Don't worry. The fascist regime will be issuing counterfeit passes to anyone who wants one.

[–] Omegamanthethird@lemmy.world 65 points 8 months ago (3 children)

Really, it's racist to say that only black people can use it. /s

Real talk, every time I go home, my parents throw the word around everywhere (In their home. They suck, but aren't stupid). They justify it by saying "it's just a trashy person of any color". So I tell them to go ahead use it in public to see what the response is. I still don't think they've tried it. At least not in any circles that will get them in an ass whooping situation

"There's no right to free speech anymore. Damn wokeism."

[–] Daveyborn@lemmy.world 12 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Father in-law was throwing it around like it was nothing last Thanksgiving and we haven't been over since.

I don't play that shit.

Every time he used it, "I'm not racist" was said soon after. Sure Dan-o, interesting word choice considering.

the venn diagram of people who say "I'm not racist" and actual racists is a circle

[–] deadbeef79000@lemmy.nz 6 points 8 months ago

That's a fantastic response/challenge.

Essentially: put your money where your mouth is.

Narrator: they didn't.

I hear that insane take from the same people that say BLM was Antifa’s terrorist movement.

[–] wetsoggybread@lemmy.world 6 points 8 months ago

Honestly they stole the word from white men, its just time for them to take back what rightfully belongs! /s

Already handing out rape passes, it’s only a matter of days.

It's OK they will learn all sorts of new slurs from police, ICE, border patrol, people at Walmart

[–] Qkall@lemmy.ml 29 points 8 months ago

fuck man... I chuckled hard. but i willingly gave that up a few years ago... didn't feel right growing up in the burbs.

I may have brain damage, but I can't see this image without hearing Morpheus' voice in my head screaming: "NEEOOOOO WAKE UP NEEEEOOO!"

NEO DID YOU PUT YOUR NAME IN THE GOBLET OF FIRE!!?

[–] TherapyGary@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 8 months ago

I think that's the point

[–] Default_Defect@midwest.social 23 points 8 months ago (4 children)

Yup, lets just keep pointing fingers so we never learn anything.

[–] sudo@programming.dev 26 points 8 months ago (3 children)

Liberals are literally scapegoating minorities instead of criticizing the DNC.

[–] Default_Defect@midwest.social 4 points 8 months ago (2 children)

Pointing the finger and learning nothing? Like I said?

[–] wpb@lemmy.world 4 points 8 months ago

They're agreeing with you.

Didn't black males vote Trump too?

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 35 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Just the zoomers with brain rot. Black voters went from like 90% to 80% Democrats.

You're probably confused because some headline said Trump doubled his support among black men and it didn't mention the baseline was 15%. Which is, ya know, fucking stupid of them in the first place but it is what it is.

[–] starman2112@sh.itjust.works 16 points 8 months ago (4 children)

The shift is kind of what's important. Actual black woman Kamala Harris couldn't maintain the same level of support among black voters as Joe "You Ain't Black" Biden. There are some pretty severe flaws in Harris's campaign strategy that we need to study and rectify in the next four years.

Nonblacks have never had an n-word pass. It's never ok.

[–] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 28 points 8 months ago

Actually my cousin's friend Jeremy gave me a one-time pass as long as I don't tell his mom he threw rocks into Ms. Jones's garden, but aside from that I agree.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 3 points 8 months ago

Fun Fact: The n-word was used against anyone with dark enough skin, including Latinos, Indians, Native Americans, and Pacific Islanders.

It's kind of wild as a modern American reading people like Rudyard Kipling and having him just drop a casual n-word about Indians, honestly.

Yeah fuck minorities! It's their fault the democrats lost and no one else's, least of all the democrats themselves!

[–] nature_man@lemmy.world 8 points 8 months ago (1 children)

So exhausted of the minority bashing on lemmy and other leftist/alternative social media, it was here before but it got way worse after the election. Anybody who thinks its ok to judge an entire population of peoples based on the political associations of some is fucking stupid and can fuck right off.

They voted to be deported. I won't cry over that. Fuck around and find out.

[–] wpb@lemmy.world 3 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

Scratch a liberal, and a fascist bleeds. Which group are you going after next? Trans people? Jews?

One of the reasons why I took a break from Lemmy for election week is I stopped being able to tell Hasbera from Democrats. In fact, the Hasbera are still trolling on Lemmy and reddit, blaming Palestinians for Harris's lost.

We have been arguing Democrats are a party without a people for a long time. At this point, I honestly feel anything I type is lost to the void

[–] wpb@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

It's incredibly infuriating. And the worst part is you already see democrat mainstream media types setting their crosshairs on trans people. In 2028, the democratic party will run on the 2024 republican platform, just like they ran on the 2020 republican platform today, and there's nothing we can do to stop it, because of these idiotic shitlibs.
