cole256 17,059 Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 Probably could have used any of the many memes where me isn't a monkey saying the exact same thing.... Come on, man! It wasn't about being black. Geesh! If you don't EVER have anything to say the other way there's no need to say anything now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cole256 17,059 Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 Cole, Cole, Cole. C'mon, man. Sure, I could have used any other meme, but the caption fit best, and in so doing, I would have been reinforcing the very idea I'm trying to disspell. Calm down. The irony here is that we're talking about how insensitive it is for me to post a well-known meme that by pure happenstance places a gorilla face over a black man's body on a thread that attacks hypersensitivity. Honestly, I didn't even think about the racial implications when I ran across the meme, which is kind of what we're trying to achieve, is it not? How on this particular meme they reinforced the monkey having that mustache and hair style no I do not care for it. I didn't call you a racist, didn't say you hated anybody, I just don't understand why you would find that funny. And lol at people coming at me like something is my fault. One of the things racist people do is refer to black people as monkeys....And I'm supposed to be wrong for not liking the black man being made into a monkey? No I don't like it Gtfoh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cole256 17,059 Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 Weagle1787....unfortunately in those like cole the answer is NO. You shouldn't EVER feel like you can or should speak for me.

AURaptor 1,122 Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 I know I'm late to the party, but on this one, I think Cole has a solid case. Granted, I first had to google - rustled jimmies To disturb someone by presenting them with facts/arguments that cause cognitive dissonance and challenge their views. .But the McMillian stuff which followed... And as for the original flag... I'm HIGHLY offended there aren't any Muslim crescent moons on it !! Allahu Akbar !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeBags7277 734 Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 The mustache and hair style are distinguishing characteristics of Jimmy McMillan. I'm not sure the meme still makes sense if they aren't there. Another favorite of mine is the Dark Knight Rises one, which superimposes the Bane mask over the gorilla face. Its hard to make it clear what is being referenced without doing so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DKW 86 7,419 Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 http://i3.kym-cdn.co...862/460/f71.jpg Cole, I have no idea how they even questioned you on that one. I mean i really, honest to God, have no idea.I swear some of the folks on this board are so detached from reality it makes one marvel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeBags7277 734 Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Ha! Ha! Now they are attacking each other! 1. I'm not attacking Cole, and I don't feel he is attacking me. I'm only clarifying my intent. Nothing more, nothing less. 2. What do you mean by "they?" Homosapiens? Just curious. The only issue I can recall the two of us agreeing on consistently are those relating to the police state. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUDub 11,147 Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 How on this particular meme they reinforced the monkey having that mustache and hair style no I do not care for it. It's common with this meme. I didn't call you a racist, didn't say you hated anybody, I just don't understand why you would find that funny. For the same reason he would find the one with Gandalf above funny. And lol at people coming at me like something is my fault. One of the things racist people do is refer to black people as monkeys....And I'm supposed to be wrong for not liking the black man being made into a monkey? No I don't like it Do you believe that was the intent of the meme and Weagle's use of it or an unfortunate implication, like I said earlier? And keep in mind my position on race relations and social justice, Cole. I tend to be very outspoken on the matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And keep in mind my position on race relations and social justice, Cole. I tend to be very outspoken on the matter. I don't know anybody intentions, I just didn't care particularly for this one. I'm just voicing my opinion, once again not questioning the op's character. I didn't call for mods to do something about this, none of that. Being called a monkey before and also hearing people refer to other blacks as that before I just don't too much care for it. That's all, I wish he would've used another meme. I'm thinking that's the entire point is to be able to talk about things without reverting to the insults or what not. Now other people jumping in with the so's and how do you even know he's black looks like a white guy....those are the people that would have you believe there isn't a problem and all things are made up.
