“Where is the racism?”

Didn’t you get the memo? As of 11/3/15, everything is racist.

We might wee a bunch of white Democrats seeing the writing on the wall (or in this case the BLM graffiti ) and decide that a Democrat controlled environment is not to the benefit of White Lives Mattering.

".... clearly racist and deeply offensive...."

This is all empty rhetoric that I realized years ago does not have any substance behind it and it should be ignored.

There are only so many times people can claim racism and being offended when you realize the charges are baseless.

The democRATS and the Left use the accusatory "racist" and the "I am offended" so often as to devalue them into something worthless.

People used to be horrified in the past when called a racist but nowadays just laugh it off as liberals being liberals because they have no other argument.

The boy who cried wolf too many times....

Thank you!

It was more complicated that I thought. Now I don’t feel so dumb for not “getting it.” It goes without saying that it’s not racist, though.

Lori, why is it racist?
Do you identify as white?

Nah, Scooby is a dog of color.

“cant believe a teachers union did it”

Believe it. The Chicago Teachers Union is genuinely communist top to bottom. To the left of Lightfoot if that is possible. Let ‘em duke it out.

"Where is the racism?" It's kind of a Chicago in thing but beyond that there is a black and a rope in the same picture.😎

Uhhhh ...it's a 70's cartoon.

There is not really a group of teenagers driving around in a van, with a talking Great Dane, solving mysteries 🙄.

because scooby doo characters are white

Scooby-Doo is clearly a person of color.

Whoever did this made the mayor much less unattractive looking. You have to admit.

In modern times, Velma has become the popular one. Cosplayers have made a strong case.

A lot more women are built like Velma than Daphne so it’s easier to cosplay (not that I’m complaining too much)

I can’t stand teachers unions or chiraq mayors. They’re all horrible people. Enjoy the in-fighting.
