Title: Facebook & Instagram Ban Zwarte Pete

First they came for the statues, and I said nothing because I am not a statue.

Then they came for the black face, and I said nothing because I am not the Prime Minister of Canada.

Will this madness ever end? :stahp

I've never worn black face. It drove the teachers nuts that I refused to be painted black but I was way ahead of the curve :mynicca

I will wait for this thing to turn around in 10 years, when we only have White Pete and the complaints about not being represented start.

A classic case of being one of the good ones

One of the worst phrases

People don't even understand why it's upsetting
Title: Re: Facebook & Instagram Ban Zwarte Pete
Post by: EchoRin on August 12, 2020, 04:07:23 AM: Am I misunderstanding the situation? The person comes from a different ethnic background than the majority, has a more conservative look at immigration, happens to have an immigrant wife anyways.

Never really heard anyone get upset at the phrase. But maybe it's a disconnect between English and Dutch language in how it's perceived?

I mean I would apply the same phrase to Tomio Okamura in the Czech Republic. My aunt loves him and yet...
Title: Re: Facebook & Instagram Ban Zwarte Pete
Post by: Cerveza mas fina on August 12, 2020, 04:10:55 AM: I mean it upsets me when people talk to me and use this rethoric

"We're not talking about you, you speak the language, got a job etc. You are one of the good ones. It's the other foreigners that should leave they are bad"

Really makes me uncomfortable.

Like any second they can strip me of being "the good one" and if somehow speaking the language makes me a better person then someone else.

LMAO, yeah fuck this shit, I mentioned this on discord, but how this even got seen by anyone is one of the dancers posted the picture and had no issue whatsoever with it.....

I knew though that this would cause issues though. Also funny that an English speaking KPOP Stan is the one to take offence to it is pretty ironic hah.
