Rudolph is about how prejudice is bad. It's kind of hard to get that message across without depicting prejudice....

It *is* about how prejudice is bad, but it's about how prejudice is bad *because it makes prejudiced people lose out on potential opportunities for material gain,* rather than being about how *prejudice is bad because it hurts innocent people.* Still, if you're looking to Rankin-Bass specials to teach your kids their morality, you probably shouldn't be in charge of kids anyway.

In the case of Rudolf, the HufPo article is just flat wrong. Rudolf is accepted after he saves Clarice from the abominable snowman and her father realizes that, had he successfully driven off Rudolf, he would have lost his daughter. Rudolf gets accepted based on the merits of his actions and how he was the only one brave enough to stand up to the monster. The whole saving Christmas thing was just an afterthought because it was in the song and they needed to include it so it lined up with the song. This is what comes when you start from the perspective of righteous indignation being a pass-time, not from a perspective of wanting to see what's there and analyze the content.

[@Maniacman2030]

consider the following as well: with the whole "nose so bright" thing, santa wasn't doing that exclusively because rudolph looked useful (as santa could pilot his sleigh perfectly fine before rudolph came into the picture), he brought on rudolph because he saw how the other reindeer treeted rudolph and wanted to make rudolph feel included for once

​@@MacheTheFerretThen why was it that Santa specifically did this on a "foggy Christmas eve" and not any other possible year while planning Christmas or even that same year, especially _before_ Christmas eve? It makes it sound like Santa was desperate to find a way to get around the issue of fog. (Remember, it's a kids' song from a long time ago so the implications of him never encountering fog while delivering presents before or not having any other means of navigating through fog like logically should are overlooked).

[@michaelrobertson4298]

The whole point I think this is all started is when people forgot what 'trigger' actually meant. It's more commonly used now as a catch all term for 'anything shocking' or 'anything I don't like'. It was originally a term for something that could trigger a traumatic past memory. Like for example, if you were raped, and then you saw a movie which featured a rape scene, that could trigger some painful memories. One of these definitions is infinitely better than the other. But people forgot the good one and use the bad one constantly.

[@KenikoB]

It can also refer to a phobia trigger

Originally, that was a word used in a medical context, and within that context it had a very particular meaning, and was perfectly legitimate. Even when it started being used outside that context, it was pretty ridiculous (really, you're comparing being offended to PTSD? That seems like a huge stretch), but now it's totally ballooned out of control and is merely an insulting term for being upset.

[@namingisdifficult408]

Same. I cringe looking at my comments from a few years ago. Some of the channels I used to unironically watch were and are awful.

[@ivansoto9723]

@Luv Flowers Wow. I find this to be such a mature and wholesome comment. The thing is that I don't like internet drama and avoid it and use skepticism when anything arises that usually gets people worked up. I don't like outrage culture because it in itself is a mob mentality and it seems like those outraged or those who are outraged because others are outraged, seem to lose their ability to think for themselves and instead act in a very toxic way that only makes others extremely toxic. I also don't like conspiracy theories for similar reasons. From my perspective as someone who wanted nothing to do with either culture, they both had impeded on my lifestyle, except for whatever reason I more often ended up seeing more anti-SJW culture than SJW. Sometimes I even witnessed actual casual racism and anti-semetic behavior, and I have even been called out by people who took things too far imo, and then you have anti-sjw trolls somewhere in there. Both are toxic, and fighting against either one only polarizes things anymore, people are not paying attention to context. I got reported and had my name taken away because someone thought I was making fun of Jewish people, which I can kinda see why but they overreacted and didn't even give me a chance to explain why my username was "Jew5". 2017/18 it's banned and I can understand why, but what sucks is that if this were 2012 it probably wouldn't be. I've even been called out at a lunch table once, I was listening to a rant some girl was going on about, and I was agreeing like "Yeah, that's p retarded he would do that" as in that sucks, and got put on the spot. The times I encountered racist or anti-semitic behavior it was almost hard to tell if they were actually racist or just trying to piss people off very often. I love dark humor, but with context it's very easy to see the line between whats funny and whats intentionally hostile and offensive in a way that it's meant to hurt someone or disrespect them as much as possible. Sometimes it was a guy in match chat basically reading off anti-semitic propaganda, sometimes it was a friend of mine (Who never leaves his house, except to go to his shitty job at Roses, and so never hangs out with the group) He hangs out on 4chan and a bunch of Discord servers and screenshots and post memes from other servers that me, and my friend (The owner) find actually somewhat creepy, lame, or racist and disturbing. Sometimes the memes are just cringey, Doge memes, and other crap. Then they get somewhat weird because they are definitely furry memes, and then they are blatantly racist. I just don't find a black guy where a watermelon helmet with a shitty 2008 bold caption "king ni**ger is not amused" to be funny at all. Then he also posts quite a few Hitler memes once in a while. He's kinda our friend in real life and his excuse for not going outside before was that his Mother was a control freak but the dudes 18, we've been to his house and his mother seems fine with him leaving to friends houses. I think he's deliberately avoiding going to places, like he's been conditioned to stay home. He was willing to play D&D with us, but only through discord which was quickly denied. We are genuinely scared for his well being because we are reaching out to him, but he's not reaching out to us. He just want's to play games all day after work and look at memes and that's it and that's fine I guess, it's his time and he can do whatever he want with it. But everyday? He's an actual loser. This is just a rant. But this is just some things that I have experienced, that made me resent a lot of things. Owning libtards, Alex Jones conspiracies, Ben Shapiro, etc. just turned me so far away from that culture and made me resent it incredibly to the point that it was a bigger issue on my mind than SJW's. Perhaps because whatever outrage there was before I was just ignorantly and blissfully minding my own businesses and got caught up in the toxicity of two fights that I never wanted to be in the middle of to begin with, that at one point never existed as far as I knew before 2016. This was a lot of writing and most of it a rant but a lot that I've needed to get off of my mind while it's still there. Now anytime I see someone outraged over a post, screenshot, tweet, etc. I tell them to fact check it, make sure it's not photo shopped, and if there is solid evidence. Really it's the James Charles incident that really made me realize this, and made me always assume that I or anybody else could still be wrong and that the more sudden the outrage, then the *less* quickly we should draw conclusions. That we should also check ourselves for any bias as well before being outraged and ask why we are outraged.

[@GamingWolfGod]

The issue with making a movie where they replace the beloved character(s) with a different race, sexuality, or gender is that you are insulting those groups. By saying your making a Ghostbusters remake but with women you are implying that the only reason people would watch it is because it's called Ghostbusters. If you told me they were making a comedy ghost hunting movie in the style of Ghostbusters I would have probably gone "Hmm, sounds interesting." But by going "Remember that movie you all loved? Were remaking it but also changing it. The cast is ALL women and Chris Hemsworth. If you don't see it your sexist." this doesn't make me want to see a movie. You don't make or market a movie on the premise that it is James Bond but black. You make and market a new movie (maybe set in the same universe for crossover possibility) about a spy, that is it.

What people usually mean when they say "cultural appropriation" is "cultural mischaracterization". A good example is Nightmare Before Christmas. The film is about Jack getting tired of his own culture and trying to take pages from another culture while completely missing the nuance of the culture he tried to adopt. He wasn't wrong to want to enrich his life with a culture other than his own to break up the monotony, he needed to care enough about the culture he was adopting to make sure he was getting the right message from it and talked to Santa before kidnapping him and forcing a day off upon him. Jack wasn't malicious, he was just clueless. Treating him as malicious isn't productive... although you could argue he needed to be shot down by military to get some sense knocked into him since he was too gun-ho to listen. If he had grasped Christmas properly, it would have been a non-issue.

It was carelessness and overzealousness that led to disaster; which I think often tends to be the case in trying to incorporate another culture into your own.

2:00 About Rudolph’s father: Thinking about it, I’d argue that Donner’s character actually got better with the changing cultural context. Not better as in more morally sound-better as in more morally *complex.* In the sixties, he was just the archetypical strong father figure. Characters like him were in everything. He’s what the much-maligned Dumbass Dad trope was intended to subvert. He was not out of the ordinary, and he was not meant to be seen as out of the ordinary. Fifty years later, father characters like him are relatively rare, and that makes the audience see him differently. He was a stock character in the original airing, but since the environment around him’s evolved, he sticks out like a fish out of water. So even though the special itself hasn’t changed, I’d argue that his role within it has. He’s transformed from a standard family character into an anti-villain; the kind of character who does harmful things with good intentions. He’s not trying to save his own face with his abrasiveness and forcefulness; he actually *was* trying to help Rudolph out for Rudolph’s sake, but the way he tried to do it backfired and just ended up making him feel even more isolated than he would have otherwise. He’s not evil, but his actions still set the protagonist back and build into the conflict of the story, and since it does, it actually aids the message, and helps in showing exactly why fathers acting the way Donner does is seen as frowned upon now-it can lead to their kids feeling like they have nowhere to turn. It’s actually a pretty fascinating coincidence that a character that really didn’t have much thought or importance put into him ended up aging so in tune with the story he’s in.

I once worked with this girl who was THE social justice warrior. Every day she was ranting about something that was "sexist", and how hard it was to be a girl in science. I NEVER saw ANYONE be sexist to her or treat her differently because she was female. Often in lectures, the lecturer might say something that would upset her. She once went on a 15-minute rant about how mad she was at a lecturer for using the term "female academic". She was ranting on and on about how the lecturer had to specify the academic was female because otherwise everyone would assume the academic would be male, and therefore it was extremely sexist. One day, I said about how it shouldn't make a difference what gender someone is, so long as they can do the science. That is what I whole-heartedly believe about my field. If they can do the science, gender is irrelevant. I was trying to be "on her side" about this, because she did bring up some valid points amongst all the SJW-ness. At least, that women should definitely not be treated any differently in the field or seen as less capable than men. I said all this to her. What was her response? Oh it's golden. She responded with....... "Well, you would say that, as a white privileged male. You've had it easy. Try being female and then you can talk." I gave up at that point.

"They fall into any female stereotypes, they are setting the female movement back, they fall into none of them and they are just a man written as a woman" - Truer words never spoken. There's nothing wrong with having a strong female character or protagonist, just look at Lara Croft, Samus. And there's nothing wrong with having them be overly sexualised either i.e. Bayonetta. Which is another issue that I feel needs to be addressed, there's no problem in having overly sexual characters, male or female, its just that it will trigger someone somewhere because having this one sexy witch who has clothes made of her hair and when she attacks things she uses her hair so her clothes become more scarce, or risque, apparently that nullifies all of the female characters out there that aren't overly sexual, that AREN'T Bayonetta, never mind that fact that being overly sexual can just be another character trait like being brave or nerdy and doesn't make a character bad, if anything, in an era so prone to censoring anything considered mildly offensive, I find characters like Bayonetta to be a breath of fresh air, or even Space Dandy, who's entire character is just that he really loves ass and tiddies, and spends all of his money in a bar called "Boobies".

Good insight, Peridot! That is why I hated Nick Jennings' creative decision to remove Miss Bellum from The 2016 Powerpuff Girls BECAUSE she was overtly sexualized, and he didn't think of her as a character beyond that.

Well milk it's self is not racist, where that is coming from is the aryan nation and neo-nazis have decided to use "MILK" as a battle cry and symbol for ethnic cleansing, it is really stupid there are thousands of neo-nazis going around at their conventions screaming the word "milk" chugging gallons of milk and literally showering in it while screaming their messages about white supremacy, it is kind of funny honesty but that is where that is comming from, it is sort of like the situation with the swastika, a symbol created originally by Asian culture to represent good fortune or luck, but then the nazis used it as a rally cry for their message, there is nothing wrong with the symbol, the symbol never did anything wrong until someone decided to use it for their own purposes, I'm sure if you showed that symbol to just about anyone they would say it is a racist symbol not a symbol for good fortune and that is the problem neither were created for bad purposes everyone wants good luck, everyone has to use milk as an infant to survive, but anything can be bad if someone misuses it, all that being said I'm not going to stop drinking milk just because someone is relying around it, its food, but that is where the milk is racist comments are comming from, if you dont believe me Google is a wonderful tool

@dayzgone And, because you did copypasta, allow me to provide mine. We'll let the peanut gallery decide if they want my linguine or your rotini. 1. The second one culture is held above or below another, the groundwork for segregation, in its most clinical form, is laid. It's a basic technocratic argument that tries to subvert actual merit by claiming a mark on a checkbox matters when it doesn't. 2. I can assure you, as a white guy with a monitor tan, my love of rap music has come under fire, despite the fact that I care more about the history and culture than many black people. There was an interview to my recollection where a black rapper, name I forget, was saying that Eminem can never be a part of rap culture, only on the periphery of it, because he was white. Presumably sane people are advocating for things like that. 3. Considering I think the N-word is a word beyond redemption, and this is the prevailing view I see unless we dive into actual far-right circle-jerking, I call into question the prevalence of this issue in particular. I won't touch the link, because I've found that your interpretation of the evidence is arguably more important so that I know exactly what I'm arguing against. 4. Anita Sarkeesian spoke to the UN, an entire co-ed fraternity at my alma-mater was dominated by PC Snowflakes who turned their lounge into an orgy room and had professor support, and the only reason I give a damn about UC Berkeley is because they kicked a professor who was a Jew out because he showed up to teach on the "no-whites" day. PC Culture exists. There is no denying that a significant number of folks in the U.S. for certain, although the rest of the world most likely, fit the bill as a snowflake if we are to use the term clinically. 5. There is absolutely nothing stopping anyone from penning a work of their own, so long as they have a paper and a pencil. If you are going to object to that on the grounds that this takes too long, you should be made aware of Thomas Sowell, a black man whose experience growing up in Harlem is a significant support beam in his work in economics. I'll agree with you for completely different reasons, namely that this is manufactured outrage by a whole bunch of white people mixed with opportunistic minorities. 6. I'm not concerned whatsoever with the apology. I'm more concerned about the fact those tweets were made years ago out of a comic's mouth, the very person whose every statement ought to be taken with a shaker of salt because offense is a bread and butter staple of their profession. Carlin's shpiel on the words you cannot say on television was directly mocking what was thought to be offensive. 7. I mean... Anita Sarkeesian did at one point. We can argue how representative she is, but we cannot deny that she was awarded a lot of room to speak her piece, and that she got to be such a mouthpiece, she cannot just be dismissed outright. Not just anyone gets to go to the UN after all, if she's at fault, she should be the first one to be criticized. As for replacement, Ghostbusters was actively made worse by gender-swapping because there was no reason for them to be, and it came off as a snub to the fans. Had one been introduced naturally and organically, not many people would have cared. 8. I didn't know that was relevant. 9. Honey, I've spoken with actual Nazis before. If Mr. Enter is alt-right, I'm the next queen of Scotland. And I'm a dude in the U.S.A. 10. You're right. Because there wasn't a problem, or when there was, it had to do with something a lot less obvious. "There weren't amputee Australian(?) women running around on the front lines with cricket bats alongside Asian guys and their katanas," is a lot more obvious of a thing to notice as opposed to historical discrepancies regarding deployment locations. You're going to need evidence to show that there was a problem of an equally obvious nature before I'll buy that argument. 11. Demographic information can be watched. The evidence as shown by companies that cater to these sensibilities versus not are fairly stark. Last I checked, Kingdom Come: Deliverance, Cuphead, and A Hat in Time were all successes despite their respective outrages whereas Battlefield V is currently hemorrhaging money after their ad schedule, admittedly for a myriad of reasons. Largely speaking, there is no demographic to cater to in this situations. The only explanation is avoiding seemingly bad publicity with brownie points. 12. Maybe not, however the context presented was not just that. Left 4 Dead 1+2 has a diverse cast of characters and no one complains. The problem is making the main character fill a diversity checklist for the sake of filling the diversity checklist. That opens the door to diversity Mary Sues that no one likes. 13. If your instructors would have given this a failing grade, I worry about your education. College is a weird place, between philosophy professors having to grade all sorts of characters, from a man who thought the whole world was his perception, a la extreme solipsism, to the professor who had to teach a student who thought he was actually Christ, to some of my politics professors who had to grade Euroskeptics, a few communists, extreme pacifists (in a foreign policy class dealing with the many shades of war 24/7 no less), along with some fascist sympathizers, hardcore Randian objectivists, and extreme libertarians. A good professor can retain his objectivity. If your professors would fail Enter over here, they aren't teaching, they're indoctrinating, something I'm intimately familiar with since I knew a professor who used his position to preach to his class, someone I tried to get fired on grounds of incompetence (for reasons including that as well as the general apathy of the class and the view that his classes were widely seen as grade filler. He contributed nothing academically and actively endangered the department from a class popularity perspective is my point, with evidence from several ex students of his as support.)

[@deldarel]

Absolutely. While PC culture isn't inherently evil, but a major part is: taboo culture. The first part of the video basically defines it, and the problems it has. And with media, you can't win. You indeed either write a stereotype, a minority 'to behave like a cis white man', or if you dodge the bullet entirely you're literally satan for not being inclusive enough. And the catch-22 doesn't end here. If you do get it right and you've written a unicorn that can neither be the first nor the second, then they get angry because that character doesn't have enough oppression points. 'why is this black gay guy defying all odds and breaking the stereotype not a woman?' despite the partriarchical nature of many of the gangs so a woman would have been a different story: a story you weren't trying to tell. 'why does he not have any disabilities?' changes to 'why does he not have MY disabillities' when you actually do give him something. It never bloody ends.

the idea behind cultural appropriation is when the appropriation not only completely ignores the meaning of a certain thing. It's when important cultural events or items and whatnot are trivialized and made into a cool accessory to use and discard. The problem is that people find anyhing to be cultural apropriaton, to the point the actual term has lost its meaning and impact. Like, i rmember the sony conference, where a white guy started plaing a japanese instrument. Twitter shat itself over this "cultural apropriation", ignoring that the guy was one of the, like, 10 masters of that instrument, that has studied it his whole life.

I would say it qualifies as PC-culture based BS to add more women if any of the following occurs: -original female character with next to no flaws, great skills and accomplishments that "surprisingly" come to the lessening of other pre-established characters, often male characters (what I hear about Rey from the latest Star Wars films, but I haven't seen to discern well for myself - not a SciFi fan) -gender swapping male characters to female characters, just because they are thinking more women = better (Ghostbusters 2016) -women being added in fair amount to a story with a background where this makes little to no sense (Battlefield V was it?) -new female character is added, but somehow the writing immediately went to shit (what I hear about the latest Doctor Who... that and it seems weird that over 12 regenerations the Doctor suddenly is able to regenerate as another sex, but whatever) These kind of faults also apply to racial, sexual, religious minorities and the more eloquent in the anti-SJW community are very clear and quick to make this distinction.

Because Black Panther and Spider-Man (the latter being an assumption as I have not seen it yet) are good movies in themselves. They weren't just pandering, they had good movie elements. The entire fanbase of those movies isn't the SJWs, but people who were going to watch the movie even if it didn't have those pandering elements. A movie is allowed to pander to SJWs and still be successful, so long as its good in its own right. There are plenty of examples of good SJW pandering products, but I'm referring to the products that only try to pander or put pandering in front of everything else, which are the overwhelming majority when it comes to SJW products.

I've watched Doctor Who for years, but the new season I dropped even though I didn't want to because they decided to throw out good writing for throwing in a cast of a White man that married a black woman, their son, some South American woman, and making the character who has been a man for over 50 years a woman. There's nothing wrong with that inherently, but it becomes wrong when it's very clear they did it for the PC brownie points rather than any actual good story writing. The 5th Doctor on Twitter said how he thought that the choice to cast a woman as the lead made it so that little boys didn't have a role model, and he was harassed so much for it that he quit Twitter. There were also already so many amazingly well written female characters in the show, sometimes they actually were better written than the Doctor, and they all worked amazingly in the show. But nope, throw that all out so you can say the Doctor is a woman now and how that's amazing because it's gives girls representation.

Call it "false empowerment." They say stupid people follow stupid people (I'm not saying all of these offended people are stupid, some have good reasons, but I do want to compare.) Same thing can applied to offended people in these cases. This spike in things people are now considering "offensive" that others will obviously know are not is a problem in society, and it's one that will never go away (and if it does, it will take a lot of time and hard work.)

What's makes a difference is the people who can take the crap and deal with it, and the people who don't seem to know about self control. Also learning when to pick your battles and whether what you're fighting about is worth it. Now all of this stuff I learned from my parents and grandparents. So what really matters is how effective are the parents at doing their jobs.

I will never forget that one day around late 2017 when I (white British) showed up to dinner at university one day wearing a necklace my sister got me that had a large Africa-shaped pendant. She got it for me when she went to South Africa. I loved it. As soon as I walked in, I was getting stares. When I sat down, my friends advised me to remove the necklace since it could be seen as "cultural appropriation". I'd never even heard of that before. I couldn't BELIEVE that me wearing a necklace my sister got me from Africa could be seen as offensive just because it was in the shape of Africa. The ONLY person in the group that WASN'T worried about me wearing it was the one who is actually African-British. She did not seem best pleased that everyone ELSE had at least somewhat of a problem with me wearing it. Oy vey. This damned necklace caused a scene. Because it was in the shape of Africa. Holy fucking shit man. It was then that I realised that this "offensive" stuff had officially gone WAY off the deep end.

So, allow me to share a personal, and very recent, experience involving someone being "offended" and calling me a racist (she's not calling me a racist directly, but I am the "offender" so to speak). About 2-3 weeks ago (I work at a donut restaurant/cafe), a gentleman came in looking for a specific donut. Even though it was fairly early in the morning, we happen to be nearby a naval base, and we were already open for a few hours beforehand. The donut he was looking for was sold out for the day since we don't make it on site. They're made the day prior in a different location. I thanked him for his time and bid him farewell. Well, the next weekend, his wife comes in saying her husband felt uncomfortable and discriminated against, calling the person who worked at the front counter was racist. Unfortunately for me, that is where I work 90% of the time I'm there, and I'm there 5 days a week. So, yes, this "racist" was me. I didn't even remember this interaction with her husband because 1) we get so many customers a day, you have to show up a lot for me to remember them, and 2) I serve all colors of the rainbow with a smile and perky attitude because, y'know, *it's my fucking job*. I wouldn't even have remembered the scenario unless *we didn't have cameras fucking everywhere*. Once she pointed out the time and I could see it, I realized what had happened. So, next time someone wants to call me a racist, how about you get the guy who was "actually" discriminated against and have him tell me to my fucking face I'm a racist white bitch to all of my friends and other regulars of all colors of the rainbow. Oh, and don't tell literally every other store in the area I'm/my store a racist cunt because that's grounds for slander. Sorry, didn't mean to get so worked up, but I am offended (and I feel rightfully so) that I'm being labeled a racist for NOT HAVING A FUCKING DONUT TO SELL SOMEONE.

[@kylemacdougall8355]

Preach. I had a similar experience when I worked at a chocolate store. A black couple called the store to complain because they said I refused to serve them and passed them off to another employee. I didn't even remember this interaction, because I served so many customers per day, and because I regularly served customers of all colors. The fact that this couple was black would not have been noteworthy in our store. If I handed them off to another employee, it wasn't because they were black...it was probably because I was already helping another customer or was busy with something else. The couple decided to threaten my boss by saying that they were both lawyers, and the only way for my boss to get rid of them was to give them a $100 gift card. For all I know, the interaction they were describing never even happened, and they just made up the whole story in order to get money. It's pathetic...I feel like I hear similar stories of people pulling the race card way too often.

[@Nonjola]

This the problem with our society nowadays. People are just way to sensitive, to the point where an artist has to first look at a checklist to see what goes and what doesn't before he/she can really start working on the project. When I studied animation we couldn't do anything before we didn't made sure that everything in our shorts / pilots is up to the p.c. standards. This whole political correct climate in which we are living now is actually very toxic for every artist. Because with that many rules you can't really create something, you kinda have to follow a template. And that is something that no artist should do.

And Let's not get Started on the whole Self-entitlement that they have, claiming to be "God's Chosen", and badmouthing anyone who even thinks a little differently.

[@imightnotmakeit]

laqcuari98 cultural appropriation is when something deemed negative in one culture can be used by another and not be seen as bad, and is called something else. It’s not just the simple transferring of culture from one to another.

[@laqcuari98]

Asha Jo, I wanted to check to make sure, and cultural appropriation isn’t just something negative in one culture can be used by another, it’s exactly how he defined it in the video, it’s “the adoption of elements of a minority culture by members of the dominant culture.” And sure, “transferring from one culture to another” would be a more positive way of viewing it, but cultural appropriation is seen as negative, and that’s one of the issues MysteriousMrEnter talks about

[@imightnotmakeit]

laqcuari98 that is one of many definitions. But notice how Africans Americans are not upset about other cultures rapping, because it does not have a generally negative connotation. But when other caucasoid cultures wear braids and stuff like that (which is deemed unprofessional, dirty, etc.) there is a disagreement. It’s because something that is just being shared culture to culture is acculturation.

[@laqcuari98]

Asha Jo ok, so first of all, I know this is just nitpicking, but from what I’ve seen, African Americans have been upset by other cultures rapping. I just saw an article the other day about how white rappers are appropriating the rap genre. It’s not about the element being negative or positive, it’s about the element being key to the culture. But look, I understand you have your own views, and I want to respect that. I generally feel that getting into arguments never changes anyone’s mind, so I’m just gonna leave this alone.

[@fusetunes]

laqcuari98 i don’t think most pc people get mad about others eating spaghetti and such. as the other person said, i think the main problem they have is when people use items of great importance or items that get a minority a ‘bad reputation’ , and subsequently make said item ‘cool’ or misuse it. but thanks for having a good attitude about all this 🙏

The Rudolph thing I'm pretty sure was meant to be tongue and cheek. That's the thing about the 'anti-sjw' culture it tends to exaggerate how people think, so the 'sjw' is seen as mindless and lacking self-awareness. I'm pretty sure, being 'offended' is a matter of degree. You can disagree, as I do on some of the things, but not all criticism is the same 'apoplectic outrage'. Some things can be just someone wanting to bring up topics or conversations, and again you can say they are overthinking this or that but criticism and outrage are different things. When it comes to the things we consume, much of it is down to marketing. When someone removes or bans something it has more to do with the 'perception' of distaste, usually they are the ones that overthink it and react to nothing but then it is reflected on other people because they think in terms of costumer demand. Also I'm pretty sure people back then got pretty offended about certain things too (e.g: the 50s and such)

So let me get this straight. China has more people than America, to the point where Chinese people are basically a majority planet-wide. It is perfectly acceptable, in fact encouraged, that Chinese people embrace Chinese culture especially in their home country. But since America's majority happens to be white we have to shun and destroy anything from our own culture, especially in our home country. And then on the flip side, we're not allowed to embrace anyone else's culture. This is some amalgamation of problems that I'm going to refer as a double 22, a catch 22 and double standard in one.

I actually remember the My Little Pony situation, as I watched the show back then. The character was not supposed to come off as “mentally disabled”.

I agree. In animated movies today, they play it too safe! They add stupid unfunny jokes that they think kids will find it funny, some characters aren't that interested and the most biggest change are the animated movie villains. They aren't like they used to like scar, frollo, gaston, hades, etc. Now most animated villains are silly and pathetic and they don't get defeated by a very dark deadly fate. They get defeated in some silly way or jail. At least disney and pixar are still the ones who do good movies, but sadly they are still doing the dumb secret villain trope. But still thier movies are pretty good. But anyway, most animated movies are honestly ok but... They don't feel that good like they used to. Parents are just so overprotective to try to not let kids see dark moments in animated movies... Like seeing darkness and pure evil villains in animated movies showed us the reality that the real world isn't all happy and fairytale like and that there are bad people too, but this is why we learned from our childhood movies in being better people to help, accept others and not let bad people get the better of us. I honestly don't get why people hate the girl ghostbusters, i like both the guys and the girls ghostbusters. Many samurai Jack fans who said that jack is homo got so pissed all because it got revealed that he was straight all this time. Like... Seriously? They got offended all cuz Jack wasn't homo? I support lgbt but i honestly knew jack may not be homo and i was ok with it. Homo or not, i would've been ok with either way.

Am I the only person that notices all of this political stuff, both left and right is just limited to the internet and mainstream news? Despite what these two sources imply this kind of stuff is rarely seen in public, seriously how many of you have seen a SJW out in the real world? I haven’t. It leads me to one conclusion: this is all just blown out of the water by people and these kinds of people are about as rare as a four-leaf clover. Also the “offensive” argument works the other way around. The same people complaining about people being offended are the same group who get mad if a artist makes anything that stars a woman or gay or whatever. For example when the baby food company Gerber announced the new Gerber baby had Down syndrome, people complained that it was forced diversity. Now people can’t have these kinds of people be in their work for fear of being accused of pandering to SJWs. That’s censorship in itself.

[@PokemarioThe2nd]

Michael Griggs That’s the internet’s double-edged sword showing. It’s great for finding other people, but because it’s much easier to be anonymous online, it’s easier to say things that would get you dirty looks if you said it out loud. Stuff like claiming the Vegetales are racist would probably get you laughed at in real life, but online it’s easier to find someone crazy enough to agree or someone who’ll point to it and claim “everyone” thinks that way and is easily offended. It’s why I can’t really take the term SJW seriously anymore - it’s been used lately as the go-to insult for anything that can have “forced diversity” or be “too PC”, which are so broad you could apply it to practically anything.

Recently, we've also seen a similar controversy with "Baby, It's Cold Outside," which some claim glorifies rape even though the girl plans to leave to avoid being slut-shamed, and not necessarily because she wants to (this is very clear when you read or listen to the lyrics closely--the girl's reasons for going always center on her reputation and how others will think o thatf her if she stays overnight at the guy's house). As for the whole Rudolph thing, Santa really doesn't say much about Rudolph's nose at all, except for a brief moment where he scolds Donner during the "reindeer games" after the nose cover falls off. The point of the special is not that people will only accept you for doing something good, but rather that people should be accepted for their differences, because they just might be the ones you need when things go bad. This is pretty much what we've come to expect from left-wing media outlets like the Huffington Post, Vox, The Atlantic, CNN, and MSNBC. They care more about sensational stories on how every little piece of our culture is offensive or inappropriate, without actually analyzing them in detail. You are incorrect, however, about Uncle Tom's Cabin and Huck Finn being racist. Uncle Tom's Cabin was written by Harriet Beecher Stowe, an abolitionist, and was intended as an anti-racist and anti-slavery novel. When Abraham Lincoln met with Stowe, he even credited the book with starting the Civil War. Similarly, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn was intended as an anti-racist novel that created sympathy for its main black character, even though the book was written after the abolition of slavery in the US. 1:02 And speaking of La La Land, the PC police has called that movie racist as well. So are The Blind Side and King Kong. Ugh...will this madness EVER end!?!?!?!?

Wait, Peanuts is considered offensive? Man, South Park was right. PC babies don't always know what they're crying about.

2:10 this reminded me of something that happened to me back in 5th grade. i was a huge book nerd and i absolutely loved dolphins. i found this book called “white dolphin” (or it’s alternate title “ONE white dolphin”) which i ended up really liking. it was about a young boy finding an injured dolphin who happened to be albino. this boy who constantly bullied me would call my book racist whenever he got the chance. he would say things like, “what’s the sequel’s title? mexican dolphin?” it was insane. not to mention, he would pretty much say anything is racist. if someone said the word “black” (in something like “the computer screen is black.”), he would call out “that’s racist!” um...so yeah. i definitely agree with you saying something non-racist being called racist arguably makes it, well, racist. well said, mr. enter.

Another big problem is that many people, especially companys are not doing this because they care about any sort of political cause. They are doing this to look good while doing it. They are like toddlers arguing about how their imaginary friend is cooler that the other one, they just keep going bigger and bigger and bigger to a point where they can't even remember what they have already said.

This is my problem with "prejudice + power". How would you quantify social power? All the factors you would need to take into account would be a bigger conundrum than just saying "hating other races/genders/nationalities, believing they're inferior, or stereotyping to insane degrees is an ism or ist."

The left says white people are inherently racist because some white people still have power, and leftists cant be racist because not all of them have power. It's another of their lies meant to fool dumb people. Look up PragerU's video on their "Intersectionality" lie.

[@harleymitchelly5542]

@@JasonGodwin69 I'd prefer PSA Sitch's double parter on how "Power + Privilege" came into being. It's extremely in depth, and it also pre-empts people shouting down the point from the source because PragerU has a bad reputation, not all of it necessarily undeserved.

I've had the assumption for a long time now that the major reason everyone's going crazy is because everyone refuses to try and understand the people they disagree with. Maybe one day I should do something about it.

For those saying he is getting into politics your wrong. He is discussing culture. Your probably the same people that think Racism and Stereotypes are the same things.

Jason Leonardo ok my guy, politics affect culture and can shape it, the reason why minorities (generally) have a close family is because they’re driven to stay together because of policies, everything about a minority can be explained by policies that shaped them into it, by mr enter discussing the culture he’s directly talking about the people who shaped that culture, and the people that shape the culture which in this case are liberals, and since he’s talking about liberals being bad he’s arguing for the right
