It's serious. At least the story is.
How does that make you any better at detecting sarcasm, or just plain reading comprehension?
It's a joke (playing on how many people don't understand what the privilege argument is).
Well the amount of foolish things he says it is hard to tell sometimes. Also pretty much everyone here understands the argument.
Treating this more seriously, the real problem there is that Perry's movies are seen as speaking for black people, as opposed to a particular group of black people (the ones who produce and consume Perry's movies). It's a mistake to take any individual director, whether it's Perry, Lee, etc., and think of them as speaking for black people. However, that's part of the reality of being in an out-group. Your actions, for good or bad, are considered a reflection on your entire group. By contrast, there is no director that's considered to embody the voice of white people. White directors are considered to have their own voices. The problem is not which director is considered to be speaking for black people, it's that any director would be considered in that light.
Go ahead, show us how much you understand the argument.
To be honest I have no interest in answering anything you ask as you talk down to people, are arrogant, play word games, delight in attempting to find faults in others, avoid simple direct questions and other wise act in a manner that I do not care for. I, as well as many others here, do not take you seriously due to your games and actions.
So in short, go pound sand.
I look forward to your lack of interest being displayed with a lack of further responses.
I look forward to the day when you realise you have done far more harm then good to the ideals you champion.
