Yogi, as in Yogi Bear, is a thinly-veiled bigoted code for “it’s them blacks again.”

Here are a few specific example: https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/4319968/posts?page=38#38 and https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/4313998/posts?page=35#35 and https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/4242018/posts?page=3#3.

Searching for “yogi” as a keyword fleshes this out: https://freerepublic.com/tag/yogi/index?tab=articles

And people wonder why FReepathons take so long.

I knew exactly what you meant. And it’s totally true.

I didn’t understand “ask for Yogi” though.

I still don’t, although this is quite clear:

Yogi, as in Yogi Bear, is a thinly-veiled bigoted code for “it’s them blacks again.”

I’m not sure the genesis and hadn’t noticed before.
