Let us not be afraid to ask the tough questions
 

Is Amish Paradise by Weird Al Yankovic racist?

No.

Except for that one line where he calls a bunch of Amish folks the n word it's really not.

but he's dressing up in their cultural uniform and making jokes about the 5 things people know about amish people. also the amish are not hostile towards technology but the video depicts them destroying electronics, vinyl records, and telephones. also he conflates amish and mennonites. not the same.

also he calls them primitive

not gonna lie though I LOLed at the part with the centerfold

I don't think the Amish are a race

no but they are a distinct cultural, religious, and arguably ethnic group.

They’re Swiss

Religions are made to be mocked.

this is pc runk amonk!

video proof is in the video.

A white guy mocking a minority of people because of stereotypes and misconceptions?

STOP. THE. PRESSES.

This thread is a joke right? I mean :rolleyes:

It's always serious business down here in gen pop.

I'm asking the questions here

also they are distinct cultural group and I'm pretty sure at this point you could identify an Amish person via their DNA because it's been an exclusive population for half a millennium. not sure what you are rolling your eyes at

actually Weird Al has a Jewish parody too but he's not Jewish :/

Taco Grande is pretty funny

It wasn't a particularly tough question though.

churn butter once or twice
livin' in an amish paradise

Must be awful to be white and overanalyze everything while hating your own skin color because of the ever-growing societal role of political correctness and white shaming.

But that's just a black perspective on your posts in general. :banging:

It's less awful than to not think about those things.

Lets not grade awfulness shall we.

That's fair!

nah it's not less stupid to float "white shaming" because "btw black"

petition to ban

Kindness Regime gotta put up a wall real quick before all these barbarians on the SP board breach our city

heh, did I hurt your white-guilt?

lmfao this guy just called me a cuck via rep ^
