The cultural Marxists at USA Today may have reached the final extreme of self-parody in an otherwise positive review of the movie Dunkirk:
The fact that there are only a couple of women and no lead actors of color may rub some the wrong way.
This is a historical movie about the evacuation of British troops from France in WWII. The people involved were white males.
Suggesting that they should be played by blacks for purposes of diversity is like saying that some of the dogs in 101 Dalmatians should have been played by cats.
USA Today gives the movie 3 1/2 stars. It could have received four by taking advice from James Delingpole:
It might have provided valuable comic relief if Amy Schumer or Rebel Wilson – or perhaps even both – had been cast as, say, two brilliant battlefield surgeons who insisted on staying behind with the troops when all their male counterparts had fled.
Also, it would definitely have added a new dimension had James Earl Jones been cast as the salty old Royal Naval officer called out of retirement for one last trip across the English Channel, or if Ice T and Snoop Dogg had been given the role of two aging rappers who parachute from a Dakota to administer weed to the desperate troops, or if Oprah appeared in a cameo as Queen Mary welcoming the returning troops after their desperate voyage.
Liberals regard the triumph of their ideology as historically inevitable. If they are right, future generations will learn from the movies that Monty was a Muslim of Somali heritage and Patton was a transsexual illegal immigrant from Guatemala. At least Rommel will stay white. Read more.....
Poor fools.
