The Hundreds of Ethnic Minority Groups Make It Really Hard to Be Politically Correct With Your Racism

In the 1970s there were three television channels: CBS, NBC and ABC.

People didn’t pine for a thousand channels [...]

The Modern Jew

The Modern Jew has nothing to do with religion. You’re pretty much an athiest, but you’re stuck with all these spot-on stereotypes and personality traits that are undeniably Jewish. It’s sort of like being a black person except the exact opposite. These stereotypes include, but are not limited to, living in New York or Los [...]
