Assuming a black person is black, is racist. All current words for "black" or "retarded" .... whatever those words are, will eventually be assumed to be negative. Black was okay 20 years ago. But it isn't now. What's the word now that is acceptable? Anyone know? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SenatorRock 708 Posted September 10, 2018 What is most disturbing is the fact that the 4am talking points went out and the propaganda blogs once again put out the exact same talking points. https://i.imgur.com/aOYuJHV.jpg Anyone who thinks our press is honest and fair is a focking idiot.

peenie 1,691 Posted September 11, 2018 Agree, but is the cartoon of Serena really that far off? All 3 are far off and it would have been funny if he had not changed them to white people and made a racist caricature of Serena. Very similar to the racist depiction of Michelle Obama on the New Yorker cover. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vuduchile 1,941 Posted September 11, 2018 Im no Serena fan, and I think her behavior in the US Open was a pitiful. But you guys are kidding yourselves if you dont think the caricature of Serena has a racist slant. On the other hand, his depiction of Osaka is completely devoid of slant.

I would likely go back to my original thought which is, it really doesn't matter how he represents her, when you are looking for and want it to be there, you will find it. His mistake was attempting to draw her at all 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
