Default Re: More blithe racism

We've got the exact same thing going here. After the commercial channel RTL (Radio Tv LUXEMBOURG, foreign agitators!) decided blackface was no longer okay and Zwarte Piet should henceforward be a white guy with some black soot on his face and clothes from climbing through chimneys (which the 'traditionalists' claimed was why they were black in the first place), this dudebro sports commentator said a black politician who had been in favor of changing it was 'as proud as a monkey' (where the saying is as proud as a peacock). It was apparently not racist at.all. And when a well-know radio dj (who had appeared in 'stop racism' videos) in response to her anger at that remark had jungle noises on in his program, of course that was just a funneh joke, haha. How could I be racist?
