Hidden Figures

Can someone 'redpill' me on this movie? Is it complete leftist, revisionist history? I have a hard time believing three black females were responsible for the success of any astronauts getting into space. Where is the movie about Wernher Von Braun?

>black woman does her job well
>news because typically blacks do not do their jobs well
>news because women typically do not do their jobs well

Strange how they celebrating diversity is more racist than simply celebrating achievement.

They did simple math any monkey could do.

The last time a non-white contributed to NASA:

Or maybe it's because both black people and women have traditionally been discriminated against in fields like science?

For example Marie Curie discovered DNA yet 2 men stole the credit for it

Discard that shitte my nigga this is the only acceptable alternative

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Katherine_Johnson

>unironically an excellent person at math that did great work at NASA when NASA was actually going great stuff.

This.
Did you not know that the first person on the moon was a black woman?
And cancer was actually cured by a woman but they covered it up.
Oh and world hunger, women solved that years ago.

Exactly. Von Braun had a tremendous influence in traveling to space. In the space industry he is a household name.
Holywood is trying to cash in on the asspain of blacks by making some sweeping drama about how some black women were instrumental in the success of space flight. How some black woman at the eleventh hour suddenly saves NASA by figuring out what hundreds of scientists and engineers could not with all of their education and practice. This film was made so black mothers can bring their black daughters to the theater and tell them "see? you are important, you have history".
Meanwhile Von Braun rolls over in his grave.

Nice strawman.

Do you ever look in the mirror and think about how pathetic you are?

Lol. I bet you still laugh at e^pi*i = -1 jokes.

She's also mostly white.

The only reason why chimpanzees haven't built a supercomputer and mastered interstellar space travel is discrimination. Intelligence has nothing to do with it, right?

The film was whitewashed, the racism was exaggerated, as Katherine Johnson herself stated she never endured racism during her time with NASA...and in reality, it was southern white men that were doing the meat and potatoes of the mathematics.

The end.

Not often. I preoccupy my time more with trying to dispel the disinformation spread by women and minorities.

I am not saying she did great work, but that's not what the movie is about. It's about her being a black woman with a job.

I would happily sit back and watch a documentary about the discoveries she made and how it benefited our nation. But I'd rather punch pound my scrotum into a bloody red mist than watch "YOU'RE WELCOME WHITE MALES"

...

Definitely not a result of biological differences or lifestyle choices

It's a lie by omission really. What happens in the movie is mostly correct, but they forgot to leave out the fact that nobody was ever praised for doing the math, so they are just as "hidden" as the people who did the math on EVERY mission ever undertaken by NASA.

It's like they seek low paying jobs and cry about the wage gap.

It's public record that she was personally the reason that Mercury 6 mission flew that day because Glenn wanted her to check the flight profile numbers.

>flag on the "moon"

...

Who do you think (((they))) would prefer be known publically to the masses?

Three African women held back by (((racism))), misogyny,inequality and "backwards thinking" or thousands of German scientists with very colourful histories in the National Socialist regime of Germany?

Complete revisionist tripe.

'Calculators' were used by groups like NASA or the DOD in those days to crunch the numbers and free up the actual researchers and engineers to work on the hard shit like deriving equations and designing components. That's not to say they didn't serve a valuable function, but the movie makes it seem like a bunch of black woman doing high school math and using slide rules single-handedly saved the US space program.

Only one of the women in the film did anything of actual merit - credit where credit is due, Katherine Johnson went on to become a moderate contributor to NASA's computational division - but she doesn't even get the most focus in the film, and all the fucking shit about racial segregation is complete horseshit, not in the least because NASA wasn't fucking segregated in 1961. Part of the transition from the military organization NACA, to the civilian NASA in 1958 was that the agency was totally racially desegregated. All the stuff about the bathrooms and the black women getting bullied and shit was a total fabrication.

That's a great one but I wish it had the source in the image

>I have a hard time believing three black females were responsible for the success of any astronauts getting into space.

sounds like you're thinking clearly

next (((they'll))) tell you it was the negro janitors that were mostly to thank

>e^pi*i = -1
LMFAO NO WAY DUDE XD I CHECKED AND IT'S LEGIT XD

>astronauts
>space
subhuman niggers like you should be hanged

Katherine Johnson is an octaroon or less.

The black people are based on real people, every white character is based on "the spirit of the times" some of the "racist" things in the movie didn't really happen. Probably written by Jews.

If Leroy hadn't plugged in that Univac computer, the whole mission would have been doomed.

Yeah, yeah, keep strawmanning.

Maybe you'll believe it.

And? I don't really care she was 'half-black'. She did her job well and should be respected for that. Marie Curie also did great work and she was a french-polish mutt but I don't care about that either.

It's a movie glorifying secretaries and assistants to white rocket scientists

Yes, because vector calculus is something they teach in high school.

I think one of the greatest travesties is how ignored the work of Goddard is when speaking of rocketry.

Blacks care that 3% of her DNA was African even if she had blue eyes and a European brain.

WE WUZ SPACE ASTRONAUTS

Funny about that.

It's like race is a meme and we're all just folk.

They were computers, they were double checking math work that would then again be checked by others. Nobody was mistaken for a maid, they did nothing of any note, and the quadroon went to the far bathroom because she literally didn't know about the closer one, not because she was banned from it.

Quadroon did a good job and was a stellar employee by all accounts, though.

EXCUSE ME black lives matter!!!! It's because of pieces of SHIT like you that I made my instagram where we celebrate beautiful black queens instagram.com/shopangelicfever/ and don't even THINK about reporting me again on insta you stupid virgins!!!

Funny about that, it's like blacks who are successful at intellectual activities are actually white even though race is just a social construct

Still caught flak during the 60s for being "black"

...

Dude, what does that even mean?

>blue eyes
>fair skin
>brown hair
This is negroid in America. :)

>employee does the same job everyone does, re-checking calculations
>wow look these sheboons did everything the entire project rested on their shoulders

Thank god she was there! god knows no one else there could have solved the problem, they would have just threw their hands in the air muttering "it's hopeless..if only that black number girl was here...."

It means that African brains are not adapted to complex intellectual achievement, just as white muscles and legs are not adapted to sprinting competitions.

...

>Not believing in moon landing
>believing rando black women responsible for saving NASA

I call shenanigans on this chart. PHDs in hard sciences are so unlike PHDs in social sciences it's like they are not even the same thing.

I had a (female) relative get a PHD in "Something something HISTORY something something CHICANO WOMEN in something." It took her a few years, but reality she just did a fucking five thousand page book report.

And what did she get for her PHD? An extra 10k / per year at her education administration job, and new business cards with "PHD" added to them.

Half of education is a self perpetuating useless fucking racket.

>Marie Curie discovered DNA
oh god. please tell me you're joking.

In the 1960s, white people also "cared that 3% of her DNA was African" too.

Apparently I am having issues with nu-Sup Forums because I still only care about personal achievement.

Am I supposed to ignore that Ramanujan was a genius because he was from India and probably did shit in some streets when he was young?

Yea niggers are the same race as everyone else lmao

>Half of education is a self perpetuating useless fucking racket.
No, it almost all is. A lot of stuff you get an education for now was just taught on the job going back. Companies find that to be too much effort though.

During the space race there was a secret mission performed entirely by blacks. An all black mission control sent an all black astronaut team on a mission to Jupiter and back. It was never spoken of because racism. ( this is where the the term "black ops" originated)

I learned vectors in high school

Ah, so there should be no exceptions and whites should be given intellectual positions without proving themselves?

There's always exceptions and we're too hybridized for these kinds of generalization fallacies.

Or Glenn didn't trust the accuracy of anyone else and would not fly the mission until she checked them. You do realize that in this era, the computer results were less than consistent and that was the reason humans double and triple checked them, right? So there was independent confirmation?

Hard sciences just pay more.

And you might have done some pre-calc.

Trust me, plotting out orbits is a bit out of your wheelhouse.

Yes, vectors. Not vector calculus and matrix transformations.

>Can someone 'redpill' me on this movie?
it's a movie, don't spend any money on it, if you want to see it that bad wait until it's available at the library

there's always exceptions but by definition, exceptions are rare, and aren't very useful when you need an intelligent society to compete with other countries

now, think about the average IQ in China...

Ok
Matrix transformations wasn't until college but we did some basic vector calc like ijk derivatives and what not
Will agree that it's nothing compared to the higher level math they were doing but it can be introduced just fine to high school students

Same with basic understand of quantum properties in highschool chemistry. It's not impossible to learn, it's just beyond the scope of the course.

>believing in moon landing

Bleh don't get me into quantum shit, always hated being able to measure it but not see it, why I went into macro

muhfuggen rocket shieeep

Yes, because million dollar missions don't rely upon redundancy or hundreds of people doing their job, but hinge only on the dependency of one astronaut to one black woman. Fuck all of those other people right?

If race is a social construct, then blacks who are proud to be “black” are wrong. They can’t be proud of their race since elsewhere outside of societal communities, it doesn’t exist.

>"look guys i did an X-ray crystallography of DNA!"
>"oh cool, now we can figure out the molecular structure of DNA, based on the fact that we now know it's a double helix!"
>"w-wait, what about me? i helped!"

just because you can't into space, doesn't mean nobody else can either.

>he ACTUALLY believes it

>Depicts Gus Grissom being an idiot
I hate this movie just for this. The dude was was a stud
>Engineering from Purdue University
>Flew 100 combat missions in Korea
>Distinguished Flying Cross
>2nd Degree in Aeromechanics

If not killed in Apollo 1, he probably would have been the first man on the moon.

>he doesn't believe it
>he thinks russia wouldn't have had a stroke if it was faked

The most redpilled space movie ever.

youtube.com/watch?v=T6xJzAYYrX8

Ayo hol up

he knew the lander was a bad joke and wouldn't play along with faking the landing, so they burned him alive

F

What they did was pretty important, but so was just about any other persons job on the program, it isn't that they did anything groundbreaking, they didn't devise the methods by which the problem was solved (p sure the solution was built on frobenius' work) so the film is obviously a big "look black women helped too" but it isn't like they just booted up kerbal space program or CoaDE or something, this was back when NASA was great

Black women did not take the United States to the moon nor did Nasa

>Thinks the movie is about the moon landing

It was about the Mercury project.

this

>he doesn't know about secret societies
and who would believe the russians? did anyone listen to the arabs when they said israel did 9/11? has anyone in the west even heard their outcry?

I'm pretty sure they weren't doing vector calculus. Analytic geometry, sure. But once you know arithmetic with numbers, arithmetic with vectors isn't that much of a leap forward.

Prove it. Prove how black people have been discriminated. Prove how women have had less pay for the same job.

These are the REAL hidden figures (((they))) don't want you to talk about.

Bitch in the middle looks like Ice Cube

>muh israel did 9/11
if anyone, pakis probably did 9/11, it would explain why bin laden was hiding out right next to one of their military bases

Yeah, anyone who's seen the real nigress would know she was octaroon, quadroon at most.

Here's proof women get paid less for the same job

usmagazine.com/celebrity-news/pictures/catt-sadler-leaves-e-news-olivia-munn-jennifer-lawrence-react/amber-tamblyn/

I went to highscool with her. She was actually a really good student. Parents own a Reality company.

holy shit
and i'm done
you are too clueless to even bother trying

If the paki's did 9/11 the ground zero would have smelled like curry.

this. not to mention, johnson was damn near white...not some "sassy stronk black woman," as portrayed in the revisionist film.

I assume that you are kidding me. We were just speaking about the natural sciences, you just presented scandals from Hollywood.

Do you have a source of this "public record"? Other than her own recollections?
From what I have read she is never mentioned by Glenn in any interview or book he wrote.
Odd for being such a figure in his safety and success she would never have been mentioned before.

*picture of a proud BLACK WOMAN

>Marie Curie discovered DNA yet 2 men stole the credit for it
Here's your (you). This is how you bait, kids, read and learn.

>Hollywood tells us the space programme depended on nigger women
>It actually depended on not just white males but literal Nazis
Fuck this gay earth

You asked for proof women get paid less than men I showed you proof, then you move goalposts.

If she's white, so was Obama
