If victim card does not work, continually claim oppression and try to silence those who something with your something by reporting them to get shut down. Something.

I guess what I was asking what are the somethings?

Last bit says (i.e. censorship). Which is kindof a giveaway that whoever made the image didn’t know/care what censorship really is, and along with the “can’t be used by white men, Christians, etc” shows they’re pretty unaware of how much the victim card gets played by those groups. So… nice graphic at first, icky right-wing propaganda upon further examination.

You don’t think they included that as a satirical jab at those people?

yeah, i took it as a satirical jab.

btw, can anyone tell me what the fine print under the “(your name)” says? I can’t seem to read it.

DOES NOT APPLY TO: Whites, Cis-Gendered, Heterosexuals, or Christians.

Makes your “I wasn’t talking about you Fo” clapping post reference look pretty stupid now doesn’t it?

Seems Ender was off his game too because it’s kind of inflammatory.

😉

Maybe intended as satire, but too close to the way people really see things. There are plenty of people who think getting called racist is exactly the same thing as censorship, or that white people and Christians never ever play the victim card. Satire usually takes the position and tweaks it humorously. This is straight-up duplication–putting it on an actual card is the only funny tweak, so it doesn’t actually parody the belief at all.

There are also plenty of people who play the race card to avoid legit criticism and plenty more who assume something is racist until proven innocent rather than innocent until proven guilty.

That’s not the part he was asking about.

Whether or not pretending he wasn’t clapping in reference to this being directed at you is another thing though and I’m not getting into it.

Seems like some senators are more interested in grilling Sally Yates over her opposition to Trumpy’s travel ban order than the stuff they’re supposed to be talking about today. A–holes.

that is Fraking pathetic.

That is the small print on the bottom right of the card, you said you couldn’t read the small print, I typed it out so you could.

The one where her views on the Muslim Ban were quickly and repeatedly vindicated by federal court opinions? That one?

Weird because it was never a “muslim” ban and most of the list was sorted by the Obama administration.

that discussion is like 100 pages in the past… lets not go back to trying to say that this was obama’s list therefore you must not question it. that has been refuted so many times.

That’s not the print he said he couldn’t read. He said he couldn’t read the bottom in the middle.

I can’t either though.

I’m 99% sure _ender’s posting of the Victim Card image had nothing to do with the small print.

I’m 99% sure I agree.

He was probably more interested in taking another “victim” shot which he is becoming known for instead of actually reading it first.

That was not my point so I’m not sure why you bring it up. This list was already in use before Trump got there. The only people that called it a “muslim” ban were those that didn’t like that he was strengthening the process related to immigration to America.

Which if I’ve done my math correctly, means you are roughly 98% sure that _ender didn’t post the Victim Card image for the small print.

Lmao, no, the text that he was talking about is genuinely unintelligible due to the low resolution.

But the fact that you think that proves that he would have been right.

Correct. I never put anything past anybody.

This is not the first time him or you have said such things so there is no proof needed for that.

I believe, had he taken the time (which maybe he didn’t have when he posted it) to read the small print on the bottom right, he would not have posted that specific one.

Pretty simple observation, yes?

No-one here said he did, not even me, and it’s fairly obvious had he read it he wouldn’t have.

Unless he also agrees about those groups often playing the card and was subscribing to the theory that it was put there as sarcasm?

But nonetheless, I curious what it says.
