Well this is absolutely amazing I never knew walking in the rain was racist wow. So for tens of thousands of years if you weren’t black it was racist of you to be in the rain for any reason especially happy ones good to know
That’s the first thing I thought of. I guess the frolicking Black people are guilty of cultural appropriation.
The one who complained must sit around looking for offenses. What a miserable way to live...
“The word “racist” or “racism” no longer has any meaning. Killed by those that label everything they don’t approve of as being racist”
Totally agree and please allow me to relate a first hand experience that backs up your comment.
Back in the 90s I had a black supervisor that had occasion to take disciplinary action on a black female in my shop.
After, she ran around the shop for weeks accusing him of racism.......a black woman accusing a black man of racism......that makes a lot of sense.
It was then what I had suspected for a long time to absolutely true, that the accusation of racism is nothing more than an attempt to gain leverage in any given situation when there is no other valid argument.
Although I could relate more similar experiences I’ll refrain, I’m sure you get the idea.
Since that experience the accusation of racism has meant nothing to me.
Why has no one accused the rain of racism? Last I checked, it wasn’t even black.
Their complaint should be in Swahili or else it is irrelevant.
[ Lighten up folks.]
Can you say that to an AA woman? Isn’t that like telling a Karen to ‘calm down’?
I had to double check this was not the 🐝. Some people are well & truly insane.
I can’t wait to hear her apologize for this great transgression, the overt exhibition of her insensitivity bordering on hostility to communities of color.
I just laugh out loud at these idiots. Calling me a racist has no effect at all.
I’m convinced that’s why we are seeing more Hispanics coming to the GOP. They can’t stand being classified with these fools.
Sit & stir, shout & stir.... miserable people indeed.
I think Drew Barrymore is a nut. Just “judging” by her actions. And her nut case family. But whatever....
But this S..T here is nuts!
I thought Black Men Frolicking is what they call it when a black guy blindside bashes and 80 year old Asian woman in the head.
Guess what, NFL fans… white NFL players have been committing racist appropriation since the 1960’s when they copied Homer Jones’ “spike” of the football after scoring a touchdown.

I find this particularly irritating as like so much of liberalism this is diametrically opposed to reality.
Ive told a story here for different reasons that illustrates what I mean.
There was a small amusement park I frequented as a small child and, except for the years when I lived out of country, I have continued to visit since.
Thunderstorms are frequent here in the summer. When they would roll through all the rides shut down. The mostly veteran or farmer white fathers showed no sign of noticing except when one of them would hold their hand in the wrong position and the rain running off them would put out their cigarette. Moms and older girls would take out their little plastic rain bonnets and walk calmly to the nearest awning or nearby building to converse quietly. The boys and younger girls didnt care that the rides shut down as they were too busy stomping and playing in the rapidly rising puddles.
When the 80s arrived so did a larger number of people from farther away from a larger demographic. There was a distinct difference in some peoples behavior when it started to rain especially at the dawn of the age of jheri curl. When it would rain there would be screaming and hysteria. Some people frantically ran around yelling and stampeding and shoving as though they were about to be killed by some great beast and needed to escape.
At first many of the locals just stood their in wonder at what would provoke this extreme behavior but it didnt stay that way for long. Soon nearly everyone, visitor and local alike, was shrieking and fleeing the great rain beast when it would approach and plowing through anyone that stood in their way.
Today, when I bring someone there and it begins to rain, I simply sit on the nearest bench alone, except for whomever Im with, as cowering beady eyes stare out of every nearby building at us in wonder that we would dare to bravely endure what is to happen next.
As far as recent frolicking, they really cant claim to have invented anything they went so far out of their way to destroy.
Apologizing is the worst thing you can do with these bullies. She should just say she’d never seen ‘Black Men Frolicking’ and based it on Gene Kelly.
Fred Astaire: a racist and appropriator before his time.
OK, so Gene Kelly is the racist here. Dunno why I thought it was Fred Astaire.
I suggest we amend that to..."when your enemy is destroying himself, egg him on."
My first thought was “Singin’ in The Rain”. He frolicked before frolicking was JFB (just for blacks)!
