PC Bro's Strike Again on Blake Lively

[cawacko]

Cawacko, do people who are concerned about cultural appropriation have a right to share their opinion and concern? Do they have a right to speak out?

And in response we all have a right to tell them to fuck off if we want... you see its about a free exchange of opinions, but you are seeking to shut down one side of the debate.

I know nothing about you other than what you say about yourself on this board which could be true or not true (as is the same for all of us). What I've gathered is a successful middle aged white male who probably lives in a gated or largely white economically successful suburban community in Florida. And in the world you inhibit you probably don't read about or engage in a lot of the cultural battles that are happening in various communities across the country. And that's why the concept of cultural appropriation and what is racism here is foreign to you.

It's real easy to sound high minded when sitting atop your lofty perch but your responses here show you really don't understand what this whole debate is about. You do not see the big picture here.

I don't live in a gated community, but the rest of your observations are true. So, I ask you again, explain it to me. What am I missing about this PC argument. To me it seems to be people not liking it when someone calls them out on something. Simple as that, and people have become so sensitive they get hurt and refuse to stand up for themselves and say... no, this is not "cultural appropriation" or so what if it is "cultural appropriation" its not a bad thing. Let the debate happen, don't silence either side.

I prefer a bigot stand up and say, "I hate (fill in the blank) people", instead of hiding it. I like to know who I am dealing with. I wont vote for that person, I wont likely be friends with him, I doubt Id do business with him, but I would fight for his right to say it!

People need to stand up for themselves or tell the haters to fuck off.

If you're really interested in learning look up White privilege and cultural appropriation and you'll understand why one can't do that (within the liberal mind frame)

1) South Park is freaking hilarious

2) You won't see a better take down and mocking of PC culture than on South Park

3) South Park is freaking hilarious

4) You actually embarrass yourself making that comment

4) You actually embarrass yourself admitting you watch it.

For sh*ts and giggles why is that?

Based on what you said in Post #37 (2), you watch it because "you won't see a better take down and mocking of PC culture than on South Park". Is it for shit's and giggles or for that?

I watch the show because I find it entertaining and hilarious.

My post to Jarod was trying to understand how he claims to like watching South Park yet have no clue about PC culture.

What does my comment have to do with you thinking it's embarrassing for someone to watch the show?

To each his own about what entertains.

Jarod has no clue. Is it a surprise he doesn't get what you say South Park does with PC?

Jarod, are you familiar with Tim Wise or Shaun King? (It's not a test or a bad thing if you don't know who they are. I'm just curious if you're familiar with their work)
