When we discuss tribalism, we usually concentrate on tribalists
refusing to help those in their outgroup despite good reason to
do so. But the overlooked complement to this is the tribalist
tendency to proactively help those in their ingroup even when
there is no reason to do so:

[quote]Good Morning Britain shut down its own debate on cancel
culture today after a guest defended Boris Johnson for saying
women in burkas looked like letterboxes – before branding its
male meteorologist 'the weathergirl'.
Comedian Leo Kearse said the PM's comment in 2018 was deployed
as a 'visual gag' and was 'not a hateful thing' to say as he
appeared on the show.[/quote]
Why should something automatically become acceptable just
because it is labelled as a joke (usually by the person who said
it who wants to avoid consequences)? What does it really mean
when our enemies claim that bad behaviour becomes acceptable if
it is a joke? It means that so long as the ingroup finds it
funny, it does not matter that it hurts the outgroup. This is
the same tribalist logic that accounts for every behaviour from
colonialism to animal experimentation: the ingroup benefits, so
who cares about the outgroup?
Kearse is correct. Rightist jokes are not hateful. False
Leftists who only know how to call rightist jokes "hateful" will
never get anywhere. Call rightist jokes what they are: tribalist
bullying. Bullies never hate their victims. Bullies consider
their victims to be their source of entertainment.
[quote]But his claims were leapt on by Dr Shola Mos-Shogbamimu
who blasted him for 'utterly reprehensible' opinions and said he
was 'part of the problem'.
Self-confessed 'uncloseted right-wing' comic Kearse hit back
pointing out that white men with rosy cheeks get called gammon
and asked her why that was not considered racist.[/quote]
Because those rosy-cheeked men have been inaccurately calling
themselves "white" for over 500 years and getting away with it.
Calling them gammon is merely a way to expose their gaslighting
(gaslighting itself being a form of bullying, thus
anti-gaslighting is anti-bullying):

In contrast, burqa-wearers have not described themselves
inaccurately in any official capacity, therefore calling them
letterboxes is unprovoked and thus bullying. The difference
between gammon and letterbox is same as the difference between
retaliatory violence and initiated violence.
Anyway, this is Kearse:

[quote]When Black Lives Matter or other liberal protest groups
block a road for an evening, there is no shortage of calls for
violence. Right-wing legislators hastily pass laws that would
make it legal to run over protesters, and conservative pundits
flood the airwaves and social media to decry the unspeakable
horror of holding up traffic for a few hours.
But now that a very loud but ultimately small group of white
people in Canada have disrupted the flow of goods and people for
weeks, their tone is, predictably, different. Black people and
their allies protesting police brutality is an affront to the
American project. But fighting for the liberty to contract an
infectious disease and give it to your neighbor? That’s called
freedom, baby.
...
As more proof that conservatives will latch on to anything that
advances their cause, let’s check in on their crusade for “law
and order.”
If we were to take their proclamations at face value, a dozen
truckers blocking border crossings to and from one of our
biggest trade partners seems like it would be cause for concern.
But anyone who has been watching the conservative movement for
the last 50 years knows that law and order is only for Black
people.
And remember when everyone was blaming Joe Biden for the supply
chain issues that have plagued the globe since the onset of the
pandemic? For a week, the truckers blocked important border
crossings, impeding the movement of goods and people. Auto
plants on both sides of the border had to operate at a reduced
capacity because they couldn’t receive the proper parts required
for making cars.
Looks like supply chain issues weren’t that big of a concern
after all, just a way to score cheap political points.[/quote]

To the extent that bullfighters are overwhelmingly male, yes,
bullfighting is toxic masculinity. Bullfighters should never be
allowed to be fathers; that is how patriarchy should be smashed.

[quote]Republicans Criticize Biden For Not Starving Undocumented
Immigrant Babies
Republicans criticized the Biden administration on Thursday for
providing food to infants detained in its custody — effectively
suggesting the babies should be starved because of their
immigration status.
...
Greene referenced photos of baby formula at a border facility,
likely referring to a Washington Examiner article about
immigrants detained at the border receiving baby formula amid a
nationwide shortage. Nehls also tweeted a link to the article.
The Examiner refers to the immigrants as a “lucky group” and
cites posts by Rep. Kat Cammack (R-Fla.) about “thousands and
thousands of containers of baby formula” being sent to the
border. Cammack said she received a photo of the deliveries from
a border agent.
...
The right has demonized undocumented immigrants for years, and
the U.S. has a disturbing record of neglecting or mistreating
children in its care. In one of the most infamous examples,
former President Donald Trump intentionally split children from
their parents in an attempt to dissuade immigrants from coming
to the United States. For years, Republican lawmakers have
blocked efforts to grant legal status to undocumented immigrants
who came to the U.S. as kids. Republican politicians have
suggested immigrant detention centers, including ones that lock
up children, are too nice.[/quote]

Here is a succinct example of our enemies' obliviousness:
HTML https://www.amren.com/commentary/2022/06/shes-gonna-blow/
[quote]In summer children really could play great sprawling
multi-block games of hide-and-seek after dark and no one
worried. In high school in rural Virginia (I was there too) the
boys had guns for hunting deer and shooting varmints in the bean
fields and you could leave your .410 in the back seat of your
jalopy in the school’s parking lot. Nobody thought of shooting
anyone.[/quote]
The deer and the "varmints" don't count?
[quote]When two cultures have utterly different views of
acceptable language, dress, behavior, study, and curricula,
mixing them does not work. In the schools, academic standards
fell. Discipline became a problem. Across America, cities burned
because of conflict between black populations and white police.
Euro-white culture, it turned out, was incompatible with Negro
culture.[/quote]
Which culture would the deer and the "varmints" prefer?
