I agree but they can do whatever they want. It’s not like they’ll be held accountable.

This is how these pigs view all black people. Maybe don’t advertise your racism when police brutality has been such a big issue for decades? That would require critical thinking, though, and we know cops are never smart.

Looks like the new South park episode got it wrong. Woke isn’t dead. Still making mountains of molehills.

They’re making a pun off a blood drive based on the gang The Bloods - who are a predominantly African American street gang.
I don’t see the racism. “What up blud” is a common greeting and jumping people in happens in gangs, Blood or otherwise.

I’m not gonna nitpick because I agree largely. But ask this: should the police, out of any person or organization, be the one who make a joke like that. How about the police stay far away from turning their #1 victims into a punchline.

I agree with this viewpoint completely, I just don’t see how strictly speaking this is racist. If I dare ask, I get accused of being a racist. No one will explain what is exactly racist about this to me, they just say, “how isn’t it racist” or downvote me. This shit is frustrating. The top comment is calling it racist and I really just don’t understand it.

how is this not a racist caricature?
wanna take odds that no black dude was involved in the making of this?

So it’s South Park who’s racist, because they’re the ones who created that caricature.

No, we got that. Everyone understood this.
It’s still gross.
