i’ve heard a total of maybe 1.5 gorillaz songs in my life but the shit with murdoc is the funniest thing i’ve ever witnessed
like, as i understand it: cartoon band is made of four people- nice blue hair guy with the big eyes, big guy who may be haunted???, the Most Adorable Girl and a pile of trash who kinda looks like the beatles. beatle trash dude somehow gets replaced with a minor villain from the powerpuff girls and everyone likes him better
theres a rape joke in the fucking new video more clear than the last you keep that fucking bullshit off my dash im not even joking right now i wont hesitate
white people trying to distract from the realities of africas suffering: “HGSJSDJ THE NEW :HISTORY OF” VIDEO HAS A RAPE JOKE. DONT WATCH IT”
yall literally went to africa and raped people. thats not a joke, its what yall did. shut up.
It was LITERALLY a rape of Africa- Europeans raped several cultures and countries. They went in, destroying culture dynamics, exterminated tribes, stole and raped and murdered and plundered and did everything disgusting and terrible.
I’m glad he called it for what it was. It wasn’t a fuckin joke m8.
This isn’t even him going out on a limb with his phrasing. This part of history is commonly, academically referred to as “the rape of Africa,” like “the rape of Nanking” or “the rape of Belgium.” That’s just…what it’s called.
he’s–making a reference to the academic concept. this isn’t your college buddy saying he got “totally raped” playing Halo last night, “the rape of Africa” is a phrase used in the explicit discussion of imperialist atrocities. a quick google will pull up everything from anti-colonialist art to books on King Leopold II’s crimes in the Congo; this information is literally at your fingertips, don’t start a witch hunt because you didn’t take the time to do a goddamn internet search.
WATCH THIS: MAN SHUTS DOWN ANTISEMITIC WHITE POWER PREACHER
One of my friends in the Boston area took this video and gave me permission to post it. She writes: “ I stood there for twenty minutes, easily. Hitler Youth kept trying to preach about “the evils of the Jews” and the big guy barely let him get a word in edgewise. At one point, the big guy yelled, “I will be here ALL DAY” and the crowd cheered.”
I promise this will be the best thing you see today.
Where’s a goddamn bullhorn when you need it?
wow that preacher is probably shitting his pants low key with some big ass biker that close to his face
Caption for those who need it– the guy in the suit is saying shit like “all races must serve us as put here by God” and a lot of racist/anti Semitic drivel.
Every time he opens his mouth to speak though, the biker yells “AHHHHHHH!!!” Until the man in the suit shuts up again. When the man in the suit takes a breath and opens his mouth, the biker doesn’t even let him get started and just screams “AHHHHH”…. This happens a few times.
The guy in the suit plows ahead but the biker screams and says “No no no no!!!”
I love biker dude
Make racists afraid again.
Um, sorry, but the guy in the suit deserves to speak his opinions. How’d you like to get screamed at everything time you spoke about what you are passionate about? I’m not saying I agree with his opinion, but that doesn’t make shutting him down like this right. Freedom of Speech. Just agree to disagree and walk away.
1) Freedom of Speech means you have the right to speak your mind without being punished or censored by the government. It does not mean other people have to listen to you, and it does not mean they can’t yell over you if you’re saying something disgusting and inflammatory. The Biker Dude has just as much right to do what he’s doing as the Neo-Nazi. Nobody’s right is being infringed upon here.
2) The guy is “passionate about” hating and inciting violence against Jews. I’m passionate about information literacy, candle-making, and giving snuggles to my pet rabbit. There’s a fucking difference, there.
3) “Agree to disagree” is something you say when two people can’t come to a consensus over whether or not The Empire Strikes Back is the best Star Wars movie. It’s not something you say when one person is Jewish and the other person believes Jews are a evil satanic cabal trying to enslave the white race who must be stopped at all costs. That’s not an “agree to disagree” topic. We don’t “agree to disagree” over the issue of whether or not Jews are people. We don’t “agree to disagree” over whether or not black people, immigrants, Muslims, LGBTQ folks, etc. are deserving of basic human rights. These things are not up for debate, and there is no middle-ground to be had with people who think otherwise.
“I can’t remember where I heard this, but someone once said that defending a position by citing free speech is sort of the ultimate concession; you’re saying that the most compelling thing you can say for your position is that it’s not literally illegal to express.” – Randall Munroe
people always feel like they need to stand up for the freedom of speech for neo-nazis but never for the same freedom for those protesting
the man yelling no over and over again? he is using his freedom of speech, except he’s supposed to just shut up so that some rando racist can preach without interruption? I don’t fucking think so
but then it was never really about freedom of speech, was it?
