If a conservative had LOL ITS SATIRE THO statements drugged up of a similar nature but about white people, there would be ZERO protection for them. They would have their fucking life destroyed

You know it, I know it, everyone knows it
The authors were not being satirical, I assure you. That's what the book was about!

The Bell Curve was a popular novel at the time, zoomer. Her story checks out if you know it's content.
Republicans don't care about facts, they think only their feelings matter (and they have strong ones about black women).

Let’s do a little experiment, write a satire article about the superiority of white people

Then release it to the public with your personal info. Let’s see how well you can defend your position that it’s satire. Be sure to include your job (lol kidding I know you lack one) and house address on there

Yeah I had no idea who Charles Murray is. If this chick had her work come out the exact same year as his book, then it could be in response to that. That’s fine

Other points about Biden’s court packing commission still hold

Why anyone would want to read an entire book of fake satirical bigoted statements about genetic superiority is beyond me. Seems like a waste of effort. Doesn’t even seem well-received by liberals

It was an op-ed in the Harvard student newspaper, pay more attention to your talking points on Tucker next time.

So wait, Murray’s book WASN’T satire? It sounds like The Bell Curve actually tried to claim that some races are smarter than others, in a serious way

So lemme get this straight,

A guy writes a book saying white people are smarter than black

And then in the same year, this chick writes an article for a college newspaper claiming something similar but about black people. And one is considered satire, but the other isn’t

How do we know she didn’t mean those statements the same way Murray did again? Because I thought Murray’s book was also satire, but apparently no, he was serious

Then when I asked if it were even possible for a white person to post satirical statements about white superiority and get away with it, you linked the book. But that’s not an example of getting away with satire about white superiority. So I’m still correct, that it is impossible to make statements of white superiority, even when joking, and get away with it. Because The Bell Curve is NOT satire

But it IS possible to make statements of black superiority when joking, and get away with it. If that’s even what she meant. Because it could still very well be a person who thinks whites are superior arguing with a person who thinks blacks are superior, and the one who thinks blacks are superior now wants to do some damage control
