The only podcast I've ever really gotten into was WTF with Marc Maron, and you can download those episodes so long as they're recent. Is that not the case for these ones? I like saving hours-long radio-esque talks for when I'm deep into my vidya games, but maybe I should jump on these while they're up?

I like they start out the Podcast with Charlie Day talking about how he shouldn't have eaten cheese before the podcast. I guess even though they don't say much about the episodes, their natural chemistry is just enjoyable. Would be even better if they could get Olson and maybe DeVito in there too...

People are laughing at the joke, which usually revolves around the absurdity of blackface, because nobody watching the show actually thinks the blackface in and of itself is funny. That seems to be not very racist, but nuance and intent are dead so who knows. ChesterJT fucked around with this message at 15:05 on Nov 20, 2021 |

Everybody gets that. But a huge chunk of the audience doesn't care because they just got to laugh at a racist thing they enjoy and got to see it be mainstreamed. There are absolutely people who are going to be laughing at blackface just for the blackface, and they're encouraged by getting to see this stuff on television.

My wife has a lot of family who live in Queensland, and a few months back they had an "Africa themed costume party". Guess what the costume was that her aunt and uncle proudly put on the family group chat.

Also blackface is still pretty common unironically. It’s not on mainstream TV anymore but even that is pretty recent comparably.

Doesn't make much sense on its face, does it? They also love being "embarrassed" on national TV because it's good for recruitment and they know it. That people expect bigotry to conform to logic is the weird thing.

Romper Stomper was great, maybe I'll give that a rewatch soon. AHX I liked, but I can't help but feel that the way it ends doesn't exactly help its message. As someone mentioned upthread the 'IASIP to alt-right pipeline' is a real thing - I recently left a Sunny meme group because it was full of Rittenhouse stans. Either that or the show just attracts those types of edgelords who are too dim to read between the lines and think the Gang are heroes, already too far gone to the alt-right. Satirical media influencing some awful behaviour isn't anything new though. I'm not entirely unconvinced that the re-invigoration of outright antisemitic discourse is due to South Park laying it on heavy with the Jew jokes.

Mister Speaker posted:What's this about? Do I want to know? The poster is insinuating that you don't want to know. But well, originally, there was supposed to be another woman playing Dee. That change seems a bit peculiar knowing that Rob and Kaitlin are married nowadays. By modern standards that feels a bit sleezy. It might be nothing, but it's probably not worth digging that up.

Here's a good account that I remember reading (probably linked from an ancestor of this thread) like five years ago: https://medium.com/@ramshackleglam/the-real-its-always-sunny-in-philadelphia-origin-story-852a0b17e75f It's a rough situation, but not nearly as scandalous as whatever people in here keep gleefully dancing around.

That's a great scene, goes on for about 15 minutes. The skinheads are outnumbered with the first group of Vietnamese guys, then a bunch more arrive (most of them have baseball bats and 2X4s) and the few racists who can still walk try to escape. Vietnamese guys follow the nazis back to their poo poo hovel hideout and set it on fire. If you're still thinking "those nazis are real stand up gents, good people" after that you probably need your head examined (maybe with a baseball bat or 2X4).

It's not even blackface, the Drow don't have the same history with America and it's lowkey racist to hijack the person offensively donning drowface makeup with a whimsical accent not representative of anyone who respects or understands drow culture -- to use it to make a point about some other groups of people unrelated culturally and historically.
