But what if with cat lyrics?

The problem, as discussed downthread, is one easily solved with context. Just a little historical marker to properly contextualize the intended and actual meanings of the statues, along with a writeup about the levels of racism that must have been present in order for the statues to be in existence.

Someone always does. -_-

I worked for CFA inside their HQ in Atlanta. I know CFA very well. And while I will say that a lot of bullshit gets hurled at CFA and not all of it is reasonable, I’ll ALSO say that Paul is absolutely full of shit. He’s deluding himself either as to what the CFA owners are doing, or as to how stupid people are. Either…

lol
Get a load of this fucking chump:

Personally, I’m still for leaving the cheap, worthless statues. I seek no value in the statues themselves, but rather what they say about the people and places where they exist. Context goes a long way and replacing those statues’ preferred words of ostensible praise for ‘heroes’ with the more accurate descriptions of…

OTOH: I have always said leave the fucking statues where they were because they are a good reminder of not only slavery being bad, but just how caught up in white supremacy people were to actually erect statues of fucking racists. They shouldn’t be able to hide from that. Taking the statues down is akin to pretending…

OP spends a whole thread pissing and moaning about nir poor understanding of a subject, then fails to address the person who points this out to nym.
Yep. Sounds like the internet.

The trick with money is that you almost never need to do math; you only need to count.

OP’s not interested in actual musical creativity. Ne’s just shitposting because ne recently saw a video that ne took the wrong message from and wanted to share nis ignorance with everyone.
Note that he didn’t engage with my comment telling him the same things.

So you didn’t understand the point of the video and you don’t understand creativity in music composition (or any finite dataset)?

This is a common phenomenon that they teach you about when you take a first-aid course. If you ask “someone” to call the police, everyone assumes “someone” will. That’s why you never yell for someone or anyone to call the police. You PICK someone. In the moment, you choose and you point at them (either with your…

Hold on, you’re telling me a Twitch Streamer affects the patois of a smarmy dickhead when telling their viewers to fuck off? You mean to tell me that a person who streams their leisure activities to the entire world makes a big show about “pwning” the creeps that act inappropriately with her?! Surely not! You MUST be…

Looking forward to seeing this. Every Tarantino movie, so far, has been wildly entertaining and fascinatingly nuanced. Very much anticipating this new analog to the modern milieu.

If you’re looking to point some fingers, that would be at the conservatives who are insisting on the bullshit. It sucks when a valid message can’t get through because of the signal noise. But it happens.

Yeah. Well-meaning people often get involved in insensitive or controversial situations, due to their valid and reasonable intentions. That shouldn’t be so difficult for you to understand, yet here we are.

This is so tired. If christian politicians were constantly asked to reaffirm their commitment to America, in light of the treason and terrorism of the KKK, and in spite of their general vote history, demeanor, and prior statements, they might view this “innocent question” in a similar light.

“smartest” is a relative term. I mean, one would assume that this staffer is mostly surrounded by other Delaney staffers, so Delaney may very well be the smartest person that guy has met. Poor guy.

To be fair to your hypothetical Dan Hynes, there, the Irish actually were the closest thing we got to white slaves. Indentured servants that had immigrated with their masters. Not even close to the same thing as chattel slavery, but I’m just noting the coincidence that you picked that ethnicity as the butt of this…

Don’t be a fucking idiot. There were PLENTY of slaves in the antebellum South that weren’t black. Asians, Latinx, etc.
