  1. Any discussion of Disney properties should contain a (cw: imperialism) tag. If your post isn't tagged appropriately it will be removed.

  2. Anti-Bong Joon-ho trolling will result in an immediate ban from c/movies and submitted to the site administrators for review.

I assume it means being so divorced from the material conditions and struggles of religious, ethnic, and racial minorities that they are invisible because being white (and wealthy, insulated) means they are in a privileged and sheltered position where those problems are invisible, ghosts, and relics of a bygone era.

Yeah right? when i watched the show as a child (rather made fun of my slightly younger friends for watching it) i noticed that shit immediately.

Pink - girl

Black - black dude

Yellow - asian

And when the green ranger became the white power ranger..boy howdy did i give my friends shit about that.

I just didn't see it

A child did... A blind man could, stfu loser

I don't know if it's my own prejudice, if you can call it that, but I feel like even nerdy guy (glasses=nerd) being the Blue ranger and the jock bro being the leader and Red ranger also felt like typical assignments for the colors.

Yeah, that's kinda what I meant. It's like the 'I didn't know I couldn't do that' excuse, they knew because it was obvious to absolutely everyone but they can still hide behind the excuse because other White people will accept it and cover for them. That's part of Whiteness.
