>Snoop Dogg has no plans to watch the Roots remake, and he's telling his fans to also boycott the show.

>The rapper sent out his message over social media on Monday.

>"I'm sick of this shit. How the f— are they going to put Roots on, on Memorial Day?" Snoop said in an Instagram video. "They going to just to keep beating that shit into our heads about how they did us, huh?"

>The History channel's revival is a four-part, eight-hour series that debuts Monday.

>Snoop said he has no interest in new shows and movies — specifically mentioning 12 Years a Slave — that "keep showing the abuse we took hundreds and hundreds of years ago."

>"I ain't watching that shit, and I advise you motherf-—ers as real n— like myself; f— them television shows," Snoop said. "Let's create our own shit based on today, how we live and how we inspire people today. Black is what's real. F— that old shit."

>The original series, based on Alex Haley's Pulitzer Prize-winning novel, debuted on ABC in 1977.

Never thought Snoop would say anything more profound than "smoke dat weed nigga" but he's totally right. History is important, but if you live in the past it can screw up your perspective on the now. All these white guilt slavery movies only engender more anger on both sides and makes the white people in support look like two-faced pussies. It doesn't really help anyone

Operation Long Jump – A rumoured attempt to assassinate the "Big Three" (Stalin, Churchill, and Roosevelt) during the 1943 Tehran Conference.
Operation Knight's Leap (Unternehmen Rösselsprung, May 1944) – An attempt to capture Josip Broz Tito alive.
Operation Armoured Fist (Unternehmen Panzerfaust a.k.a. Unternehmen Eisenfaust, October 1944) – The kidnapping of Miklós Horthy, Jr., son of Hungarian Regent, Admiral Miklós Horthy, to force Admiral Horthy to resign as head of state in favor of the pro-Nazi leader of the Arrow Cross Party, Ferenc Szálasi.
Operation Griffin (Unternehmen Greif, December 1944) – A false flag operation to spread disinformation during the Battle of the Bulge.

Thank fucking god for that. The only way to get studios to stop making shit is to stop financing it with your ticket sales. People are so obsessed with having their opinion about a new movie they'll pay for any shit to keep up with pop culture. I'm relieved we finally have people saying to stop going, to stop talking about and to stop allowing it to happen.
If you go see a movie like GB 2016 just to shit on it you're just as bad as the people who like it

I can quite literally only recall two movies about slavery in thw past 5 years that I both heard about and watched.

So, should we never make a film about slavery again? Pretty sure that's mostly how people start forgetting their own history. It is also shit like this that gets Kansas (or whichever state it was) to change the word "slave" in their history textbooks

This pushback against depicting slavery in film is fear mongering knee jerk responses making a non-issue into a an actual issue. And when you live in a country where most don't even believe in basic science and some are even retarded enough to think the planet is flat, perhaps the very last thing you should do is stop talking about history

You are now projecting and just calling me a liberal despite:

A) not knowing if I'm actually liberal
B) perpetuating the meme that liberals are bad or that the entire political ideology is bad

Please let this meme die, thanks Reagan and the neoconservatives for ruining the internet now

What do you know about that past? Do you realise the federal voting rights act has been repealed? That voting rights return to the states' rights' field, just as it was in the 60s? Correction: UP UNTIL the 60s?

And what mistakes are we avoiding? How do you picture aversion of mistakes in your head? That soldiers don't take muskets into fights anymore? That metropolae don't call their colonies "colonies" anymore?

How else do you expect people to learn if not from their own and other's mistakes? That's human nature to learn from past experience. Why do you think people don't live in filth anymore and throw their shit into the streets? Because we learned from our mistakes, investigated the problem, and fixed it.

you know what he's right

we all need to let go of the anger and hurt. i mean, i think that's the spirit of his message, interpreting it charitably. i can't be sure if that's his intent, but overall i think this is meant to be a message of love and unity. at the visceral level, i instantly felt the opposite way: like what the fuck is this? but, on a brief moment's contemplation it seemed like he's trying to be positive; optimistic even. look at how many people he's trying to reach - trying to make understand that slavery should not have a hold over us. i feel anxious even thinking about the subject; and that movie 12 years a slave made me feel ridiculous, in retrospect - what could i do but laugh when hearing 'run nigger run'? i suspect watching roots, remake or original, would have a similarly negative impact and put into people's minds that they're still being subjugated today - that they cannot rise up.
>>
>>70232674
Why can't I say history is important and also say that overly focusing on the past is bad for you? Being caught up in the past is a negative thing if you can't even see where you are now. I never said bringing it up is bad, but bringing it up constantly and not seeing how things changed is bad. If you're stuck in the past you can't ever move forward, but you can't move forward until you know your past.

"been used to getting spoonfed by your teachers and your asswipers"

You've repeatedly said that what you are taught is either bullshit, doesnt matter or incorrect...this is your main point.

Your main point is never further fleshed out and just continues to sound incredibly retarded, mostly because you are assuming that since you've rejected what your teachers taught you, that this makes you...what...smarter than people who are actually educated?

You don't know me nigger. White people going on and on about muh heritage and muh aryan blood are just as fucking stuck in the past as anyone. It's equally unhealthy to look back on past accomplishments and never move forward just happy with what came before.
A white stormfaggot taking credit for all the things whites have done are just as deluded as black who thinks hes still a slave because his forefather's were.

Good fucking luck. With all these shitty 'me-too' video games going back to historical garbage you can bet your ass hollywood is going to capitalize on it and push out more turds.

I blame Saving Private Ryan and Enemy at the gates for destroying the FPS genre beyond salvation. Only thing that's saved the movie industry is their unyielding desire to push PG-13 movies for access to the largest possible audience.

Historical shit ruins everything because no one ever tries to make it good. I think the last decent war movie we got was Gettysburg.

Despite this being the logic of some retarded 12 year old, I guess liberal policies like social security, voting rights, roads, free drinkable water, medicaid, medicare, civil rights legislation, public schools and public libraries are all "bad", right retard?

No? I was talking about European civilization and the many white scientists who added to our knowledge of the natural world. The kinds of things stormfaggots like to pretend they have some connection to despite being lazy internet warriors. I don't pretend that I have some noble aryan blood which gives me superiority over anyone because some people who look like me did some important things in the past.
People can be good, and people can be bad. Again, please point out where I said colonialism and slavery were positive things or accomplishments. See I read history and came to the conclusion subjugation of human beings is bad, especially for just profit and wealth.

yes, let's see how good you 'll be if everybody rejected you first glance without even wanting to get to know you, did the same thing to your parents and all your ancestors and nobody expected you to finish school and would consider it natural for you to behave absurdly and generally treated you like a scapegoat for all the faults of the official narrative.

I think it's stupid because we have so much world history that could be put into film or a video game. But we never do it. We put the same 3 settings into nearly every war game. What if we had an FPS in the Civil War? Or the Barbary Wars? Imagine wiping out a line of fucking Rebs with a Gatling gun. Or storming a fucking fortress. Instead we have dozens of fucking WW2 movies and video games. Or Vietnam. I'm so sick of fucking Vietnam war games. It's so overdone.
