"microagressions"
"black bodies"
"latinx"
"ze/hir"

the problem with people like nim is that they actually believe that these sentiments are wide spread and base their entire politics around it.

You are one step closer to solving the riddle of that thread.

Y2A: "Who taught you to say this stuff?"

Younger Millenials and Gen Zers: "YOU, alright? We learned it by listening to YOU!"

Some retard somewhere said these words once and then conservative media outlets blasted it 24/7 as a representation of the left.

"Some retard somewhere said these words once and then conservative media outlets blasted it 24/7 as a representation of the left."


I guess someone forgot to tell universities, activists, and progressive politicians across the country that they're just "some retard."

I sometimes have cause to commute through Northeastern University's main campus, and I noticed a recent name change to the Latino Cultural Center:

I guess Northeastern University is just "some retard" though.

Here's "some retard" (aka the President of the United States) using the term latinx:

^ that clip is gold since he's not only trying to be an SJW by using the Latinx term, but he also ends up being hugely racist by implying that all Hispanics are illegal immigrants.

“ “It does not occur to Joe Biden that tens of millions of Latinos are American citizens,” tweeted former Trump 2020 campaign communications director Tim Murtaugh”

Lol. Virtue-signalling hardcore trumpers are outraged. Bravo. Conservative media is such a fucking circle jerk.

Lol at Dukhat, defending a blatantly racist thing that Biden said (why would most Hispanics be afraid of getting deported, unless they were all illegals?)

I'm going to remember this moment for the next time you criticize a conservative for saying something mildly un-PC. Your hypocritical SJW outrage is on full display here.

The gall for someone like Dukhat to accuse others of being in a political bubble, when he himself isn't even aware that these terms are being pushed by leftwing institutions all across the country, is jarring.

Could someone be less self-aware than you, amica?
