Fred wasnt a socialist. He worked for a living in the quarry. It a white privilege thing

Because the artist drew him that way

Why were so many Indians, of the native American variety, played by Italian guys in the old westerns? Same reason...🤣🤣🤣

@4meAndyou Exactly. Probably the most adsurd casting I can think of was having John Wayne play Genghis Kahn in a B&W movie, when he was young.

@Nitedoc A little clueless out in Hollywood in those days, weren't they? AND...🤔🤔🤔...these days, too! 🤣🤣🤣

@4meAndyou Yep, seems so.

Nitedoc · 51-55, M

Everyone was white to American artists back in those days.

@Nitedoc Peter sellers played a Chinese guy in some movie too.

Nitedoc · 51-55, M

@AthrillatheHunt Yep. Peter Sellers could pull that off fairly well, but John Wayne as a Mongolian Warlord!?

AthrillatheHunt · 51-55, M

@Nitedoc. I have no issue w that. No issue w white guys playing Jesus or Ghandi in movies either. But God forbid the little mermaid is black hahahah (seriously kidding )
