They should have used Civilization!

So when someone insists on using foreign grammar, wearing foreign clothes, and following foreign societal norms under the guise of celebrating their ethnic heritage, why would they be offended by someone else trying to musically join in the celebration ?

[Bloody Sam Roberts]

So the lyrics are pretty harmless. Is it that these whiners are ashamed of what they insist on calling their homeland? I don’t get what they think the affront is.

[Red Badger]

Well, at least they didn’t play ‘Cotton Fields Back Home’ .........................

[vpintheak]

These woke SOB’s aren’t smart enough to realize they can never be woke enough. This is a modern day Nazi society they have created.

[AFB-XYZ]

So tired of America’s bullshit Africa-worship . . . .

[Vermont Lt]

Good thing no one was watching.

[Political Junkie Too]

Who is this "some" that they speak of?

[Red Badger]

These same people would have bitched if Elon Musk, who is from South Africa, had been a presenter and they played that same song.......

[Bloody Sam Roberts]

[Red Badger]

I’m offended that I’m not outraged!.............

[Mr. K]

I'm offended that you're not outraged! (OUTRAGED!!!)

[gitmo]

Why is that a problem?

Is the term African American now racist?

What are H.E.R.'s pronouns?

T.H.I.R.? Y.I.R.?

...or “Bungle in the Jungle” by Jethro Tull

According to Calypso Louie, whitey stole all the knowledge for all of today’s tech from the African negroes 500 years ago, then dumbed down the population by enslaving all of the geniuses and putting them on ships to America. That’s why African nations are 3rd world countries today.

Yeah. Okay. If they were so high-tech, how did this bunch of low-tech white people take their high-tech stuff and dumb them down? Did they have a Black Biden equivalent in charge?

[HighSierra5]

Nag. Nag. Nag. These people are just a bunch of naggers.

[V_TWIN]

Farakkan is certifiable.

On many occasions I’ve seen blacks make racist comments about each other......many of them place a great deal of emphasis on how light or dark their skin is.......lighter skinned blacks are supposedly somehow more superior.

[LukeL]

I’m offended that such a great song was used during the Oscars.
