Same with the witch needing to work a regular job to not get noticed, of course a cashier makes more sense than a top scientist

But that whole Roald Dahl affair screams manufactured controversy

it's like an AI system was given a bunch of potentially offensive wording and ran wild with it...calling a person "tiny" sure I could see how someone could be offended by that but tiny drum? lol nonsense

That's wild, wtf what part of Germany you in, I was in Berlin a few months ago and didn't come across that. Interesting

What is the discretion, why is it okay to make a mockery of certain parameters beyond peoples control that they were born with, and not others? Is it the social ramifications of one, that the other does not have? We shouldn’t be making fun of people on TV for being LGBTQ, right - so shouldn’t the same courtesy extend to other qualities they were born with? It seems strange to take one so seriously and handwave another like ‘oh that one isn’t serious.’

When you put it that way, it makes it seem it seem more like a social precaution than anything else.

Woke white girls the absolute worst

It’s always the same type of simple minded people who can’t process a conversation past a surface level who think like this. And are usually guilty of some s*** too

Saying how was I supposed to know that from a glance while also on the other side throwing a rape accusation is crazy

hamburg. it’s not an everyday thing, but i’ve encountered it enough for it to get on my nerves. you can just tell when someone is trying to be „woke“ just for the sake of it. i hate those pretentious mfs with a passion

son lmaooooo insanity

I feel you are twisting or possibly just misinterpreting my words (admittedly I could have worded that better probably)...I'm not concerned with what somebody watches on tv or finds funny...did I say at any point that Chappelle or whoever shouldn't be ALLOWED to say offensive s*** about whatever group of people?..my point if anything was that they are allowed to so I don't understand why people act like there's some huge cancel culture conspiracy to silence them all lol Louis CK just did a MSG show like wtf...my initial post was someone complaining about people being too sensitive and that we "went too far" with cancel culture but couldn't back it up with any real points...I just mentioned Chappelle as someone who took the critiques of his act personally and now won't get away from the topic to where it's become all people talk about when it comes to the guy and overshadows his other s***...my other point being if someone is sensitive to something you said or did and expresses that to you...you should respect that instead of going into defensive mode about your right to be ignorant and continue upsetting them bc that's now bully s***

This one of the most waffling threads of all time

why cant mfs just enjoy s*** anymore

You can

niggas act like the content that you consume is inherently tied to your political / ethical beliefs

like i cant even say i like harry potter because niggas will think im a transphobe and ive seen it happen irl like f*** JKR ofc but just cause i like the story doesnt mean i like her

You're right and that is extreme but those ppl are idiots...I think there's a larger majority that still likes HP even if they don't like her anymore

im not usually a horshoe theory ass mf but niggas who are overly woke are the same class as mfs who want unadulterated free speech to me

like if you excuse racism, sexism, etc under the banner of "free speech" youre a goofy ofc but mfs who have to find an issue with everything are goofy as well

Was geht habub

The real corny s*** is the idiots who complain about free speech but don’t know the definition of free speech

Holy s*** shut up.

I feel that...especially with things like pronouns and whatnot it's fine to educate someone on what you prefer to be identified as and they should make an effort to respect those wishes but if they slip up occasionally I also don't think it should be the end of the world bc it's a relatively new thing and older generations just take time to understand things like that...doesn't mean there shouldn't be an effort made to respect their wishes though

You’re in Berlin and didn’t run across overzealous white women yet? F*** kinda Berlin you’re in, 1988?😂

Did anyone ever call you African-American

I was lmao I'm back in NY. But idk i got real lucky I suppose lmao

nah not really tbh
