Humor Section!

[InHomeComputerHelp.com]

Hey guys, not to be harshin' at all, but the corona virus "jokes" should not be included in this section of the forum imo.
I have several Asian friends who were born here in Australia - which makes them Australians - that have been vilified on social media and racially abused for being "Asian" and "spreading the corona virus" in Australia.

I have seen first hand the hurt caused by ignorant people who think "it's just a joke."

Please think about it.

This is not a defense nor did I contribute, but I will point out people use humor and entertainment for make fearful things less fearful. Ring Around The Rosie for example being about the Bubonic Plague.

Still remember the FIRE! episode exclamation mark!

Is that when he made the fire look like a screen saver when his boss walked in?

It is true, Asians all over including in the US are getting a bad rap and are being discriminated against. Discrimination against any human is wrong and I apologize for my contribution in this forum.

Thank you @Porthos

I dont think singing "Ring around the rosie" can compare to "you filthy slant eyed slut, why dont you go back to China and take your stinking diseases with you!" Do you?
Especially when the person in question was born here and has never even been to China.

Absolutely not, but I also fail to see that as being any type of joke whatsoever

Indeed, and doing "apples and oranges" comparisons does not strengthen an argument or position. And I hasten to add that I find racist rants loathsome.

Why is it Apple & Oranges, I find that extremely fruitist. Why Not Bananas and Pears? Why should Apples & Oranges be segregated into opposing groups.

Oh, heavens, there's someone else out there for whom this is the norm!! Who knew?! [Don't do it now as much as I did when I was "growing into my growing body" but it still happens upon rare occasion.]

But if it's upstairs you have no where to go but down......
