" ... Absolutely - which is why I’d never recommend labeling colleagues as racist any more than I’d recommend labeling them as selfish, lazy or jealous. While the label itself is less important in that way (in my view), soberly acknowledging our own flaws, culpability and responsibility is such an important part of (if not a prerequisite for) progress. At the end of the day, if everyone assumes that someone else is the problem, there is no progress. Ultimately, these labels become relevant because we can’t dismantle racism if we don’t know what it really looks like or can’t recognize it within ourselves. Indeed, awareness is the first step of problem solving. You’re not going to fix a problem that you don’t first acknowledge. ... "
" ... How jealous is Vince Russo that he doesn't get to write these wacky non-wrestling storylines to fill time during a pandemic? ... "
" ... I’m jealous. I would like to have his government because his government is better than mine. So one, I’m jealous that he is living in a better country with a not so violent government in comparison with my country and my government. Secondly, when he has problems with his government, the whole world defends him. When I have problems with my government, nobody helps me. Why? Because they’re using him for propaganda: look at China, how terrible it is there. But it’s not terrible in China. People do whatever they like. They are free to enterprise, to work and to build up their lives the way they want. This is impossible to say about countries in Europe. If I say to the press, “I’m Ai Wei Wei, please help me”, nobody wants to devote one letter to my political problems. So does Ai Wei Wei have political problems? No. It’s a big theatre because if I don’t pay my taxes, it would be four years instead of four months and nobody would visit me in jail. When Ai Wei Wei goes to jail for four months – this is terrible because I like him a lot and don’t want him to suffer – every European journalist defends him, and these journalists know very well that it’s worse in Europe than in China. They are not serving Ai Wei Wei’s purpose. I presume Ai Wei Wei is not doing this to become famous but because he really means well for his country. But what he is saying about his country is a bit unreasonable in comparison with all other countries because if you try to build a studio in New York without building permits – like he did in Shanghai – of course you would have problems. So I like him a lot as a human being and have learnt a lot from him, but I wish journalists would be a bit more intelligent. ... "
" ... So, not to sound too much like my old man, but you kids really don’t know how easy you have it these days! Of course, I’m just jealous. Things are getting better all the time, and that’s a wonderful thing. ... "
" ... This would be less vital if the jokes hit more than they missed. However, the movie contains an odd streak of lowest-common-denominator humor (most of the young women are jealous or hostile and most of the guys are clueless or misguided). The broad supporting characters feel forced, as if the intent was to make a general audiences comedy that could be enjoyed by the proverbial commoners. That’s no crime, as at least part of the goal of a movie like this is to create empathy through representation. But I can’t give high marks to a comedy during which, despite Awkwafina’s very best efforts, I barely chuckled. ... "
