    This mf just fell out of a coconut tree. He doesn't realize that he exists in the context of all in which he lives and what came before him.

      Excuse me, are you being racist towards this obviously innocent man by comparing him to the kind of animal that hangs around coconut trees? How dare you!

      Americans “exist” only technically, because the biological processes are happening, but most are barely aware that the world is a place where things happen.

    if you possess knowledge about what racism is that means there is racism inside your head, and so by definition you are racist. sorry that hexbears can't follow simple logic

      orangutans don't do that. they're too busy healing wounds with poultices and refusing to speak language lest they be put to work. you're thinking of europeans.

        I specifically picked the most peaceful ape because it would take forever and be funny

        You would have to convince them that racists are full of candy

      The field of medical science needs to find out if there's anything left inside, or if it's all been consumed by a writhing mass of brainworms

      Brazilian player Vinicius Jr. gets racially abused every time he plays outside of Real Madrid stadium. Like every fucking time people either make monkey noises or just say the N word for him to hear. It's insane.

      spain-cool

      Not surprising considering the head of the spanish football federation is an outspoken VOX supporter, they refuse to even try to adress this issue. In fact, every time something happens with Vinicius, former, in activity players or members of the federation would come out and speak about it but they always end up making it worse. They make racist comments while trying to downplay racism at the same time. It takes effort to be this bad.

        Happened in rugby recently too, which is a shame, not just by a fan, but a teammate:

        "Benetton Rugby prop Ivan Nemer has been suspended until June 30 after giving a rotten banana to team-mate Cherif Traore as a Christmas present. The Italian Rugby Federation confirmed the suspension following an investigation into the incident during a private lunch organised by the club's players on December 20"

    This is like such a common conservative rhetorical move and they act like they just hit you with the fist of god

    "Ummmm aktually I don't think about race ever in my entire life so you're the real racist for calling me racist QED" smuglord

    Literally just saying "no u". These people should be thrown in the barbara-pit

      Probably trying to create some plausible deniability that it was about her size, not her ethnicity. Which is an astounding defense: “No I’m not making monkey noises because I’m bigoted against black people, I’m making monkey noises because I’m bigoted against plus size women.”

    Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.

    Idiots like this say the same thing about “seeing color”.
