Intersectionality

[Pickman's model]

Has urban gone intersectional yet then?

we're at a crossroads

 

[pengaleng]

they should have called it 'cultural misappropriation' as well, fucking dickhead americans.

if you wanna seriously offend an american now all you have to do is say they are appropriating something because appropriation is like the worst thing ever even if you use the word correctly.

 

[pengaleng]

we're at a crossroads

because this is england.

 

[pengaleng]

Personally, I'm all for 'cultural appropriation' as they call it. If anything we need more of it just to demonstrate that culture is not a static, homogenous, unchanging blob that needs protecting. Culture always has, and always should be, encouraged adapt and intermingle and cross-fertilise. To argue otherwise is to claim that it somehow has an 'essence' or purity that can only be tarnished by outsiders. And there's a proper dodgy conclusion to that line of logic.

Saying that I won't be getting corn-rows anytime soon.

HITLER TRIED FOR A PURE CULTURE ONCE.

Did you read the actual post, or just bimble's selective edit?

Oh yes. The whole thing isn't much better, or much different. In fact the worst bit ('the higher you score') isn't in bimbles quote.

The idea that a black working class lesbian might not face oppression is...interesting.

 

[pengaleng]

one thing I have learned about being oppressed is that everyone who aint you loves sitting around talking about it

And if you'd read that in context with what I'd already written on the thread, you'd know that I'm not the one doing the scoring.

Are you implying that I've claimed that?

It is in the quote.

 

[pengaleng]

oooooooh it's gonna kick off, lads

BEEEF BEEF BEEEF BEEF!!!!

 

[ViolentPanda]

It is in the quote.

That's a "no", then, given I make clear by saying "even if",that the possibility is unlikely.

Where does bovine flesh intolerance fit on the wheel of oppression?

 

[Magnus McGinty]

I'm not going to read this whole thread but I do think, if you're a white man shouting loudly about how silly the whole idea of intersectionalism is (because all that matters is class, and you're working class) you should possibly have a look at yourself.

Because the best thing to do is to see each other as different thus weakening the best bargaining chip we have which is class unity?

Somewhere close to racism.

Mm, that's you accepting I was right. Still, whatever

 

[pengaleng]

we are all different, I are not the same as you

embrace differences now if you wanna get ahead in polotics. point out exactly why everyone doesnt fit in so progressive

 

[pengaleng]

Somewhere close to racism.

yeah but i bet racist meat tastes nasty

 

[ViolentPanda]

Mm, that's you accepting I was right. Still, whatever

As you say, whatever.

Clapping is African-American??

rhythmic clapping and shouting "preach" are frequent expressions in african-american churches, so much so that they've become characterizing.
i can agree with that twitterer's annoyance at a white shouting "preach", but the clapping business is ridiculous.
e2a i see this has also been addressed above

Has it? Really

Yeah

 

[belboid]

Yeah

Not a very convincing example
