“It’s so unfair that my own words can be written down for posterity!”
Tell me she doesn’t know that just because you’ve edited a Wikipedia page, that the previous version still exists, and is likely to draw attention and discussion because of your edits.
And is super easy to revert to the prior version too. It’s basically two clicks to make it happen. And then have an admin protect the page to only allow established editors so randos can’t do this with just an IP address again.
Just in case she happened to read my comment, I didn’t want to use the word “revert” in order to avoid confusion.
I love too that she mentioned, “REAL OPINIONS” as if those are more valid than the exact words she said.
It said “Actual Opinion” not “Real Opinions”.
I’m pretty sure opinion doesn’t mean what you think it does. When a judge writes up an opinion it’s a bit stronger than me saying what I do or don’t like or how I feel about something. Same as the difference between scientific theory and the other definition.
So cool that the course of this country is in part shaped by dumb cunts like her and Clarence Uncle Thomas over there.

That’s usually the first reaction to discovering a new fetish.
Double fistings? And so it goes.
It’s an inaccurate epithet anyhow. Uncle Tom was overly nice to whites so as not to draw their wrath.
In the end, the whites beat Uncle Tom to death when he refused to give the whereabouts of two runaway slaves.
I don’t know what epithet you’d call someone who turned in the two slaves and lived to work the big house another day, but that’s what you should call Clarence.
I used to call Clarence an Uncle Tom, but then I read the book.
It’s close enough, catchy and demeaning enough to him and his position that I am OK with calling him that just like I’m OK with calling Frankenstein’s monster Frankenstein. We all know the origins of the “pull yourself by your bootstraps” and just about everybody still uses it in an earnest way. It’s fine.
Fair points on all counts.
As someone who also read the book and was shocked that Tom wasn’t the minstrel show Tom that really earned the name: this weird effort to take back his name is self defeating and artificial.
It says quite a lot that people also try to say “Maybe we should call them Uncle Ruckuses instead!”
Mainly, it says they’re not clued in enough to realize the show/comic had two Uncle Toms. One had Uncle in his name, the other Tom.
MacGruder wasn’t being very subtle, and yet everyone seems to have missed it anyways.
Hell, if nothing else this whole weird idea is erasure of the minstrel shows. If you want to raise some actual awareness then feel free to separate Book Tom from Minstrel Tom, because we need to remember both.
We’re just using racial slurs now? Come on, that’s over the line.
I don’t think that’s a racial slur my guy, a dictionary indicates it’s slang for female genitalia.
