Jul 11, 2017i feel the same way about any time a race/ethnicity/group singles themselves out. my mentality is that we're all just people, so let's just be "people" rather than "g--" or "black" or whatever pride is taking place at the time... it's kinda backwards to single yourself out, with the goal of achieving equalism and have others look at you as not a specific group of individuals.

The Dutch are slowly recognizing that their blackface tradition of Zwarte Piet is racist and weird

when i say this exact same thing, in my own words, i get called a nazi that wants to say kikes are bad online or some s---. when in reality i just say kikes are bad online, idgaf. I don't hold like prejudice against other races, I will just say s--- like "oh you're from germany? how many times have refugees r---d you?" like it doesn't matter, any part of the world can get it, then i'm a sarcastic c---- about Australia and even make fun of myself/my race. like "ur a raycess!!" no i just show the same lack of respect to every race because i just can't give a f--- about where someone is from.

tbf we live in an extremely sexualised heterosexual world doe people i think parades are more about a minority coming together to celebrate a culture they've cultivated that they're proud of that is usually something they feel they have to supress or something. i agree w/ what you gyus are saying for the most part though it must b mad frustrating to be a normal a--- conservative g-- dude that doesnt wanna be stigmatisedMudkip, Ordinary Joel, DKC and 2 others like this. -

The reason I make this thread is that I talked with someone (my nephew) a few days ago who is married to a man for years.
He said: " I'm married to a guy. But other than that, I live a normal life. No weird stuff, just a regular job, people never judge me for it.
g-- parades just make people look at g-- people different. f---ing idiots walking around in pink underwear acting like complete morons only make people think 'yes, g-- people are totally different and not normal compared to us'. It only makes the image people have us worse. To an extent"
Honestly, I kinda get what he means. I'm not saying people shouldn't try to get attention for discrimination against them, but I get that parades do put them in a box instead of letting them blend in.
Thoughts? Tagging u for obvious reasons @Cyreides

This is a year-round discussion in Holland as of like 4-5 years ago
Old people want to keep that tradition
Most of the younger generation wants it gone.
Black Pete = a helper that got dirty by going through a chimney. Apparently going through a chimney also gives you short & curled hair, red lips, big hoop earrings. Your clothes stay clean tho.Last edited: Jul 12, 2017Ordinary Joel, Enigma, DKC and 1 other person like this. -
