This is not some innate cultural feature; merely sloppy, uneducated poor English; and people who speak poor English typically stay poor.
This is called “deficit mindset” and is about how people make assumptions from the way a person (usually a child) talks and acts that that child is stupid or unable to perform at a high academic level. It’s also prejudicial. Language cues and slang use are in no way related to a person’s intelligence, the same way…
This is a perfect example of racial bias. You just equated “sounding Caucasian” with speaking “properly.” “Speaking properly without give-away intonations, expressions and speech patterns which allow people to...discriminate against you....” also shifts the responsibility to not discriminate to the victim of the…
So.....
Shhhhh...
Of course you equate excellence with being caucasian...

I concur. The beverage makes Toxic Masculinity seem palatable. I’d have named it Energized Feminist Base or Sweet Misandry (bonus points because either name would rattle dipshit MRAs).
This is all I have to add.
And here I was just thinking that I would probably hire someone to brush my teeth or wash my junk if I had that kind of money.
So many of my comments in real life and here and elsewhere on the web boil down to “Jesus, look at this fucking asshole right here”, and I mean to one day change that and cleanse myself of this all-consuming hatred, but Jesus, look at this asshole right here.
What a brazen play to be appointed Secretary of Eugenics. Heard the position is still open.
Yep. First one was good. The rest of them were basically beating a dead horse shaped pinata to see what came out.
I caught that awful 2005 version of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory this past weekend, and it was as if he was there and others were just acting around him. Depp’s Willy Wonka was mostly making weird faces and staring off into space. That, plus serving as lead-in for the weirdly racist oompa loompas.
I tied my own shoes once. It was an overrated experience.
Oh the first was great. It was fun, his character was hilarious, it was a well done movie in general. Kinda campy, but that fit when you’re you know, making a movie out of a cheesy theme park attraction.
There actually is something in that article that surprised me. I’m genuinely startled that Johnny Depp, who billed himself as a Capital-A Actor long after he started mostly doing big, dumb, family movies, doesn’t bother to memorize his lines anymore. Wasn’t that one of the signs that Marlon Brando had given up on…
This isn’t to excuse Eyre Festival, but if you are willing to fly somewhere and pay over 1k to see a music festival headlined by Blink 182 I just am never going to feel sorry for you.
The most heartbreaking part about this whole saga is that it may have forced a mediocre white tech dude to admit that he can’t do everything. I mean, can you imagine the pathos of that moment, when he realized that his misguided bravado and the penis swinging between his legs just weren’t enough anymore?
