Except, in the past, tan suits and coloured face paint weren't a sin; now we see it's only an issue for them based on who's doing it and whether they can rephrase and leverage it. Put Obama in mime makeup and a tan suit and some barely-used heads will explode. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Patches@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) It isn't weird. He was black which is what they 'latched' on to. From that perspective - everything he does, wear, eat, say is wrong. Just like that bitch Karen in HR, or some mean aunt, you probably hate.

They just don't give a fuck about truth or consistency. Consider: "what about her emails" vs. whatever it is they are saying about having boxes of classified documents and a copy machine in the bathroom. What they care about is creating, maintaining, and empowering white supremacist hierarchies. Truth and integrity are secondary to their hierarchy. permalink fedilink source parent
