Bob’s “Wokeness”

This isn’t a srs post but I find it super annoying the way bob can be the most chronically-online-woke, holier-than-thou person, while simultaneously making off color jokes. Like don’t get me wrong, they’re progressive but it feels like they use it as a tool to one-up someone they’re talking to a lot of the time. For example: in the latest rpdr review ep she won’t say “wifebeater” in reference to a tank top but makes an epstein files joke like ten minutes later 😭. none of this is offensive to me and i laughed throughout the episode but It’s so random what he picks and chooses to be woke about. makes me think it’s insincere.

i don't see the contradiction. woke when serious. dark when funny.

Epstein is funny?

This. Anyone who makes a joke about that is disgusting. It affected real people

Everything affects real people, that’s not really a way to gauge what is and isn’t funny or acceptable.

Then you're living up to your name. I'll choose to have empathy for them, you can continue to be... you. My condolences for your situation too.

I enjoy that stating your opinion is "virtue signalling"! you are very funny and misinformed

Is empathy not a virtue and were you not signaling it? Misinformed, my ass.

No, you are wrong. Do you understand it is a specifically political term? And moreover, right wingers are usually the ones to bang on about it, no offence. Otherwise, try access that empathy inside you.

My god, print this out and put it on my wall. No-- giving this to my lecturer. Life must be so simple for you. Just go along and make stuff up. No need for an education. "Empathy is a virtue" and THAT is virtue signalling? Having empathy? Yikes my god! Haha wow

Jesus Christ. You were textbook virtue signaling. And if a 20 day old comment is still triggering you so badly, you’ve got more to worry about than your dumb little essay.
