    It was European fascism that persecuted the Jews and caused the creation of Israel. Zionism was pushed by European antisemites to get the Jews out. The Palestinians had nothing to do with it and rightfully see Israel as a European colonial project rather than any kind of legitimate state

    Well, this part needs some explaination and historical context, since you’re saying the Palestininians deserve something, and that the thing that is deserved was stolen.

    Because Palestine is just as much a distant historical idea as israel, since that land was in the hands of the ottomans that were then taken over by the british, while being promised to both jews and palestinians.

    For clarification, the British , with the help of traiterous arabs who thought they could hack it outside the ottoman empire, took those lands by force, then they did whatever the fuck they wanted to, because they took those lands by force, the same way any other territory belonged to any other group of people.

    N…no, you don’t get it! He made it shitty on purpouse because … because that’s what art is man.

    He could have chosen to diss Drake, like Kendrick Lamar did.


  • OK. Let’s break it all the way down explicitly.

    The joke is that Chang’s character is in Drow makeup, and because Shirley is out of touch with games, she thinks that the Drow make up is blackface.

    The depiction of the Drow makeup has chosen an “ambigious” shade of black/grey that made it seem to some viewers or people who want to see it that way , as blackface, in real life, not as a character in the show. This caused problems.

    The suggestion, is that if they chose grey or some other ashy shade , and or gone more elaborate with the make up, like red contacts, or pointy ears, they could have done EXACT joke, but made it not “ambigious” and avoided the heat that the episode has actually gotten.

    I would even say that having a LESS blackface looking make up would further accentuate Shirley’s out of touchness, making it funnier, as it would be more ridiculous that A) She would think that make up is blackface and B) Shirley thinks that’s what Chang thinks making himself look like a black person would entail, red eyes and pointy ears and a non human shade of darkness.

    Furthermore, expanding on my other point which was not adressed in your post :

    I guess I’m out of touch with the race politics jokes of 1890s, so the parody seems out of time for me.
    Maybe if they threw in a tin pan alley, player piano or travelling curio joke, I’d have gotten it a bit better.

    What the fuck are it’s always sunny et al doing making fun of this outdated shit in the first place? Did they get that mad at Spike Lee making Bamboozled and using blackface as an analogy of people acting up to stereotypes to get ahead in life , that they had to address it as a commentary on blackface, an “artform” from the 1890s as a target?







  • like there is definitely some truth to glean in economics. but as it stands, it’s a disservice to call it a science.

    absolutely, my statement was real edgelordy, but the idea behind economics, that is to say “resource management” is a valuable field of study, but as you say, it’s all been manipulated shit to make the rich richer.
