A minority person using racial derogatory terms on La council?

I am shocked, shocked I tell you to hear that a non white minority person is racially insensitive!

They need to be sent to rcaial sensitivity classes. Just like those bigoted white guys..., yes sarcasm.

LOS ANGELES — President Biden joined a growing chorus on Tuesday calling for the resignation of three Democratic politicians in the nation’s second-largest city, after a leaked audio recording revealed racist and disparaging remarks made by the City Council president in a meeting last year. Scores of angry protesters disrupted a council meeting as the episode exposed painful racial fault lines in the diverse and heavily Democratic city.

The details:

• In the profanity-laced recording, a copy of which was obtained by The New York Times and which was first reported by The Los Angeles Times on Sunday, Councilwoman Nury Martinez, who is Latina, compared the Black child of a white council member to a “changuito,” Spanish for little monkey. She also called Oaxacan immigrants living in Koreatown “short little dark people.”
• The remarks occurred during a meeting of Ms. Martinez with two other council members, Gil Cedillo and Kevin de León, and the head of one of Los Angeles County’s most powerful labor organizations. That official, Ron Herrera, resigned late Monday.
• Ms. Martinez stepped down as council president on Monday and said on Tuesday that she would take a leave of absence. But she stopped short of resigning from the council, despite calls for her and the two other members to do so from Mayor Eric Garcetti of Los Angeles, both of the candidates running to replace him, President Biden and many other prominent Democratic officials. Mr. Biden’s spokeswoman called the language used on the tape “unacceptable” and “appalling.”

For a smart person you do not seem to undertand human nature and regular pepole outside the ivory tower. Its all academic and simple to you isn't it?

Far from race baiting. I was responding to someoneinfering it was the left making a big deal.

It is a big deal. It is a nail in the coffin of the holy grail of 'diversity'.

'If 'whiteness' is suppressed everybody else will play nice, which is nonsense. The progressive view.

What do you call Latinos conspiring to redraw districts to increase Latino political power and diminish blacks? If it were white Gerrymandering it would be called racist and there would be civil suits. The La council members are guilty of poitical; corruption, plain and simple.

While both were oppressed by the white majority, blacks and Latinos did not necessarily like each other.

They are being criticized, chastised even. Again, what is it you want done to them that hasn't already been done?

On race-baiting, I was referring to the quoted post, which Oleg wrote, in which he posted an offensive video and indicated that his motivation for using racial pejoratives was thrill-seeking. I can think of no other term to describe that activity accurately, and unless you are Oleg, the comment was not directed at you anyway.

And I've never met anyone who believes that "everyone plays nice", only a lot of people who believe that people ought to if they can, myself among them.

Indeed, it is not surprising that nearly all of the criticism of these councilors has come from the political left, not the political right, who are only hoping to meaninglessly "score points" against their enemies by pointing out a supposed hypocrisy.

When the terminally humorless Woke come for Kentucky Fried Movie, the end is certainly nigh. If there’s a difference between them and the church ladies of old, I don’t see it.

The reason for the dislike is Latin Europe's history of slavery. Nury Martinez is excluded from that group (on paper) solely because she wasn't born on or live in one of those continents, thus this whole Latino bullshit (THEY THE SAME PEOPLE YO). She's is considered white though. Just sayin.

*Latino says something disparaging about black boy.*
*When people find out, they get angry.*
*Latino steps down.*

Oleg: But what about white people?!

 

[Politesse]

You know you're talking to an OG right wing loon when they say "See this headline from a major newspaper, that the AM radio has been abuzz over for the last 48 hours? WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT THIS?!?!?" They know, in fact, that they're talking nonsense, a rhetorical game. The goal is just to slip a shiv in the direction of leftists and maybe make some center-right-leaning types like Steve think there's hypocrisy at foot. It is transparently not a good faith attempt to bring attention to an issue otherwise at risk of obscurity. In fact, most people who are actually on the political right absolutely despise it when they encounter the real version of the activity they are pretending to do, ie. when someone calls out an instance of racism that most people haven't recognized or thought about as racism.

Oh boy, the Woke mob is coming after Kentucky Fried Movie. Ugh, the tyranny of the humorless.

 

[Jarhyn]

It is politically impossible for the left to brooch the fact that all groups have prjudices, slurs and stereotypes for other groups.

What... exactly are you proposing should be done, here?

We need to find a way to blame White Supremacy.

Thread topic:

"Racism in any form is a bad thing."

Oleg: "Why do you make us white people the villains?"

Yeah, ask that Latinx chic in the post above. It was meant to a joke. But lefty progressives can't help but blame whitey for everything. It's just so funny and predictible.

Except, the only person saying that is you, and forgive me but you do not come across as "lefty" or "progressive" in the slightest.

It doesn't surprise me that you had no answer for my actual question, though.

I have yet to see any evidence at all that you understand "humor" at all. To those on the right, it seems "humor" translates as "quit holding me responsible for the things I said"

Kentucky Fried Movie is a bit rough on the edges and more a collection of skits than an actual film. Definitely showing the Zucker Brothers learning the craft and getting ready to produce some classic comedies. Also, what does that movie have to do with the OP?

Funny thing about "woke", the alt-right is obsessed with Woke. They see it in everything.

AOC - Woke
Star Wars VII - Woke
Star Trek Discovery - Woke
Bird crap on their car - Woke!!!!

You mean like Michelle Wolf?

And how about the Woke?

There have been hyper-sensitive people for a few decades now. It is best to tune them out. Meanwhile, the right-wing eviscerated The Dixie Chicks, got Bill Maher fired from ABC, tried to ban Marilyn Manson from doing concerts. And of course, tried to ban dancing and rock and roll and depictions of all sorts of stuff in motion pictures. This is a historic thing, that you are arguing against it is ridiculous.

Ah. Indeed. When I want to hear a funny joke, I don't go to my edgy, funny progressive buddies. I go to my local conservative pastor and say, "Lay some clean humor on me, Steve."

 

[Patooka]

Fuck woke humour. I love anti woke humour. Nobody is funnier than conservatives, they know what a joke is.



Fucking hillarious.

You think that you're progressive buddies are edgy? LOL. Lenny Bruce was edgy. You're progressive buddies are too scared to offend, so there's no funny. I mean, the whole men in dresses thing is a comedy goldmine. Yet, seems on Gervais dares to make fun of the obsurdity.
