I'm a fan of free speech. And art. But if the directors goal was to bridge any kind of racial divide by making people feel uncomfortable, he's late to the table . Right now, I reckon people of different races feel more uncomfortable than at any time over the last 30-40 years. And that's on both sides. I've talked to minorities who say they feel like they're not supposed to engage white people any more, and white people who feel like they are supposed to elevate someone just because they're a different race. It makes both pretty uncomfortable.

I'd like to say that matters to me, but it doesn't.

If just making this series from a three year old movie has upset a bunch of racists I'm all for it.  

Not because it causes any kind of greater divide.  No sir.  But because it shows people are on both sides of the divide (but near it) all the whack jobs who are running away from it screaming.  Both sides.

If a black tells someone that can never trust white people and to attack them....they need called out on that too.

The people who don't understand that we can just treat each other as equals and hate each other for real reasons other than skin tone deserve to be upset.

It's a comedy series.  On Netflix.

If Presidential policy doesn't upset people this shouldn't either.
