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.

The appointment of Mojtaba Khamenei was welcomed by Yemen’s Houthi rebels, who are backed by the Iranian regime.
“We congratulate the Islamic Republic of Iran, its leadership and people, on the selection of Sayyid Mojtaba Khamenei as Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution at this important and pivotal juncture,” the group said in a statement on Telegram.
Mojtaba Khamenei’s elevation marks the first time since the 1979 Islamic revolution that Iran’s supreme leadership has passed from father to son.
It is a development likely to ignite debate inside Iran about the emergence of a dynastic system in a state founded explicitly to overthrow hereditary rule after the shah.
Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who ruled for 37 years, was killed in a US-Israeli strike on Tehran on 28 February, on the first day of the war with Iran.
Across Iran’s political and security establishment, officials moved swiftly to welcome the appointment of Mojtaba Khamenei as the country’s new supreme leader.
The Revolutionary Guards declared they stood ready to follow him, signalling broad backing from the country’s core institutions.
Earlier in the day, in a post on X in Farsi, the Israeli military said it would continue pursuing every successor of Ali Khamenei and would pursue every person who sought to appoint a successor for him.
For many analysts, Khamenei’s appointment is a symbolic move designed to make the regime still appear strong and determined not to bow to western pressure.
The 56-year-old cleric has never held elected office nor formally occupied a senior position within Iran’s government. He has spent much of his life at the centre of power in Iran while remaining largely out of public view.
To his supporters, Khamenei represents continuity with the ideological line established by Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini and maintained by his father. To critics, his rise raises uncomfortable questions about the concentration of power – and the possibility of hereditary leadership in a state founded in revolt against monarchy.
Oil prices surged more than 25% on Monday to their highest levels since mid-2022, as major Middle Eastern oil producers cut supply because they cannot safely send shipments through the strait of Hormuz to refiners worldwide.
Traffic through the strait was largely closed after Iran attacked at least five ships, with a limited number of tankers transiting, choking off a key artery accounting for about 20% of global oil and LNG supply.

Ali Khamenei’s Second Son Took His Place
Who is He?
⌨️⌨️⌨️⌨️⌨️
Mojtaba Khamenei, the second son of the late Iranian supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, has been chosen as his successor, as the war enters its 10th day and fresh missile and drone strikes reverberate across the Middle East.
After members of the clerical body responsible for selecting Iran’s highest authority announced the decision on Sunday, Iranian institutions and politicians, from the foreign ministry to lawmakers, issued statements expressing their allegiance.
“We will obey the commander-in-chief until the last drop of our blood,” a statement from the defence council said.
The move could lead to a further escalation of the war, given Donald Trump had already acknowledged that Mojtaba Khamenei was the most likely successor and made clear he considered him an “unacceptable” choice.
The US president said earlier on Sunday that Iran’s next supreme leader was “not going to last long” if Tehran did not get his approval first.
When asked about the appointment during an interview with the Times of Israel published late on Sunday, Trump was reported as saying: “We’ll see what happens.”
In the same interview, Trump said a decision on when to end the war would be a “mutual” one, together with Netanyahu.
Trump also asserted that Iran would have destroyed Israel if he and Netanyahu had not been around. “Iran was going to destroy Israel and everything else around it (…) We’ve worked together. We’ve destroyed a country that wanted to destroy Israel,” he was quoted as saying.
The Israeli military said it had launched a wave of strikes on Monday targeting “regime infrastructure” in central Iran, the first such announcement since the appointment of the new supreme leader.
The military also announced strikes on the Iran-backed militant group Hezbollah in Lebanon.
Iran and its proxies appeared to have launched attacks, too, with rocket and drone strikes targeting a US diplomatic facility near Baghdad’s international airport that were intercepted by the C-RAM defence system, said police sources.
A drone strike targeted a US military base near Erbil airport in Iraqi Kurdistan, security sources said, while Saudi authorities reported intercepting a drone east of its northern al-Jawf region.
In Bahrain, the health ministry reported 32 people were wounded overnight by an Iranian drone attack on the island of Sitra.
They include a 17-year-old girl who suffered severe head and eye injuries, and a two-month-old baby, according to the ministry.
Iranian state media also showed a projectile said to have been launched at Israel bearing the slogan: “At your command, Sayyid Mojtaba,” using an Islamic honorific.
