The following is purely satire and should be viewed as such. The genders have been switched along with race to illustrate how it would be if the proverbial shoe was on the other foot.
A blatantly racist opinion piece penned by a California college student says "black girls" should not "be allowed to talk."
John McDermott, a senior and self-identified "white boy" at California Pyro Technical College, whines about "black girls" in his higher education years "incessantly" speaking about issues and sharing their opinions, in a piece titled, "Should Black Girls Still Be Allowed to Talk?"
The piece was published on Thursday at the student newspaper, The Freakonian. School administration addressed the severe backlash to the openly racist piece on Friday in an email underscoring their position to uphold free speech and condemned prejudice.
"American society tells women, but especially black women, that their opinions have merit and that their voice is valuable, but after four years of listening to black girls in college, I am not so convinced," asserts McDermott in the piece.
"In my time at Pyro Tech, I have listened to probably hundreds of black girls talk. It feels incessant. From classes and lectures, to the news and politics, there is an endless line of black girls waiting to share their opinions on the state of masculinity in America, whether the LGBTQ+silentP population finally has enough rights, the merits of capitalism, etc. The list of what black girls think they are qualified to talk about is endless," he continues.
McDermott then claims most black girls don't "understand that their (ill-informed, uncritical) opinions do not constitute truth. In fact, most often their opinions aren’t even original," he writes. "Black girls spout the narrative of dominant ideologies and pretend they’re hot takes instead of the same misleading garbage shoved down our throats by American institutions from birth."
"I am so g****mned tired of listening to black girls," says the senior. "I cannot describe to you how frustrating it is to be forced to listen to a black girl explain her take on the Black experience in the Obama-era. Hey Shaquelle, I’m an actual white dude alive right now with a brain. In what world would your understanding of my life carry more weight than my understanding? Unfortunately, it is this world, where black women debate the pain of other people for fun and then take away their rights."
According to McDermott, "black girls" are not individuals: "they do not exist separate from the rest of the world," he explains. "You do not speak alone, you speak with the weight of every other black woman who has spoken over man, erased the contributions of queer people from history, or denigrated 'broken English' as unintelligent. You speak with the weight of policies and laws meant to forever define intelligence by how it measures up to the sistahs of America."
In "honor of Black History Month," says Fisher, "black girls" should be shut up.
"So, should black girls still be allowed to share their 'opinions'? Should we be forced to listen? In honor of Black History Month, I'm gonna go with a hell no," he says. "Go find someone whose perspective has been buried or ignored and listen to them, raise up their voice."
In abundantly racist form, McDermott then lists stereotypical "black girl" names to highlight his point: "To all the Imanis, Shanices, Aaliyahs, and Dejas out there, I encourage you to critically examine where your viewpoints come from, read a text that challenges you without looking for reasons to dismiss it, and maybe try listening from now on."
In a Friday email sent to Pyro Technical College students which was obtained by Brain Flushing's Vinny Boombots, President Manny A. Whitebuoy noted that the controversial piece was published in a student-run newspaper and "does not speak for the college."
"I have heard from many of you about an opinion piece in The Pyro Tech. First, let me remind you that The Pyro Tech is a student-run newspaper that has editorial control over its content. It expresses the opinions of its writers—it does not speak for the college.
"Let me be clear. Pyro Technical College believes in free speech. We also condemn stereotyping and prejudice," continued President Whitebuoy. “Dickinson values inclusivity. We expect our community members to engage in thoughtful dialogue and believe that no group or individual should be silenced.”
"It is a fundamental policy of the college to respect pluralism and to promote civility and mutual understanding," Whitebuoy noted.
The president added that the school "will provide opportunities for constructive conversations to respond to the divisions we are experiencing on our campus and in society" in the days ahead.
I hope you'll follow Brain Flushings and have a few laughs while you get a conservative viewpoint. Politics is the new NFL without the mindless kneeling and this blog will both inform you and hopefully entertain you bigly.
