Cancel Culture and Progressive Iconoclasm: The #Blackout Edition w/ extra "Guidance"

Show this to the online people who support Dems and have Teddy Roosevelt in their pfp.

And say what exactly?

Looks like it's finally happening. That Theodore Roosevelt statue in front of the American Museum of Natural History in New York City will be removed. Apparently having TR on a horse being flanked by Natives in grossly stereotypical manners of dress is too triggering to bear after all of these decades. So the whole statue has gotta go!

The statue was erected in 1939.

Hopefully the statues will be moved out of the city; because even an inanimate statue deserves to escape from the hellhole that is New York city.

Seems to me my state was looking to get that statue anyway, as we've kind of adopted him as a local celebrity of sorts.

The local bedrock couldn't support the combined weight of her and the statues, something had to go.

Digimon is a weirder version of Pokemon. The creatures are digital things that can speak to you, I've seen it described as being what Babylon 5 was to Star Trek.

 

[Captain X]

I know what Pokemon is, but I guess I wasn't getting that this was Pokemon from what you posted.

It's voice actors doing stuff at a convention where they read lines live.

I was torn between posting this here or in the Alphabet Soup thread, but...

This old guy is a fucking legend.
"Transphobe! Transphobe! Cancel him! Doxx him! REEEEEEeeeee!"

Curry is also racist.

At least according to a California Instagram food vlogger named Chaheti Bansal of CALIFORNIA.

A viral April Instagram post from Chaheti Bansal on her Rooted in Spice page sparked a debate over the word’s usage to describe dishes of different tastes from various regions of South Asia and has been widely recirculated in recent media reports.

“I’m not even gonna bother with the recipe in this voiceover cause I have more important things to discuss like canceling the word ‘curry,’ ” she says in the post, accompanying a video of her cooking.

“OK, not in all cultures – but specifically in Indian cuisine cause I don’t understand what that word means,” she adds.

“Like there’s a saying that the food in India changes every 100 kilometers and yet we’re still using this umbrella term popularized by white people who couldn’t be bothered to learn the actual names of our dishes – but we can still unlearn.”
