Essentially, it's Poe's Law in action.
"It's racist to expect PoC to adhere to a schedule because they don't understand how time works" - some anti-racism activist probably
Speaking of Poe's Law, the Babylon Bee has started putting out some really good satire
Like the other day when they put out the story of people sending Bernie economics books
Augh, who was it that reported on someone saying that 'civility is a white trait'?
Was that Tim?
Is it just me or did the onion go down in quality after they were bought by univision?
No, it's not just you
The idea of time being colonial is just a way of explaining away bad behavior. "I'm not on time. It is a trait of 'me people'. Time and timeliness is the creation of the white devil."
Basically anyone not on the far left agrees that the Onion has gone downhill
It's been a lot of people saying that about civility the last week. Also don't forget them conflating political correctness and civility to try and point out hypocrisy in those who say that civility is good.
Hows that not gonna backfire
Like you are taking the best parts of civilized life and saying its bad cause white
Yeah, but they need to tear everything down because the pipe dream utopia in their head is totally going to work
It's basically turned into "<thing> is bad because it was made by white people"
Its like they want pocsvti be savages
'Not trying to kill one another for disagreements is whiteness'
'End whiteness'
Everyone knows making things terrible is the first step to improving things
not unlike the "Fucking white people and their... *rolls die*... <thing>" meme
i wonder if they have these discussions in countries where white people are minorites - but the opposite way around
Un in malaysia
In that the minorities are actually discriminated
Nah, put the UN in Antarctica, put a penguin in charge
Not white, but chinese are considered I heard
or better yet, *The* Penguin
Pingu?
Oh yeah, I just remembered the terms are 'monochronic' and 'polychronic' where monochronic societies care about schedules, and polychronic ones are less static and dependent on time
so in malaysia the majority would be malaysian ... so do they have discussions about how terrible malaysians are over there?
In a place with seasons. Being able to tell the time is darn important
No they dont. Some of the more conservative malays have wierd ideas about the chinese
You, this #walkaway movement is real. And I feel left out as a Libertarian.
It's nice being able to step over the border into a country where I'm a minority so that I can be as prejudiced as I want, but it's ok because I'm oppressed
The other way round I dont hear much
time is important for many things, especially navigation
i3utm, you could still walk away from the Libertarian party
Well, apparently that is what I have done. So I am now a no vote voter.
so its not at all the same in malasyia then 😛
No different actually I realized. Alot of neo nazis say dont do x cause jews made it
The far left say the same bout whites
yeah thats not what I mean
