Era doesn't get that if your're on the right you can look at that and think JD has a sense of humor. They think everyone sees the world as they do.

Now they are getting their jollies making fun of this meal.

"That cornbread looks dry! AHAHAHAHA!!!" we have fun.

At a point they need to realize this stuff doesn’t work. They keep using the same strategy, over and over. The audience keeps shrinking and fragmenting. Teflon Don, etc. but like, try something new. Don’t keep doing the exact same shtick that had you eating shit in the election.

Is that one long carrot?

Teflon Don is not an insult. Is the fact that keeps evading the law by dumb luck, money and political pull.

Is just stating a reality that people shouldn’t forget about their current president.

This post is telling me you misinterpreted the "this is why we lose elections" posts. They weren't referencing indigenous issues, colonialism, or even Thanksgiving. They were making a broader point about the mentality behind this stuff. I think you took it too literally. Intent isn't always easy to decipher on the internet but I'm like 95% sure that s what they was referring to… general, nonspecific commentary on, the moral grandstanding and shaming the left can be guilty of. Nothing to do with the actual topic of the thread, which I guess is a problem of its own.

Racist white people are why we lose elections. You can even see it happening in this thread. You can even see it happening in this logic. People that keep saying this are pretty much admitting that marginalized folk pointing out history l, which is literally all this thread did, is "moral grand standing," but that simple action is taken by lots of white people as, DON'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO OR IMMA BE A BIGOT!

Supposed "liberal" White people will come on the internet and talk about why we lose elections but won't tell their uncle Jim and aunt Pam they're bad people for being racist.

Also, lol @ you being so patronizing to a Black woman. Check yourself. She's smart and knows what she read

Patronizing? Are you fr? Nobody allowed to point out somebody might've misinterpreted shit without being labeled like that? You're outta pocket, man.

My point was that I think folks in this thread reading those posts as "blaming indigenous people for losing elections" are missing the intent. They were broader commentary on the mentality behind this stuff, not literally about indigenous people and Thanksgiving, That's how I interpreted them at least. They were def a thread derail

RIP

I can’t tell if Embiid is brilliantly navigating through the shitstorm that is that site or if his posts just tend to stick out because they’re not batshit crazy

People should still totally mock Trump and Trumptards. Not being obsessed with him or make your whole political pitch not being him, but people should still shit on orange face.  

Let’s not pretend the cunt is not a cunt.

Trans people rank higher than indigenous folk, transphobe.

"We need to talk about...'


Geeeeeeeeet fuuuuuuuuuuucked

One of those phrases that has become horribly white progressive coded

[Uncle]

I had a student ask me if it was racist to wish people happy Thanksgiving, recently. I said no, but they might want to consider that not everyone celebrates Thanksgiving.

They looked at me truly confused, and started spouting the American mythology about pilgrims and indigenous people. They kept saying, "That's what I was taught." I let them finish and asked if they'd ever, even once, spoken to an indigenous person about the holiday.

They said no, and then looked at me and then, after thinking on it for a minute said: I guess thats pretty fucked up.

Also depressing to know someone like skillzilla81 is teaching kids.

 

who the fuck cares?

it's not like everyone even has access to people who might be associated with any given celebration

it's incredibly patronizing to assume that every descendant of an indigenous person even has investment in this and that they owe you some sort of examination on the subject due to your white guilt

"oh what tribe was that even? my ancestors were on the west coast, they probably wouldn't have even known what was going on over there, nor would random tribe represent their interests in any way, the same way californians don't know or represent people from delaware"

should we start requiring black people to ask white people about christmas, since it's "their" holiday?

[Jansen]

The actual history behind Thanksgiving isn't widely taught in U.S. schools. I did not know the actual history behind Thanksgiving until recently.

That legitimately looks atrocious though. If mocking it is a losing cause then I'll gladly take that L

He's fighting a good fight.

Genius that he chose Embiid as both profile and nickname. Picking being black as his passive is perfect against the trans debuff.

Although we might end up seeing black on black crime on ERA... war is ugly.

He has my support and vote.

The actual history behind Thanksgiving isn't widely taught in U.S. schools. I did not know the actual history behind Thanksgiving until recently.

They constantly advertise their ignorance and then blame their education for it.  They always do this.  That guy did it with the "Nobody knows that the Ancient Greeks were influenced by Egypt because they don't teach it in the racist schools."  Everyone fucking knows that.  I didn't grow up in America and I know the history of Thanksgiving, how don't you?  And why are you blaming a childhood education?  You can't play catch-up on a lesson meant for a 9 year old?  Are you stupid or something?  It takes 5 minutes to look into this.  Do they take responsibility for anything?

[Uncle]

Post is already deleted.

best part about this is imagining nepenthe spending all evening with her family on thanksgiving scouring the forum for evil posts to delete

"honey? we need you to pick what you think is the answer in Drawful, you're always the last one we're waiting on, can you focus on the game?"

"ChatGPT, write a post in the style of your average Era user"

Yikes! So..uh, like...oof. Y'all folks seen this egregious shit rn?

[Nintex]

Ugh look at JD Vance and Donald Trump having fun. Ugh, look at that Elon Musk dancing with robots. How lame Trump is high fiving the Ninja Turtles. Seriously having Darth Vader cosplay is so not cool. Sure, Joe Rogan is going to host his podcast from the Mar-A-Lago, figures he'd move to Florida or should I say Naziland too. Look at them parading around Disneyland, fucking TERFS. You know those F22 fly-overs seriously hurt the climate. Vin Diesel is not cool anymore, who the hell cares about race cars. McDonalds, again? How about a salad for a change.

A rollercoaster in the White House lawn? What a clown show.

So Smoggon was a racist site 20(!) years ago so it's a problem? What about Resetera, the nexus of gaming, pedo adjacent anime, black liberation, and anti-zionism?

That's the kind of post I would expect from someone who groomed a 15 year old over the internet from a foreign country, eventually leading to a sexual relationship.

Fuck, as if Assad wasn't enough now the orange shit stain gets to celebrate Putin dangling from a rope. Why do I have to see this everywhere. Don't they know how many trans folks are killing themselves and it triggers our PTSD. Why is Zelensky praising him. How are we fucking accepting Starlink hacking nuclear systems. They're talking about a Nobel peace prize. They are waving their colonizer flags everywhere. Fuck I'm so fucking tired of this fucking shit. McDonalds? The orange clown ordered Fucking McDonalds to the Kremlin?

[Uncle]

why is it only important to listen to the activists? what if I accidentally listen to an indigenous person who doesn't care and says hell yeah brother I have a lot to be thankful for, cheers

[almostheathen]

Monoliths for all.

[Propagandhim]

Thats crazy tho.  Systems of oppression and shit, nah but for real, thats like sooo nuts tho.  Hey could you pass the stuffing?  Oh no, its cool, take your time - you have plenty of it.  You're not winning any elections any time soon.

ERA's not safe:

https://www.resetera.com/threads/a-reminder-thanksgiving-is-a-problematic-holiday-celebrates-a-myth-of-colonialism-and-white-proprietorship-of-the-u-s.1047771/page-7#post-132276591

In the past several weeks on Era:

    I've had people argue my lived experience as a Black man, teaching English in college, arguing with me that reading is not political.
    I've seen people ignore Black posters as they say we need to listen to Joe Rogan and his ilk because he used to be a democrat.
    The general fuckery that comes with post election and everybody saying, "This is why we lose elections" as marginalized people just ask to be listened to.
    Whatever the fuck this thread turned into.

This site is not a safe space and if this is a "progessive space" (it isn't), then you motherfuckers that showed your asses here need to do some reflection. Which SOMEBODY SAID TO ME WAS BAD IN THIS THREAD!

I lost my temper a few weeks ago and regretted it and I've been trying to engage in these types of threads just to prove I was wrong, but I wasn't.

[Averon]

I'm just trying to help the OP. Communications is a SKILL, and people aren't seeing their point because of the way its being presented.

There will never be good enough communication by the oppressed and those trying to practice solidarity with them to satisfy those who have oppressive tendencies, because the fundamental issue is the disagreement with oppression itself.

In a thread largely about Indigenous genocide, you focused on the wrong thing, while being unnecessarily condescending. "CoMmUnIcAtIoN iS a SkIlL, and I put skill in ALL CAPS for emphasis." I don't see you writing a more eloquent fucking thread about the issue.

Pendas: "Good communication is key to get people on your side and see your point of view."

Nep: "Fuck your 'communication', you oppressor."

Yeah, these people ain't winning elections any time soon.

[AnnoyedCanadian]

These fucking idiots think liberals like myself are worse than people on the right.

It's pure insanity and driven by the fact that they listen to dumbass idiots like Hamas Piker and his ilk.

Yeah there will.  You can start by communicating, in the best way you can, why you think you're oppressed in America in 2024.  Because, as far as I can tell, there's really nothing holding you back at all aside from your fucked up brain.
