I can’t help thinking that Dodson’s new-found popularity is not about shared frustration over crime or violence against women. On threads around the ‘net, Dodson is branded “hilarious.” But what is so funny about Antoine Dodson? Part of the Dodson meme is, I fear, about laughing at mannerisms that the mainstream associates with blackness, gayness and poverty. There is nothing amusing about a young woman assaulted in her home. And so, I worry that people are laughing at Antoine: his flamboyance and perceived gayness; his use of black colloquialisms, like “run tell dat,” his grammar and accent.

In her book Reality Bites Back, Jennifer Pozner writes about how reality TV producers seek out characters that provide drama, including those that reinforce stereotypes about race and gender. In a rapidly shifting media landscape, has this thinking made it into the newsroom, effecting the way reality reality is presented?
Presenting caricatures or stereotypes of race (and gender) in this fashion is a form of racism. It reinforces racism.Quote:
Call me solemn, but I simply couldn’t muster up enough smugness to laugh at a poor, black, widely assumed to be gay man being interviewed outside of a housing project; a man who was filled with genuine anger over the fact his sister was attacked in her own home, but who ends up turned into an object of mockery because of his “stereotypical” mannerisms by pretty much every group under the sun if for different reasons.
The "he said it" argument just doesn't float.
The fact that what he said was about an attempted rape makes the meme even less funny.
Define racism however you want; it's still funny and well within the RULZ, so not much you can do besides whine and moan with your liberal and "compassionate" friends.Quote:

I saw Tom post a picture that was making a joke about a kid friendly character wanting to dispose of a corpse..... well shit guys, that should be in the rubbish bin :roflol::roflol::roflol:
And to keep this thread on topic (as everyone should, since it is for pictures) a picture:

You continue to paint a bleak picture of yourself, DC. Joking about "beating my girlfriend" is simply not funny (especially because the punchline plays off the idea of domestic violence).
Take it to the basement......
Prude out.
