    On from yoga studios to Bruno Mars.

    These social media outrage activists are fucking imbeciles.

    They're making it so that can't even politely point out black influence in culture without being told to shut up.

    Not BLM specifically, but it's the same type of BS social media outrage activism over trivial garbage that led to this yoga studio being targeted.

    Also, I don't like saying that "BLM" is doing something or another. It's too loosely organized and you have people claiming to be "BLM leaders" doing all sorts of shit, some of which is good and some of which is incredibly stupid.

    True.


    The Bruno Mars thing is fucking retarded. That dude has given the most of props to black folks. What more do they want the man to do?

    Dude is super talented, respectful to black artists, hires black artists, and everybody fucking likes him.

    He's literally the worst possible person that you can go after if you want to make this point.

    A legit target would have been somebody like Robin Thicke, who straight up ripped off Marvin Gaye without giving him credit and had to be taken to court to pay the Gaye estate royalties.

    ...but none of those "woke sistas" wanted to say shit about him because he was married to a BW when he was hot.

    A couple of his black writers who has album credit defended him on twitter.

    Every time a black chick says the words "cultural appropriation" someone should wave a wig in their face to remind them that they go around literally wearing other cultures' actual hair on their heads (and sometimes yak hair)... purchased from simple-minded nazis (koreans)... and as often as not, dyed blonde.

    And let's not forget the growing trend of them talking in obnoxious valley-girl accents (oh wait -- they're just speaking "proper" :rolleyes:).

    Fact is, you can't police what people sing, any more than you can police what people wear or the way they speak. If you gotta play the race game (~and yes, we do~), at least play it smart.
