I guess that’s why I can’t find those chocolate covered “toes” that I oh so loved as a young child?

OH NO, they referred to it at least ONCE in a derogatory manner decades ago that was common at the time! Removing it will surely cure any racism on the campus and surrounding areas, I'm sure of it!

Hey-ho, hey-ho, that racist rock has got to go! Am I right guys/girls, they/them, xe/xey, xi/xy, fae/faer, ze/zey, mae/meow, zin/zer, and zorbot/zerbots?!?

I’d gladly give them permission to move it. I’d also donate a dozen sled hammers. Great way to work out all their emotions.

Seriously! Could you imagine, really could you imagine the absolute uproar having a White Student Union would cause?

This is normal behavior in 2021. Not ridiculous at all.

I’m guessing that 99% of students at that college have no idea why the rock is even sitting there.

That's what my grandpa always called those big grey rocks they put under bridges. I thought it was something his old arse made up.

Sometimes, I think woke black people are just trolling... It would make more sense than actually being offended by a rock.

Do we need to also remove any blacks or their descendants who were called “n——-head” in the past?

Life must be infinitely hard for someone when a rock becomes hurtful.

This was back in the 90s, but in the small town of White Castle there was a black dude who ran for city council, a lot of people just knew he by his nickname "super nword" so when he registered for the election he included his nickname and won (the city council doesn't have districts, it might be like 5 members and if 7 or 8 people run, the top 5 vote getters wins).

Four years later when it was time for re-election the voter registrar office wouldn't let him use the nword so he couldn't put is nickname and he lost the election.

I wonder if that happened today (a black person nicknamed "super nword" running for office and putting that name on the ballot) what would happen.

Would the whites who are woke be upset? What about the blacks that are woke? Would they try to cancel a black dude for using that name, which was a nickname other people game him?
