(Warning: Possible spoiler for "Black Panther")
According to this guy, black people should "bark" at white people for speaking without permission.
Anti-Western civilization GQ writer Damon Young wrote an op-ed for a blog site, where he's also the editor-in-chief. After seeing the new film "Black Panther," Young decided to adopt a method of one of the movie's main characters, M'baku.
Apparently - and I have yet to see the film - M'baku, along with his tribe, bark at people when they speak out of turn.
"One thing, however, that we can and definitely should start doing is what M’Baku and his Que Dog Jabari tribe did when encountering a problematic white dude who was speaking when there was no ask or need or purpose for the thoughts and opinions of problematic white dudes," Young wrote.
So, in Young's eyes, if you're white and end up in a conversation with a black person, you're not allowed to speak unless spoken to. Classy, and a really great way to sew the racial divisions actual racists are always talking about.
Young continued:
Not a purposeless bark. This isn’t a Shih Tzu barking through the window at a squirrel. Instead, this would be an intentional bark. A targeted bark. An overpowering bark. A drowning bark. A Wakandan bark. A bark meant to communicate, “Um, who told you that you can speak? When it is time for your words, we will let you know. And maybe that time will never come. We’ll see. Now, just shut up and stand there. Maybe get on your phone and Google ‘How not to be a colonizer.’ Whatever you do, I want to hear you not speaking.”
Wow! That level of unquestionable racism is typically reserved for members of the KKK or Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan.
To be honest, would barking really be the most constructive way to stop someone from speaking? I mean, if someone barked at me, I'd be thinking, "Okay, something's wrong with this guy?" Of course someone would naturally stop speaking if someone else were barking at them. It's weird. It would probably also ensure that the person wouldn't try and communicate with the "barker" again.
Maybe being so obnoxious that no one will talk to you is a good way of squelching discussion.
This is one movie I assure that I will avoid at all cost.
I’m tired of all the racism in the leftist media.If a white person spewed this crap they’ed Be thrown to the wolves.
A black guy does it and we should just laugh.To hell with that.
Was this the same article that the Root published? I recall something very similar published not long ago. It was truly stunning in its breadth of hatred.
I simply say: "No, comic book movies don't interest me".
Whatever I do, I won't be hiring you - so you won't ever have to hear me speaking. :)
Actually a more effective tool would be for young people to speak the Queens’ English when dealing with white people.
My response would be. Good boy. Now sit, shake, roll over
I think you hit the nail on the head with that comment about ARs.
Every liberal is a wannabe tyrant dictator......as you said........
GQ is a rag for “men” who worship themselves in the mirror to see if they are attractive to other men.
A person must really feel inferior to feel the need to promote their race all the time.
I feel no need to promote my race. I am perfectly comfortable with it.
Elaborate excuses are not necessary. I don’t do comic book movies, having outgrown comic books by age 12.
As long as they don’t start flinging their feces.
Start barking at me boy. Act like a crazed dog and get treated like one... just saying.
So we can treat them like a dog if they bark.
Unlike Wakanda, which has Vibranium and other cool stuff, most groups of people cannot afford to be so dismissive and uncooperative. They will find themselves quickly marginalized. If I am trying to communicate with somebody and they bark at me, I will simply walk away.
Cooperation is the key to mutually beneficial outcomes. If the other side starts barking, cooperation has pretty much gone by the boards.
So much for competing in the arena of ideas.
Actually, I think this is Dingo cultural appropriation.
You ever heard two Asian women on a walking trail. Both talking at the same time, loud, nobody listening. Talk about needing spinal surgery after they are gone.
I would just tell them that I outgrew Super Hero movies.
Bottom-feeders. Perfectly said. I always quote James Garner in Murphy’s Romance - I haven’t been to a movie since the Duke died.
