I think I see the problem. The TikTok user “amushroomblackly” needs to capitalize the “b” so that it’s “amushroomBlackly”.

Please note that I identify as a male king. Please refer to me as Your Yness.

No more speaking English. No more using video cameras.

I agree with you. Drew Barrymore comes from a very famous acting family, most of whom suffered from a genetic predisposition to addiction. Drew seems like a nice person, down to earth, and dare I say "normal". She doesn't deserve the hateful remarks directed at her by society's losers.

Is Drew Barrymore racist?

I have no idea. Usually the only way to know if someone is actually racist is to know them very well. And I never even met the woman.

Is filming yourself playing in the rain racist?

No, it is, of course, not racist. Like 98% of the stuff labeled racist.

But the concept is weird. Why would you film yourself running outside in the rain?

Going outside to play in the rain I understand. It is even more fun if you have someone to go with you. But making a recording and showing everyone? Why?

Nice to see liberals, like Drew, get hoisted on their own petard. This is the world they helped to make.

Actually, the original singer in the rain was Cliff Edwards, in Hollywood Revue of 1929--which happens to be my favorite movie musical.

She may, indeed, be guilty of cultural appropriation.

Yesterdays thread...

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 there 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 plowed 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 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.

None of the people criticizing get had better EVER roll their eyes, cause I’d consider that cultural appropriation from ME.

Well then to run it to its final conclusion, all blacks must wear those African grass skirts since western wear is cultural appropriation by them.

Yep, the very white song-and-dance man, Gene Kelly, was the original “singer in the rain.” I guess these wokesters don’t know that.

a TikTok trend called “black men frolicking.” It began with the user thexsadxoptimistic filming himself happily running through a field of flowers. The clip got shared on Mashable in May and quickly went viral, inspiring other social media users to copy him.

black men now turning fag?
