Black Activist claims white men wearing black socks is equivalent to Blackface

Jeez! Completely ridiculous

A high-profile newspaper paid her for that.

Er it's not real.

Troll troll troll your boat...

God, are you dumb, OP.

OMG

Why stop at socks? Why not clothes? Why not women.

Maybe I should read the essay.

Fake

Good luck with that.

The reason why there is serious response is that the premise of the title is entirely plausible. We've heard more ridiculous statements from people who were serious.

This is a fake racist twitter account that is making mock-ups of a guardian page. Notice how the link is to a stupid image and not any actual content anywhere. OP is a racist cunt, FF and ban.

RACIST. TROLL. THREAD. CLOSED!!!!

They also says a white man smoking a cigar really wants to suck a brown cock.

[quote] We've heard more ridiculous statements from people who were serious.

No, you haven't.

This is too stupid to be real

Is this British humour?

Is this the same person behind Titania McGrath and Jarvis Dupont?

Any idiot on social media makes ridiculous claims and people go crazy—as if it’s a widely held belief. Even attribute the dumb statement to the beliefs of a whole group/race/political organization. And some people are just waiting for the smallest provocation to start spewing their own biases. We have to not take the bait.

Sock puppet

Shaniqua O’Toole, in hijab. HAHAHAHA

There is a fair amount of trolling in this kind of "activism", like the people who will stand in front of guilt-ridden white people and say "Well, just give money to black and brown people, they deserve your money more than you do".

They're laughing inside. They know guilt-ridded white people will let them get away with anything.

R19 Are you describing the divisive Kamala Harris?

That has to be a joke !

So all those years that black men were wearing white socks they were appropriating my skin color?

Some people say shit to attract attention. Has anyone ever heard of this woman until now?

R9, R10 The reason why there is serious response is that the Guardian newspaper frequently lambastes its reader for the sin of being Non-Black.

The Guardian newspaper in Australia chastises its readers EVERY week for undocumented events that happened 180 yers ago. The Guardian trains its reader to hate their nation and to hate themselves. (It also censors commentary on 95% of all their limited amount of inflammatory articles)

To everyone asking if this is real or if this is a joke; NO! IT'S NOT REAL! YES, IT'S A JOKE!

There is no link to click on. Not a real story.

(Good one OP :-)

Embarrassing.

Thread still appears to be open R10, you outraged SJW you. xxx ooo

"Shaniqua O'Toole".... really? We needed to be told that this was fake?

Anyway, I recognized that face from many a 'sassy black woman' meme:

You'll have to rip my little black dress off my cold, dead, emaciated body.

No they won't. And no they aren't "guilt ridden". Trust me, they are the ones laughing inside when some moron demands money for being black.

R10 is very committed.

Or ought to be.

r23 You don't like the Guardian. What do you think of the racist right-wing Australian newspapers, particularly the ones owned by Rupert Murdoch?

R31 Which Australian newspapers does Rupert Murdoch's company own?

r32 I thought you were Australian, since you referenced the Australian edition of the Guardian, which is a British newspaper.

R33 I thought you might have some actual factual knowledge of the matter.

1. I know that company owners like to buy and sell newspapers.

2. I know that too many newspapers these days are peddling opinions rather than facts.

3. I know that I'm forced to look at a few media companies and to read them ALL with skepticism.

4. I know that all versions of the Guardian train their readers to hate their nation and to hate their culture.

5. I know simple-minded people latch onto things onto which they can vent their simple-minded hatreds (they include old Mr Murdoch).

6. I know that the Australian version of the Guardian is continuously obsessed in training their readers to continually obsess over undocumented events that may have happened 180 years ago while the American version is only infrequently obsessed over the evil/sinful Christopher Columbus.

r34 You vent your simple-minded hatred on the Guardian and give racist old Mr Murdoch a pass.

Fake and gay - but not necessarily in that order.

Some of the commentators in the English Guardian arts pages are VERY erudite. They're more knowledgeable than the original article.

Although this headline is blatantly fake, I do wonder sometimes if the Guardian is just trying to inflame racial tensions further. This

[quote] Having seen only the trailer for Leaving Neverland, whatever confessional justice was intended by its two informants is compromised by its director’s hackneyed, tabloid true-crime approach. It doesn’t mean the testimony is untrue, just that it depends on the film-makers selling several racially burdened oxymorons at once: white-male innocence, white-male fragility and white-male truth-telling.

I understand their point about society being more willing to believe the word of white people and to view white people as innocent. But "white-male fragility"? In this context, that's disturbing. It seems to be implying that a non-white child would have fought back, or wouldn't have been as traumatised by the abuse.

This is satire from an alleged humor account and this isn't even CLOSE to the first time OP has posted something like this. All he does is post old news that was debunked, satire, or fake Onion-like articles and pass them off as real, and it's embarrassing how many of you fall for it.

R35 Can you give us a link to where Mr Murdoch demonstrates in any way what you choose to describe as "racism"?
