Puzzling that will smith’s career is falling apart due to a slap in the face, but every time some celebrities were outed as legitimate predators, they were still able to stay in business…this is racial.

White privilege at its best: Will Smith is banned from attending the Oscars for the next 10 years for slapping Chris Rock. On the contrary, Donald Trump staged a coup and incited the January 6 terrorist attack, BUT did NOT suffer any sanctions.
White Privilege on parade: Will Smith banned from attending the Oscars for the next 10 years for slapping Chris Rock. In contrast, Donald Trump waged a coup and incited the Jan 6 terrorist attack BUT has suffered NO Penalty at all.

Will Smith is banned for 10 years, which is… extreme and unnecessary. But the Academy gave Roman Polanski an Oscar and the crowd rose to a standing ovation. It’s all a mess. I hope people stop worshiping celebrities and politicians. You’re looking behind the curtain now. It’s ugly.
