Re: Hyper Sensitivity...when thoughts are enough
only bringing them up cause the right plays offended on stupid shit too. and it's still going. instead of calling it for the stupidity it is, you have to defend crying over casting of fictional characters.Reign in Blood wrote:This is a jumbled mess, not sure how to straighten it out...zombie wrote:Reign in Blood wrote:Not liking new-found uber female leads obviously the same as firing female for bullshit.Jason wrote:Who in the blue hell is offended by Atomic Blonde and Star Wars?zombie wrote:atomic blonde. star wars. that's what we can offended by and it's okay. but black face is too far.Jason wrote:The great thing about right-leaning politics is being grounded in reality.

Leftism: What New Ways Can We Be Offended, Today?
Live your life, and stop being offended at everything. ESPECIALLY being offended for other people.
Guess what, zombs, your fems didn't get shit-canned over non-sense.
i thought i was pretty clearly opposed to megyn kelly being booted. you guys want to pretend like having non-white men in a movie is worth crying over, but black face in real life is not. i call bullshit on both being cried over. that's the difference.
Correct, never stated otherwise, her booting was bullshit, you agree.
Never cited race, this was far more misogynistic, women over men in some of these roles is ridiculous. And correct, blackface on Halloween meant for a costume in fun is not.
Let us not twist and misconstrue.

But they can wear whiteface and they get carte blanche to say whatever the fuck they want, against police officers, medics etc now. That's definitely fun.Headhunter wrote:Tough world when white people can't wear blackface or say the n-word. How can we ever have fun or speak freely?

Well yeah that tends to be the case when you've been oppressed to a horrific degree for hundreds of years, and the effects of that oppression still shape socioeconomic conditions to this day.Reign in Blood wrote:But they can wear whiteface and they get carte blanche to say whatever the fuck they want, against police officers, medics etc now.

Is it racist to darken your skin to be a Klingon for Halloween? What about a Wakandan?

Anyway, do I believe it can be done with non-racist intent? Of course. Is the end result still racist? Yes.

Well, if I was to dress as Worf, a Klingon, I would want to darken my skin. If I was to dress as Data, an android, I would want to lighten my skin.Headhunter wrote:Why would you wear blackface to be a Klingon?Foo wrote:Would seriously like an answer to this:

Is dressing as either fictional character of fictional origin treated the same way? Are both racist?
