Lawns Are Symbols of Racism, Bad for Global Warming

Botti says lawns are part of the “colonizing of America,” which transformed the landscape from “pristine wilderness” to “identical rows of manicured nature.”
“These lawns come on the backs of slaves,” he continues, zooming in on a painting of George Washington in a field to highlight men cutting the grass with scythes. “It’s grueling, endless work.”
“By the 1870s we also see American culture slowly start to embrace lawns for the privileged masses,” he states.

Lol the word racism means absolutely nothing now. It has been so watered down by a particular group.

It must be a sad life to walk around looking for thing that you think could be racist.

Ohh thanks for the reminder.
Let me open up my Rachio app and kick off my sprinklers this AM.

"Global warming" doesn't mean much more than that because it's synonymous with the agenda for the radical left.

You are correct. Global warming and racism mean absolutely nothing.

Well I guess the Home/Garden Board is like a daily Klan rally now. Since I like my lawn neat, does that make me an aspiring racist?

When I was a hard working 12-15 year old earning a little extra summer cash mowing neighborhood lawns, I had no idea I was being racist by doing so.

Not exactly racist, per se. You were, however, guilty of cultural appropriation by doing a job that only a black slave should be doing.

Definitely, I’ve also upgraded the material type of my KKK robe and hood to a more reasonable and breathable water wicking material, instead of the pure cotton cotton robe I had back then.

They had to come up with a dumber racism narrative since the 'white on white racism' narrative, aka the 'Fredo' shite came about.
Anyone want to wager what the next racism bullshite is?
No tats
Not wearing Jordans
Shaving your head if you're a white guy
Driving and NOT texting
OEM rims
Just saying the word racism

Guaranteed. When they realize the word is overused and worthless they are going to blame that on white pepo. So the mere use of the word by a non POC will then be racist. But they will be allowed to use it with impunity.
