Racist jokes and crass humor is an infinitely better way to disarm and diminish racism.
Everything The Woke™️ has produced has only amplified the power and importance of racism. It has become *worse* because of their actions and behavior, not better.
We used to make all kinds of inappropriate racist and sexist jokes when I was in the army. If there was a line you shouldn't cross, we crossed it. It was also the most diverse and cohesive group of people I ever worked with.
Not in the military, but a similar experience. The guys and girls all seemed to know when it was joking and when it was hateful. If it ever got hateful, somebody's ass got checked for it. And everyone lived happily ever after.
Would love to know where this checking police is. And don’t tell me we police ourselves, fell for that one before.
We ABSOLUTELY policed ourselves. It was great. Free and open communication. Nobody let some out of bounds comment slide. If it pissed them off, they said something. It usually resulted in a simple apology, or further discussion, but always some mutual resolution.
Now the actual manifestation of all that was usually loud and included most every swear word in existence, but always a positive result.
Literally the only time there was a problem was when somebody got butthurt on behalf of somebody else. White-knighting for a lesbian or black guy or whatever. Those people never lasted long because they were constantly trying to find some unrighted wrong instead of getting on the team and doing their fucking job.
Kinda like banks policing themselves, all is fun and games until someone goes bankrupt
A few of us policed the hell outta somebody tda. Laughed and pointed at him. It was fun.
Mel Brooks and Dave Chappelle were on the right track
In europe we don't have such kind of things as wokism.
Anyway i'm 100% pro free humor and jokes, always
That's patently untrue, why would you say such things. Every country that has academia and well-to-do urbanites has wokism.
👍
One of the few things I loved about my youth in Cuba was that: we all expressed ourselves and no one was offended by those things, black, one-eyed, cross-eyed, skinny, fat... among many others
Whole Carribean is like that afaik
Dear Guy,
This is a sweet post that shows your nativity.
It was never about making it better you fucking ding-dong.
Meh, you are not entirely wrong, but there is a phenomenon of moral outrage that seems to emerge only when a problem is solved well enough to make every coward feel safe in being outspoken about it. It's only when everyone already generally agrees that the weakest people feel safe in being loud about something in tones of moral righteousness. But then they tend to twist it in a way to magnify the problem or prevent it from actually going away, so that they can continue to use it as a bludgeon to attack others & increase their relative social status.
lol, I didn’t say it was. There are TONS of people who legit think they are “stopping racism” as they tout explicit racism because they were brainwashed into their position. Those are the people I’m talking to. If I just call them racist, nobody is gonna listen 🤣
Regardless of momentary societal definitions of right, wrong, importance, or indifference; power projection will never die. Groups will organize for self interest.
Currently, race based assemblies are discouraged allowing class-based assemblies to silently divide the masses from the masters.
Find your battlefield, project your power. My battlefield is the economy. My weapon is Bitcoin.
Woah there nigga
Bingo!
Lol
I don't know about importance
For them it certainly does. They have made race the absolute center of everything. I mean shit there are literally academic papers about how chocolate milk is racist.
Not sure those who are the targets of racist “jokes” would agree with you…
They used to agree so much before the woke psyop... We all used to laugh together.
I still remember. THE WORLD IS FUCKED UP NOW. Time to fix it.
Can you go deeper into the 2nd paragraph?
Are they supposed to ignore it, act like it doesn’t exist, and not call it out? It’s funny that the white folks call the black folks woke. Of course they don’t see it. They didn’t have to grow up dealing with it. Slavery didn’t exist, Jim Crow LAWS didn’t exist, Segregation didn’t exist, and it just poof-disappeared. Everybody is equal now. No more issues.
Literally none of what you said has anything to do with my comment or point I was making.
I have come to conclude that racism today is more of a governmental politically loaded and created issue to set us up against each other.
There is nothing wrong with expressing what or who you feel comfortable with as an individual, only this way another indivual is informed about your preferences and may even challenge them or prove them wrong trough conversation.
We're naturally uncomfortable with what we don't know. We can keep it this way or start to investigate and learn a thing about other peoples ways.
My believe is that no-one is born a racist. But we are all born ignorent and uninformed, dealing with what we know.
Wokism is trying to "inform" society from a top down aproach that rasism is a thing to be concerned about. Ignoring the individual's capacity to think and rationalise themselves.
Wokism is extreme leftism and forcing a fixed ideology upon the people. The issue is not the narrative (racism, gender,), but the few who want to control the many through forcing ideology upon them.
Fuck the totalitarians, be yourself and do what you think is right.
These days I really do think that racism can only rise to prominence from state sponsorship; statism by proxy. No coincidence that people who tend to that bias highly prefer autocratic regimes.
Over the holidays, I saw a plastic statue of a black Santa Claus in a shop. Giving Santa black skin does nothing to bridge any cultural gaps--they're just turning everyone into white people. That gave me another clue to what wokism is trying to achieve
Indeed!
There is no one-way top-down fix to solve all problems, it will only result in many more unintended consequenses.
Like we see with all the wars now or what we saw with the COVID mandates insanity... Or take all socialist/communist regimes which never worked in the past, all failed, but we can always try to do the same thing all over again and expect different results.
Also the definition of insanity (Einstein)
And jokes are always a thing naturally occurring in harsh conditions. It's a way of coping that seems to work.
Take a part of a hospital that deals with amputations, or the group of police sent out to clean up after someone jumped in front of a train or collecting body parts after a plane crash...
Crude jokes will make them (somewhat) cope with this bizarre situation they will find themselves in...
Daryl Davis is the personification of what can be done about fear of the unknown resulting in what we call racism. And guess what, It's not TELLING people how to behave...
Just giving them MORE information to work with to be able to make new judgements and make up their individual minds!
in-group preference is hip...
thanks _____!
