Elon Musk lays into Oscars as he reveals 'diversity quotas' for best picture nominees

Text Drivers are Killers

Joe Biden - "Time to put Trump in the bullseye."
Woke is everywhere. Black privilege is everywhere. Persecution of white men is everywhere.

march 3 2025 Elon Musk
has slammed the Academy over its 'messed up' representation and inclusion requirements for best picture nominees.

The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences requires that films must fit one of three diversity and inclusion criteria to be nominated for Best Motion Picture.

These include having an actor from a underrepresented racial or ethnic group in a lead role or a general ensemble cast in which 30 per cent of members are from at least two underrepresented groups - such as women, racial minorities, LGBTQ+, or people with disabilities.
The Tesla billionaire, a known critic of diversity and inclusion requirements, is now blasting the Oscars for limiting what are potentially the 'best' movies and stars from winning the award for best picture.

'This is messed up. Should just be who is best, not best with an asterisk!' Musk wrote on his social media platform X, retweeting a post with screenshots of the Academy's policies.
