Why even compare 12 years a slave, Moonlight and Get Out to Black Panther?

There is a difference between "mentioning" and "comparing".

He did try to compare. He asked why people did not think 12YAS and Moonlight were "important" but that Black Panther was. That question implies that there is something about Black Panther that makes it unimportant or less important than the other films.

Leaving out the fact that he for some reason believes two Academy Award winning films are viewed as unimportant.

There is a difference between academy award winning and culturally relevant.

Depends on your culture. In film culture, it's pretty damn relevant.

This whole thing is about culture, ie, society. Don't try to re-frame it.

This whole thing is about movies. You're trying to reframe it.
