White Fragility

[Jin-roh]

Stop deflecting. Explain. You accused me of not understanding. So explain so I can understand. Simple request. eh?

If you claim to understand, even implicitly, it's definitely your burden.

Though I meant it when I said that I don't believe that white conservatives understand anything outside their own echo chamber.

You made the accusation. Yet you want to shift the burden to me? You just did the same thing with MM. I guess you are all bluster then.

Just go away if you can't contribute to the discussion and just want to hurl elephant dung.

This is the problem with conservatism. It can't deal with criticism except by childish, tu quoque responses.... and of course...

Idea of 'white fragility' is spread by side of snowflakes, worse than children. Meltdown of libs here in tweb and all over about Trump is well known, but best they can do is go 'no, you are one who is fragile!!!'.

...reappropriation of terms. #fakenews

Yep, term has been so very very successfully appropriated by anti-libs, and all you can do now is whine about how your side is losing!!

[demi-conservative]

'Conservatives have no reason' libtard Jin-roh doesn't want to make argument for his case.

Libtards project like usual.

Can you please first explain why your evident lack of curiosity and probable intransigency on this subject is my burden?

You are the one with a grievance, whose burden do you think it is to petition for its redress?

BTW, you don't make a very good SJW. You're supposed to try these emotional con jobs on people who are vulnerable and easily manipulated, not people like me or sparko who just laugh at them.

Many of us think the whole white fragility thing is just foolishness. You disagreed so explain why you disagree. Why else did you enter the discussion?

[Sparko]

wow..

So guess what? Using White Marble in statues is racist.

Don't these idiots realize that "white people" aren't actually white?

Romans were mostly Mediterranean weren't they? Olive skinned & hairy shouldered...

Mediterranean is a pretty broad term. Romans are well within a white complexion.

[Sparko]

She is claiming that white marble is "a dangerous construct that continues to influence white supremacist ideas today."

as if the KKK goes around and says "well statues are white so that means white is superior!"

Y'know, the Easter Island statues are white stone too. She should protest to have them torn down.

As I have been saying, this type of liberal actually LOOKS for ways to find racism and victim-hood in things that are completely innocuous. Tacos, hats, peanut butter sandwiches, statues, etc. I am sure they think the White house is racist, and the white lines on the road and parking spaces, and milk.*

* as I was typing that, I decided to do a google search for "racist milk" - and... I kid you not...


Milk new symbol of hate?http://www.daily49er.com/opinion/201...ymbol-of-hate/

I am sure they think the White house is racist...

I remember after Obama was elected, there were jokes from liberals that it should be renamed "The Black House".

First, a random video of a handful of people proves nothing. It's especially suspicious considering its source.

Having spent a reasonable amount of time in Japan, in places ranging from provincial towns to major cities - I find the responses entirely expected.

And what we don't get, is any impression that the detractors have actually listened and understood the issues they're responding to. Because, you're average white conservative can't listen or understand anything outside of their own echo chamber.

The people that film producers have to listen to, in the final analysis, are the people who pay for their product.

As for the main character of Ghost in the Shell being Asian ... did the complainants do any research, beyond finding out that the story originated in Japan?

Artwork from the original Kodansha production doesn't support the claim:

[Sparko]

simple solution: Scarlett Johansson just self-identifies as Asian for the purposes of the film.
