Недавно Илон Маск написал, что у Нетфликса проблемы с доходами из-за повесточки. Удивительно, что такое пишет американец — я был уверен, что американцы как раз довольно слепы к тому, насколько абсурдной выглядит вездесущая повестка. И что скорее у русских людей пригорает: редко когда на русскоязычных ресурсах под любым новым релизом фильма или сериала нельзя найти комментарии разной степени язвительности о расах и ориентациях персонажей. А тут и у Маска пригорело, оказывается.
Повестку действительно трудно не замечать, ей прямо тычут в лицо, если не в фильмах, то в современных американских сериалах практически повсеместно. Проникновение в кино пока меньше, хотя тоже есть, и, судя по анонсам, будет усиливаться: новый Джеймс Бонд это чернокожая девушка, новый Железный Человек это чернокожая девушка, я вообще не понимаю, как белых мужчин в принципе ещё пускают на съёмочную площадку.
Слово "обратный" в термине "обратный расизм" или, например, "обратная дискриминация" — не совсем подходящее, но хорошо отражает суть: давайте осознанно и умышленно быть расистами и сексистами против людей, которые до этого долгое время были расистами и сексистами. И я даже не говорю о том, что принцип "око за око" может быть не только спорным сам по себе, но и порождать потенциально бесконечные качели. Мне просто весь подход кажется очень формальным и искусственным: примерно как попытка на выходных выспаться за всю неделю. Если просто взять и принудительно в сверх-форсированном режиме показывать по 10 представителей меньшинств в каждой серии каждого нового сериала, это не исправит десятилетия и столетия притеснений, но при этом и качество сериала уронит, и вызовет некоторое раздражение у людей.
На мой взгляд бороться со столетием притеснений нужно вот как: следующие сто лет показывать представителей меньшинств в нормальной репрезентации. Вот по статистике что-то около 2% геев — ну и сделайте 2% персонажей геями случайным образом, а не 20% просто ради демонстрации. Аналогично с расами, полами и так далее. Может ли быть Джеймс Бонд чернокожей девушкой? Конечно. И Железный Человек может. Но вот чтобы одновременно: вероятность уже ниже. А чтобы ещё в десяти фильмах и сериалах ВНЕЗАПНО значимые роли достались меньшинствам — это прямо совсем какое-то магическое совпадение. Вместо мысли "геи это нормально" закрепляется мысль "геи это навязчиво и раздражающе" (да простят меня геи, которые это читают).
Что-то мне кажется, лет через десять мы не очень будем жалеть об уходе из страны американского кино, даже при том, что американская киноиндустрия де-факто является на текущий момент крупнейшей в мире, и во многих жанрах просто нет никаких хоть сколь бы то ни было качественных альтернатив.

Is Life a Competition for you?
The language of competition is 𝘞𝘩𝘰 𝘪𝘴 𝘣𝘦𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘳, 𝘸𝘩𝘰 𝘪𝘴 𝘯𝘶𝘮𝘣𝘦𝘳 𝘰𝘯𝘦? Wanting to be better than others is a never-ending race. So our energies of love, care and co-operation get blocked. Most of us grew up conditioned to believe that life is a competition.
1. Competition is not limited only to your professional world. You may compete even in your family - over who is more loved, who takes better care of the house, who earns more and so on.
2. Your tendency to compete becomes a habit. You may lose awareness and may unknowingly live in fear, tension and anxiety all the time in trying to be being ahead of others.
3. When you compete with someone, you are at a loss. You may either not utilize your full potential and just be happy about being ahead of the other person. Or you may end up stretching yourself way beyond your capacity and get stressed. Your aim would be to be better than others, rather than being your best, which you have set for yourself.
4. Make co-operation your purpose of life, not competition. You’re not against each other, you are with each other. You are not in a race; you are on this journey together. You will share what you know and take others along as you move forward. This shift will change the way you live and bring more success than you expected.

Market Impact of Chinese AI Breakthrough
A massive downturn in tech stocks, particularly Nvidia, and cryptocurrencies occurred due to Chinese AI platform DeepSeek emerging, boasting superior capabilities at significantly lower costs. This raises concerns for established AI companies relying on costly infrastructure. The competition will likely drive innovation but may reduce Nvidia's GPU demand, influencing overall market prices. Follow-up expected from U.S. response to DeepSeek. More details available in the full article.
