The sign however could say no non-celtics allowed and not be racist!

T_T

Oh please. That's still racist by your logic, just worded differently.

No, because I said Lin's casting for non-whites wasn't racist,,,,

Making room for less recognized POC?

Was that a joke?

Yes. I’m sorry.

No need to apologize. It showed a humorously sharp tongue.

_{ah lawd…everytime I come back here smh}

Now let’s do another situation. I want to be a movie director. Who knows if that will ever come to be but here it is. I am making a movie dramatization of the founding of Egypt. Realizing that Chinese people almost never would get to star in such a picture, I send out a casting call making clear that only Chinese people and related cultures may apply for this movie. What do you make of this?

Weird and a bit of cultural appropriation. But uh, Egyptian movies in the past were overwhelmingly white, so it'd be nice to see actual Egyptians playing in the movies. However, if you as the director are trying to make some sort of statement and you want to cast Chinese people,,, okay then.

I don't think straight pride should be a thing. What do you think?

I don't think straight pride should be a thing. What do you think?

Tbh, it really doesn't matter. If you're proud of being gay, you're welcome to do so, if you're proud of being straight, same thing goes for that.

I don't think straight pride should be a thing. What do you think?

I don't really think straight pride is a thing. Gay pride was created because gay people were told not to be proud of themselves. There was struggle, and then out of that there was pride. Straight pride is like white history month… largely unnecessary.

True, true.

But there's a lot of straight people complaining that they don't get a month or whatever. I'm not even joking. I wouldn't have asked if it wasn't a thing. It's seriously disturbing.

I think it’s down to sarcasm because they are tired of the “Look at me I’m gay!” culture thing that’s going on.

I hope it's sarcasm, otherwise it's just sad.

I went to my first pride parade this year,,, gee, I wonder if straight pride parade has people yelling "you're going to hell!!" into megaphones.

Not sarcasm. There's an account on ig who makes t-shirts, tries organising events and things

Fun fact: Heterosexuality was once considered a mental disease in the big American book of medicine or whatever it was.

Another great argument: homosexuality appears in a lot of species, but homophobia only in one.
Who's unnatural now?

It's not all sarcasm, there's a lot of people that are saying it 100% unironically.

That's suprising. Unless you mean homosexuality?

^^^^^Let’s not argue about that at the moment.
