the irony of a hunger games attraction in a city that was built on the back of slave labor.\"\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EThe greater irony is that a torrent of 1619 Project propaganda is about to flow from a movie studio that is comfortable doing business in slave labor states. A Canadian movie studio is going to lecture Americans about how racist their country is while cheerfully moving projects forward in dictatorships where slavery isn’t a historical artifact, but a present day reality.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EThe 1619 Project is only able to exist because it’s a lie. Try and release a movie about China’s real life Hunger Games in the Communist dictatorship and you’ll become an involuntary organ donor. The United Arab Emirates won’t let you release films blasting its ruling families.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EBut Lionsgate knows that in America it can roll out “feature films\" based on the \u003Ca href=\"https:\/\/www.frontpagemag.com\/point\/2020\/06\/1619-project-author-claims-africans-visited-daniel-greenfield\/\"\u003Ederanged ravings\u003C\/a\u003E of a bigot who claimed that white people are \"barbaric devils\" and who insisted that African explorers had traded \"technology\" with the Aztecs, for the entertainment of the elites.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EChina’s undemocratic ruling class wants to maintain its power and only permits nationalistic movies that depict its country as brave, strong, and moral. America’s corrupt ruling class wants to expand its power by shattering the country’s Constitution with false claims of racism.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EBeyond the 1619 Project, Lionsgate made a deal with BuzzFeed to develop \"socially relevant\" movies for millennials. These movies will inevitably accuse Americans of racism while giving the People's Republic of China and the Islamic nations where Lionsgate does business a pass.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EWhile Lionsgate peddles sleazy revisionist history about America’s founding, its own origins go back to Montreal and its Cinépix era when the secret of its success was a pornographic movie about a nun who becomes a prostitute. Valerie innovated the \"genre\" known as “maple syrup porn” while being funded by Canadian taxpayers. And things haven’t changed too much.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EDuring the height of the #MeToo movement, Lionsgate's executive vice president of legal affairs\u003Ca href=\"https:\/\/cms.frontpagemag.com\/fpm\/2019\/10\/only-metoo-stories-hollywood-will-tell-are-about-daniel-greenfield\"\u003E accused it\u003C\/a\u003Es general counsel of assaulting her and trying to make her his slave.

There’s probably a movie in that somewhere.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EBut as CEO Jon Feltheimer said, that’s a history, “you probably never learned in school.”\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EWho better than a Canadian studio doing business in slave labor countries, whose general counsel allegedly was into enslaving women in this country, to tell the 1619 Project story?\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003ELionsgate wants to be in the progressive business because there’s lots of money to be made. The politically correct scolds don’t believe anything they’re preaching. They never did.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EThe Hollywood studios lecturing Americans on their politically incorrect ways turned out to be a den of sexual predators. The only industry that exceeded their abuses of women was the media. \u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EFortunately, Lionsgate was on it, releasing Bombshell, a #MeToo movie, not about Harvey Weinstein, CBS News, NPR, or its own #MeToo problems, but about FOX News.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EThe 1619 Project is more of the same cynical hypocrisy from a partnership mediated by Oprah Winfrey, a billionaire who made a fortune lecturing white people on their racism.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EHer eponymous magazine, O, which has served as a forum for pushing false claims of sexism and racism against her political opponents, is published by Hearst Magazine.
