>Smith’s Genie, always reliable for a wisecrack, harkens back to previous anthropomorphic depictions of social subservience and alter-ego psyche — from Mark Twain’s Nigger Jim to Jiminy Cricket in Pinocchio and the black crows in Dumbo to Eddie Murphy voicing the serpent in Mulan and the donkey in Shrek, all products of the American romantic imagination. Smith’s alter-ego figure projects authority and confidence — an innocuous bogeyman lurking within the insecure dominant class’s illusion of progress.
uncle remus was literally the best part of song of the south besides the animated bits
Landon Williams
Cringe. There is nothing good about a black slave whistling dixie to entertain his oppressors.
Jonathan Taylor
Wtf are they even saying.
Also can c e l l e d
Justin Lee

Andrew Gomez
the real question is why didn't Aladdin wish to be made white?
Nathaniel Nelson
That he's literally the magical negro trope.
Kevin Hall
All images of black males in media must be in positions of dominance over whitey, because slavery.
John Perez
WE WUZ KANGS!
Ian Ortiz
So gandalf is a nigger?
Ethan Nguyen
So was robin williams also an uncle tom?
Jaxon Mitchell
How is Donkey subservient? His whole schtick with Shrek was that he did what he wanted, much to Shrek's chagrin.
Sebastian Bennett
No, you idiot. The Robin Williams version was just a racial caricature like blackface minstrels.
Oliver Gray
you don't remember the beginning part where shrek goes to that enslaving fairy tale place and said "aye, giv'me yore negroest fhairly tale khreecha, I n'eed me a slave."
Logan King
Why is this considered an acceptable image for blacks, but not the crows from Dumbo or all those other “racist” stereotypes from over 70 years ago?
>"We need more black people in movies" >"But only if they act the way we want them to act. That nigger should have been killing whiteys not singing and having fun and making the best of his situation!" Liberal trash.
Noah Johnson
Robin Williams was in blue face doing black face
Ryder Gonzalez
What did you want him to do? Start breakdancing after holding up a liquor store?
Matthew Wright
where do you autists go to find this? are there just random dudes that hunt for these over the top articles to post on Yea Forums?
Because (((they))) said so, now shut your mouth you stupid fucking goy.
Easton Smith
respectability = "acting white"
Kevin Smith
Because then (((merchants))) would have started bribing the Satraps to welcone refugees and send a military regiment to protect Judea.
Colton Wilson
A zip a dee doo dah day to you too sir. Genies are magic, Will Smith is black. That’s on casting if anything.
Gavin Hernandez
It's by Armond "King of Yea Forums" White
Jaxon Ramirez
Most of this stuff is written by people just above average intelligence, who consider themselves to be smart but are too stupid to realize how dumb their points are.
Noah Barnes
I thought Armond hated it when critics politicized movies
Cooper Lee
it's Armond WHite I'm surprised nobody had noticed. he's the "BASED BLACK MAN" of Yea Forums criticism because he's a conservative elitist.
Nathaniel Reed
>black people can be magic in films now because then they would be the magical nigger Good one
Adrian Gomez

Cooper Brown

Kevin Murphy
Shut up faggot
Robert Clark

Owen Thompson
Newfags will be thrown in the gas chambers with the niggers and kikes.
Camden Gray
>Jiminy Cricket in Pinocchio What the fuck? Jiminy was black? What?
Caleb Howard
You seriously didn't know that?
Hunter Morales
While true you're clearly responding to a false flag.
Noah Perez
i was a child when i watched it and wasn't aware of racial sterotypes
Jacob Reyes
Grasshopper, moon cricket
Nicholas Bennett
>“Jiminy Cricket” was a polite euphemism for Jesus Christ How is that even on the same level of bad as Jigaboo? Also, Uncle Remus was based and had good stories
Brandon Hughes
This operates under the assumption that Aladdin is white The actor is Egyptian Therefore asserting that Egyptians are white Therefore debunking that Egyptians are black All written by a leftist You heard it here first
Liam Harris
Green is the new black.
Jaxson Ross
So basically Will Smith for all his career, is what they are saying
Based on yhe talent of the performer, and not the depth of the character, user.
Henry Davis
Literally unironically black culture though.
Christopher Rogers
Because he isnt socially dominant, therefore he is a field slave. See? This is why we can't trust black people to make their own decisions about what is and isnt appropriate, they go and do things like read a script and decide to play a role in it.
Matthew Parker
>Eddie Murphy voicing the serpent in Mulan It was a dragon. Chinese dragons are wingless. Why the fuck are these people so ignorant of other cultures yet constantly bitch about muh oppression?
