Washed up 90s Hercules Blacksplaining what it means to be black
As a nerdy kid with longish hair and few male role models, I really, really looked up to this guy. Hercules, Xena, Kull, and then Andromeda.
He fell off my radar for a while but I was pleasantly entertained when I found him in the Mythica series. I'd always thought well of him.
Eventually I heard about God Is Not Dead and looked into the rest of his more right wing work... Its really heartbreaking when people you respected or even idolized as a kid turn out to be so... gross and just... weird.
Now he again pops up on my radar with stupid shit like this. So sad.
from the people who brought you transvestigating: introducing blackvestigating.
totally not weird, guys. they're very very normal.
Interesting how it takes literal brain damage to come up with a modern conservative's take.
what a weird thing to say.
I wonder what the last president to publicly say the nword was. Like, not Obama alone in the oval office giggling to himself, but a president casually dropping it while doing official president things like a speech or meeting.
Edit: so a quick Google told me Obama used it on a podcast once (while president), so I guess the boring answer is indeed Obama
Let's say she's hypothetically not black...
Nothing changes at all. She's still a better candidate. She's not a criminal and she could lie 100 times a day and still be well below Trumps lie quota
Trump is so unbelievably bad I don't think the right wing realises the extent they would need to go to, to discredit her to make Trump seem better.
Stupid small jabs like this change nothing. They could win if they dumped Trump. But they won't...
Trump identifies as a successful businessman which is a bigger lie. Successful criminal yeah
That being said, she's obviously black. Maybe he should stick to lies which aren't visually obvious (like claim she's stupid, which isn't true either)
i for one am thankful that kevin sorbo exists, to provide someone for lucy lawless to eviscerate
Honestly there are layers to this stupidity about Kamala's race. For anyone who thinks about it for even a moment, even if she's doing what they say she is, it reflects poorly only on them, not her.
Copy/pasting a prior response to save myself some typing:
EVEN IF their accusations were true, the conditions encouraging someone to hide their race weren’t created by Kamala Harris. They were created by racist bigots. And racist bigots these days tend to gravitate towards one party more than the other. The very clear defense would be "I had to hide my race so that bigots like you would judge me for my accomplishments, not my skin tone." (even though folks like that wouldn't consider Indian to be much of an upgrade)
Literally no one who isn't a bigot cares about this. They are outing themselves and nothing more.
He’s such a washed up loser. Xena was the better show.
This man is just a fountain of bad takes.
He looks and acts like the guy that would call black people the N-word with hard R.
I hope they continue on this crusade to prove she isn't black, this will convince no one new to vote for them. Take all the time in the world to obsess over it.
Secondly, it hinges on the racist notion that black voters will vote for her simply because she is black, which is not true.
Its foundation is wrong and its impact is negligible, please republicans, stay on this thread.
There is a 1:1 correlation between being deeply concerned about how black Kamala Harris is and thinking that calling someone a racist is just as bad as saying the N-word.
That's whitesplaining. (Because Kevin Sorbo is, in fact, white.)
That guy is a perpetual Not the Onion post
I honestly thought this was a bad joke or sarcasm. The fact that it's not is absolutely nuts.
What the fuck
I wonder how black he thinks he is when no one is around
He must be addressing his friends. Decent people aren't questioning her racial identity.
To me it seems like statements like this are just meant to provoke a reaction. There really are people who get their jollies from arguing, regardless what the argument is about or which side of it they’re taking.
They’re also known to guard bridges and demand tribute from travelers.
Also, I think people who love upsetting others suck.
Jerk-ules needs to go back under his rock.
Shit like this is weird to be fixated on.
Dammit, Peanut -- Lucy Lawless is gonna murder you with words. Again.
Okay there, lil' peanut
Mansplaining means explaining things while being a man, so blacksplaining must mean explaining things while being black. I just learned Kevin Sorbo is black.
I have a dollar here that says Sorbo tries his own run for president sooner or later, trying for the same Trump base.
TBH, I could see her calling her white Jewish husband the n-word (with a soft "a" at the end) after he's made one too many dad jokes.
A half-white/half-black friend of mine was bullied pretty bad. He handled it pretty well and made up the term "cragger" to describe his racial identity.
I'm sure Jercules doesn't understand that people who are secure in their skin won't feel the need to play identity politics.
Right, I almost forgot about this weirdo among all the other weirdos.
Woooow.
you guys have NO FUCKING IDEA, now many times people have asked me to do this during voice chat in a game because I lack a "Blaccent" when I talk.
