Maybe if he hadn't gone all scientology and stuck to shitty roles he'd be getting nominated too. You compare the last 4-7 movies he has done to Leo, you can see why he hasn't won much. There probably is still a bias against minorities in Hollywood, but is that really the most urgent place to fix racism? Not in policing, the justice system, lower income workers, welfare, education but Hollywood? Diversity in Hollywood would mean there'd be more ugly people, older people, boring people in leading roles - except then the audiences wouldn't watch the film. Fix the demand, not the supply.
