SJB - "Social Justice BullS+" ruined this movie. (Spoilers)

Let's check the SJW boxes.

Male hero is black.
Female hero is white (bad guy's wife).
Bad guy is white male that wants to destroy the world.
Bad guy has a oneitis on the female hero.
Good guy has a oneitis on the female hero.
The equivalent of 'Q' in James Bond movies is a young female scientist.
The inventor of the 'DoomsDay' algorithm, was a female scientist.
Male hero is ready to compromise the mission of saving the world in order to save the female hero.
Bad guy is killed by female hero.

I wish there was a searchable movie database with all these SJB.

I doubt he is scared of these groups but is rather commenting on the obvious recent trend and how it is fast becoming cliché.

None of these points are a problem. You are a problem, but I assume you're a troll. Even if you arent, you aren't worth much effort.

He caught a lot of flak for Dunkirk... All white boys, fighting and saving one another for the homeland against an imposing enemy... Survival... There are essays from the mainline press about this, so it's not some theory...

He had to make concessions to the establishment with the SJW stuff... Although he did it tastefully enough as he just put the "correct" casting rather than actually driving SJW themes...

Kind of like what Villeneuve did with Sicario, gender swapped the lead and added a black side kick. It changed some of the dynamic in that movie, but not too much, i.e. instead of experience men betraying and using a weaker and younger man, it became about a girl cop in a dangerous male world... So in that way, Tenet actually fairs well, although they could have chosen a less shit main actor
