The worst part about the “Tropic Thunder” kerfuffle was that even a cursory examination of the movie would show that the remark was intend to satirize hollywood types who exploit the mentally retarded to further their careers. It would be akin to protesting the use of the word “nigger” in Blazing Saddles.

You don’t necessarily have to see a movie to properly speak against it. But at least have the sense to find out what it’s about.
