So this is the right way to stereotype Black people?

So apparently black people are just like redneck Trump supporters. Except perhaps for the opinion about which lives matter (all vs. black).

You learn something new every day I guess.

What did SNL get right here, Athena?

That some people have some things in common?

Some people have most things in common.

And most people have some things in common.

Unfortunately for our world, all it takes is a couple things, or even a single thing, not in common for people to be at each others' throats.

Hey - another thing most people have in common!

Why are you pretending black people don't think all lives matter?

Why are you pretending black people don't think all lives matter?

I am not pretending anything. That was the clear implication of the ending of the skit. So take it up with Keenan and SNL writers, not me.

Also, not blacks per se, but #BLM supporters no matter their skin color definitely do not think all lives matter, judging by their reaction every time somebody says that they do.

Of course, you are.

No, that was not the clear implication.

You are not fooling anyone.

So Neil deGrasse Tyson just chatted with Sam Harris about structuring arguments when people are likely to (or out to) misunderstand what's being said:

The post you quoted above this one is a perfect example of the matter

Like an ability to appreciate good writing in a comedy sketch?

I thought it was funny, clever, okay.

Let's play Polish Jeopardy next.

Honestly, if you can't see yourself in people you're blind.

In Poland Jeopardy plays you! .... Oh, wait, it's in Russia.

It turns out that there actually is/was a Polish Jeopardy:

I am surprised You are surprised by this fact. I would have been surprised if it turned out that there was a country without Jeopardy show.

No, that was not the clear implication.

What was the clear implication?

That the Black people liked and bonded with Doug the Trump supporter up to a point, but ultimately had to reject Doug the Trump supporter because only Doug the Trump supporter is insightful enough to realize that the question of which lives matter isn't simply "Black"?

... only Doug the Trump supporter is insightful enough to realize that the question of which lives matter isn't simply "Black"...

False.

Yes, most people got the sketch. A few people here won't get it, some will get it and pretend they don't. But the sketch is funny and it makes you think.
