So delighted for Troy Kotsur, he thoroughly deserved this and I hope he wins the Oscar too. This guy has had to work doubly hard to gain his achievements and I think he is very worthy of this honour.

[@lifesgood9528]

What a guy. He deserves any award in my eyes. Let us hope it paves the way for other amazing humans who have one less sense than most! Congratulations to Troy on a well deserved award x

@@aaroningl it's alot harder for deaf actors to get into the buisness. Producers still pick famous hearing actors over deaf actors to play deaf rolls. So yes. He had to work double so hard.

[@greencello599]

Performance isn't limited by what one can or cannot do. Troy and others like him have shown time and again that they can do the work just as well as anybody else. Would being able to hear help Troy in his life? Probably. He has lived without hearing his whole life though. How can he miss something he never had?

[@stephenfermoyle4578]

BRAVO to this man

[@NiVi192]

Oh my God yes, get me that man as 007!!! 😍😎🙏🏻 He's damn attractive, charismatic, intelligent, funny and so expressive without saying one word. I'd certainly pay to see him bring a deaf James Bond to live, because I think we would forget about the absence of a voice within the first 20 min. Besides, let's be honest, the stereotypical dialogues of 007 haven't exactly been award-winning material at all times.

[@m.j2124]

That was a joke, how could a deaf person become a spy?

[@NiVi192]

@M.J You're not familiar with the dope skills of deaf people, are you?! No offense here, but it might surprise you to hear that deaf people have been recruited in different sectors of spy agencies for decades, in the US since the 1880s! Of course, there are tasks and missions with which a deaf spy wouldn't get assigned, but don't believe that they have a less keen perception - It's quite the opposite. And I'm sure it comes in handy that no one suspects you to be a spy/agent, or that a deaf/deaf-mute is a lot harder to interrogate. 🕵🏽‍♂️ Anyway, I was just referring to Troy Kotsur's acting skills, personality, and looks. That reminded me of 007

[@Quaker-tc8ue]

Nice one, you genuinely are trying to show how dire things of the countries and it's citizens. Economically and other aspects. At this time the future doesn't look good. First thing. About solving a problem is to acknowledge it. It's doesn't look like the media wants to do , I hope your channel expand and bring awareness and opportunity to people. ❤️

Decades ago surfing the Caribbean met some guys who were outcasts and ever'body told me not to talk with. Turned out they were deaf...nowadays heardeficient. They were considered total lunatics. Only one person with little means trusted them with some odd jobs and tolerated them on the property so that at least they had a safeplace from violent bullying and some food. Some killed themselves, got killed or imprissoned for crimes not committed or were (sexually) abused and or pushed into prostitution. The reality of backdoor tourism, the other side of all inclusive package deal luxury resort holidays.
