Before reading this article, may I just remind you that I love the Jews. They're great with money, and they have a good mix of white and brown. Now, back to reading one of my masterpieces.
The standard woke liberal response to Gal Gadot's casting is hokum. Gal Gadot looks more like Cleopatra than an Arab or Black actress would be. However, those liberals are right for the wrong reasons.
It all comes back to the Arabs vs the Jews, like everything in world politics. Gal Gadot is Israeli. She is a citizen of that nation, even served in the army and everything. Now, I don't doubt that she is badass, but Gal Gadot playing an Egyptian queen is just like the Arab-Jewish conflict.
Israel has stolen a lot from the Arabs in her history. Land, culture, food, language, and now movie roles. Israel is denying Egyptians the right for an awesome figure in Egyptian history to be played by an Egyptian.
The criticism that Gal Gadot is too bland for the role of Cleopatra is ludicrous. Even if Cleopatra was actually ugly, she should be played by a pretty actress. However, accuracy or Hollywood casting isn't as important as making actual Egyptians and brown people feel like they're better than everyone else, because they are. Less hot, less historically accurate, but more Justice.
Gal Gadot's casting is because of the bias in the white media. Hollywood and also Bollywood refuse to cast brown actresses in roles. Brown actors should take over all the roles. Voxijans, Arabs, Dravidians, everyone! Even if the role should belong to a filthy white!
If you call me a hypocrite, you're a hypocrite yourself, and probably one of those woke American liberals.
