Make $2,000 a week working from home?

Exactly. Progressives and enlightened "woke" people can be just as smug, bullying and arrogant as any other group. It's really a perfect niche for Cartman, because it renders him immune to criticism from the other kids, and he loves that. Reminds me of the Tourette's episode.

Oh, oh! 'Member when he made Scott Tenorman eat his parents? I 'member!

"You're hilarious, babe. Get over it."

You're both right; Member Berries are a statement about endlessly re-hashed nostalgia and how it's essentially like a drug. People want to live in the past because the present sucks, and I don't just mean the current election. If you're in your early 30s today (as I am), you have bills, a job, responsibilities,

HA, I'm laughing already!

Mr. Trump, your silence will only incriminate you further!

"News out of the North today, it turns out Sansa Stark has left her new husband, Ramsay Bolton, citing irreconcilable differences. You see, she's more of a stay-at-home type, and he's more of a psychotic rapist murderer."
-Norm of House MacDonald

Well, incorrect on all those assumptions, pal. Never said you should ignore the existence of actual racism - I repeatedly said that it is a problem and should be exposed. Reading comprehension really isn't your thing, is it?

So the point I'm making is, can you really hate people for something embedded in their subconscious? And if it really is so ingrained, can you expect people to change overnight? The answer to both questions is "no", but that doesn't stop you from calling them assholes from your high horse.

That's very true. The all-mighty dollar rules all. It's a free-market system, and that comes with both good and bad aspects. I'll say this, I think if Black Panther does gangbusters at the box office, we can expect to see more mainstream movies with majority-black casts. And yes, JMP, this super-racist asshole here

See? THAT's what I'm looking for! Why not more specific examples like that? Why more of the endless circlejerk of, "There's a serious problem!" "Okay, who's causing it?" "Um… well… fuck you, that's who!"

Okay, Joe McCarthy. "Racism, racism everywhere! Just don't ask me to point out specific incidents or names, or you're a racist too! You dirty commies!"

That's the beauty of "institutional racism", it can be whatever you want it to be. It's subconscious, people don't even know they're doing it, but they're still making conscious decisions that effect people's lives. From subconscious thoughts that they don't even know they're having. So you, O wise and "woke"

So is "unintentional assault" a thing? "Sorry, your honor, I didn't mean to break his jaw, it was unintentional assault!" Either people are doing shit intentionally - they're racist - or they're not - they're insensitive, tone-deaf, uneducated, whatever you want to call it, but not racist. That's the problem here. You

Again, that's not racism. You can call it insensitivity, but racism denotes a specific choice to discriminate. To call it racism, yet also say people don't know they're doing it, would open the door for actual racist assholes to say shit like, "Wait, my bad, I didn't know calling them monkeys was racist! I had no

Hey, got any more words you'd like to shove in my mouth? I think there might still room in there! I never said "No one should ever be allowed to call out racism or misogyny!" Quite the contrary, people should endeavor to expose racism, and I literally, actually said that it should be called out when exposed.

So you were being insensitive. There's a huge difference between calling something "gay" as a pejorative, and saying, "Oh, you're gay? Well, I'm sure as shit not hiring you!" The first one could simply be that you weren't educated on the issue, as was the case in your story. The latter is intentional homophobia.

Really, yes, I am really invoking Orwell, a guy who also wrote about the concept of people being accused of crimes they didn't even know they were committing. So the question is, are they being intentionally racist or not? If they are, it shouldn't be too hard to get a scrap of evidence, especially in this day and age

Same here, and to be honest, they all kind of blur together. But they sure make for a fun couple of hours when you're watching them.
