Dictionary.com explains that ‘Don’t Tread on Me’ seems ‘racist and offensive’ because conservatives and libertarians use it

 

In case you weren’t aware, Dictionary.com has a separate search page for “All the Words,” which you can use to find “the real meanings of slang, emoji, and other weird ‘words.'” One of those weird expressions you can learn more about is “Don’t Tread on Me”:

There’s no better introduction to this post than this tweet:

 

 

Now we’ve heard all sorts of panic at U.S. universities about nooses being hung to frighten and intimidate minorities, and usually, these turn out to be hoaxes or just cases of mistaken identity. One was a shoelace“packaged in a way that someone could perceive them to look similar to a noose.” Another was a lightning cable that broke loose after a tree limb fell on it. The “nooses” found at the University of Delaware after Katie Pavlich’s speech weren’t nooses at all, but actually string and wire hangars for paper lanterns hung from the trees during an earlier event.

 

But in this latest case, a 19-year-old allegedly found a piece of rope in a residence hall elevator, tied it into a noose, and was arrested and released on $5,000 bond.

 

 

NBC News :

A 19-year-old student at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign has been charged with a felony hate crime after a noose was found hanging in a residence hall elevator Sunday.

Andrew Smith was arrested at about 9:30 p.m. Monday after he was questioned by authorities at his residence hall on College Court in Urbana, the university police said in a statement.

He was charged with committing a hate crime, which is a felony, and a misdemeanor count of disorderly conduct.

During an arraignment Tuesday afternoon, Champaign County Assistant State’s Attorney Kristin Alferink said Smith found some rope in an elevator in Allen Hall over the weekend and tied it into a noose.

About 1 a.m. Sunday, staff at Allen Hall found the noose hanging inside an elevator in a public area of the building. A female friend who was with Smith in the elevator Sunday reported him to authorities, Alferink said.

Smith pleaded not guilty Tuesday and was released on a $5,000 bond. He requested a trial by jury.

That was a felony hate crime?

I'll take a giant leap - Looking at his picture, the felony arraignment probably prevented his suicide attempt.

This Week from the Ministry of Disinformation

by Taylor Day

Original Article

 

The entertainment sections of the liberal news are breathing into paper bags this week after the premier of famed comedian Dave Chappelle's newest Netflix special. Mr. Chappelle hit on everything in his stand-up routine, aptly named Sticks and Stones, from mass shootings and child molestation to the Jussie Smollett hoax and the LGBT community's thin skin.

 

Rotten Tomatoes, the site that calls its tools "the world's most trusted recommendation resources for quality entertainment," initially rated Chappelle's stand-up with its first-ever zero score, though it has since raised it to 17% and then finally to 30%. This was only after the audience continued to recommend it.

And next week, just so they can have it all ways:

White people who use sunscreen are racist, for not wanting their skin to get darker.
