Title: And now ...
Post by: Hawkmoon on November 05, 2017, 09:58:05 AM
... from a link I followed out of the Donna Brazile book discussion, we find (courtesy of the Washington Post) that the Pledge of Allegience is "nativist" and xenophobic.

While the language contained in the pledge is not overtly nativist or xenophobic...


Oh, so you're going to explain how the language is secretly nativistic or xenophobic? No? Oh, well then go write something intelligent.

I'm waiting for them to claim "I'm Dreaming of a White Christmas" is racist.

You're almost three years late on that one.

Yup, "White Christmas is racist" has been pooping up every year for a while now. Which always cracks me up given that one of the most popular versions is sung by a black group. I'd be curious to hear what the remaining members of The Drifters would say about the "racist" claim. In fact a good portion of the covers have been done by black singers/groups (well done, I might add).

In fact thinking about it, this is kinda like my "dark soul" thread, where the likely crybabies are white SJWs. Given not only the black groups that have sung this, but Bing Crosby making it onto the Harlem Hit Parade, black people seem to be able to process "color vs race" and "snow is white" better than many white people.

Is that a dog whistle, or a Freudian slip? Is it still OK to talk about Freud? He is a dead white male, after all.

Haha. You know, I'm not going to even edit it, because "pooping up" is more appropriate for the SJW whiners.  :laugh:

That's well beyond "fashionably late," eh?

How about using the term "white dwarf?"

And "hangin' from a white oak tree?"
