damn, who went back in time and started wokeness. Oh wait, you mean wokeness just means being respectful and informed about the issues of p.o.c?

To put this under modern context: one of my favorite sitcoms growing up was Married... with Children. One of my favorite anime ever is Cromartie High School. An episode of the former closed out on the punchline that one of the few women to legitimately have feelings for Bud Bundy(whose running gag is that he always failed at getting a girlfriend) was born a man. The Dub of Cromartie tried to mimic the lingo of High School delinquents in the 2000s, and in one of the jokes from the dub they dropped the hard "f" word to mock some characters. These shows are still funny for me, and among my faves, and still give me chuckles. But what I enjoyed 20 years ago isn't automatically stuff that folks from 20 years later would appreciate, so I have learned not to go full Dickwolf if something I enjoy can occasionally be seen as an issue by others. It's just like how the FGC(fighting games community mind) eventually grew out of using the phrase of r-ping an opponent when beating them in a match- so too can we adapt our forms of humor from time to time too.

The sad thing is we've gone so extreme that things aren't acceptable even where they're intended to show appreciation. Mocking is one thing. But say there's a white guy who's massively into reggae music. He couldn't go to a fancy dress party as Bob Marley even though Marley may be his idol. The intent is never looked at. (And the irony is Bob was both black and white, but SJWs wouldn't be able to take that on board).

Here in The Netherlands blackface is still very much alive and kicking today ('Black Piet', helper of the original, Dutch version of Santa Claus). I'm sickened to see how backwards many people (not all) around here are, almost sixty years after Marx' words above. And - like he says - it is quite easy to leave it behind: I grew up with it, I liked it then, I don't like it anymore.

Groucho was no ignorant fool stuck in the old ways of the past. He realized the culture had changed immensely since his turn-of-the-twentieth-century youth, that what had been a popular form of entertainment was becoming widely regarded as offensive and demeaning to black people, and he admitted this fact up-front to Buckley without any sign of regret or bemoaning. This shows great maturity and wisdom, and a capacity for accepting change!

@@andordimeny6130 It's "common sense" because it's leftist propaganda and leftist propaganda is often taken for common sense. If you're making fun of someone "lower" than you for no reason at all, you're a dick. But if you're making a point, criticizing an idea or a custom or a habit, as people making jokes often are, it's bad for society and bad for the "have nots" to have the "have nots" immune from all criticism.

I hate wokeness, I hate performative diversity, I hate PC culture that seems to constantly be looking to infuse neutral things with unintended insult, like a religious body, coming up with new rules for their parishioners - however I’m in total agreement with Groucho here, things like blackface. It wasn’t JUST a matter of a fun little show where someone dresses like someone else. It was an actively portraying black people as a joke. Going well beyond stereotypes into the realm of humiliating caricature. It would be like watching a movie where every character from your state was shown as vapid, stupid, and a completely 1 dimensional joke. It wasn’t a mater of just “not PC” it was a cruel depiction that everyone just kinda winked at.

That's not what the two men meant. What Buckley meant as "tension" was the fact that there was a civil rights movement still brewing in the 1960s that was nothing like it was in the 1920s. When Groucho described as the "struggle today" was something that the civil rights made more apparent to white people in America. The struggles of the black community were not truly apparent to White America until the 1960s when civil rights became much more prominent. Black pain was shown on TV, newspapers, magazines and public rallies in the 60s like they never ever were in previous decades. Groucho is coming here from a place of genuine empathy and learning. It shows he became wise in his years.
