Did you just come from /stupidpol?

[–] crime@hexbear.net 2 points 3 years ago (1 children)

so are you old or do you just not have black friends?

If I told you I "grew up with the Huxtables", how would you interpret that?

[–] Pezevenk@hexbear.net 2 points 3 years ago

I legit have no clue what this means lol

[–] crime@hexbear.net 2 points 3 years ago

ah, old then okay

[–] Bob@hexbear.net 2 points 3 years ago

gonna give this one only a moderate "pls go outside"

[–] Will2Live@hexbear.net 2 points 3 years ago (1 children)

Lmao dude maybe go out and meet some black people IRL and then you will see they have no problem with you using these words.

[–] LoMeinTenants@hexbear.net 0 points 3 years ago (2 children)

That's the Bill Maher excuse for not being woke. Gets offended for John Leguizamo using Latinx because "only 3% of Latinos use it" The march is forward, not to the "good ol' days."

excuse for not being woke

Wow look who just appropriated AAVE. Hypocrite much?

See how fucking ridiculous this gets to be?

Am I supposed to stop listening to black music? Stop going to hip hop dance class? Am I still allowed to watch Chris Rock?

Do i have to quit my jazz band because we are an all white/latino group appropriating black music...?

There is a line to be drawn with cultural appropriation but saying "lit" is not it

And i am someone who most of my hobbies revolve around some form of black culture and not one black person has ever complained about my "wokeness" or whatever the fuck

Sorry I hate to bust out the "wokescolds" term but you guys are literally being a bunch of fucking woke scolds

Can't have a struggle session without someone pivoting to ridicule.

If you have a friend it should be okay.

Do i have to quit my jazz band because we are an all white/latino group appropriating black music…?

If you're appropriating (your words, not mine) that's an iffy yellow card.

And i am someone who most of my hobbies revolve around some form of black culture and not one black person has ever complained about my “wokeness” or whatever the fuck

Just because people don't say something doesn't mean they don't harbor the thoughts. How do you think they'd feel seeing you get all worked up about such a benign topic?

[–] hogposting@hexbear.net 1 points 3 years ago

seeing you get all worked up about such a benign topic

This ain't it

[–] Bob@hexbear.net 1 points 3 years ago

is listening to jazz an example of blackear

[–] eduardog3000@hexbear.net 1 points 3 years ago (1 children)

Latinx is fucking stupid. It makes no sense in either English or Spanish.

[–] LoMeinTenants@hexbear.net 0 points 3 years ago (1 children)

That's because you're not pronouncing it right. It's latinx.

[–] eduardog3000@hexbear.net 1 points 3 years ago* (last edited 3 years ago)

Latin equis? That sounds like something a stupid white anglo came up with without even thinking about how it would sound in Spanish.

Latinos is already gender neutral. But if you think that's too male oriented at least use something that sounds good, like latines.

I can... appreciate the sentiment in the same way aging boomers fetishize their kids slang to stay young, but I’ve been concerned that claims of cultural appropriation outside of power- or profit-oriented situations approach cultural segregation and isolationism.

Woke: Banning racial slurs that are tied to decades or sometimes centuries or systemic oppression

Broke: Banning words that get trendy for about six months because the were originally trendy within a minority community

Bespoke: Banning all English-speaking countries.

actually lets go ahead and do that last one.

[–] feeeq@hexbear.net 2 points 3 years ago (1 children)

just dont use any words. Under communism we will revert to grunting

[–] Pezevenk@hexbear.net 2 points 3 years ago

Real anprim hours.

[–] TheJoker@hexbear.net 2 points 3 years ago (2 children)

Bro I will literally fight you for the right to say lit, I’m never gonna stop saying dumb shit and there’s nothing you can do to stop me.

[–] gay@hexbear.net 1 points 3 years ago* (last edited 3 years ago)

How about another joke Murray. What do you get when you take a man's right to say "lit"? What you fucking deserve! :ak47:

[–] LoMeinTenants@hexbear.net 0 points 3 years ago (1 children)

Bro I will literally fight you for the right to say ******, I’m never gonna stop saying dumb shit and there’s nothing you can do to stop me.

[–] TheJoker@hexbear.net 2 points 3 years ago (1 children)

Are you comparing lit to the n-word? Cuz you better fuckin not be dawg

[–] LoMeinTenants@hexbear.net 0 points 3 years ago (1 children)

All things come to pass, brother.

Sorry, I teach high school and can only be told I'm being mad extra so many times before it starts seeping into my brain

[–] Mardoniush@hexbear.net 1 points 3 years ago (1 children)

Who the fuck has used "fleek" in the last 5 years?

[–] LoMeinTenants@hexbear.net 1 points 3 years ago

Moms who still watch Ellen.

[–] Zuzak@hexbear.net 1 points 3 years ago

My apologies, from now on I'll just go around yelling stuff like "Deus vult!" and "The South will rise again!" at people because cultures must remain seperate and pure and by cultures I ofc mean races.

[–] happybadger@hexbear.net 1 points 3 years ago

I would like one [racial slur] large milkshake, chocolate please. Oh no, just [racial slur] chocolate. Dutch is too rich.

[–] soyboy@hexbear.net 1 points 3 years ago (1 children)

dude, you missed some, you're not being woke enough

btw, it's a pretty america-centric thing to make such a minefield out of the most universal language on earth. how do you expect non-native speakers to keep up with this shit?

[–] LoMeinTenants@hexbear.net 0 points 3 years ago (1 children)

Critical race theory as part of their naturalization process.

[–] soyboy@hexbear.net 1 points 3 years ago

"Hello, yes, I'd like a basic pizza with extra cheese for my swim squad. What's that? I'm cancelled?"

[–] gay@hexbear.net 1 points 3 years ago

AAVE isn't just a bunch of expressions, this is such a superficial take that you might as well not say it.
