No. Generally, they think to themselves, “I really hope I don’t say anything that will offend any family members.” But then they comment on the “oriental rug” and get yelled at and called a problematic bigot and uninvited to any and all future family get togethers.
The red hat wearing, racist, Nazi, “fuck your feelings” caricature that the internet has made out of anyone who is not a Democrat is just as wrong and hateful as the blue haired, gender fluid, “punch my Nazi family members in the face” caricature that the internet has made out of anyone who is not a Republican.
You guys need to stop buying in to stereotypes!
I’m glad for you that you don’t have any of the republican stereotypes currently in your life.
Pretty sure that’s not how they describe you.
I’m pretty closed minded about how racism is dog shit.
Yes. They say “so much for the tolerant left” without any shred of self awareness.
This tweet is so old you can’t even blame them for not hearing of “woke” used as an insult yet.
Repeat of yesterdays meme. Is this a fad?
Yes, except they pronounce it “libtard” and “woke”(with the usual inflection of distain of course).
Probably the woke person doesn’t bother going, they’ve written that family off.
Well of course they don’t say that. They have negative sounding terms like the old “bleeding heart liberal,” because as every good conservative knows it is weakness and foolishness to give a shit about other people.
I guess today they would just go for woke. It’s short and meaningless, but it started out being used by minorities so again every good conservative knows it’s a bad thing and a killer insult.
My dad said that one all the time. Little kid me thought it was a sick burn. Somewhere in my 20s it hit me that it’s actually more of a compliment
Bleeding heart libtard should be adopted as a compliment.
Yes, just with very different adjectives
Yeah, kinda. My racist aunt was like: “yeah, so I’ve had some issues with my daughter. She’s woke, you know, so she gets angry at everything I say. I can’t say anything anymore. I don’t mind her not coming over. No respect for the parents and elderly these days, their generation is totally fucked up. Must be puberty or something.” (*my cousin is 32)
I don’t know what they say because I’m the one they’re probably saying it about
I do know what they say because both my racist narcissistic aunt and mother say it to me in my face. They get angry at me for telling them what they say is racist / homophobe / transphobe / supports genocide (they are pro Israël), tell me I act like a child, don’t know anything about the world, have no respect, should keep my mouth shut, shouldn’t have come, should be ashamed of myself. “Next time behave and let us speak our opinions (meaning shut up and listen) or don’t come.” So now I have cut them completely off. They are angry about that too but I blocked them so it’s not my problem anymore. They are in their 70s so should die soon I hope. Makes this world just is little bit less horrible.
No, he looks forward to using me as a target for their collective derision.
This Thanksgiving we took an opportunity to talk shit to my 21 year old nephew. He had told me about horseshoe theory and other “I’m not right wing, I’m a moderate” bullshit before. Today he praised RFK. The three adults other than Grandma, being his mom, his aunt, and his uncle (me), all piled on with stories of what a bullshit hack RFK is.
Then we left him alone about it and had a good time. Strike hard and fast then talk about something else. Leave them with something to think about.
That sucks. I wouldn’t go.
Think there are definitely people that choose to believe the world is a certain way because that feels right and that’s how it should be. Rather than what it actually is. Just completely brainwashed and refusing to see evidence.
Plenty of woke people will claim immigrants from poor countries, that have intolerant religions and low records for homophobia and sexism even from places like UN, will be upstanding citizens and cause 0 problems at all (as a group average).
Those people are equally if not more annoying.
Liberals are worse than fascists then. Jeez I don’t like liberals either but they’re not that bad
One time as a kid I took a southern Baptist church trip to Central America. When I got back my racist uncle said “y’all look like a bunch of foreigners.” Mind you that at the time I was blond enough to be a Hitler Youth poster boy, but heaven forbid my skin was brown from being in the sun. 🙄
Has god blessed him with life to this day?
Of course not. They live for the outage and offense they cause. It’s like a validation for them that they’re on the right track. Like finding enemies in a video game, it indicates that it’s the path to follow. They don’t realize they’re the villain though.
They’re like stupid children with bad parents. But they are whole ass adults.
It’s so pathetic.
