I just watched comedian Mark Normand do a bit in Australia making multiple jokes about Joe Biden's mental status. I'm thinking who the hell is even still talking about Biden, let alone in Australia?

I had a supply teacher named Mike Hunt. He rolled with it. He said "You can call me Mike, or you can call me Mr Cunt".

Lumping people into groups and applying attributes to those people based on the groups they find themselves in denies the individual their right to be different.

I went to a pretty mixed high school and a lot of people there decided it was okay to be racist to white people. I asked my Portuguese friend why he didn't have a problem with it, and he said because he's not white. Same with my Polish friend. Same with my Portuguese teacher.

Apparently you can earn all the benefits of white privilege while not self-identifying as white, and as long as you aren't calling yourself "Irish", people are okay with that.

And "Jews aren't white" while we're at it.

The lesson was supposed to be "Son, races aren't actually a thing, they're a categorical method of sorting people into groups based on variable forms of bigotry. Where one race begins and another ends is as arbitrary as the lines we draw in the sand."

Not turning the white supremacy around into some kind of self-hating racism. That makes about as much sense as the white supremacy. And progresses the human race about as far.

Please don't conflate Israelis with Jewish people, or you'll prove their whole "everyone who says bad things about us actually just hates Jews" BS right.

Oh yeah Jewish people, known for being super lucky throughout history

I guess because Russia and China, the countries they worked in, think Westerners can code better than North Koreans?

I don't know if I'd call it a scam so much as slavery.

I don't get it, why the inquisitive fave?

an anti-n korea org

No, an organization that advocates for North Korean human rights. That's a pro-north korea org.

You gonna tell me that people who have a problem with Pol Pot are "Anti-Cambodian", Mr ".ml"?

The reason China spreads so much propaganda about North Korea actually being totally normal and everything bad you hear about it actually being CIA propaganda lies/because of western sanctions, is because they don't want to admit any responsibility for being the largest trading partner to a despotic authoritarian regime.

That's why you only see this kind of weird denialism around North Korea, and not the other places with shitty leaders and backwards authoritarian laws.

You are repeating Chinese propaganda. You need to understand North Korea isn't socialist. China isn't socialist. And just because America, a country that has done a lot of anti-socialist shitty things, says that North Korea is run by a despot, doesn't mean they're wrong. North Korea is run by a despot. Just because people have said things about North Korea that have been proven wrong, doesn't mean everything ever said about North Korea is wrong.
