ANDERSON, Calif. – A school aide wearing a “Make America Great Again” hat is causing a stir after he told students at Anderson Middle School that it’s the country’s national slogan.
Several parents we spoke with Thursday said they were upset because it made their children, who are minorities, feel uncomfortable.
“It is offensive when my child comes home and says a school official made him feel uncomfortable,” Jennifer Zapien said.
Another parent agreed, saying the man should not have been allowed to wear the hat to school.
I guess these “parents” never thought of telling their kids that people have a right to wear a hat like that? Maybe they could have informed their kids that they will see, and hear things they disagree with in life? Instead they told them they were victims. That, to me, a form of child abuse
The Left’s hysterical totalitarianism has reached such an unhinged extreme that anyone or anything can be accused of racism, even an ultramoonbat like Katy Perry, even a pair of shoes, even an entire Katy Perry shoe line…
Katy’s got a whole shoe line for sale at retailers like Dillard’s and Walmart — and a couple of her designs feature what looks similar to blackface … the “Rue Face Slip On Loafers” and its high-heeled counterpart, “Ora Face Block Heel Sandal.”
The shoes have a face on them and some of them are black. This constitutes blackface — currently considered the ultimate blasphemy against our national religion, Cultural Marxism.
The “face” shoes have two eyes, a nose and red lips on them, and they come in two different colors … black and beige. The black one is problematic, because it looks a lot like classic blackface makeup, which the fashion world does not seem to recognize time and again.
Here are the shoes. If this image offends you, in any way, then you have WAY too much time on your hands
OFFENDEDITIS ALERT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Remember kids, if you are not pissed off aggrieved, offended, outraged, butt hurt, or triggered the you are missing out
One student’s complaint of “cultural appropriation” led to the dissolution of a university’s Bhakti yoga group.
American University student Maya Krishnan filed a complaint with the President’s Council on Diversity and Inclusion and wrote an op-ed in the student paper, The Eagle, after seeing a non-Indian group invited by American University’s Bhakti Yoga Club performing the Indian epic “The Ramayana,” according to ISKCON News.
Of course, once again, no one stood up to the bully and…………
The Bhakti Yoga Club’s faculty adviser, as well as its student president and vice president, all resigned from their posts amid backlash following the complaint and op-ed, rendering the group unrecognized by the university.
“Having my culture represented by an almost entirely white troupe of dancers is incredibly frustrating,” Krishnan said in her op-ed. “Additionally, the director and other representatives of the theater company absolve themselves of cultural responsibility by saying that the point of the show is to increase exposure of Hinduism and its traditions.”
The Bhakti Yoga Club had invited Viva Kultura, a multinational performing arts group, to perform”The Ramayana.”
“The reality of this is that white European dancers will never know my intersectional experience as a Hindu woman, being a brown bodied person and the other aspects of systematic racism that I, as well as other South Asian people, have experienced,” Krishnan continued.
Allow me to translate that last paragraph.
Blah, VICTIM, blah, Offended, blah, I am a small person who loves to boss others around, blah, blah, you must do as I say, blah, blah, because I suffer from Racial Obsession Syndrome and am a person who is only happy when I am offended!
Kevin Hart is out as the host for the upcoming Academy Awards. The comedian said the choice to step down was his in a series of two tweets that went out late Thursday evening.
“I have made the choice to step down from hosting this year’s Oscar’s….This is because I do not want to be a distraction on a night that should be celebrated by so many amazing talented artists. I sincerely apologize to the LGBTQ community for my insensitive words from my past,” Hart wrote. “I’m sorry that I hurt people.. I am evolving and want to continue to do so. My goal is to bring people together not tear us apart. Much love & appreciation to the Academy. I hope we can meet again,” he continued.
Hart originally announced that he would be hosting the Oscars on Wednesday. However, shortly after the news was made public, homophobic tweets from his past were resurfaced, prompting many to call for Hart’s role at the upcoming ceremony to be terminated. One of the tweets, which was posted in 2011, read: “Yo if my son comes home & try’s 2 play with my daughters doll house I’m going 2 break it over his head & say n my voice ‘stop that’s gay.'” Hart also has a history of making homophobic comments in his stand-up.
Well, stand up does rely heavily on saying things that might offend. But these days only certain people can be targeted, namely gun owners, Trump supporters, Southerners, White guys, Conservatives, Christians. It is open season on those bastards because SENSITIVITY!
Hart’s old tweets were uncovered by Benjamin Lee of The Guardian
See, comedy BAD! Opinions BAD! Poor Benjamin Lee was so stricken with Offendeditis that he wrote an op-ed. Here is the super OFFENSIVE stand up that has triggered the easily triggerable
Sounds like, stand up comedy to me But super offended Twitter snoop Benjamin Lee, has more evidence that Hart is a hater
The comments preceded his role opposite Will Ferrell in Get Hard, one of the most shockingly regressive gay panic comedies in recent memory, an almost two-hour film based around a fear of anal sex. In the film, Hart helps Ferrell’s character prepare for a stint in jail but after minimal attempts to cover the specifics of prison life and protecting one’s self in a fight, a strikingly dominant phobia of male rape takes over. I wrote about it at the time:
The film’s unarguably wretched low point arrives when Hart’s character takes Ferrell to a gay brunch “hookup spot” where he tells him he’ll need to learn to perform oral sex to make his time in prison easier. While being eyed up by every gay man around them, Hart informs Ferrell of the relative ease of approaching a gay stranger for sex, because “that’s what they do”. After Ferrell immediately gets the attention of the depressingly used Matt Walsh, of Veep fame, he proceeds to attempt an unsuccessful bathroom-stall tryst, which disgusts him in such graphic detail that he can’t go through with it. Meanwhile, Hart is approached by a predatory older gay man who, even after finding out Hart’s heterosexuality, refuses to take no for an answer.
Now, there’s an important distinction to make here. The fear of rape is obviously legitimate and a man’s fear of being raped by another man while in prison is also understandable and by no means homophobic. It makes sense that the film would at least address this but what makes less sense is why the writers have such an obsession with the idea. It punctuates every other line of dialogue and not even in particularly inventive ways (the script is essentially multiple, exhaustive variations on “you’re going to get raped”).
Hart’s response to criticism, from a gay journalist at the time, was predictably unbothered. “Funny is funny, regardless of what area it’s coming from,” he said to HitFix’s Louis Virtel. The film was also released just months after The Wedding Ringer, a film described by The AV Club’s AA Dowd as “a 100-minute gay joke”.
So, a comedian, which Hart is, makes a movie that is, to some, not funny. To be honest I avoid all Will Ferrell movies because he is NOT FUNNY. And, sadly most comedies I have seen the last twenty years are not funny for what it is worth. But, I think the trend towards punishing anyone who makes an “offensive” remark is extremely dangerous. Frankly, this trend tends to discourage not only comedy, but also debate of any sort, and that is what is truly offensive.
These days, the slightest infraction against political correctness can destroy your career. That’s why it is essential that you keep your Newspeak Dictionary updated on a daily basis. The latest banned phrase is “Long time no see”:
That’s according to a student, Katrina Leibee, who writes for the campus paper, The Rocky Mountain Collegian. Leibee met with Zahra Al-Saloom, director of diversity and inclusion at [Colorado State University], who showed her a list of terms and phrases considered contrary to the university’s mission of fostering inclusion.
