This one is not laughing.

I'm laughing.  There are far worse things like murders.  This joke isn't worth an ounce of outrage.  [/quote]

I am not because I have Black friends, coworkers, family members who are angry about this and I actually care about them. It is clear you don't. [/quote]

As a Black person, this does not anger me. It's par for the course, and not even actually funny. Anyone who finds it funny exposes themselves as not only racist, but having the sense of humor and intelligence of a 12 year old boy.

You want to get up in arms about racism? Let's talk about the prison industrial complex, over policing, wealth disparity, education disparities, the generational damages done by slavery and Jim Crow. I do not care about monkey jokes. [/quote]

Don’t you think that monkey jokes coming from POTUS feed into legitimizing all those other things?[/quote]

No I dont think this has anything to do with legitimizing racism. This is merely exposing it. And it frustrates me that this is the only kind of racism that white people get up in arms about, but you all quietly take issue with DEI programs and say crap like reverse racism. Monkey jokes harm my family a lot less than bias in hiring and employment, or the assumption of guilt when encountering law enforcement, but I get a lot less support when I point out the latter issues. I've heard monkey jokes my entire life, and I just find it lame. [/quote]

I'm pretty sure that the same white people who take issue with DEI and say crap like reverse racism are ones who are laughing at the video, but don't let that stop you from blurring the lines, Anonymous Poster.[/quote]

I'm White, I think the video, and any of the dehumanizing racist imagery, is horrifying. I also think that DEI as a policy is not effective because it doesn't fix the issue it purports to address. And I also believe that racism can be directed toward Whites. It's the actions that are racist. It doesn't matter the group. [/quote]

How is DEI ineffective? [/quote]

Look at the unnecessary backlash caused by stupid basic english language mistakes. It was a total disaster of a failed execution of a reasonable idea. [/quote]
