So I came into this thread with a vague antipathy towards Elon ( which I assume was engendered by the whole is stupid rich and does nothing to actually help vibe he has going on) and in reading this I see I was giving him too much credit.

DONT THREAD ON ME posted:like, i'm not really in a position to forgive them for blackface. i've read up on it and it's not easy to dismiss. Also they're appropriating a lot. I have no idea what south Africa's history with black face is so I won't comment, but I'm curious what you see as appropriation. ppl online misuse that word to the point of meaninglessness

Such celebrations eventually became consolidated into an annual, year-end event called the "Coon Carnival" but now known as the Cape Town Minstrel Carnival or the Kaapse Klopse

the talent deficit posted:they literally steal most of their material from lesser known black south african artists rap is a genre where artists endlessly sample from and riff on each other. it's like blues that way. cardi b has gained critical acclaim for a flow and beat taken from Kodak black and two tracks where the samples are just shy of taking another song wholesale. have they been accused of literally taking songs from other artists wholesale, or are some Twitter types just going like "this song sounds similar to that song and we all know songs are made in a vacuum "

it's very interesting to look at and compare bogans, rednecks, and boers/boeres, all of whom are lower class whites living in former british colonies. it's especially interesting to look at how close all of their political opinions are considering each group of idiots are on the other side of the world from each other

i keep thinking this is an actual zelda thread in my bookmarks, then realize it's not, but it's too much work to find a real zelda thread in games or whatever to ask if the botw dlc is worth getting, so i'll just ask here: is the botw dlc worth getting?

Personally, I don't think they're overt racists, that's not the message I get from their music. I just think they're just white people who think it's okay to act the way they do because they're "post-race," which makes them really ignorant, but not necessarily bad people.
