I knew it! All a big misunderstanding

..

Nah

 

[sangreal]

I mean they are very clearly using a hard G, that's not how you say surgeon and it only makes sense they would say it that way to get the N word.

they weren't saying surgeon

the girl who posted it on instagram wrote it out as serggin cuff

they knew what they were doing

That seems more damning, never heard anyone say surgeon like that.

 

[rtcn63]

People are referring to Aesthetics post earlier in the thread

 

[Darryl M R]

The even funnier thing is a person on twitter claiming to be the sibling to one of the girls. Saying they didn’t realize it was gonna be uploaded.

So it’s cool to say racist shit on the low key???? Lmao.

Is it that white wannabe rapper dude?

el oh el

Ah ok. I was going off of what the earlier poster posted that claims to have a connection to them that they were saying surgeon cuff.

But yeah unless they are dumb as sticks they should have figured out nonsense words are probably backwards. It's BS.

 

[Ovid]

So one of those girls are a daughter of a co-worker of my wife's.

Apparently it's not so cut and dry. The girls were dared by another classmate to send him a video of them shouting "surgeon cuff". The video then got reversed and posted to Instagram.

It's still a shitty situation all around and who knows if the girls clued into what they were doing when they filmed it.

So sick of racists getting the benefit of the doubt.

It's clearly a hard G.

oh I see

I was going off an article that said the girl posted it to instagram, but Aesthetic says someone else did so who knows

but they clearly aren't saying surgeon. probably practiced too

 

[noquarter]

Definitely intentional and they knew exactly what they were doing. Why the fuck would you say "serggin cuff" multiplle times like that?

Though for damage control they should upload a Sofa King video.

Yikes.

 

[Bishop89]

what the fuck.

Just look at the joy in their eyes when they're saying it.

This is ridiculous

 

[Einchy]

So, people randomly dare each other to say a nonsense word and then you record the video while you drive and multiple friends say it while giggling it up? It's obviously revered but there's no way they didn't know what they were saying.

[bounchfx]

expel them

 

[MagnaderAlpha]

Racism will go away as soon as old people die, right guys?

That's why WE gotta go after the young ones. *cracks knuckles*

 

[rjinaz]

The instagram text in the vid says they were saying sergin cuff not surgeon cuff

Yeah I was corrected earlier, I was going off of a post in here. It's clearly BS either way.

 

[Darryl M R]

Damage control at its finest. Tell them to name the student that dared them to say "sergin cuff" and then tell them to explain why they were so happy and ecstatic to do so.

Pretty much

Edit: just saw that ninja edit

 

[googleplex]

Definitely intentional.

Obviously it was fucking intentional. But some people can't help themselves when it comes to defending the we poor persecuted lily-white maidens.

 

[rjinaz]

what the fuck.

I can tell you how my teenage niece would look if she actually was tricked into this, she would look incredulous, like this is stupid, and maybe unsure. Any of those expressions would have hinted at a trick.

These girls were very certain and thrilled at what they were saying.

 

[manakel]

I was like why do they sound like demons? 🤔 I see now that the video is reversed. No words.

 

[Hubbl3]

Obviously it was fucking intentional.

???

I've said as much twice in this thread.

 

[googleplex]

I was agreeing with you

I don't think that "fucking" was directed at you, just the whole obviousness of the situation.

 

[Arkeband]

“Hey hold your tongue and say Apple”
“no it’ll sound like I’m saying asshole”
“Hey everyone chant nonsense words into your phone”
“OK”

Gotcha. The wording threw me off

 

[Subpar Spatula]

I could believe they were dared to say serggin cuff or whatever, it just means you gotta point the finger at the person who dared ya or else your reason is suuuuusssssssssspect.

 

[parrotbeak]

“Hey hold your tongue and say Apple”
“no it’ll sound like I’m saying asshole”

Exactly. If you don't know what the result will be, you're not going to scream it over and over while laughing.

 

[TAJ]

There's nothing funny about 'serggin cuff' but there is something funny about these girls' excuse.

 

[MIMIC]

Watching a news report where they say that the school says that the students seemed to be using an app that plays whatever they upload in reverse.

Relevant part at 1:30

EDIT: Didn't watch the video to the end. It descends into some random trash.

 

[TimeEffect]

definitely intentional then

 

[1upsuper]

I hope someone calmly explains to them that they will never get jobs, and that they have permanently ruined their reputations. Try as they might, they will never remove the stain of racism they so gleefully spilled on themselves for all to see.

But that would not be true. They will get jobs, become wives, mothers or lead out their lives how they see fit. They are very young.

It’s a sad state of affairs to see racism so engrained into our youth’s coulture. America is poisoned and sick, emboldened by a disgusting president and administration.

 

[Neo_Geo]

Yeah, there's something up here. That last girl in particular comes across super distorted as if reversed.

Edit: Guess that was the point.

Even when not playing the video in reverse, something is really really off about it, like it's still distorted somehow. A bit unnerving.

 

[norm9]

Haven't watched the vid, but if they're hot, I'm sure they're really sorry. Kids, ya know.

This is hilarious and the best excuse I've heard yet that I can't even be mad at such bull

Edit: omg you might be right? Whoaaaoaoaoa

Still they knew what they were saying regardless.

Pronounce "surgeon" in your head

 

[ken_matthews]

So who actually uploaded the video using the reverse app? That shouldn't be too difficult to find out. If it was one of the girls, then obviously there is no doubt that it was intentional and at least they should be suspended. But if somebody outside the group did it without them knowing, then I can definitely see them just going along with it without knowing that "sergon cuf" can be reversed into a racial slur. I have never head of this before, and if somebody said that phrase to me, the thought of how it would sound in reverse would never cross my mind. If somebody actually did that to them, then that is some really evil shit. The sad thing is, given today's social climate, they probably knew exactly what they were doing.

 

[Shadow Puppetry]

So what's a serggin cuff and what kind of dare is that?

 

[TaterTots]

Reminds me of someone telling you to say certain words as fast as you can 3x or something.

 

[Jeels]

I mean, if I were a cheerleader I'd be worried about getting a job too. This is a classic case of economic anxiety.

 

[0ptimusPayne]

Bruh...I just said surgeon cuff backwards on Snap just for a test..Yea it doest really work, and doesn't flow right like the video. They knew wtf they were doing, and just said that shit backwards.

 

[OG Shaka Zulu]

I don't think they are racists necessarily. They may have said it out of anger.

 

[lvl99 Pixel]

stop this meme. My entire family works with special needs and mentally ill, challenging the narrative that mental illness is at times a factor in atrocities and such does nothing but diminish the work my family does. You may think its used as nothing but a cop out for white male criminals but if white male criminals help increase funding for mental health research and workers through this narrative than all the better.

It really is a disgusting meme that appears every time without fail

Hmmmmmmmmm

Yeah, not convinced. Willing to be wrong, hope so, doubt it.

 

[Prototype Viktor]

Keep it classy.

(Probably just mentally ill, right guys??)

It will be mentally ill for when one of them or their friends get pregnant by a non white and they have a abortion to explain how they are still pro-life
