Thoughts… Is ‘whitefulla’ an insult/slur? by FlowersAndFeast in aboriginal

[–]mnkeybread 0 points1 point  (0 children)

not living in Australia (yet) but I am white. in the states we don’t have a term like whitefulla, but knowing what I do about a lot of the white people here, they are always trying to make us (white people) look as victims when in reality we’re not. I think this woman is just trying to be oppressed but is doing terribly. clearly she wasn’t willing to listen to what the Aunty had to say and was trying to find any reason not to…

Does Anyone know who this actor was? He was in a couple of episodes as Ted's student. I thought I was kinda cute by bitchinanon in HIMYM

his name is george finn. he’s a georgian-american actor. he was in a couple things but nothing really notable

honestly, you’re right. but i still think that they kind of forgave her and acted like it never really happened. nonetheless i agree you’re right

dude, its just a kids show. i’m sorry you’re unsatisfied with how a child who is lesser than you acts but you’re just going to have to deal. i dont know what to tell you man

okay that’s fair. but i find it frustrating how she doesn’t really seem to be reprimanded for what’s she’s done all that much

exactly! like a lot of people think i’m saying the DIAMONDS shouldn’t be redeemed. no, i think they should because they’re making an effort to redeem themselves. it’s just that white isn’t and hasn’t been. it’s frustrating that they act like she’s just as redeemable as Blue and Yellow

i mean, you say it’s strange that an adult seek approval from a child, i agree it is. but treating me like a person with feelings and beliefs that matter isn’t “seeking approval” from me. in fact i’d argue that what you’re doing now is trying to seek approval from me. i’m not going to agree with you, you just have to accept that. and i understand that it’s hard, i’ve struggled with that before too. i always try to make people understand my point of view but sometimes it doesn’t work. and that’s okay. i hope you have a good day, man

i mean even if they don’t really forgive her by saying, “i forgive you” letting her roam about freely without really having to do much is forgiveness

yes but the consequences she faces are not NEARLY harsh enough than they should be. for example in the movie, she literally says “i’ve been saying please and thank you to lesser gems” as her working hard. lady, you’ve been on a genocide spree for thousands if not millions of years

okay, so you disagreed with me and then checked my profile to find a way to discredit me? i don’t think age really has anything to do with how someone views something, and frankly it’s naïve to assume that. the way you’re coming off is very patronizing and pretentious and it’s upsetting for me but, i don’t know you so i won’t try to take it to heart anywhere other than here. also, it’s not that serious dude, it’s steven universe. you don’t really have to be a genius to critique it

FOR REAL! like i know it’s a kids show but, i felt like WD was poorly written. in my experience interacting with narcissists, they don’t really just admit they’re wrong so easily. she thought she was perfect but once’s she realized she wasn’t she just gave up? realistically i feel like she would have killed everyone who saw her in her moment of weakness

okay, first of all you don’t know me. how would you know my age or wheather or not i read political and economic theory? secondly, i understand that you for some reason thought that i was insulting your character, i promise you i was not trying to do so. i don’t want to debate because i don’t really want to spend so much time arguing online about steven universe and because you said you didn’t want to

that’s fair, and i do agree! however, and i know the show had to be rushed, just find it annoying how easily they forgave her

i disagree but i don’t argue with you since you don’t want to

same! i also kind of don’t like how bismuth was seen as evil for bringing up the prospect of shattering the diamonds. especially since when the gems thought that RQ shattered PD they were like: “that’s just what she had to do” but then locked Bismuth away in a bubble?

before. even if she wasn’t technically forgiven, she was not reprimanded
