Black Comedian: Whites Should be Banned from Making Fun of White People
Pundit Press ^ | 2/6/15 | Aurelius

Posted on 02/06/2015 2:12:14 PM PST by rightistight

Jazmine Hughes is tired of people making jokes about white people. Ms. Hughes is African American. And, no, she is not saying that minority people should not make fun of white people. Instead, she argues that white people need to stop making fun of white people.

African Americans and other minorities simply need to make fun of white people. That is a simple truth, according to Hughes. The fact of the matter is that minorities need racist humor "to placate themselves in the face of the overwhelming reality: It’s just better to be Caucasian."

Racist humor against whites, she continues, is "one of the most enjoyable" ways to "fight prejudice." But it is not something whites should do, even if they're making fun of themselves.

"This is how the party ends," Hughes writes, "with white people wanting in on the joke so badly that they create a separate category of “cool” white people who mock their own whiteness in an effort at solidarity."

Jokes about white people, Hughes continues, are not actually about white people, but are about "socioeconomic circumstances" and truthful "inequalities between whites and other races."

In the very rare circumstance that "white people are the actual target," she explains, it's not actually about all whites, but funny things that certain parts of the white community do.

So much self-loathing in such a tiny person.

Jazmine needs to seek help for the absolute chaos going on between her ears.

Liberal humans should be banned from attempting to ban everything.

If only we’d known it was so easy to rationalize racism.

So I suppose its racist for white people to laugh at jokes about white people told by black comedians?

Let me see if I understand this now.

Its OK for black people to laugh at white people. But I can’t - as a whitie - laugh at another whitie?

If I laugh at Larry the Cable guy or Ron White, then I’m a racist?

Ohhh-Kayyy

Yeah. Whatever.

Why don’t all the white people just go away?

Then let’s see what happens to the world.

And if White comedians are banned from making fun of whites, they'll make fun of . . . ?

I have a better idea.

Everybody can make fun of everybody, and anyone who gets seriously offended can get therapy.

I am so done caring about what black racists and their white enablers think about anything.

Fo’ shizzle. Know whut I’m sayin’? You you feel me bro?

Alright there little missy. From now on I’ll only laugh at black people.

While I think it’s absurd to assert that white people should be “banned” from making jokes about white people, I do find most white comics’ riffs about white people to be obvious pandering to black people. Most white comics who riff on white people posit that: white people have no right to complain about anything because they are white and, therefore, per se “privileged”; and white people are dorky. Yawn to both points.

The last thread I posted on was on pot legalization. I think this thread proves my point. We have too many sucky people in America. We don't want more.
