HBO Max Removes Civil War Epic 'Gone With the Wind'

Yes I noted already in a previous post. The main black actor in the Disney Film “Song of the South” also received an academy award.

I saw that you did and was echoing your statements. I just can’t believe someone like Monte would support taking down one of the greatest movies of all time in this state of delirious wokeness that these companies have put themselves in.

Story goes, but I’m not 100%, when Hattie McDaniel was asked if playing Mammy was demeaning, she said, not at $3,000 a week.

Good or bad, all a country has is what happened in it’s history. Why would anyone wish to erased it. It’s what we were, and what we are today will be what we were tomorrow. Maybe we need to be reminded we once had a Civil War, in order to prevent another. Dumb libs. Oh Yeah, almost forgot, I want my reparations for the enslavement of my Irish ancestors.

I guess we need a new government office. The Department of Squeaky Clean. Is it 1984 already? Might be a good idea to plow up every Civil War cemetery, and build condos on all the battlefields.

I have read the book “Gone with the Wind” and it is a masterpiece. But the movie has very little in common with the book. You could almost say as different as night and day.

And hundreds of thousands of whites died fighting against slavery ! And it was the dems that wanted slavery to continue and voted against blacks . Funny how that part of our history gets overlooked . I’ll bet Monty’s family tree had slaves and fought to keep them , the guilt-ridden moron .

“My dear”…,is what he said.

Seems often to be the case…

People keep claiming it’s erasing history. It’s putting it in its proper place…

Have you seen the movie? Mammy was portrayed as a stereotype of an African American servant to wealthy southern whites. It’s time to move on.

You don’t need to…
You could go look and see what HBO has said about it. It’s certainly a temporary move, it will be put back on its platform in the future along with an explanation putting the movie that glorified the antebellum south in context…

That would require them to leave the Fox News website to obtain information. Never gonna happen.

NASCAR…finally…is banning the racist flag from all its properties. And Bubba Wallace circled the track with Black Lives Matter emblazoned on his car…

The marines banned the flag earlier this year.

So the US reckons with racism as Trump digs in…

And yet the vast majority of people here view anyone who isn’t white as the problem. Isn’t it surreal?

The world is moving on without them.

And I just can’t believe that you haven’t bothered to see what HBO has ACTUALLY said about it…:thinking:

https://youtu.be/oGUmzW3jw60?t=6 It wouldn’t be such a Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah day if he was back in Africa dying from malaria or sleeping sickness.

In Liberal terms, that would be: OUTA SIGHT, OUTA MIND.

You dumb shit! That’s the way it was in the day. It’s HISTORY! If you don’t study history, even the repulsive part of history…you are doomed to repeat it.

That’s what most of you dumbass socialist/Marxist/communist dickheads don’t understand. Socialism has NEVER WORKED WELL. We learned that from history.

It stands to reason that shitheads like you would love to erase all history that makes socialism look bad.

Story goes, Mammy ( Hattie McDaniel ) didn’t complain about being paid $3,000. a week, or so I heard.
