*You* are the one that read race into it. I didn't put it there. It's not the way I read it nor understood it. Maybe that makes me a simpleton, but that's the way my mind works. I don't read race into everything I see or read.

it's impossible not to read race into it. the thing is full of racial stereotypes, and it has a long history of use as a racist joke. if that wasn't your intent, fine. i'll take your word for it. but maybe reading a little closer next time would be prudent.

by judging 1) before they know the facts, and 2) without understanding intent, and 3) without knowing the poster, and 4) by assigning motives to the poster (which says more about the downvoter than about the poster)

No, it's not impossible. Get your mind in the right place.

Perhaps so, but as I said I wasn't aware of that and I wouldn't have posted it had I been. At least not in it's posted form.

Perhaps, but my way of reading things like this is usually anti-gov't and I would tend *not* to see racial/prejudicial slants in things. My intent was a humorous jab at the gov't welfare system, not anything/anyone else.

I didn't insult any welfare recipients. There you go again assigning motives. I insulted the welfare system, not it's recipients.

I can't move it, and I wouldn't as I don't think anything is wrong with the joke. But I see some prejudiced perps downvoted to have the message removed.

Actually I did see that thread, but didn't get the reference due to the vitriolic response of certain other CP members throwing my thinking off-kilter. Good joke, even if it had to be explained to me.
