Uh oh….Trump says DeSantis is a groomer, posted with pictures of him drinking with his high school students when he was a teacher. Every accusation is an admission, and DeSantis accused teachers of being groomers…and Trump accused DeSantis.
Since it’s WELL documented how many “drink parties” Trump and Epstein held with only underage girls, WELL documented how many times Trump partied at Epstein’s and Epstein partied at Maralago AFTER he was convicted of multiple child rapes…so WELL documented that Trump is a consummate groomer, you are left with a choice of which child molesting groomer is you guy…which is you pick?
🤦‍♂️

Side note- Republicans are so dumb now, 5 have reported having their campaign accounts hacked and stolen last month, one lost over $150000. Maybe they should stop emailing with Russians.

OMG! Conservatives are outraged because ChatGPT won’t use racial slurs. Telling. (Morons).
Progressives don’t care that in the exact same scenario it also refuses to make fun of conservative pundits and billionaires.

Mom arrested after posing as 7th grade daughter in school

The bugs bunny quote was exactly my intent, @JiggaJonson , a mispronunciation of moron. I do not think Bugs was using a racial slur against Taz, but Looney tunes definitely got racist so what do I know?!
This is first I recall that I've ever heard it's a racial slur, although Cimarrón is a term I remember vaguely from history class. Thanks for the education.

BSR said:

Correct. I was a kid when I first heard it used. Later I always thought it was a deliberate mispronunciation of Moron for humor sake. For instance only a maroon would mispronounce it just as he also mispronounced ignoramus in this clip.

The New York Times Just Hired a Racist

newtboy says...

You say it is OK when Trump and his supporters do it.

Who said Satire? Anyone who looked at context.

"Jeong’s episode has also raised complicated questions about the stubborn nature of harassment that women of color face online. In a statement she posted to Twitter on Thursday, Jeong said she regretted the tweets and that they had been made as a satirical response to people who had harassed her because of her race and gender online. She included an image of the racial slurs directed at her and said she had used language that “mimicked” that of her harassers."

Self Defense?

newtboy says...

So, a woman or weaker man can just punch and scratch you in the face all day, and you'll do nothing and never fear for your safety?
I doubt it.
Get repeatedly physically attacked by a crazy, violent, race baiting, but smaller woman (or smaller man) then judge.
If it were a man exactly her size that hit him twice and hurled racial slurs, would you still think his reaction wrong? If not, you're just being sexist, if so, please explain.

Payback said:

I do have to say, after viewing the video, I'd have kicked his ass so hard he'd have to stand on his head to take a shit.

Unless she had a weapon, he was never in any danger. He just belted her because he was pissed off.

Self Defense?

newtboy says...

Answer-Yes, clearly self defense.

Nice snark, clearly directed at me, in your description @Buttle.

Mixon is not a disabled person or someone not used to violence, so it would clearly be harder to make a point that he feared for his life, but also clearly he should have feared for his safety, he was hit twice by a nutjob that was emboldened by idiots that think you can't hit a woman in the face...they have faces, don't they?

Had he gone to trial with the video, he probably wouldn't have been convicted of a thing, at worst it might be argued that it was mutual combat, even though it was clearly self defense, he even let her get away with the first physical attack and only (properly) retaliated after the second.
The incident was allegedly started by Molitor and her boyfriend who were loudly hurling racial slurs at Mixon, then attacked him physically when he tried to walk away....twice.

I think it's awful he took the plea, he should have stood up for himself, but I think the video proof wasn't made available to him so it was her word against his, and she claimed he was the sole aggressor. Sadly, because of people like the video poster who seem to believe that a woman attacker can't be defended against under any circumstances, he saw the writing on the wall that no matter how justified his actions were, he would likely be made to pay for them.

That woman shouldn't get a dime though, she clearly started the fight. Start a fight like a man with a man, you'll get punched like a man. That's called equality.

6 phrases with racist origins you may have been unaware

Babymech says...

It's worth noting though that in Europe the word Gypsy, or variants of Zigane / Zigeuner, is a racial slur and used in modern times in actual, horrifying violence against minorities. I mean to the point where it's used by the same people who paint swastikas on walls before they raze tent villages.

In the US this is obviously not a thing, and it still doesn't make sense to me to start writing G*p*y (I just see 'guppy' when I read that) but there is a history of racism against the Romani going back centuries, as well as a modern culture of extreme marginalization and exclusion.

I don't want Europeans to go around casually using the N-word and thinking that that's only a disgusting term when it's used in the US, so I guess I wouldn't want Americans going around casually saying Gypsy either, if it can be avoided?

newtboy said:

You mean like accidentally calling a person from Central America a Mexican? Yeah, that's because they're racist and assume they're SO much better than a Mexican (or Romani in your friends cases)....edut:at least that's how it looks to me.

I never thought "gypsy" was a slur, any more than Romani is. How would your 'friends' react to being called Romani I wonder?

I dislike this woman and I hope she impales her face on a set of golden antlers.

The etymology of racial slurs can be an amusing topic. Jigaboo, for example, comes from a bantu word for keeping your head bowed, implying servility. Nignog, a british classic, was originally nigmenog, which had no racial connotation and just meant a foolish person until some racists came along and said, 'hello, I know what that word sounds like', and appropriated it for their silly purposes.

6 phrases with racist origins you may have been unaware

newtboy says...

Wait...so she thinks if a word is used as a racial slur once it can never have another definition? I'm thinking specifically of "gypsy" here. How can one be upset that it wrongly labels Romani as Egyptian, and also claim it can't mean 'nomadic'? Language is fluid, and because a phrase or word might have a 'racist' origin does not mean it can't ever have another meaning. Duh.

I think many Romani are no longer nomadic because you can't just move across international borders without papers, and they historically refuse to do government paperwork, get IDs, pay taxes, etc. That's also why many were deported, they refused to live by the rules of the countries they were living in. Especially in todays climate, refusing to have a verifiable identity is considered unacceptable in many countries. This should surprise no one.

I actually had no idea this was used as a racial slur.

This is why I like Maher, even when I don't agree with him. He calls a spade a spade.

...And it should be noted that that phrase originated BEFORE the use of "spade" as a racist slur.

White Party - A Lesson in Cultural Appropriation

newtboy says...

There is "white trash". When I grew up in Texas, that was an insult considered more derogatory than most racial slurs (by white people, mostly overreacting about being called anything derogatory). I agree, not quite the stinging slur other 'races' contend with, but worse than "cracker" (which, from what I've been told, stems from white cowboys typically cracking whips, so I'm not sure how it's supposed to be derogatory, only that it is intended that way).
There's also 'peckerwood'....but I never could figure out what that's supposed to mean at all, just that it's intended to be insulting.

I love your point, that the only way 'whites' are really superior is in our ability to feel superior to others for no reason. Bravo, sir.

Now, suspending reason in favor of fear and ignorance is not just a white thing, it's a human thing, IMO. We whites may be somewhat more practiced at it, though, at least recently.

White Party - A Lesson in Cultural Appropriation

JustSaying says...

OK, here's a thing: colored people suck at racism.
There, I said it. I'm not even trolling here. Honestly, as wrong as racism is, white people are just better at it. Just take racial slurs, there are no good ones for white people. Cracker? Seriously? They're fucking delicious. Put cream cheese on me and I get even better.
Wanna be specific and call me a Kraut. I love Sauerkraut.
I'm a fat guy, you can not offend me by giving me food related names. Try harder next time. Actually, can anyone do better than this?
Even the argument about theme parties is crap, we're better at this than colored people are. The RNC, Nuremberg Rallies or even random Ku Klux Klan gatherings are far more offensive than anything black people could do. We, white people, out-racist (yes, that's a word now) everybody else without even trying. If there's one thing where white people are far more superiour than anybody else, it's having a feeling of superiority.
I'm not a racist, I believe we're all equally cruel, stupid and worthless. Humans aren't worth the flesh they're printed on. However, from time to time, you'll find out that there are some things a certain group of people is statistically better than others. Sometimes it's in the genes, sometimes it's in the culture but one thing I'm sure of, the actual worth of a human being is decided by its actions.
The truly interesting question is, why are white people so willing and able to take action against reason and empathy and favour fear and ignorance? The actual issue here is not the racism itself, it's the question why it comes so easily and thoughtlessly. Without effort.
