New York Post Monkey Stimulus Cartoon Inspires Racism Protesting
Racism protests against the New York Post? Nah. New York Post isn’t promoting racism. When I saw this cartoon, the first thought I had wasn’t anything to do with black people.
It was that New York Post was joking that the stimulus bill was written by monkeys and comparing it to current events.
But how could I possibly not jump to the conclusion that this unfunny joke has anything to do with the fact that Obama is half African? Simple. I AM NOT A RACIST. This cartoon has nothing to do with Obama. Nor do I ever think in terms of racial division, until some idiot decides its important and makes a big-ass deal about it.
Monkeys are funny. They are like strong, agile little people. Bonobo Chimps are something like 98.9% identical to us. They have fingers and feet and make funny faces. There are numerous phrases about monkies that makes this a joke that any 6 grader can appreciate:
- Monkeying Around
- 1,000 Monkeys Given Typewriters and Infinite Time will Eventually write the complete works of William Shakespeare
- This place is run by monkies
- So easy a monkey could do it
To Al Sharpton, Spike Lee, and everyone else who thinks this was racist: Racism does NOT end by empowering groups of people based on their skin color. Racism ends when you succeed to make race irrelevant to society. Make apathy your friend. You are an old, dying breed, fighting for relevance where little or none is needed. The younger generation doesn’t give a shit about a “white agenda” or a “black agenda” and if we do, it’s because you’ve taught it to us.
We want to live free of this silly, irrelevant immaturity. Stop being selfish publicity whores and support the greater good. Stop ostriching or supporting those you feel important enough…. stop reading between the lines only to stir controversey. Of course racism still exists. It exists in people like you who grab ahold of any opportunity to grandstand your own ego.
Think about it this way: we elected a half African President. We’re well on our way and you’re just pissed because you’re a dinosaur who is becoming less important. Go away.
The ONLY apology that the New York Post should even be responsible for issuing is one that says they’re sorry for offense and it was not their intention. And they did. So, case closed.
