Go watch the PBS ancestry show with Henry Louis Gates. The man’s entire family in Europe was killed in the Holocaust and preceding pogroms in Eastern Europe.
This reminds me of white people getting offended at Chris Rock’s N word routine. If you’re not Jewish please don’t get offended on my behalf when a fellow Jew tells a Jewish joke.
Ugh, can we not? There is no backlash. There are always a few idiots with a dumb “This is offensive!” take on something not offensive, and for some reason, the media likes to scour the internet for this tiny minority, amplify their platform, and make every liberal look like an idiot crybaby. Buzzfeed does it all the…
#2 “T Rex! What big hands you have!”
Why the hell are people “liking” that? What does a “like” on a statement like that even mean? He doesn’t admit or deny the allegations and the only “apology” he offers is couched in one passive weasel of a sentence that stresses he supposedly remembers nothing. If you’re congratulating him for coming out as a gay man,…
Russian flags = new glitter bomb.
It’s definitely an “I’m an asshole, not an overt racist” defense. Which there is probably a lot of truth to. But also thinking you can just goof about racism without seeming racist is a hell of a white privilege thing to do.
You know it’s possible to say things and not remember saying them because you grew up your entire life being able to say those things without repercussions or thinking about how your words/actions impact others. This is commonly known as privilege.
The best angle I’ve found is about walls. The plot of Peter & The Wolf requires Peter to pass across the garden wall - first through, then over. K/Joe is literally smashed through a wall at the beginning of the film. Then later Joshi says, “The world is built on a wall that separates kind,” invoking the symbolic walls…
Pinocchio would have been just too, uh, on the nose.
“Peter and the Wolf” was composed by Sergei Prokofiev. One of Prokofiev’s more famous works is “The Year 1941" 1+9+4+1 is 15. The 15th letter of the alphabet is “O”. “O” is the middle letter of both “Joe” and “Joi”. Pretty obvious if you think about it.
Wait...you mean to tell me that a white guy, with that facial hair, who makes his living on YouTube...is a piece of shit?
So it’s Metropolis meets wellness memes. Terrific.
“In order for nonviolence to work, your opponent must have a conscience” I don’t recall much violence against the Nazis in Charlottsivlle. Was that car being driven through the crowd part of the “battle of ideas”.
Is it possible the douche with the mic intentionally called the obvious girl a boy because he wanted to insult a kid wearing a hippie-dippy tie-dye t-shirt?
It was probably somebody named K’ath P’tondi or something like that. Somebody who probably tragically died from an overdose of apostrophes.
But unlike Kinja, it’s easier to look up past comments.
He’s like the Kinja of presidents: Ugly by design, never wants to work and is preoccupied with making everything a white space.
