The irony


This is one of my favorite OT Moderate/Progressive tactics.

The New Nazis do something insane. Normal people point out the absurdity. Moderate/Prog jumps in and then deflects, saying talking about it at all makes you guilty.

Then uses a word (irony) incorrectly.

When you have a low IQ, this is the MO.

Why bring attention to this for a 60 year old film?


Because it was made by white people and starred white actors.

This is big on the M/TV board.

Myself and others have spent years saying how Hollywood's racist practices are ruining movies. The "moderates/progressives" say we just hate black people and women.

Then Disney's racist guidelines for movies came out proving what myself and many others have been saying for years. They try to mental gymnastics their way out of literal evidence that proves my point, then they either don't respond or continue to mental gymnastic their way out of it.

Wait. Hold on.

You equate the wacko who found one word in a 60 year old movie and took it upon themselves to fight the movie industry to flag the entire classic movie as inappropriate for the entire country.

As equal to the guy who posts the article on OT to laugh at the clown show?

Why tear down century old statues? Why dig up long dead soldiers?


Because they want to destroy everything they can. They cannot create. They can only corrupt, twist and destroy, much like Morgoth.

"While ‘Mary Poppins’ has a historical context, the use of discriminatory language is not condemned, and ultimately exceeds our guidelines for acceptable language at U," the spokesperson said. "We therefore classified the film PG for discriminatory language.”


Should "condemned" here be "condoned?" Sentence seems contradictory.

Of course he does. It’s what prog trash always do here. They’re ashamed of their own absurdity so they deflect.

Equate? No

The content of the OP is incredibly stupid, and it’s fine to laugh at.

I’m just also going to laugh at the posters who get so mad about stuff like this that you can feel them shaking through the screen, because in reality the shite doesn’t matter at all.

I swear some of them have alerts set for the most mundane culture war happenings around the world so they can run here to post them and circle jerk about how the world is going to hell and pat each other on the back for being above it all.

The reality is I wouldn’t know half of what I do about this stuff if it wasn’t for this board being obsessed with it and spreading it around.


So yeah, to each their own, but it is funny to me.

Sure, that’s why I find it weird to spend a lot of time/energy on them in return

Let's not worry about all the shite kids are exposed to on social media, 9 year old rappers with twerking strippers, etc. No let's worry about the word "Hottentot" in Mary Poppins.
