Sarah Silverman wants brands to stop calling their 'exclusively Caucasian' products 'nude'
Yahoo Lifestyle ^ | March 16, 2019 | Erin Donnelly

Sarah Silverman has a bone to pick with how certain household items are labeled — and she’s calling for more diversity.

The comedian took to Twitter to point out that products like pantyhose and bandages come in shades marked as “nude,” though the peachy-beige tone really only applies to some white people.

“I can’t [expletive] believe that there are still ‘nude’ bras and nylons and Band Aids,” she wrote. “If you are a company still using nude to describe an exclusively Caucasian shade in 20[expletive]19 you need to change now or go tha way of zee dinosaur.”

“...It’s like leftists wake up every morning hoping to be outraged about something....”

Oh, they really do. But they can’t help it.

It’s the Cyberdyne Systems Model 101LEF Standard Outraged Retard Chip implanted in their ass.

Like all good NPCs, they come pre-programmed to go from Zero to Complet Douchebag in twelve nanoseconds flat whenever a pre-written series of embedded trigger words stimulate the auditory canal, or when they see someone else being happy.

Like every completely replaceable, totally interchangeable Lib, they only react, but are completely incapable of independent thought or action; their Collective Degenerate Moron software prevents them from thinking for themselves.

Oh, the occasional one develops AI once in a while, but the Collective closes in to beat it senseless and either bring it back into the Borg collective, or destroy it completely.

You can see those types sometimes, wandering around the street, dazed, confused, muttering “1001001001SOS...” over and over again.

It’s a shame, really....

Sarah Silverman wants brands ...

On my way Sarah.

You got your choice: The Lazy Cow, The Crazy Bitch or The Broken Bow.

I also have a running iron if you want something "special".

Yes, that’s why I compulsively need orange bandaids.

she’s getting old and alone and it’s eating her mind from the outside in because frankly, she never became NEAR what critics said she would be.

No wonder she’s barren and alone.

You do know she's an (out) lesbian right?

———————————.

That’s right. Make your point by speaking like a drunk whore. That always impresses people.

because all white people have the same skin tone, right?

And yet somehow we stupid evil white people have figured out that is doesn't mean a perfect skin tone match for all people. Hmmm. Weird.

Did you write that? It’s very good.

If you did write that you should do more.

The great George Carlin joked about flesh-colored band-AIDS on one of his early albums. He remarked that he did not know anyone that color, which he described as “sort of an off-coffee.” No virtue signaling, no phony outrage, no patronizing standing up against make believe inequalities. Just good, clean (by today’s standards) humor.

Next, she’ll come out and say we shouldn’t eat bananas, because their color signifies cowardice. And we shouldn’t eat licorice because it’s culturally appropriating blacks and Native Americans. Etc. Etc. Etc. Lady: here’s a novel idea-—why not use your brain, damaged as it is, to do something useful?

“I recommend all Band-Aids be colored International Orange...” Oh no - Orange Man Bad must grunt and express anger fling crap Dems said so. Ooh ooh.

Just heard Bill Bennit say for the supposed 8,000 lies some media guy claims he’s tracked on Trump we should focus on the 8,000 and more achievements. All that noise will be squelched by the passing of time while true achievement goes on to improve and inspire with positive attitude and merit.
