Mother Jones: "Eating Three Meals a Day is Racist"
Pundit Press ^ | 3/5/15 | Aurelius

Posted on 03/05/2015 7:18:07 AM PST by rightistight

In one of the dumbest articles ever to see the light of day, Mother Jones has declared that eating three meals a day is "racist."

The piece, titled "Why You Should Stop Eating Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner," was written by Kiera Butler, a senior editor, and was published yesterday.

How is eating food racist? Butler explains that white Europeans brought the tradition of eating three meals a day with them to the "New World."

"When European settlers got to America, they also imported their meal habits," Butler writes, "a light meal—maybe cold mush and radishes—in the morning, a heavier, cooked one midday, and a third meal similar to the first one later in the day. They observed that the eating schedule of the native tribes was less rigid."

However, when food was scarce, natives "fasted. The Europeans took this as "evidence that natives were uncivilized," Butler writes, citing an email she received from someone who wrote a book.

Can I just make a statement here? We Europeans started this country. If you came here from another continent, you came to a Judeo Christian country of white Europeans. GET USED TO IT. It’s not “racist” to be like us, it’s merely who this country was and is.
Stupid jerks.

As we all know, Mary Harris Jones hated redneck coal miners. She spent all day fretting about “indigenous pipples” and “racism.” And dang it all, she was going to transgender.[/sarcasm]

Gasp, the stupid is so strong in this one that even the force might not be able to help.

I suggest multiple pulls of the flush lever. It floats, but may be consumed by the whirlpool.

The comment section of MJ is hilarious. It’s been overrun, it seems, by freepers.

Not racist. Culturist. And so what. Some cultures are better than others.

However, 40 oz. of malt liquor as a meal is definitely not racist.

So not eating 3 meals a day leads to being an unproductive culture that fails. Good to know.

Miss Butler appears to be quite white. Many whites are as nutty as professional blacks.

Our family has to sneak around when we eat fried chicken or watermelons. Why must we live with this guilt? You rarely see Negroes drinking champagne or eating caviar because they know that’s racist also.

The magazine’s fanaticism about labeling everything racist is deluded by its incessant rantings on the absurd.

The old adage, “when you’re a hammer everything looks like a nail” applies to these bigot hunters. They obviously thumb through their 1955 set of “World Book” encyclopedia seeing how many things could possibly be “racist”. Tunnel vision is their litmus test stamping “racist” people, places, and things faster than Obama can veto anything Republican.

This should justify a huge decrease in free school breakfasts and lunches, and a cut to food stamps of at least 33%.

We will save trillions.
