Reply to this comment with your DEI horror stories. Other movie / TV examples, any industry or (most importantly), DEI you have personally witnessed. Thank you!
Not DEI but I do remember nobody wanting to work with a brown guy in university because he always came to classes late and was generally thick as shit, and he claimed it was racist that nobody was enthusiastic to do a group project with him lol
@@DespotofAntrim My cousin is a straight white male and the smartest person in the family. Highly disciplined, talented and educated. Last year he got laid off from his job and the reason he was given was that he did nothing wrong but they needed a non-white person in the role. He worked for a university here in Canada, has a masters degree and the job is now being done by an East Indian high school graduate.

Christopher Lee had an acting career that spanned 7 decades.His net worth when he died, was 25 million.Phoebe Waller Bridge does a sitcom that gets a few million viewers and gets a 60 million contract.Somethings wrong there.
yeah that makes me laugh. like if youre making a show based in greece, why is a huge portion of the army…oh…i dont know not white? of course if you point it out, you will be accused of racism, whej in reality they are the racist ones for trying to push the false narrative that ancient greece is as ethnically diverse as modern america. and the sheer hypocrisy, they’d never pull this move if the show took place in africa.

The analytical truth bomb on the caste system that is DEI is yet another cathartic moment I find myself rewinding to hear again and again. Well done, Despot!
It all started with "Political Correctness" in the late 1980s. Just like the boiling frog analogy, the temperature has slowly been rising since until we're where we are now.
The problem was that they were judged on the content of their character all along. it was never about the skin colour. The skin colour was just an easy way of identifying them. No one cares if they are black or purple or polkadot. We just don't want to be around cannibals.
Maybe that's better for now. He is the best that you can take from little platoon, critical drinker (when he was in prime) and tbys while also adding a lot of good own creativity. He is a gem that should be protected until he gets clone on odysee and/or rumble. Otherwise he will be attacked by toxic and hateful Twitter/tiktok "folks" and deplatformed, because he is mostly saying truth even if sometimes I disagree with some of his opinions
I absolutely love how this longform date section of all the travesty involving DEI in the industry is interrupted in the middle for a tirade where you just completely rip the strokes to shreds. Absolutely fantastic.
Reversing racism doesn't undo the past. All the hatred towards middle aged white men is the very definition of ageism, racism, and sexism. Love your channel. Keep fighting the good fight!
Exactly. Equity claims you can lift up black people to make up for what was done to them in the past by the same rich families that give us all miserable lives now. It's targeting the poor for the sins of the rich, just like climate fascism.
And so the Despot returns to face down possibly the greatest disaster Disney Star Wars has unleashed upon the world. He will stand against this terror and strike it down with great intelligence and furious critique as he lays his judgment upon it.
@@DespotofAntrim hey friend, love you content. lemme ask your opinion on this... do you agree with oscar wilde that the critic and art criticism is the superior artist/form of art, or do you believe the artists themselves hold that accolade? curious what a skilled, modern day critic might think of this issue.
Even though I have never watched Brendan Schaub’s stand-up, I can guarantee the Despot’s usage of Schaub’s annoying noises caused more laughter than all of Schaub’s jokes combined.
Blue Beetle also hiring a brazilian actress to try to appeal to fans of her (the few that are still left because no one really cares about her that much now) in Brazil was such an obvious marketing stunt that everyone skipped on the film. Lol
I was depressed because I was like "I have no videos or anything :(" and then I decided "screw it I will rewatch this one" _and when it started playing I realized I had somehow never finished the last 2/3rds_ [Ode to Joy begins in background]
The subversion of the “Damsel in Distress” trope has become the norm, now it would be total subversion to actually HAVE the male hero rescue the woman! I would be shocked!
In Pat and Mike Charles Bronson and goons corner Tracy and Hepburn, Kate then proceeds to kick Bronson's behind. She does it again once the law arrives, demonstrating to them what happened. Pat and Mike came out in 1952.
I don't think the industry to promote good relationships between men and women. Like love stories. Because men and women loving each other and having families would be bad for the environment.

Currently there is also the fact that Lightsabers are not dangerous at all. If it was a proper star wars movie Kylo Ren would be either dead or severely disfigured, the guy taking a lightsaber to the face and only getting a scar is unbelievable

"headlands wife is so bad at acting she couldn't act her way through her own front door acting as Leslie headlands wife" I haven't laughed that hard for a while.
Jennifer Salke also cancelled the Conan-The Barbarian series, that Ryan Kondal was working on. Kondal is a big fan of the original Conan stories by Robert E. Howard and the script was supposedly very good, according to some people who read it. Kondal than jumped ship to HBO MAX and wrote/ produced House of the Dragon, which is a huge hit with audiences and critically acclaimed. Imagine, we could have had a well written, mature Conan series with great production values. Instead we got shite like Rangz of Power & that abysmal Wheel of Time show....
You can get way better writing anywhere else other than Hollywood. I literally seen better structured, more coherent, complex and awesome writing, and characters done by fans than the actual writers.
'Sacrifices must be made for the greater good' is the message they push, coming from people that are overpaid, under-talented, and completelt oblivious to what it take to live a REAL life. I firmly believe they are projecting, to the nth degree.

On a serious note, dei has ruined and is ruining western culture and its economy, it is destroying society and I applaud your courage and hard work documenting this. Keep up your brilliant work.
You ain't lying. What's really crazy is that the only people clamoring for DEI are rich white people. I've never once heard a black, Asian or Latino person say anything about being underrepresented in movies and TV, without someone else bringing it up. Real people worry about real things that actually impact their lives. People who have time to count how many non white people are in a movie are people who have plenty of money. There aren't too many of those

One note: they didn't just turn the damsel in distress into "girl boss don't need no man", but they went further and created the "MANsel in distress trope"
Both Jim Rash and Brie were in Community. A show that approached diversity with its tongue firmly in its cheek. They made constant jabs at diversity being used for monetary or social gain. It was both actually diverse and was aware of how diversity was used to manipulate. Now they are both fully riding that band wagon all the way to Hell.

DEI isn’t just destroying films & TV- it’s wrecking most of our economy. We just can’t see it happening as clearly. Just a gradual decrease in quality and more airplanes falling from the sky.
You know what is funny? They are also pushing for DEI hirings even in Brazil, even among a mostly biracial population DEI practices are now being pushed everywhere (in this case where most of the population is already non white, they are pushing for more of the XX to get the jobs that were usually male dominated). Amazing.
Jesus Christ, I have to pause and have a break after that whole Brendan Shaub section, you made me laugh so much I could barely catch my breath. Amazing work, Despot.
because those two things will be what ruins society as we know it (no matter how nice they appear), the inclusion is added to make it look good (wich it absolutely fails at) i'd recommend respecting people over being woke, you don't even need the latter to do the former
@@TheScrootch non sequitur. Just because something was filmed 30 times in a row does not magically make costumes bought with a 300 million budget disappear. Your point does not follow logic.
Despot, I'm surprised you didn't include Eternals, probably the MCU's most DEI by design film. Not only were the characters altered to suit the DEI hire cast ( hint, guess which ethnicity and sexual orientation turns out to be the villain) but Chloe Zhao, who won an Oscar for a low budget fill about Frances McDormand urinating in buckets, was its stunningly unquallified DEI hire director. The fillm marketed itself on DEI , and totally avoided everything that earned the comic book source material its somewhat niche but also revered status, as a Jack Kirby masterpiece.
How many permutations of the phrase, "sometimes, to build a better world means tearing down the old one," do you think we've heard uttered in movies & shows over the past decade? And does anyone else feel like this isn't just a throwaway line, but accurately encapsulates the philosophical nihilism of activist writers, directors, & producers in Hollywood?

The Despot is criminally underrated
Maybe that's better for now. He is the best that you can take from little platoon, critical drinker (when he was in prime) and tbys while also adding a lot of good own creativity. He is a gem that should be protected until he gets clone on odysee and/or rumble.
Otherwise he will be attacked by toxic and hateful Twitter/tiktok "folks" and deplatformed, because he is mostly saying truth even if sometimes I disagree with some of his opinions
He really is
It’s the accent
"Bilbo Cosby" made me HOWL!!!!!! It's even more epic than "Guess Who's Coming to Second Breakfast"
I absolutely love how this longform date section of all the travesty involving DEI in the industry is interrupted in the middle for a tirade where you just completely rip the strokes to shreds. Absolutely fantastic.
Reversing racism doesn't undo the past. All the hatred towards middle aged white men is the very definition of ageism, racism, and sexism. Love your channel. Keep fighting the good fight!
It's just racism- NOT reversing it - it was always there. Now it's condoned and EMPOWERED. Globally.
Exactly. Equity claims you can lift up black people to make up for what was done to them in the past by the same rich families that give us all miserable lives now. It's targeting the poor for the sins of the rich, just like climate fascism.
And so the Despot returns to face down possibly the greatest disaster Disney Star Wars has unleashed upon the world. He will stand against this terror and strike it down with great intelligence and furious critique as he lays his judgment upon it.

@@DespotofAntrim hey friend, love you content. lemme ask your opinion on this... do you agree with oscar wilde that the critic and art criticism is the superior artist/form of art, or do you believe the artists themselves hold that accolade? curious what a skilled, modern day critic might think of this issue.
Even though I have never watched Brendan Schaub’s stand-up, I can guarantee the Despot’s usage of Schaub’s annoying noises caused more laughter than all of Schaub’s jokes combined.
I don't think he has any jokes. Honestly, his entire set does not contain a single real joke consisting of a set up and punch line.

The subversion of the “Damsel in Distress” trope has become the norm, now it would be total subversion to actually HAVE the male hero rescue the woman! I would be shocked!
The original Star Wars subverted that trope in the 70s. Leah was a badass who took charge of the situation.
In Pat and Mike Charles Bronson and goons corner Tracy and Hepburn, Kate then proceeds to kick Bronson's behind. She does it again once the law arrives, demonstrating to them what happened. Pat and Mike came out in 1952.
I don't think the industry to promote good relationships between men and women. Like love stories. Because men and women loving each other and having families would be bad for the environment.

Currently there is also the fact that Lightsabers are not dangerous at all.
If it was a proper star wars movie Kylo Ren would be either dead or severely disfigured, the guy taking a lightsaber to the face and only getting a scar is unbelievable
according to the acolyte, butter knives are more powerful then light sabers now.

Jennifer Salke also cancelled the Conan-The Barbarian series, that Ryan Kondal was working on.
Kondal is a big fan of the original Conan stories by Robert E. Howard and the script was supposedly very good, according to some people who read it.
Kondal than jumped ship to HBO MAX and wrote/ produced House of the Dragon, which is a huge hit with audiences and critically acclaimed.
Imagine, we could have had a well written, mature Conan series with great production values.
Instead we got shite like Rangz of Power & that abysmal Wheel of Time show....
You can get way better writing anywhere else other than Hollywood. I literally seen better structured, more coherent, complex and awesome writing, and characters done by fans than the actual writers.
'Sacrifices must be made for the greater good' is the message they push, coming from people that are overpaid, under-talented, and completelt oblivious to what it take to live a REAL life. I firmly believe they are projecting, to the nth degree.

You ain't lying. What's really crazy is that the only people clamoring for DEI are rich white people.

Real people worry about real things that actually impact their lives. People who have time to count how many non white people are in a movie are people who have plenty of money.

Both Jim Rash and Brie were in Community. A show that approached diversity with its tongue firmly in its cheek. They made constant jabs at diversity being used for monetary or social gain. It was both actually diverse and was aware of how diversity was used to manipulate. Now they are both fully riding that band wagon all the way to Hell.

@@williamdixon-gk2sk Brie had a part as Abeds girlfriend. And she was actually good, good acting, warm, charming, funny. Nothing like the Brie we know today.

DEI isn’t just destroying films & TV- it’s wrecking most of our economy. We just can’t see it happening as clearly. Just a gradual decrease in quality and more airplanes falling from the sky.
The rot started when we stopped calling them aeroplanes
we can see it clearly but the info is hidden or outrigh denied by a huge section of the population
race and sex based quotas were a mistake
You know what is funny? They are also pushing for DEI hirings even in Brazil, even among a mostly biracial population DEI practices are now being pushed everywhere (in this case where most of the population is already non white, they are pushing for more of the XX to get the jobs that were usually male dominated). Amazing.

DEI = DIE spelled differently cause it effectively kills anything it's attached to.
Ever wonder why Diversity (racial and sexual social engineering) and Equity (communism) are more important than Inclusion?
because those two things will be what ruins society as we know it (no matter how nice they appear), the inclusion is added to make it look good (wich it absolutely fails at)
i'd recommend respecting people over being woke, you don't even need the latter to do the former

The two parts that made me laugh the hardest were the Facebook/Titanic joke and "Am I right, girls?" You said you'd subvert the joke and you did! 🤣🤣🤣
That Facebook joke was funnier than it was meant to be. Gender swapping the joke was important for representation.
Despot, I'm surprised you didn't include Eternals, probably the MCU's most DEI by design film. Not only were the characters altered to suit the DEI hire cast ( hint, guess which ethnicity and sexual orientation turns out to be the villain) but Chloe Zhao, who won an Oscar for a low budget fill about Frances McDormand urinating in buckets, was its stunningly unquallified DEI hire director. The fillm marketed itself on DEI , and totally avoided everything that earned the comic book source material its somewhat niche but also revered status, as a Jack Kirby masterpiece.
Thanks for the tip RRTNZ. To be honest I only remembered The Eternals after I made the video. It would have been a great one to include.
