History Memes@piefed.social•Why's this always happen? I know re-enactors are willing to star for like, lunch and a train ticketEnglish
7·1 day agoI always thought it was ‘Last of the mohicans’ because the same people I knew also took part in that film. They hire a lot of individuals from Six Nations near Hamilton Ontario, it’s the biggest native community in southern Ontario.
But that film was mostly done in the US.
I think the film where this happened was with ‘Black Robe’, another period film during that period in the 90s and this one was filmed on Quebec.
The people I knew in Toronto were people that ran support programs for indigenous people who lived on the street. They said they didn’t know any of it had happened until these street people came back to tell them about it. They said a lot of those street people just had fun being paid to beat up white people. Lol.

231·1 day agoReminds me of a story I heard in Toronto with a bunch of my Native friends and family down there.
While they filmed ‘Last of Mohicans’ (movie came out in 1992 but it was filmed in 1991)EDIT: I’m remembering wrong … it was a film in the late 1980s / early 1990s with filming that took place somewhere around Kingston / Toronto / Hamilton, in Ontario … and it was some period film with an epic battle scene … it was always a funny story with my city Indian friends because they remembered being bussed to these locations to do these scenes
… the production company decided to hire a bunch of Indigenous people from the city and throughout southern Ontario to take part in a big huge choreographed open battle scene. They only needed a few trained stunt people for the foreground characters but they hired a lot of untrained people to take part in the background and wider shots. Everyone got dressed in period gear and given instructions on what to do. They had to take several takes over a day of filming.
At one point, they had to break up actual fights as Native actors started to actually beat, bloody and threaten the white actors. What the production company didn’t know was that some of the actors were either street people or people close to living on the street and that some of them were down and out drug addicted people who were just there for a few hours work and didn’t care what they were doing. As soon as they were told to pretend to beat white people … they took out all their frustrations on a few of their fellow non-Native stunt acting extras.
People have mentioned that in some of the scenes from the film … those are actual bloodied people (both Native and non-Native) that got into some of the uglier actual fight scenes on set.

Fediverse vs Disinformation@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Muslim hero tackles Bondi Beach gunman - yet Netanyahu claimed he was JewishEnglish
131·2 days agoWe watched the video of him pointing the gun at the gun man and debated about the fact that he could have just shot the guy and the public would have praised him for it.
But the debate was that … what would YOU have done? Most of us agreed that we would not have wanted the guilt of killing someone on our conscious, even if it were justified.
So the thing we settled on was … he should have shot him in the leg or the foot.
It took a week of people using the bottle as ranch sauce before the owners realized that customers were quietly eating hand sanitizer and complaining about the flavor.
If they hadn’t put up the sign … people would still be eating hand sanitizer.
It’s the world we live in today.
:(

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Those white American Christian males are the greatest threat to life and prosperity this world has ever known.English
91·2 days agoAs a brown Indigenous Canadian … I’d like to agree with you but you’re wrong.
The greatest threat to life and prosperity to the world is billionaires no matter their gender, skin colour, race, nationality or religion.
I think God would want to meet them just to see the look on their face when he told them they were going to hell.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Is entertainment getting worse or am I getting old?English
48·2 days agoMy favorite part to that is to discover something for the first time, fall in love with it, think it’s the most amazing thing ever … then realize that it’s ten years old and everyone got excited about it a long time ago.
But it also means I don’t give a shit anymore and I just enjoy watching things that make me happy and interest me, instead of trying to chase after the latest fad.
When American Christians get to the afterlife and meet god …

Fuck Cars@lemmy.world•Air passengers exposed to extremely high levels of ultrafine particle pollution, study findsEnglish
20·3 days agoWhen you sit in your seat and during take off or landing you can literally smell the fuel or its exhaust in the cabin, you have to be pretty dumb to think that the corporation that designed the aircraft has your best interests at heart … or that the airline company that now owns the aircraft will say anything about it.
Some airlines are better about it than others but I’ve been on some smaller aircraft and it’s amazing the sense of the air quality when you’re in your seat inside a sealed air compartment and you can still smell the engines.
It’s not a racial thing … it’s a money and wealth thing
If blacks had a bunch of billionaires and owned majority wealth in the world and had easy access and control of the largest military in the world … then racial profiling according to skin colour would be a lot different
It’s about the money … it’s always about the money

A Boring Dystopia@lemmy.world•Ms Rachel forced to hire security over Zionist threatsEnglish
71·3 days ago… and if you look at the background and ancestry of many of the leadership of Zionism, they have more of an affinity to European culture than they do to the Middle East. Many of them are either from Eastern Europe or are a generation removed from European culture.

371·3 days agoIn the same league as nazis, neo-nazis, white supremacists
Groups that claim all powerful, good given supremacy over everyone, yet shudder and run away at the first sign of being threatened. They are both simultaneously the most powerful and gifted humans on earth and also the most persecuted and threatened. Too powerful to fail, yet have to constantly fight against their powerful oppressors.
