And fwiw most of you don't have to care about the implications of this

For the straight white men amongst us - life goes on

Women? Reproductive rights. Gone
Gay people? Marriage rights. Gone
Trans people? Rights. Gone

I get that we don't have to stop living out lives, but that's assuming that some of us will not have our lives stripped away

So sure, raise a glass to the empire - long live the empire

That he had gone from being white to Japanese through assimilation, or something approximating that.

I want to emphatically iterate, I do not disagree! But I also dont understand, even after double checking the dictionary. Is it something that you can explain? That form of racism, I mean.

Right, let's just stick our heads in the sand and pretend like the supreme court didn't just making bribery legal, give corporations free reign to do whatever they want, and give the president unlimited power.
So things continue how they've always been.

Please elaborate

Why would someone need to elaborate? It's racist to specify a stereotype and then say you've become genetically that race because of said stereotype. What's even more offensive in this topic is that we have people questioning whether or not what he posted was racist when they wouldn't be doing that if he was claiming to be genetically black for a stereotypical reason.

Is it racist if someone else tells me I have a black soul and it was over something stereotypical about black people? Did come from a black guy. He called me his white brother with a black soul

What happened was he asked if I liked collards and I said I love it provided its been seasoned by throwing a hamhock or fatback in while it cooks but if it's just boiled plain you can keep that shit.

And also he knew I liked a variety of foods and drinks that are stereotypically "black"

Do you think there might be a difference between some white boy claiming to be Japanese based on their love of anime and the stereotype of submissive women and a black person themselves saying that to someone else in an endearing manner?

I stg actually use your brain

Literally rots peoples brains

Im talking about shit like one of my former friends who became super republican / conservative and decided he didnt like something like the Avengers movies solely because actors like RDJ and Scarlett Johansson posted videos suggesting not voting for Trump back in 2016. Like how does a person have their head shoved so far up their ass that they live like that?

And dont even get me started on the crowd who acts like any non-white in a major role in something is the end of the world

Right-wing politics rots the brain. Left-wing politics opens up new possibilities and has result in increased freedoms & rights.

I am sorry that happened to your friend, though. Right-wingers have definitely made it their mission to ruin entertainment for us with this "woke" bullshit.

I follow politics and get annoyed when stuff like the recent events happen, but I don't let it affect me this much.

You'd think celebrations during tragedy or political regression hasn't happened before the way some of these topics are.

To be fair, what the USSC did on July 1st is extremely unprecedented. It's the worst decision the court has made and everything they've been doing has been setting up the pieces needed for Project 2025 to come in full force.

They've been exceptionally terrible compared to most things in political history.

I don't feel the need to tell others they're not allowed to enjoy the day, but I sure as fuck can't be proud of this nation right now as I watch it's top judicial court usher it into some Christo-fascist shithole version of Iran, or more likely Hungary, as Orban has been in contact with U.S. right-wingers and guiding them on how to turn the U.S. into what he turned Hungary into.

Half the country thought freedom was over when Bush Sr was elected.

Half the country thought freedom was over when Clinton was elected.

Half the country thought freedom was over when Bush Jr was elected.

Half the country thought freedom was over when Obama was elected.

Half the country thought freedom was over when Trump was elected.

Half the country thought freedom was over when Biden was elected.

But THIS time, this is the time when if the wrong guy gets elected, freedom is over as we know it.

If anybody ever needed a single post to establish blu doesn't know what they're talking about politically, it's this one.

The right-wing christo-fascists have spent decades chipping away at this country, installing their people in various positions and courts, and now with the USSC their 50 year theocratic fever dream is finally coming into fruition. The USSC has never been this bad or made such irresponsible decisions that is clearly partisan based and meant for them to establish their power.

You're the kind of person who's going to wake up in a fascist society and go "Nobody saw this coming!" when so many people were warning you, you just refused to heed their warnings. You're basically an average Weimar citizen.
