there’s a real social-progressive way to look at that, which nobody talks about, which is that the people who’ve gotten pushed out of the Hollywood economy generally are older white men.

HOW FUCKING FRAGILE ARE THESE PEOPLE THO

"Because now they’re competing with younger people and women and people of color that they never had to compete with before. And it hurts.”

Scared of competition.

Remember that post where Spielberg was gatekeeping tf out of Netflix's "Tv movies"? People here were saying "omg he's scared of competition" and he had a few defenders being like "lololol why would he be scared of competition?"

....this shit makes me think they actually are scared of the competition

When I read this article yesterday I kept going over that line because I thought I had to be misunderstanding it. Like even if they thought oh no the poor white men!, who would actually say it out loud? Guess they felt shielded enough to be just that dickish.

"These companies took what was an extraordinarily successful economic model"

Extraordinarily successful economic model for who sir? Certainly not the consumer....or the marginalized creatives excluded from it?
