This Movie is So Fucking Racist







I was watching Revenge of the Nerds recently and it hit me, this film is so fucking racist. Think about it for a second. Lamar, played by Larry B. Scott, is a gay black member of the fraternity Lamda Lamda Lamda. He is not particularly smart, he dresses appropriately, and he has no annoying behaviors, other than being black and homosexual. So, I ask myself, why is he a Nerd? Is he a nerd because he’s black? Because he’s gay? That’s really the only 2 choices you have, and both of them are quite bigoted. Every other member of the fraternity has an obvious reason for being there, except for Homo Lamar.

Also, this student body at Adams College might be the least diverse group of students ever. You get more diversity at Brigham Young University or Liberty University. Look at the football team, nothing but white guys. Not a black athlete in the bunch. Not a one. No black Alpha Betas either. What football team, even back in the 80’s, didn’t have at least a few black players? Watch the rest of the movie, barely any Asians or Latinos show up either. The end is especially poignant when the other Lamda Lamda Lamda brothers, and I mean the 15 huge black dudes, show up to protect the Nerds against the Alpha Betas. Watch as the Alpha Betas recoil in fear, apparently scared that the black fraternity might share their swimming pool.
