George Floyd (II): Say His Name

[Draylo]

You have expressed roughly zero views that align with Democrats, and repeatedly express right wing propaganda rhetoric.

False actually,. As I said , my views and opinions don't have to adhere to any one party. I would consider myselt centre left but recent events have been swaying that for sure.

[Draylo]

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Yes its an observation, dont see me calling for action do you? Was anyone not surprised?

[Ksandra]

While I dont care a private company caved in to pandering and will change their brand,

Yall forgot about Uncle Ben too, did him dirty.

Oh look another one as I was posting.

[BerenTebogo]

I really dont think I have seen anyone calling for old books or movies to be censored. They are what they are and they remind us of a worse time in history.

If watching an EP of LAW AND ORDER from 1992 where they call gay guys fairies or pillow munchers makes you cringe then congrats we’ve made progress

An observation you were the one to bring up. It wasn't even you responding to another poster. So clearly, you care.

Pillow Munchers.

Is that real? Holy shit thats rich. the 90's were wild.

Very much true. You sit here and whine about David Dorn, but where's the outrage when it's actually far right militia men burning things down and killing people?

You sit here and whine about the far left tearing down statues, but consistently ignore that there are literally Nazi's on the far right.

You were praising Fox News in the FFXIAH thread as being "real news", I don't know anyone that's left leaning that watches that channel for anything other than seeing what crazy shit the right is feeding its sheep. Not to mention Fox's legal argument is they're entertainment, and no reasonable person can expect facts. And again I reiterate...you praise Fox News, when Fox news says no reasonable person would do that...

100% along with a season 3 episode where the medical examiner gets raped by her OBGYN and the cops hem and haw over whether to do anything about because “his word versus hers” so she legit has to go let herself get raped again with a tape recorder on so they do something about it.

This was like 93 or 94

[Draylo]

Not really, I have never agreed with censoring of any kind. People dont need history to be changed and babied. Just made a comment about that specific brand because it was a little shocking to me. Why do I need to explain my posts? Lol

Something we can agree on.

[Lokus]

There have been calls for Aunt Jemima to rebrand for a long ass time, it's only now in the current climate that it's finally changing. I'm still waiting for examples of history being rewritten.

Washington Redskins still holding out hope people wont notice them again

[Ksandra]

The point of studying history is to progress and change and prevent having the bad side repeat itself.

The point of history is NOT to say, "Since we've always done it this way, we must always continue doing it this way; otherwise we are erasing history."

Changing a brand, removing a statue, etc. in no way shape or form erases history. It's just us moving away from it.

Sign Kaepernick, and rename the team at the same time. Bam. Problem solved.

Snyder might actually die from exposure to so many smart decisions at once.

Though I imagine no Redskins fans particularly would mind that..

How many times do we go over this? I already told you like 50 times, just because someone doesn't mention x thing, doesn't mean they dont care or somehow are downplaying it. If I had to list every single thing that bothered me, it would be a long list. Most of the posters here already cover that so youre essentially wanting an echo chamber that all mentions the same shit and nods in agreement, stop being so sensitive.

Also, i never said fox news was the real news. I said out of the networks they are saying things during this that I agree with and I was surprised because ive always despised fox news, which you can easily find that evidence before all this started. Youre twisting words to try and paint me as some fox thumper with a MAGA hat. I view all news sources to get info because they are all biased and you need to see thru the shit.

Pretty sure basically everyone here is getting this read off of your posts these last couple weeks.

[TummieGaruda]

Wow.. Aunt Jemima cancelled. Movies taken down, history being rewritten, statues destroyed or defaced. I wonder if they realize that literally no country is a saint and every single one has a past they can be called out on.

Do you not know the history of Aunt Jemima...let alone the name being racist

[Zealot]

Tearing down statues is a pretty regular part of history.

Can I speak from total ignorance and ask wtf is wrong with Aunt Jemima?
