A new con job that is picking up steam (again):

There is a con artist named Sophia Stewart screeching on Tik Tok and alleging that she is the sole writer and creator of The Terminator and The Matrix films. She claims that these (huwite) writers stole from her wholly original science fiction story called The Third Eye , which is a generic story about humans vs. robots. Her claims are uplifted by the spirit of cultural appropriation and whitey stealing da culture. Every loser wants this to be true, so they are spreading it like crazy on tik tok and reddit. Sounds pathetic, but these are two of my favorite movies and the fact this bullshit may rewrite history for young kids pisses me off.

She attempted to sue for copyright theft, and never showed up to court. This caused the case to be completely dismissed as she was not able to provide any evidence or even her own presence. She goes on to do interviews with retards and chimp out about Hollywood stealing from her.

My fuckin' new barber of all people brought this to my attention, but he believed it. He said "I got this video of a black gal who revealed she was the writer of The Matrix and Terminator, and she said Terminator was a prequel to The Matrix!!" I politely said "wow I didn't know that" because I want to stay on good terms with this guy, he's good at his job haha. He also recommended Sinners to me, and if anyone remembers... I fucking hate that movie. I don't understand how someone can rejoice that Gavin Newsom is getting arrested, but love to watch white people die on screen. Ehh.

The Matrix was indeed stolen, from Alex Proyas "Dark City".

It was a combination of a couple things Dark City being one another being Ghost in the Shell and any of William Gibsons work.

Without derailing the thread, if you look at how the whole Matrix trilogy, not just concepts but even scenes how they are shot, the ending scen is so similar to Dark City (water vfx, the rain fight) I think they did it out of spite, they got away with two movies and the third was to mock it. The troon brothers were unapologetically ripping things off.
 
There were a ton of concepts and ideas the Waichowskis or whoever the scriptwriter was that you could say was 'ripped off', including the unfinished game series "Alternate Reality" which had the cocooned bodies fed illusions concept in 1985. However "The Matrix" was the first to synthesize these ideas into a blockbuster film format. They won, plain and simple.

However, the game "The Matrix Online" WAS provably ripped off from a pitch and early code by Monolith for an MMORPG "Alternate Reality Online" bringing a seminal 80s RPG series that was too advanced for the tech of the time to be completed beyond the first two games into the modern age. It's a fascinating and sad tale for fans of AR, look it up if interested.

Its always so funny to me when I read/hear "Blacks are overrepresented in the prison system". Nah, they are correctly represented in the system. If they want to be "less represented" or "proportionally represented" they need to stop committing so many crimes. It's that easy.

Black people love putting they babies in the trash.
Also they really, really like hitting them in public.

Jim Jone's multiracial utopia was ultimately a cult of early stage wokeness. Old jimmy and his Aviators preached a good one but, he was just a power hungry zealot.

Yeah, the difference now is they only strongly encourage the cultists to commit suicide instead of forcing them. Otherwise it all unravels pretty much the same way once people start asking questions.
 
Had to ban a big fat bitch from my coffee shop today. She tried to get her daughter to steal the tip jar. The daughter's 5 or 6, and she's always been beautifully behaved until today. I always say hello and make small talk with her, but last time she told me her mom says she's not allowed to talk to me anymore because I'm white, so this bitch was already on thin and cracking ice. I guess I'm just threatened by her black excellence.
 
This would have gotten me into a lot of hot water with my other fellow black people, but since it’s Kiwi Farms, I can get away with saying this for at least a temporary time:

Stevie Wonder is one of those musicians who I regularly can’t help but think is either overrated or occasionally can make an amusing song once in a while. I recently listened to Songs In The Key of Life and I came away really being awkward and questioning whether or not this guy was on LSD just recreating Elton John and Beatles songs. There was this song in particular that left me scratching my head:


It sounds like very bizarre science fiction where he’s proud of black people and their accomplishments, yet he uses a talking box in the middle of the track and then out of nowhere name drops an actual Jew who helped Christopher Columbus discover America. It seemed too on the nose, even if he was trying to sound inspiring with this song.

Either way, I’d love to hear from other Kiwis on this thread if no one else talked about this: Have any of you listened to a famous black musician where you thought you liked but then the more you listen to them you get confused as to why you liked them in the first place? All responses are really appreciated.

Also, here’s another unpopular opinion about Stevie Wonder:


This was one of the more unintentionally hilarious things I ever saw as a kid.

A blind guy randomly singing about the connection of love using a ribbon as a symbol, yet he’s on what appears to be a cruise ship (or a yacht?) while gallantly walking hand in hand with a woman portrayed as an angel?

It almost looked cartoonish, even if it was not meant to be.

This is a tough one as the only black musician I really enjoyed and respected was Jimi Hendrix, and I still do.
