"Do NOT watch Avatar: The Way of Water," Begay wrote on Twitter on Sunday. "Join Natives & other Indigenous groups around the world in boycotting this horrible & racist film."

Begay also said that Indigenous "cultures were appropriated in a harmful manner" to satisfy a white man's "savior complex."

I wonder if this is some reverse psychology to drum up ticket sales after James Cameron's " toxic testosterone" comments last week..

Well James Cameron is a leftist, so let them fight.

Cameron is an old-time hack, Sci-Fi writer Harlan Ellison had to sue, and won, to get his name in credits for 1984's The Terminator,
because Cameron stole two ideas from Ellison's scripts from two Outer Limits TV episodes.

They want to use the white man's magic without admitting the white man brought them the magic.

How about "Do NOT watch this movie because the first one was terrible!"

Just like the first one, I have no plans on watching it.

The first one was a rip off of Fern gully. Not watching the second either way no matter what drama it stirs. I'm done feeding the beast.

Of course because WBD hasn't tanked enough

NVM, looks like they don't have any part in this movie.

Btw,I didn't buy this is was part of the At&t split.

So, when you see black women with say, blonde hair, is this also cultural appropriation?

Or is this different? Only when white women curl their hair is it cultural appropriation.

Just trying to keep all the BS straight.

There are no blue people, unless you count that guy who overindulged in colloidal silver a while back.
