This stuff is beyond parody.
The big lib schools should “integrate” their racial and sex departments into one big
DPEARTMENT OF PERPETUAL WHINING.
The toys themselves are really very little influence. Peers and teachers...
If racism didn’t exist, it would have been invented.
All this is like a blister on our heel that will not be allowed to heal.
I used to joke about my toddler’s toys being endorsed by the Nevada Gaming Association because so many of them looked like slot machines and other gambling devices. I never saw any toys that looked racist to me.
At least everyone has a window seat.
So this is what they mean by “finding racism under every rock”... I know, that’s probably inherently racist for me to state it...
Really, can we work toward the day when anti-anti-racism is as successful as anti-anti-communists have been at deriding their opponents?
The biggest racists are those who see race in almost every facet of life. They hunt it out, they magnify it, they gather race into their arms and arguments, they are so consumed with the idea of racial difference, they can see no commonality among humankind. It is all division, all judgementalism, all disparagement all the time.
This is one humongous racist.
I would say it has more to too with who buys toys and who doesn’t.Since whites are still the majority in this country they are the ones buying the majority of toys.
WTF??
THIS I like, because it is like those starving children that need taxpayer paid for lunches, the obese children that need healthier (more expensive) taxpayer paid for lunches, laws making Happy Meals unhappy, the 10 million per year children k1lled because of the evil 2nd Amendment, and on and on.
It's for the Children !
If a Genie were to suddenly appear and promise to make racism go away tomorrow, there would be a stampede of black people and Democrats trying to kill the Genie ....
Imagine the repository of knowledge that bunch must represent.
The proper headline should be: “Imagining Racism in Inanimate Objects”, as taught in “Anthropomorphism 101” classes in the minority studies department.
We will be more free when we all stop caring if anybody thinks somebody or something is racist. It’s caring about wanting to not be called racist that makes us vulnerable to such extortion.
Take government money out of universities.
ALL. THE. WAY. OUT.
No grants. No loans. No government support at all. Sink or swim. If a corporations want to support science, fine. Their business. The government will buy the product the corporation sells when it’s ready.
If the universities want to survive, tell them to send in an accountant with a scalpel and cut out every crap course on bitter women studies and transgendered elk, fire every non-performing “professor”, eliminate every expenditure of funds that is not directly related to the advancement of education, and tell the students to buy their own frigging condoms.
Get the standards up, eliminate waste, get the tuitions down to reasonable levels and tell any kid who wants to attend that they better keep their grades up from the very beginning or they will be right out the door. No parties, no protests, no politics. You’re there to study and that’s ALL.
One thing for sure, if any university actually did any of this, they’d have more students they could handle because the employers at the other end of the pipeline would be snapping up the grads like crazy.
