The meme: "The way things are going, very soon..."
It's still very hyperbolic, but no one is claiming it's illegal to be white; neither OP or the meme.
Has it gotten there yet? It was "very soon" from a meme that was several years old. So it must be true by now, right?
Definitely not slop, right?
Reading comprehension, dude!
OP: " Anyone else miss the days when you could just laugh this off as edgy /pol/ meming?"
He's saying you can't just laugh this off as memeing as easily anymore. He's not saying it's already happened. He's saying it's much less easily dismissed.
And he's correct. This used to be more absurd but, especially with social media use as universal as it is now, we're seeing many more instances where the attitude of various parties (and yes, that includes prosecutors, so in some instances it is an unspoken crime to be white, or at least an exacerbating fact) is that it's not okay to be white.
In fact, "It's Okay to Be White" is a controversial statement.
You know all this, too.
Understanding hyperbole as a literary device has to be an IQ signifier, along with conditional hypotheticals and significance of per capita.
If it's not easily dismissed, then it should be really obvious that we are on track to make white people illegal. Clearly, that isn't a psychotic hyperbole anymore. Don't say it's just "it's not okay to be white is a controversial statement", because that was a scandal from 4chan as well, from the very era of this meme. That's very old culture war stuff at this point. Clearly we are much further along the path laid out by the meme. And one thing we can absolutely say is that we are absolutely NOT literally witnessing at this very moment an obvious backlash to the moral authority of Black Supremacism.
You know this too.
You might as well be saying, "I know those local British elections are over and Labour have as many local council seats as the Green Party, but if we keep going the way things were going in 2023, Labour will have full political dominance over the country." You are arguing against the opposite of reality, presented in front of you, that you are explicitly participating in.
Don't tell me what to say.
Okay, they hated whites back then too, got me.
More whites getting more fed up with the very anti-white system is not proof there isn't an anti-white system. And being angry doesn't mean the whites are back in charge. All the same structures are still in place, and things are (often, not all the time) run by people who hate whites.
It just came up in another thread, but George Floyd/Derek Chauvin versus Justine Damond/Mohamed Noor is an excellent example. It's anecdotal, of course, as it's just two individual incidents.
But a black police officer shot and killed an unarmed white woman, had his initial murder conviction dismissed, and was released with time served and supervised release...in under three years.
A white police officer restrained a belligerent and very likely high black man, with a sanctioned and trained pin, and is looking at decades in prison.
The main difference these is race, and treatment and reaction surrounding the races.
Stop telling me what I'm saying and doing. You can come up with whatever ridiculous analogies you want, but it's meaningless, and not what I'm saying. It's what you've decided my argument is.
Derived from “goy slop”. This is one of your biggest tells ;)
I was referring to the concept of "slop" in the literal fashion after the brew-ha-ha last year regarding foods that were slop and foods that were orderly meals.
