I think articles like this are a good thing. When the "normal" people are trying to point how just how stupid some of these movements are (and they are) articles like this become incredible ammunition.

Wait until he finds out that baseball is just a *******ized version of cricket.

Article is just another excuse to condemn the "colonizers" out there.

Silly articles like these are detrimental to whatever cause is being fought. The reason I can't embrace liberalism/the Democratic Party is the insistence of many among those ranks to overplay their hands and take reasonable concerns/complaints to unreasonable lengths.

I like Banana Pudding. Can anyone tell me if Banana Pudding is racist yet?

Didn't read. Must be something about the Imperial brand sugar used to make the pie, right?

It is if you try, just like everything else.

Hard to tell where/when this turns into satire.

That was just him railing against capitalism and international agricultural trade/business.

The idea being that if you throw in some accusations of "muh racism" and point out that working conditions in food/agriculture were worse 100 years ago than today...people will forget that modern industry has created the most unusual situation in human history...modern people are actually dying from obesity and over eating.

That would have been almost unthinkable for the vast majority of humans during the past 50,000 years.

Yet because of modern trade and capital investment in agriculture we are actually able to produce enough food that even the poorest of people can eat themselves to death.

Its absolutely wild that liberals think dreck like Raj produces is somehow "insightful" and "thought provoking"
