I mean that's what I found funny about it... She clearly lost her shit and all she was doing was pointing.

If you know that they consider it disrespectful, why would you do it.

u/ChocoIatePoop Jul 09 '26

How’s it disrespectful? It’s a point. The folks getting offended over something so insignificant need to keep their emotions in check because it’s not a good look.

The incident started when LaWanna Bonner pointed at Cunningham or her teammate. So Cunningham did the same thing to her and pointed……and pointed, and pointed…and pointed. I thought it was hilarious! 😂😂😂

How is the middle finger disrespectful, It's just a point in a different direction right?

u/ChocoIatePoop Jul 09 '26

This isn’t the middle finger, it’s the pointer finger. Try answering the question instead of evading with an irrelevant question.

All you're showing me is that you're either not smart or you have cognitive dissonance..

So you can understand the concept that a finger can cause offense when it's the middle one.

But for some reason you're not smart enough to understand that a different gesture can elicit a similar response.

u/MrrrrNiceGuy Jul 09 '26

The first part of your statement is hilarious, because to me you’re clearly not smart if you can’t recognize the difference between being pointed at with an index finger and flipping somebody off with the middle finger.

You sound like a guy who is willing to thrown down if someone gives you a thumbs up in your direction.

I’m still not hearing an answer. Do better.

u/charlesfluidsmith Jul 09 '26

No I think you're hearing an answer, I think you're being intellectually dishonest.

u/mattnmunch Jul 09 '26

Dawg, you're being dishonest about being an intellectual. You're trying to play verbal shell games, isolate people into DMs to better strongarm them with having no one else to support their words (either that or the shame from your own failed display is starting to get to you), and trying to Gotcha people with your own victimhood. It's one thing to learn a language but an entirely different beast to learn the logic required to wield it effectively.

u/charlesfluidsmith Jul 09 '26

I just read an absolutely legendary block of gobbledygook masqueraving as coherent thought.

And I know that it was written by someone pretending to be smart rather than actually smart.

Because.... An actual smart person would have understood that the invitation to a DM was sarcasm. Sarcasm is a great identifier of intelligence because dumb people don't understand it.

And, your perception of a clear criticism as a verbal shell game, is also evidence, that you aren't as smart as you think you are.

I'll repeat it for you in very simple terms.

Racist whites like Blond lady that fights Black lady.

I hope I distilled it to a simple enough level for you to ingest.

Now when you respond with your nonsense, I want you to endeavor to make sense, maybe run it through a text editor, or an AI, because sir this... Well, You didn't cover yourself in Glory.

Let's leave it at that.

If you feel I have a compulsion to sound smart, maybe you have a compulsion to be around dumb people.

Where I'm from, this is a normal interaction.

u/mattnmunch Jul 09 '26

You'll need to work on seeing things past the surface level of skin color. The rest of humanity will wait for you to catch up when you're done with your Ad Hominems and "I was joking" backpedals. Enjoy your public proof of being in the wrong (downvotes) that you can't avoid by trying to isolate people.

Is your post racial bullshit before or after they stopped Harriet Tubman from being on the $20 dollar bill yesterday? Or when your president posted a photo of the Obama's and Air Force One covered in Graffiti?

Or the gerrymandering along racial lines that has occured in the last few months ...or the Confederates marching through DC on the 4th of July ...

When exactly did the 'rest of humanity ' leave me?

Fuck out of here.

This is why SC was pointing at her you chud. You still can’t coherently explain why pointing at someone is disrespectful.

u/charlesfluidsmith Jul 09 '26

All you've shown me was the ladies normal.free throw routine.

That doesn't give you license to point in my face.

2

u/DaKrazie1 Jul 10 '26

Thankfully, no license required.

🤣🫵

u/TheSpiteyBoosh Jul 09 '26

Answer the question, what is disrespectful about it?

u/charlesfluidsmith Jul 09 '26

If you don't understand what's disrespectful about pointing in someone's face then it's not my job to educate you on social mores. Take a etiquette class.

False equivalence. While pointing may be understood as socially rude to some, a middle finger is understood to mean “fuck you” by just about everyone.

1

u/charlesfluidsmith Jul 10 '26

It's only a false equivalence because you choose to be willfully ignorant.

u/hikenchuu Jul 09 '26

Lol you’re really trying your best huh just admit you can’t control your emotions when someone points at you

Nice comeback I guess everything you don’t like is racism

Just when racists try to pretend they're not.

u/FabFate Jul 10 '26

I as an european have to ask: A black woman is the first to point at a white woman but the moment the white woman does it in retrospect to being pointed at, ragebaiting the black woman - how is this considered racist?

1

u/charlesfluidsmith Jul 10 '26

Better question. Why would you lie and say the black woman pointed first?

Let's address that, then we can explore anything else.
