Chuckie Blow, a black guy, comments on Hispanic “racism”. Talk about cultural appropriation!

What history is missing is Pepe LePew singing “Baby It’s Cold Outside”. Maybe South Park can make an episode around that.

Really? Mexicans are offended by a speedy mouse because people think Mexicans are fast mice? I didn’t know that.

Ok I just gotta say-
I’ve seen Looney Toons, T&J, Bullwinkle, Pixar, Disney, etc millions of times. Same with Christmas songs. Probably true for most of y’all. And maybe I just grew up in a parallel universe but I never once heard or saw anything in any song or cartoon that was remotely associated with rape.
We are burning books. This is who & what we’ve become. I thought at least we’d go down fighting.

I watched children’s shows like Tarzan, about a half-naked white man in the middle of an African jungle who conquers and tames it and outwits the Black people there, who are all portrayed as primitive, if not savage...I watched westerns that regularly depicted Native Americans as aggressive, bloodthirsty savages against whom valiant white men were forced to fight...

As anything it depends on your perspective. Tarzan could not have lived in the jungle without the help of others (in this case, mostly jungle animals). The Native Americans were defending their land rights. Not everybody sees these shows the way this guy does.

Eating Mexican food is cultural appropriation . Anyone doing that needs to be outed/exposed. The same with Chinese food.
Speaking of Chinese, at the beginning of the plandemic AOC called anyone who stayed away from Chinese restaurants raaaaacist. This after decades of liberal health nazis warning us to avoid Chinese food. It's unhealthy they told us. It's got lots of sodium they told us. It's loaded with deadly MSG they told us. Sesame chicken,won ton soup, egg rolls etc are CULTURAL APPROPRIATION they told us. So...if we eat the stuff, THAT'S RACIST! If we don't eat the stuff, THAT'S RACIST! The hustle never ends

The Left are humorless creatures of darkness from the underworld. They are simulacra. They seek to block the light of day. They squash logical thought.

They threaten those who speak out. They fire them and get them fired...and worse. No healthy brain would come up with these absurd claims, growing nuttier by the day. Who could associate with such nutcase political operatives? They are intent on driving the censorship to the point that there will be armed battles leading to chaos, followed by more armed responses, etc.

Those who train the Marxist propagandists tell them to forget answering the valid anger over the censorship and instead accuse their smartest, most articulate, most fearless opponents of you now what: racism, stereotyping, etc.

One of the times I called out their organized crime tactics of threatening me with harm, I used the words, “mafia tactics,” With glee, they proceeded to accuse me of stereotyping. That’s how they they loudly bypass the reality of their tremendous censoriousness of those who pursue facts in the face of purposeful lies and how they bar and mock the utterance of words that put their evil methods and anti-Democratic accusations under scrutiny.

Taking the Polio vaccine is cultural appropriation for gentiles. It was created by Jonas Salk, who was Jewish.

They haven’t found a Mexica who is offended by it. But some white and black lefties are.

and Mammy Two Shoes, a heavyset Black maid who spoke in a heavy accent.

I have never heard of or seen this cartoon character - and I watched ALL the cartoons as a child.

I too watched every cartoon on TV growing up in the 1950s and have NEVER heard of or seen "Mammy Two Shoes.
