Hetero White Males underrepresented on British TV

[Greater vakolicci haven]

Which series are you talking about?

The wedding of river song for who
For Juile: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titus_(film)

Im never really got in to any of the river song doctor who episodes honestly. I don't know why, because I like her in big finish.

This really depends on the show.
Perhaps you think they are underepresented on the shows you watched, but you would have to watch every single British TV show in order to actually show this is the case.
In fact, with the number of TV shows in the UK, Caucasian hetero males and females are still the major groups in most British TV shows.

Yes. Ostroeuropa says that white people make up 77% of the characters on British TV shows, but that this is not enough.

I'm happy to accept the wage gap in a broader context.namely that men are paid less than women until a man and a woman partner up, at which point two options occur. The man can receive a massive pay cut to care for the kids, or the woman can receive a substantial, though lesser, pay cut to do so
The clear result there is that men taking time off to be parents is undervalued by society. That is the root cause of the inequality.


Which alternative root cause do you propose for these issues?

Congrats! You actually made a reasonable point! Too bad you're a bit of an ethnic nepotistic dinosaur.

Dude I'm way less confident on race issues than gender issues, but I'll argue them because I'm bored of victory.

What the hell is "Hamlet in Africa"? The only thing's I'm finding are stage productions of Hamlet, in Africa. I doubt you're suggesting that productions of Hamlet can only take place in Denmark.

Hang on I'll try and find it. This was at the lowry in Manchester. I'm pretty sure this is a review.

So it's an alright looking adaptation of Hamlet, that like millions before, isn't 100% faithful.

Lovely way to misrepresent what he's saying, well done. He's saying that BAME actors, as well as lgbt characters, are over-represented.

[Ayytaly]

They don't. They call it 'hamlet.'

Yes, Hamlet in Africa is Hamlet. I still don't see the point.

I wouldn't say its worse nor better. Different. + It's like the concept of traitor has slipped your mind. Capitalism incentivise cash. Blacks sold blacks I to slavery similarly, as a more extreme example. The key is social and legal bans on these treacherous and abuses and exploitation where they cause inequality..

so capitalism incentivises money, and most money by sheer volume is held by whites, and poverty is most present among minorities, and it does not make economical sense to cater to minorities instead of white people...

And yet you believe capitalism somehow is anti-white? Have you seen what the richest people on earth look like?

It's not capitalism, it's ethnic nepotism permeating job opportunitues. It also depends on the position offered. The higher the position (and therefore higher pay), the less likely the position is taken by a minority. However, this can be blamed on the minority's culture as well.

"Traitors to white culture"
Lmao, not even trying to hide your racial tribalism and total ignorance anymore. Only took you 10 pages, is that a new record?

The capitalist would as soon institute an anti white regime as a national socialist one. Whatever helps profit. Ll you progs pretending not to understand this is unconvincing and shows your desperation to avoid the observation. I'll say it AGAIN, yea, the capitalist is a traitor. Not must to their race but to all ,mankind if needs be for a dollar.

An anti white regime in the west (or anywhere for that matter) is not profitable. How would it be?

It wasn't slightly faithful.

Art is open to interpretation though is it not?

I mean, Shakespeare wrote these works almost four centuries ago. Don't you think we have seen the traditional telling quite enough?

Don't get me wrong, a good Shakespeare performance with the great stage actors of the day is brilliant. But is it that wrong to want to put a twist on something so familiar? And if it bothers you that much, why not just ignore it, not watch it, and stick with the traditional tellings?

No one is forcing anyone to watch TV shows, or plays, with diverse casts. If thats not your cup of tea, dont watch.

Sudden interw3ctional illiteracy when being intersectional would reveal white male disadvantage. Hmmmm....

Suppose there were 0 white women on TV. Your argument would be the same, right?

There was a skull. That's close enough.

And also that white people, and in particular, white males, are underrepresented.

Self destructive woke nonsense.

It's pretty difficult to find a telling of hamlet that's not am dram that is faithful to the original.

That is a statistical fact.

Still no evidence for this, unsurprisingly.

The argument '77% is enough' would not work for 0%, no.

77% is not 0%.

No. It would also not be the same if there were 0 white men on TV.

That is not even close to an answer.

Pudding which you have failed to even refrigerate, much less set out on the table.

No. It would also not be the same if there were 0 white men on TV.

So why bring up the 77% number unless you're being dishonest? How many are white males? Less than there are in society is the answer.

I domt actually need to. A super majority acceet it is true already.

[All Wild Things]

-stuff-

I know, right? It's awful. It's the same in those nature documentaries. There are certain species that are simply overrepresented on the BBC. Like pandas, polar bears, and snow leopards. These are rare species, but get a disproportionate amount of air time. Where are all the sparrows, rabbits, and house flies?

*sigh*. Sometimes I wonder why I pay my license fee...

[Jello Biafra]

No. It would also not be the same if there were 0 white men on TV.

Subtracting the representation of women would result in about 36.2% being white males. This wouldn't be an exact number, because I don't know if white women are proportionally represented or not.
