All that most maddens and torments; all that stirs up the lees of things; all truth with malice in it; all that cracks the sinews and cakes the brain; all the subtle demonisms of life and thought; all evil were visibly personified, and made practically assailable in Fry.

Look out for my new YA dystopia trilogy, The City of People Who Didn't Have Whooping Cough.

So thick that even Imgur is seeing through it (somewhat). Most of the comments are "why don't we fix both!!!!!" but a few people have pointed out how using the images of people of color in power as a way to try and prove that "racism is over" is really, really gross.

"I interviewed this man the other day... Interesting take on Black Lives Matter/Blue Lives Matter."

quote:

"I don't get all this 'Black Lives Matter' - 'Blue Lives Matter' divide. I been around here since '57 and I never been to jail. All I see now are these young-in's running around getting shot because they think they can do whatever they want. That's not how it works, but you can't tell them that. I know what real racism looks like and I haven't seen the likes of that ugly face in years. What needs to happen is unity. Respect your fellow man and 99% of the time, they'll respect you back no matter what you look like. I'm living proof of that."

Ugh, my arm is shaking a bit. The instant pairing of BLM with a phrase that was circulated to discredit it is the first sign.

Making a it a youth vs. elders thing is also gross because 1) So many internet people who think they're smart just because they say "kids these days" even though they're 20. and 2) "See, it isn't about race!!!"

Because bikers have had a great relationship with law enforcement over the years duh. Totally not because they're racist. Nope.

My girlfriend showed me an interview with this sheriff the other day to show me how great his points were. All I got from him in the whole interview was "nuh-uh, those figures weren't true, they're lying" but nothing backing up those claims.

gently caress man, Imgur almost makes you long for the simple racism of YouTube comments. I think Imgur's racism is so hard to take because it comes from a place of perceived intelligence, like they really thought it through and metered racism is their conscious choice. I'd rather get a quick drive by dose of comically overblown racism from YouTube than what Imgur serves up on a daily basis.

What's that you say? Imgur puts racism on the front page? Why I--

The title is "MRW my black gf invites me to join BLM protest, but I'm asian." and I feel like it was a trap people fell for hook, line and sinker.

On the bright side, it looks like most of the top rated comments are making fun of the image or talking about how racist the imgur user base is.

Maybe they wouldn't have had riots if they released the video quickly. They kept saying how it would "hurt their investigation", yet they're never called out on that bullshit. Want to prevent riots? Make police immediately justify their actions.

fake edit: Imgur gets a lot of poo poo, but if you look at the 2nd or 3rd comment in any really racist post, there's someone calling them out. The problem is that that comment isn't 1st, and there are dozens of deplorable comments below that. At least give a little credit to those guys telling people that they're abhorrent shitheels.
