Hyper Sensitivity...when thoughts are enough

It will get heated. Can't take it, don't open the forum.
Forum rules
We tolerate extreme views, assuming no actual discrimination against board-members occurs. We will let snowflakes melt from the heat.

The only way Halloween can be fun is if people wear blackface?
If D dresses as the Hitchhiker from Creepshow 2 wearing blackface it ruins your life?
Nope. Does it ruin your life if society doesn't want him to?
Having their feelings hurt and doesn't want him to, who gives a fuck. Forms a lynch mob and gets him fired from his job, that would piss me off.
Good thing that would never happen. Instead you'll have to settle for the harsh reality of a public figure losing her job and taking home 69 million dollars.
Really? With social media being what it is, no grunt has ever been fired over backlash found and/or gotten back to their employer? It's only the millionaire club.

Leftism: What New Ways Can We Be Offended, Today?




Live your life, and stop being offended at everything. ESPECIALLY being offended for other people.
atomic blonde. star wars. that's what we can offended by and it's okay. but black face is too far.
Who in the blue hell is offended by Atomic Blonde and Star Wars?
Not liking new-found uber female leads obviously the same as firing female for bullshit.

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. :P
This is a jumbled mess, not sure how to straighten it out...

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.
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.

i can see faults from the left. can you see faults from the right?

Just because you're triggered by my responses on subjects that back you into a corner where all you can do is resort to ad-hominem doesn't mean we get to change voting laws to suit your newly offended personality.
You're actually not capable of backing me into a corner. Please don't overstate your cleverness.

There have been cases of racists doing brazenly racist shit because they didn't think they'd be held accountable in any way and getting fired. Fuck them, they're parasites.

I know this is not addressed to me, but I was just angry at Trump and the gang that they are sending 800 troops to the border to stop that migrant caravan and not 8,000.

I was an idealist who evolved into a pragmatist. I'm sorry that I'm not going to stubbornly hold steadfast to beliefs that don't make sense to me anymore. I don't feel shame in evolving.

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.

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.

Would seriously like an answer to this:

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

Why would you wear blackface to be a Klingon?

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

Tell me about all the oppression LeBron James Jr. is facing that will grant him special rights to say and do things that some white trash kid in a trailer park can't do.

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.

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

Which one can say "Nigga, Nigga, Nigga" without being branded a racist? Is that because of his class or his race?
