It's why I call that nonsense out every time.

They know they're full of crap.

Yep yep.

 

[D i Z]

S'up.

 

[Frozenprince]

S'up.

Rained on my memorial day party.

Got like, 6 lbs of brisket that I'm gonna have to eat myself tho.

Gonna eat goooooood

I personally... Still don't get the idea of safe spaces, like segregated parts of Universities.

Dear White People feels like a very racist show too.

I don't know what I'm apparently missing, but the idea of exclusion (like those Reddit comments) seems alien to me.

Like, as a kid I disliked religion because it made kids feel different from each other.

 

[Imm0rt4l]

That thread gives you a glimpse into the extent of the liberal imagination. When folks say that gaf is leftist, know that they're full of shit. And recognize the ways in which liberals suck on the topic of race.

Have you seen Dear White People?

When I said repeatedly early early last year, that the only difference between most "liberals" and the GOP when it comes to race is one will tell you that you ain't shit to your face, the other will pretend you are while leaving you to die.

I got laughed at.

Called an idiot. A bigot.

Mhm.

Mmmmmmhm. Non-stop showing of asses since.

I laugh so much at NeoGAF is a liberal echo chamber, hivemind, bubble just because it bans outright bigotry.

It's just a better place than most on the internet because outright bigotry isn't tolerated.

 

[Izuna]

What...

Have you seen Dear White People?

Yes, and I hate it.

I thought it was going to be a comedy.

Listen, you're not wrong. And gaf showed it's whole ass on November 9th. Liberal think pieces decrying "identity politics causing division. ID politics is so blatantly pandering to cishet white male hegemony that it shoudln't even constitute as a dog whistle. It's racist/sexist shit writ-large.

 

[Frozenprince]

I mean, it is a comedy? It just also has a heavy dramatic element. But it's very much a comedy, it's meant to capture the feeling of being almost farcical, because it's satire.

You didn't watch Dear White People if you feel like it was racist.

Right? The bar is so fucking low. Congrats on not being 4chan I guess.

Shit in ten years we might clear the reddit bar.

HERE'S HOPING BAYBE

 

[Secret Fawful]

It used to be higher. I remember seeing topics full of grey names when I first joined. People didn't dare step out of line. Then you had posters like Devolution beating idiot's asses bloody.

[sits down in my rocking chair]

I remember it like it was yesterday.

I went to the ign message board once and it was cuck this, cuck that... and I was like oooooooook.

Death by brisket consumption would make great obituary material. He was a cut above the rest, always went against the grain. Off to meat his maker.

Good 'ol Cap.

 

[Forearm Star]

Hi all!
Hope you're all having better weather than up here in NY.

 

[Gordon Shumway]

Sup, brother?

And the answer to that tweet from Cap is pretty simple..he didn't write that.

 

[Frozenprince]

You can tell what he does and doesn't write, his syntax is very easy to tell apart from whatever aide he has writing his presidential tweets for him.

 

[Mizerman]

Hi all!

I'm in Florida. Weather alternates between "not so bad" and "why the fuck are you hostile?"

Define racist, 'cause I think you've got a different definition from the group here.

 

[Gordon Shumway]

Wrong thread..😏

That's what i thought, doesn't looks like it was wrtitten by a 5yo, or in crayon.

 

[Frozenprince]

That's what i thought, doesn't looks like it was wrtitten by a 5yo, or in crayon.

The actual use of commas to break the thought and lack of exclamation points after SAD! is what gives it away.

I was so disappointed when I looked out the window this morning. Memorial Day is usually my favorite holiday of the year.
I went back to FL Studio like I do when my plans for the day are done for.

A topic which was brought up in the very movie.

I laughed at the scene when it was posted on Reddit, and I thought that girl was "meant" to be ridiculous. And yet he movie follows her around as if she's the only one who has sense...

I keep telling myself "things are different in America". A black only festival in France doesn't compute with me.

I've been to Paris and Cannes, and you have black youth there integrating and mixing in groups of friends more than you do in the UK.

Like, where I work, in the Arndale in Manchester, I get bored and I look out for a group of young boys or girls that have a mix of races. It's been a couple months and I don't see it. "So it's not London", I think to myself. It's bizarre to me, and I don't understand why teenagers are like that here.

When I was a teen, I was in Kensington & Chelsea going to a private school and there was less obvious racism there.

If Dear White People is set in an elite college, the closest anecdotes is a relatively elite sixth form. Things have to be way different in the US if that movie is based on reality.

I can accept that. The race relations are different there. I don't accept that I somehow missed all of that stuff in the UK and was oblivious to it in France.

That doesn't answer his question. Your non-answer and your alignment with white reactionaries/racists is troubling. It reeks of internalized anti-blackness, seriously. Reflect on this shit. Like why are you even in this thread

 

[Frozenprince]

 

[Gordon Shumway]

 

[Frozenprince]

Young blood I strongly suggest you pick up a few books on racial inequity and injustice from Amazon.

I got some I can suggest to you.

Other than that. I ain't got the time nor the patience to try and pick apart your world view.

 

[FeenixRising]

Is this the part where I ask whom mans is this or....

 

[Sch1sm]

 

[Izuna]

So you have no idea what you're talking about?

All I can assume is that France is a little better than the UK with race relations, and I think such a thing would be bizarre where I live (and possibly counter-productive).

I'm in this thread because I like learning what I don't know.

"Go read a book" or emoji replies suggest I'm baffling you so much on how wrong I am, and yet I'm going into specifics and explaining why I feel this way with the intention of reading something that will change my mind.

I can be ignorant and very stupid, but I'm not going to change my opinion because it's the popular thing to do. I'd rather wait until I understand.

 

[hypernima]

Black ppl on gaf out here caping for racist colonialist empires while shitting on black femmes brehs.

Threads like that really make me greatful that the barbershop OT/Black culture thread ever became a thing. Some of y'all might be in the sunken place otherwise. Being around those toxic ass topics that would try to undermine your struggles is bad for us.

I had a class once about colonial exploits in Africa/Asia once.
People in that thread probably have no context to how vast and conformist the French Imperial complex's Nationalism propaganda was. When I read about it I was amazed at how they pulled off an all for one attitude, yet kept segregation in plain sight through the social/bureaucratic hierarchy. And the fact that people want a safe space now irks them? They must have no idea.

Shit he'd probably be fine reading just the first chapter of Wretched of the Earth.

 

[Imm0rt4l]

This is the part where we as nerds need to have an honest reckoning with the fact that black nerds are more susceptible to anti-black fuckshit. Like fr fr, that sort of menaity is why its important to carve out a space in otherwise toxic ass hobbies/communities. Cuz all skin folk ain't kinfolk.

Take Frozenprince up on his book offer and leave it at that. Then don't bring it up again until you've read what Frozen gives you and thought about it.

Anyfuckinghow, what y'alls having today? Burgers and dogs over here..

Because, and I say this not as an insult.

We don't know you. We don't know how you respond to certain things, said a certain way. We don't have the ability nor are we equipped to explain "Racial inequity 101" to every party. Which is why I suggested books to read (not to insult or push you away but because they are far more comprehensive and in depth than what I can tell you) and can recommend you some.

Gonna grill some lamb, maybe get some beef chunks and gizzards for suya.

Got my brisket and some burgers, potato salad and some grilled corn, me and the kid gonna eat.

Leftovers for a week. 😍😍
