Y'all aren't going to believe this shit

[AntivaxHunters]

First off, if you aren't familiar with Matt Walsh, please take the time & educate yourself on this disgusting fash trash person. He's a BIG anti-vaxer and Covid denier. He's also "leader" in the right wing activist movement & is directly responsible for some of the worst things happening today; from bomb threats at children's hospitals to harassing trans people, to calling for outright violence against anyone he deems as being "deviant".
He is a garbage person of the highest degree and began the whole "What Is A Woman" bullshit.

He believes racism doesn't exist and is in cahoots with Ben Shapiro's "The Daily Wire".
Understand he is one of the big righties who lost his mind over fear of a black hobbit and fear of a black mermaid.
And now he thinks this is a good idea - A WHITE ACTOR PLAYING MALCOLM X.

Yes you read that correctly.
This is the height of "black face" and cultural misappropriation done by literal racists.
These people need to have every single damn one of their platforms yanked. This is degusting and effed up royally!

1. I really don't think it causes anyone any actual harm

Just like it doesn't when black people are cast as 'white characters'.

They just do this shit to get a rise out of us.

BTW, do you really think this project is gonna happen?

I don't. Even if it does, who's going to want to watch a low-budget video about Malcolm X made by The Daily Wire?

Not our side ... and not their side either cause they don't GAF about Malcolm X.

And unless they plan to actually put blackface on the guy ... it's really not the height of blackface.

I say ignore these gaslighting idiots

6. Are you joking with this?

White appropriation and black face is NEVER acceptable.
What are you doing?!

Yes it causes harm to those of us who aren't white. Just wow....

[Hugh_Lebowski]

13. If they're actually putting the guy in black face, then yes it's harmful

Otherwise, the only harm is that you're annoyed.

If this were a major Hollywood studio production, expected to make money in cinemas across the USA, then I would also be annoyed.

But these RWNJ asshats, just doing some cheesy video that'll only be online, make $0 profit, be watched by almost nobody, created entirely to annoy people such as yourself?

I say fuck them. Just ... choose to NOT let them do so.

Then they FAIL at what they're trying to do.

Can you follow this line of reasoning?

EDIT: Below I see a post suggesting that this is known hoax anyway.

So it was one guy on twitter who succeeded wildly in upsetting you with his gaslighting bullshit.

Seems like he kinda won, cause that was his exact intent.

15. I'm not convinced they are making this

But if they do, it'll be like the stupid hunter biden movie that nobody is seeing.

2. This is the odious pile of shit who instigated all the threats against Boston Children's Hospital.

He is a particularly disgusting garbage person, and I'm not surprised by anything here. Apple and everyone else who continues to carry his filthy podcast deserve financial ruin.

4. "We're takin' revenge 'cause of the black mermaid!"

Imagine this being one's big ambition in life...

5. movies are expensive to make

so take some solace in the fact that this will be a huge waste of $$$ for these assholes.

8. Matt Walsh sucks (truly)

so by all means, lets give him more attention and clicks, which is how he runs his empire.

Walsh thrives on conflict. By giving it to him you feed him. Same with Candace Owens.

9. If they get this upset over The Little Mermaid, wait until....

the new James Bond is played by Idris Elba. I understand he is a front runner.

10. I don't believe it because it's not true

https://knowyourmeme.com/news/no-angry-conservatives-arent-making-a-malcolm-x-movie-starring-white-conservative-commentator-michael-knowles

Satirical rapscallion Jeff Charles, aka @JeffOnTheRight, is at it again. Two months removed from hoodwinking Twitter into thinking a Portland coffee shop had woked itself back into segregation, he's now gotten a sizable amount of marks to believe that The Daily Wire is funding a Malcolm X biopic starring white conservative political commentator Michael Knowles.

The tweet is a riff on the backlash by some conservatives to The Little Mermaid remake starring Halle Bailey as Ariel. Many online have made a fuss about the casting choice over the last couple of weeks, believing Ariel, a fictional character portrayed as a white and ginger mermaid in the 1989 animated Disney film, is canonically white and the libs are taking their wokeness too far.

To be clear, no such "Malcolm X biopic" is being made. However, Charles' tweet still had some political commenters howling, expecting a grand failure on the part of The Daily Wire — not knowing they were being fooled...

16. They THRIVE on this stuff

Matt Walsh likes to bait people into responding so then he can say: Look how foolish they all look.

Don't buy into his bullshit.

He's a sophomoric big mouth.

[blogslug]

19. Look

I went to that Twitter account to look for the post to verify it was actually posted. It was. I've never heard of the @JeffOnTheRight account. I can't tell if it's satire or serious or just icky.

So I googled "Daily Wire Malcolm X" and the KnowYourMeme article came up.

I know who Matt Walsh is. He's horrible. I need a shower after looking into this.

11. So they are going to spend a lot of $ to make a movie that makes no one will see.

The only point they seem to be making is the same one that DeSantis is making.

"We are willing to invest in stunts."

12. Republicans stole X's mantra: By Any Means Necessary

They’re living out that mantra on a daily basis radically chipping away at democracy.

Soooo … it’s actually kind of fitting to cast a white person in the role — since they’re doing the very things they claimed made Malcolm X a threat.

[vercetti2021]

14. Lmaooooo

Matt Walsh is such a self loathing piece of shit. Me existing is enough to trigger him

[Dorian Gray]

18. Keep up the good work

Vercetti2021. Keep triggering Matt Walsh. xoxo

17. This is childish tit for tat political theater. They probably aren't serious, if they are...

it will fail financial, but then any effort to get this movie made will be on a shoestring budget in the first place.

More cultist grift bait.
