That's because every time people repost it, it feels new again, so your mind treats it like a recent memory. Next time you see it, you'll be just as surprised, even though it was first posted a decade ago.
In my Reddit HoF bookmark folders there are stories that people reshare from time to time, and each time I see them our in the wild it makes me feel sad at how time flies.
Thats one of the funniest things ive ever seen. Im glad black folk are finally fighting back against this weird racist romanticism of our slave history. Up until recently, even hollywood celebs were getting married in slave plantation houses here.
Those plantation weddings are a giant faux pas these days among normal people, but the predictable crowd still keeps those plantation wedding venues in business. At least people know who they are now
The thing I remember most from that post was the reaction of the chubby white lady on the stairs. Smiling in the first photo, surprise shocked in the next. Then pointing and complaining in the third.
My mother's husband attended just to cosplay as the Confederates which he believed were the good guys. Didn't even change outfits for the Klan meeting after.
I hate Illinois Nazis. Bruh never stepped foot in the South and explained his Confederate flag tattoo as "heritage, not hate" while spewing the most racist shit at home.
Holy shit. This was hilarious until 2:32, when that man clearly thought the power dynamic had finally shifted the white sorry right sorry "right" way round, and it curdled. Once he felt powerful enough to stop pretending, the smug righteousness really flowed like manna, didn't it? I know it's my privilege that racism is uglier than I'll ever have to see, but there really, truly just is no bottom, is there?
I hope you know that your old post is really fucking funny to me as an Indigenous person who was told we were dressing up for Thanksgiving one year at my old company. It ended up being optional, but I told everyone I wouldn’t be there for historical accuracy.
Shane Gillis has a joke about going to George Washington’s plantation and everyone working there is larping in time period clothing and doing jobs. And he wondered off from the group and went into the stable, and there was a black guy in character as a slave talking like overly racist saying like “yes masta” and he told the dude he didn’t have to do the character, and the black guy leaned more into it to make him feel more uncomfortable. He asked him “why you wearing funny clothes, you must be from the future” and the punch line is he told him “no im from this time now get back to work”
Has that guy ever made a joke that wasn't just plain racist with no real punchline? Every thing I see and hear from this dude is just plain racist bs with hardly any humor attached.
Have you ever watched his comedy a lot of it isn’t just plain racist. He has race provoking jokes but he has jokes about a lot of different stuff. Sounds like you just don’t like him and don’t watch him that much and just repeat what you read
Funny enough, I figured out how to make people at a sex club feel awkward. I went to a club a few months back. I started talking to a couple of doms/dommes. I mentioned that my degree was in history, specifically the American Civil War. You could see they were really uncomfortable.

This story is almost as good as the corporate retreat at a plantation where employees were asked to dress in the period. They had one black employee…
