And where do stereotypes come from?

Experience.
I like all three . . . I also like ribs.

I promise not to culturally appropriate chitlins, ham hocks, pigs feet, collard greens, hog jowl, or okra.

I'll take the ham hocks and okra.

One of my better practical jokes at work was, when I first heard of spotted dick, buying a six pack on Amazon and placing the cans in the coffee mess. It got some good laughs for a couple of weeks.  :laugh:
There was a "secret santa" gift exchange at work as part of the Christmas party . . . need I say more?  :rofl:

I like collard greens and okra.  We have both quite often.  I'd be willing to try the rest.
And I don't give a rat's heinie if it's cultural appropriation.  No one would have anything at all if we didn't culturally appropriate stuff.
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

Yelling at a white Dem president because 1960s white segregationists yelled.  But only if you're white of course.

"Woke" = the n-word

EVERYTHING that becomes an insult or criticism of leftists soon gets labeled as racist.  Leftists cannot take criticism of any kind.

They tried this same exact thing a while back, and no one cared. Everyone knows woke folks are white folks. Mainly.

That is because only certain "white people" can be made to feel guilt for something they did not do, something that they were never involved in, and the same could be said for most or all of their ancestors.  :facepalm:  [barf]

Nikki Haley

    Nikki Haley spends the first 1:00 selling the idea that America *isn’t* a racist country anymore.

    Kind of a weird take from someone who refuses to use her actual first name, “Nimrata,” because it’s too brown-person-sounding.

It was a silly take, anyway. Someone uses a nickname, and that's supposed to show racism? Really? Explain "Beto" O'Rourke, please. Better yet, explain Richard Anthony "Cheech" Marin. Hmmm?

The term picnic is often associated with lynchings of Black people in the United States, during which white spectators were said to have watched while eating, referring to them as picnics or other terms involving racial slurs against Black people.

President Biden’s comments on lynchings remind us why universities banned the word ‘picnic’

There's an Oscar-nominated movie out with a title that answers this thread about what's racist/white supremacy: Everything Everywhere All At Once.

That's just the title, the movie itself actually has nothing to do with this thread . . . but what utterly asinine garbage it is. I struggled to keep watching it, but finally gave up in disgust when the characters had to shove objects up their nethermost regions in order to access some less-likely parallel universe.

Oscar nominee for Best Picture . . .  :facepalm:

The part I enjoyed most about that movie was turning it off early rather than suffering all the way through it.

Taxes

Quote
A recent study by the Tax Policy Center, for example, found that Black couples on average face higher tax costs associated with marriage than White couples. It is part of a growing body of research that shows the tax code can create or reinforce economic disparities between Black households and White households.

Quote
The TPC study comes after the US Treasury released details on how to impute race and ethnicity on to tax data — an effort made in response to an executive order from President Joe Biden directing government agencies to better measure and advance racial equity.

However, there is “no easy solution to the racial disparities in the tax treatment of marriage in a tax code that doesn’t explicitly refer to race,” the TPC authors noted in a blog post.

So reading that link, there is no actual penalty.  It is only a result of the average family income and size and the actual tax codes have no racial component.  I would be curious if by the raw numbers of black/white families show more actual white families are affected, but as a percentage it skews toward black families. 

It seems to me that the tax code could get really screwed up if they started chasing these statistics with the tax code.  I guess that is probably the point. 

The best solution is to just ban the income tax and eliminate the 16th amendment.
