Hey look, the demagogue who claimed that the half-white half-black biracial American president "hates white people" thinks a coke ad showing diversity is an effort to 'divide people.' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xZ8B_Ihjd_M I think it's an effort to sell more soda to a lot of people with fashionable tolerance, but morning zoo scam artist Beck would have his listeners think it's an attack on their paranoid intolerant selves.

The Ape of Naples posted:I'm over my mom's place and she's listening to some right wing radio station. Maybe it's Savage, I'm trying not to pay attention. But whoever it is is railing against the Coke commercial. He said something to the effect "do you think you could sing the national anthem of China or Russia or France in English? The people would riot!" So, are those three countries the right wants to emulate? Would that make them better than us? Ignoring for a minute that they don't have the history of immigration that the US has. I couldn't understand his point. Even if the guy didn't say "National anthem" and properly identified the song, it's still ridiculous. No Russians are going to riot if you have a good singer do Podmoskovnye Vechera in another language, and no French will riot because you translated Georges Brassens. If it's well-done, anyone who gets mad was just itching for something to fight over to begin with. You might start a small bar fight if you make it some obscene mockery, but that applies to anything touching on national identity. I get that it's Rush/Beck/Savage/etc's job to feign outrage, but how do their fans even begin to take this seriously?

Because their fans are racists who have identified American nationalism with white anglo saxon protestantism. They are, of course, horribly wrong, as the most cursory inspection of The New Colossus alone would prove (among many other equally potent examples) but it's their racism and they're sticking to it.

I have friends and family who are republicans, they just aren't deep in a Fox/EIB/Civitas well of poo poo. Just lucky that the republicans I know have actually traveled overseas and understand it isn't all barbarian hordes outside America. Loving the idea that people would think someone like Pierre De Gaillande risks death every time he sets foot in the Francosphere.

I guess conservatives want the world to hate us? Well no, conservatives would not want the United States to be primarily loved by the ROTW. I think Christ Christie said it best. "We choose respect over love". Respect in the conservative lexicon means fear, and that's the sort of order they prefer, for a bunch of reasons that all boil down to them being stunted people.

Intel&Sebastian posted:They choose respect over love because they are un-lovable and working diligently on the other one. I mean, take one rather particular class of people, businesspeople, and let them remake the world in their bloodless, mediocre image. They'll expunge, belittle, or marginalize all the elements they don't understand or approve of, and way overemphasize the things they know how to do. What you wind up with is an unbalanced, unworkable world because it was designed by an ad guy who decided he didn't need any engineers or janitors. It's just capture of the United States by its merchant class, nothing more. Happens all the time, and guess who loses. Oh right, everyone.

Spacedad posted:Hey look, the demagogue who claimed that the half-white half-black biracial American president "hates white people" thinks a coke ad showing diversity is an effort to 'divide people.'  Dividing America = Triggering conservative racism by unintentionally trolling them with harmless pablum.Seriously, I've heard conservatives claim dozens of times that so-and-so is "dividing America", and it always has to do with trying to explain some racist outburst by someone on the right over something inconsequential. quote:Executives at Coca Cola thought it was a good idea to run a 60 second Super Bowl ad featuring children singing "America the Beautiful" – a deeply Christian patriotic anthem whose theme is unity – in several foreign languages. The ad also prominently features a gay couple. Someone should clue in the people at Breitbart that 'unity' and 'uniformity' are not synonyms. quote:As far as the executives at Coca Cola are concerned, however, the United States of America is no longer a nation ruled by the Constitution and American traditions in which English is the language of government. It is not a nation governed in the Anglo-American tradition of liberty. It is instead a nation governed by some all inclusive multi-cultural synthesis of the various forms of government in the world, as expressed by the multiple languages used in the Super Bowl ad to sing a uniquely American hymn that celebrates our heritage. Seriously, what the gently caress is this. A bunch of people singing in different languages about how much they love America and over-marketed sugar water has gently caress all to do with government or the Constitution. This reads like some poor sap at Breitbart.com had to string together some kind of desperate justification for the inevitable conservative meltdown at the sight of non-white people singing a song about America in foreign languages.

All this Zimmerman poo poo reminds me of that Japanese guy who murdered some girl, chopped her up into pieces, ate them, and then largely avoided prison time for it. He became a minor celebrity and made money off of it. He showed up on talk shows now and then, appeared in a movie, and wrote a book about all the little details of the murder. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Issei_Sagawa Is Zimmerman going to write a book about murdering Trayvon Martin now?

B) Yes, he is for sure, I have no doubt that at some point he'll write a book about his plight under the tyranny of Obama and his black panther thugs.

Well according to the Japanese on that wiki page he was released on a technicality and isn't crazy. "Upon arrival in Japan, he was immediately taken to Matsuzawa hospital, where examining psychologists all found him to be sane, stating that sexual perversion was the sole motivation for the murder.[1] Japanese authorities found it legally impossible to detain him because the French government refused to release court documents (which remain secret) to Japan, claiming that the case had already been dropped in France."

It's part of the larger rightwing narrative preoccupied with the idea that racists, homophobes, and other types of bigots in their ranks are being 'persecuted' somehow by the march of tolerance and understanding in our culture that's been going around. Bigots feel that their intolerance is not being tolerated. I actually agree though. Bigotry should never be tolerated. Because it's loving bigotry.

I'd say there is something majorly broken in Zimmerman's brain too, for stalking and gunning down some black kid and for the domestic violence poo poo that's cropped up since then. I'm waiting for him to write a book and then go on a book tour so he can show up on right wing talk shows. I'm sure some GOP congressmen and right wing media figures would love to parade him around like with those Duck Dynasty shitheads.

It's exactly as unhealthy as regular sugar (really unhealthy). The only difference is it is significantly cheaper, so it gets put into more poo poo, and in greater quantities, than sugar would be. Pound for pound they are the same though. Bad.
