    No, I'm balancing the scales. As I explained, if you ONLY starting putting 2kg on the left and 2kg on the right, the scales will never be balanced because they'd have decades of the left gaining 3kg vs the rights 1kg. Your "ideology" ignores reality. Your "ideology" will never bring true balance. It's just... so uninformed.

Eventually there will be enough of us in positions of influence where it would be foolish to pass us over. Can't expect people to play fair when the deck is always stacked against you.
    THIS!!! 100% We have to play fair while those in power continue to not? It's absurd.

    As with all privilege, you fail to understand it's even harder for the minority. Are acting roles hard to come by for everyone? Absolutely. Are they even harder to come by for LGBT+ actors, for non-Caucasian actors, for women... ABSOLUTELY. And you don't seem to understand that. Or don't care.

    But they are... it's just the ones being blocked are LGBT+, non-Caucasian and female.

    Acting is not a basic human right, nor is getting to audition for any role they want. You really don't know anything about this industry or how it works. I've never had the opportunity to audition for an MCU film. It's not a basic human right that I get to, and the fact I'm denied said opportunity... where's your outrage? Where's your outrage for the LGBT+ actors denied roles? When studios won't consider an LGBT+ actor for Spiderman. For Captain America. For Batman. Where is your outrage then?
