I’m saying it’s not very effective to try and do a “slam dunk” on someone when your slam dunk is a comment that is just displaying poor media literacy. It’s not well thought out and doesn’t offer much in discourse in a follow up. Little sarcastic comments made in ignorance don’t lead to enlightening discussions.
I don’t think you would defend a 1920s minstrel show today under the auspices of satire, but to most people that was more normalized back then, just as “haha asian” was normalized in Hollywood for decades and this guy’s brand of comedic bigotry is normalized today.

I said his movies, not him. And when you said other people were missing the point of the movies because they were satire
How is making a statement defending something?
