Where’s Tim Scott when you need him?

[–] [email protected] 22 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

He is busy having an entirely heterosexual dinner date with his heterosexual female Christian girlfriend.

He’s not running for president anymore, he should have some free time.

What's Tolkien have to do with this?

Bone apple tea moment. (Token)

[–] [email protected] 6 points 11 months ago

No, they retconned his name to be Tolkien because Token just doesn't sit well as a joke anymore, especially because they have other black characters on the show now.

It is also a racial slur that has been used historically to degrade and dehumanize blacks.

That was what South Park was getting at by naming their one black kid Token. And after 20+ years, they retconned him to be named Tolkien.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 11 months ago

Yes, that's why he was named Token to begin with.

I came here to find out and now I'm going with: "nothing."
