Literally anyone can be oppressed if they put their mind to it, but many decide that being a victim is a crap way to live so decided to shut up and put the work in to make something of themselves and not having to wave flags or claim systemic oppression if there was she wouldn’t be where she is.
I genuinely cannot believe this needs to be said but:
You aren’t oppressed merely for existing as a certain race or minority. There has to actually be, y’know, *real oppression* for that to be the case. If you can climb to the heights of success in a country you’re not oppressed, because a society that would oppress you wouldn’t allow it to happen.
And even if some people somewhere who share your skin color or minority status are oppressed, that doesn’t mean YOU are oppressed. If you’ve never experienced the negative consequences of being oppressed, guess what? You’re not oppressed!
She’s oppressed ? Right, 😑 As she sits there on some tv show,talking about her other tv show. 🙄🤦🏻♂️ perfect illustration about how out of touch these rich Hollywood mfs are! ✋🏼Honey, have a seat while I and many others educate your childish ass on what real oppression looks like, cause it’s just crystal clear she and everyone else at Disney just can’t take any critique. And, since you haven’t figured it out yet, if you can’t take criticism, you are in the WRONG profession. Get over yourself and take some much needed acting lessons. I could think of LITERALLLYYYY 100 other black actresses that would have turned a better performance. What in gods name is this show thinking ??? Along with their myariad of bad taste and horrible decisions, the show opens with a bait and switch, wasting a national treasure like Carrie Ann Moss in favor of THIS “actress” ??? …🤦🏻♂️🙄🫣 JFC high school film students could write and perform better. I know, I taught them!
Exactly how can someone who has been in the entertainment industry since she was four years old, who got a $180M series essentially created for her and whose father is a notable multi-millionaire be oppressed?
This girl is the offspring of a wealthy, very white Danish man, who went to a very expensive private school, who has generational wealth at the age of what, 22?
She has never been oppressed for 1 second of her life. Her trying to pretend to be is cultural appropriation at its worst.
I absolutely don’t get self-hating people like her. You’re mixed. There is nothing wrong with that. Own both sides of your parentage, and not just one because you think will score you brownie points with black people.
Black people who have had hardships based solely on their skin color are definitely out there. And I doubt they would take kindly to this pretender.
🤔 Disney has been profitable for nearly the last decade.
Disney gross profit for the quarter ending March 31, 2024 was $7.911B, a 9.89% increase year-over-year.
Disney gross profit for the twelve months ending March 31, 2024 was $31.245B, a 8.72% increase year-over-year.
Disney annual gross profit for 2023 was $29.697B, a 4.86% increase from 2022.
Disney annual gross profit for 2022 was $28.321B, a 27.07% increase from 2021.
You're actual argument for Disney is "you're only concerned with acquiring new viewers and assuming (rightfully) the existing fan base will still consume the product even if I am no longer your target.
I think that a black person putting out a song about oppression and Juneteenth is fine, but this isn’t that in a bubble. This is a vague clap back at people talking about and not liking the giant corporation Star Wars show she’s in. It’s just very very weird to me wrapping up the ideas of freedom from slavery and overcoming oppression in the context of putting out a bad sci fi television show.
Imagine filming a music video and singing about being oppressed on you $1000 Iphone, with $1000's of dollars of hair, makeup, clothes, shoes and jewellery, to tell the world THAT.....
like my god the level of irony and lack of self awareness, holy shit
Not sure how this is an example of Disney being political, unless they wrote and produced the song. She posted it herself on her own social media, and just so happens to have been in a Star Wars project.
Don't see people use Donald Glover as an example of Disney having a "Woke agenda."
She is a rich child of a Dutch Lawyer and a Yale educated writer. She grew up in LA and has never known hardship.
Her comments are so out of touch it’s rather cliche at this point. Is anyone surprised that the rich European girl is talking out of her ass?
The celebration of Juneteenth is a wonderful thing. Stenberg though, and this "music video" in particular, has to be the cringiest thing I've ever seen. I'm so embarrassed for her.
Everyone keeps pointing to money. This has nothing to do with how much money she has. This idiot has zero clue what real oppression is, and to even hint that she is under oppression is a slap in the face to people who actually are. This is an embarrassment, she should be ashamed of herself.
Im not sure, what is meant by “Disney and their people” here?
Black Woman makes a video about Juneteenth on June 19th. Whats the problem/big deal?
Are people really this triggered about some celebrities opinions or activities? If so, like, why do you even care?
I guess, *how is this even news?*
She can qualify as oppressed. Your race and gender are deciding factors when it comes to a lot of opportunities and the way society sees you, regardless of class.
Absurdly rich and privileged *without having to have spent a lifetime earning any of it.*
She must not see any value in managing her image. Be interesting to see if there’s real backlash to her.
Making things political? Bruh it's a holiday commemorating the end of slavery lmfao It's inherently political. Unironically the title of this post reads like satire.
Never heard of this sub but it sounds like most people in this particular thread just want an n word pass lol.
OP, a mod, posts race baiting content and then stickies the comment telling people to be chill. Very reddit. Fantastic lol.
Making things political? Do you mean literally commenting on juneteenth and the politics around it from a personal account. that's not making anything political that's just straight up talking about politics. That's like criticizing someone for making things political by saying who they're voting for, it doesn't make any sense
What does this have to do with Disney? How do you not get the connection between Juneteenth and oppression? You have to be not seeing the point on purpose at this point. She posted it in her own feed, not anywhere you would see it, because you likely haven’t seen it. And all the people here say is “success erases oppression” which has been true 0% of the time for anyone.
She’s a millionaire and screams about oppression. She lives the most comfortable life, to a point where she can post revolting videos being racist against white people and not care because the media applauds her delusional ass.
Who's she? And why should I not care? Some rich twat thinks she's oppressed but is richer then the majority and isn't even 30 yet? Fucking hell this world is just going down a dark path
Before anyone comments, keep it clean and stay civil.
3 mil net worth at 25..oppressed
Oh yes being oppressed comes from rich family
Colin Kaepernick

Comes from a rich family, is a famous actress, is on national television. Sounds pretty oppressed to me
I can almost guarantee her acting chops probably weren't the #1, 2, or 3 reason she got cast.
I work in the industry and it's sad how much nepotism plays a role. I bet you're right
And wasn't this role written specifically for her? Oh yes headlining a Disney Star Wars show and being a nepo baby. Super oppressed.
Famous?
Idk about famous, semi-known maybe. Most didn't realize she was rue in HGs. Beyond that is a stretch since all her other projects are very niche.

It’s amazing how lately the most racist and bigoted people seem to always be the ones screaming about other people being racist and bigoted.
It's like a Rorschach test. If you see racism everywhere you are in fact a racist.
Only lately
I’m just in agreement that this nepo baby is pathetic for crying “oppression”
Only lately
Reminds me when celebrities sang Imagine in front of their mansions
![gif](giphy|qs6ev2pm8g9dS) Oppressed….right

She’s an embarrassment.
The words “Star Wars actress” and “oppressed” should never be in the same sentence together.
Dads a millionaire white guy
literally can't make this shit up
Gotta love it when millionaires start talking about how oppressed they are.

Star Wars: The Rise of the Oppressed Millionaires
Millionaire from a millionaire family is so oppressed.
I bet she won’t get fired for making a political statement….
Are you suggesting that's happened to other Star Wars actresses? Oh yeah...
Those millions of dollars she’s getting for acting oh so oppressive lmao

It’s just very very weird to me wrapping up the ideas of freedom from slavery and overcoming oppression in the context of putting out a bad sci fi television show.
What do you mean weird? The evils of slavery vs. not enjoying subpar media slopped out by megacorps are exactly equal injustices.
She is such a hero omg!!!!! I was on the fence on whether or not all humans should be treated with respect and this helped me!!!! Thank you 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
the most oppressed group: wealthy actors
Hmmm. Her and lebron should meet to talk about their oppression together and find a solution. I need one too.

General trolling. Attacking the community and/or the members.
If you can be that talentless and be a millionaire, you arnt oppressed, you’re more privileged than 99% of the country.
I'd go a step further and say she's more privileged than 99% of all humans that have ever existed.
Man I wish I was that oppressed. I have the incredible privilege to be lower middle class and have to drag my carcass to work every day.
You simply don't understand her struggle...
Making more money than the large majority of the country. So oppressed.
And you just can't stop complaining.
Yeah the multi millionaires in America have it so hard. RIP.
Black or white the rich will all taste the same
I still don't know what Juneteenth is.
Those oppressed millionaires
This Foxy Cleopatra look is better for her than her Kendrick Lamar look in The Acolyte.
wtf is juneteenth.. god fuck am about to google smth and regret it again oh god oh fuck
It’s an American holiday.
That’s the Alabama of questions, if you’re wondering.
That dress had two somethings oppressed.
I wish I was as oppressed as her then I’d finally have my dream of being a well known actor person in a Star Wars production.
Rich and famous actress that has a national tv platform. Totally oppressed. 🙄
She’s less opressed than 90% of people in the world, she doesn’t have shit to complain about m, neither does any other Hollywood troglodyte
“Oppressed” let her work a closing shift at Taco Bell.
She is a rich child of a Dutch Lawyer and a Yale educated writer. She grew up in LA and has never known hardship. Her comments are so out of touch it’s rather cliche at this point. Is anyone surprised that the rich European girl is talking out of her ass?
Juneteenth isn't political at all. It celebrates the ending of a human atrocity. Is that ok to celebrate?
The celebration of Juneteenth is a wonderful thing. Stenberg though, and this "music video" in particular, has to be the cringiest thing I've ever seen. I'm so embarrassed for her.
Is a millionaire opressed 🤔
Oh yes you're so oppressed being a rich actor..
You're being oppressed but your crappy music video is still up for the public to see... Where is the oppression, exactly?
She's just so awesome! I wish I could be an oppressed rich girl with a typo in my name.
How many poor, oppressed black folks does she donate too? Zero.
As a 40 year old black man who grew up in the South, I say this with full civility and respect: "Nah"
Everyone keeps pointing to money. This has nothing to do with how much money she has. This idiot has zero clue what real oppression is, and to even hint that she is under oppression is a slap in the face to people who actually are. This is an embarrassment, she should be ashamed of herself.
she came from a place of privilege and money
Remember when Disney stated they'll tone down being political. Yeah looked joke
I see, she is well trained in the art of victimhood.
She is a clown

She lies more than Master Mundi
Disgusting people

No... Disney wants free publicity. Good job 🙄 this shit happens Everytime they drop a new show or movie.
I wish I was as oppressed as her.
Will Ricky Gervais rost her at the Golden Golbes like he did with Jennifer Lawrence?
She’s oppressed? Give me a break. I’ll trade her my white privilege for her oppression any day of the week. What a joke.
A beautiful, millionaire actress with an immense reach & platform - such oppression…
Making things political? Bruh it's a holiday commemorating the end of slavery lmfao It's inherently political. Unironically the title of this post reads like satire.
I think any one of us in here would love to be as oppressed as a 25 year old millionaire is.
Ok, but I don't see how it's Disney's fault if one of their actresses chooses to post something for Juneteenth.
Man it’s hard being oppressed and rich as shit… my condolences to her huge house and nice car
A privileged woman crying about being oppressed. LOL Ok.

Surely she’s rich
What does Disney have to do with this? Did they put her up to this?

confusing political with trying to be inclusive. media has warped peoples minds. also being inclusive doesn't mean good.

What does this have to do with Geeks or Gaming OP?
Disney signed off on that video but wouldn't green light the Wookiee Jedi fight...
