Lol this dude is a democrat too, I wonder why that wasn’t mentioned in the title?

American Liberals like to bring up times where communist governments were racist or homophobic as if communism cannot evolve past bigotry, while completely ignoring that the Democratic Party only became associated with “progressivism” within the last half century, and even then many were still foaming with racism.

They're gonna run out of old timey slurs they can say without getting cancelled, and that's when they start moving into Elder Scrolls slurs and start calling people Swits and N'Wah

[–] Erika3sis@hexbear.net 18 points 1 year ago

Yeah I too like to call people Sw*ss as an insult

Wtf I keep learning new racial slurs from y'all, let me be innocent

[–] Othello@hexbear.net 18 points 1 year ago (1 children)

this is the first time I knew the slur, usually, I'm learning new ones.

Not my first time hearing tho. In fact, it features in a Spike Lee movie (probably several) called School Daze in a musical number called "Good And Bad Hair".

[–] invalidusernamelol@hexbear.net 26 points 1 year ago (1 children)

This one does definitely seem like just a slip up though, the slur doesn't make any sense in the context he used it in

[–] allthetimesivedied@hexbear.net 11 points 1 year ago

Yeah he could just have cottage cheese brain from smoking crack.

[–] buh@hexbear.net 22 points 1 year ago

very-intelligent it's actually a word for extremely frugal and stingy people

[–] FlakesBongler@hexbear.net 19 points 1 year ago

I know he's old, but Jesus christ, why would that word ever be on your mind?

White boomers still have so much “old timey” racism rattling around in their heads just waiting for the opportunity to escape. My dad once

cw racismasked his black coworker over to help him move a couch and kept calling him “boy” which I’d never heard him call anybody. Like this guy came over to help out of the kindness of his heart and you talk to him like that?

He’s a lifelong dem and considers himself progressive, of course. Glad I don’t talk to him anymore.

My dad lost it on me a few years ago when I told him he couldn’t use the n-word, even to illustrate that it was a bad word. He only chilled out when I showed him like twenty Washington Post articles agreeing with me.

He also lost it on me another time after we looked up the Uyghur genocide on google images and couldn’t find a single convincing photo. He was calm then, but later in the evening I said that Biden was just as much of a child molester as Trump and he went nuts.

I haven’t really spoken with my parents in two years. They voted Bernie/Biden in 2020. I check my dad’s twitter likes sometimes (he doesn’t tweet anything) and it’s almost always very apolitical things he’s liking. When 10/7 happened he wrote a lengthy boring facebook post about how all violence is wrong, an opinion which strangely does not apply to Ukraine for some reason.

My parents and I stopped talking after I found a copy of like a comic book version of one of Timothy Snyder’s books in their living room. I looked at the book and it was just relentless in claiming that Soviets and Nazis were the same. We argued about it pretty vehemently for awhile and that was it. Mentally I’m actually doing a lot better without having to deal with them.

Took a few minutes to convince the average bugaboo

I knew banjo was making a comeback, but I'd rather not see a return of minstrel shows.

[–] DinosaurThussy@hexbear.net 9 points 1 year ago

Steven Crowder does impressions of black people that are minstrel-tier caricatures. I wouldn’t be surprised if more “comedy” like this made a comeback.

[–] crispy_lol@hexbear.net 8 points 1 year ago

I only know the word because I’m so terminally online that in 2006 or so my friend who was 4 years older than me and addicted to pain pills sent me a parody song which was like a nursery rhyme for slur called “n-word hating me”. Early aughts and youtube was grim man.
