You never know what someone will say when under the cloak of anonymity – the only place safe enough to say what you really think without fear of personal or professional repercussions. Speaking with The Daily Beast, one anonymous voter for the upcoming Academy Awards refused to toe the politically-correct line to daringly state that diversity problems are overblown.
“When the #OscarsSoWhite backlash happened, we were all thrown under the bus by our own Academy for seemingly being biased,” the voter told the outlet. “So they added a lot more members, making sure it was diverse. But what also came out of that was an extra fringe benefit of youth. Suddenly an entire group of voters was plugged into social media in a way the older voters were not.”
