Regal.
Let's be regal with papa.
I looked it up just to be sure and this shit is Fr y'all The Tasmanian people had a dialect and way of life that was different from other Aborigines. The British killed the men and women of the tribes and took away their food supply when they first arrived. Later they tried to βcivilizeβ the Tasmanians and subject them to foreign diseases to kill off the last of them. The last full-blood Tasmanian woman was said to have lived until the year1888.
Wow!
at this point, what isnt racist in this country??!!
WHAT THE FUCK
Wow π³π₯
As a History Concentration with a rather unsettling love for Looney Tunes and other classic cartoons, I never thought that Iβd see the day where my two completely unrelated passions merged up so wonderfully.
And yet, here we are.
So letβs talk about Tasmania, shall we?
Actually, pretty much everything that the OP said about Tasmania is correct.
By the way, her name was Truganini (Nickname: Lallah Rookh.)Β If youβre going to use her legacy to try to criticize an old cartoon character you should at least give her the common courtesy of a name.
Now then, letβs talk about Looney Tunes.
Or more specifically, let us talk about the Tasmanian Devil.
Taz for short.
Great character.
Fun, energetic, hungry, and not a racist portrayal in any way, shape, or form.
The statement that Taz is a racist portrayal of the Tasmanian people is completely and one hundred percent wrong.
Now I know what youβre thinkingβ¦
βAlright marauders4evr, what is the Tasmanian Devil based off of?β
Well, Im glad that you asked.
GatherΒ βround and listen closely now because this is going to be one of the greatest revelations that you will ever hear in your mortal lives.
The Tasmanian Devilβ¦
β¦is based off of the Tasmanian Devil!
Yeah!
Itβs a real animal!
An energetic animal who eats everything in its sight.
And Robert McKimson based a character off of it.
Speaking of one of the great men behind Looney Tunesβ¦
Letβs talk about Mel Blanc!
I love him!
I wish that I could have met him!
Heβs one of my late heroes.
Phenomenal voice actor.
The best that has ever existed.
The Man of 1000 Voices heβs called.
(And thatβs an underestimate!)
The point is that he took a lot of pride in his work.
So what did he base Tazβs dialect off of?
I can tell you right now that it wasnβt the Tasmanian people.
Mel Blanc based the sound of the Tasmanian Devilβ¦
β¦off of the Tasmanian Devil!
Hereβs a clip of Tazβs dialect:
And hereβs a clip of the Tasmanian Devilβs scream:
(Chilling, ainβt it?)
(On a side note, I just love to imagine Mel in the recording booth, screaming and growling before calmly doing Bugsβ voice!)
In conclusionβ¦
What happened to the Tasmanian people truly is saddening and I wish that it hadnβt happened.
THE TASMANIAN DEVIL (TAZ) IS NOT A RACIST PORTRAYAL IN ANY WAY, SHAPE, OR FORM
THE TASMANIAN DEVIL IS A REAL ANIMAL!
MEL BLANC WAS AWESOME AND DESERVES YOUR UTMOST RESPECT!
T-T-T-T-T-T-THATβS ALL FOLKS!
Found it, horray for the search function working occasionally
The desire to make everything everywhere racist for the sake of killing all cultural things is getting out of hand and I love it when people curb stomp them so hard it echos.
Since the mid-1970s, Tasmanian Aboriginal activists such as Michael Mansell have sought to broaden awareness and identification of Aboriginal descent. After campaigning by Tasmanian Aboriginal people in April 2023, UNESCO removed a document claiming they were extinct.[23]
Contemporary figures (2016) on the number of people of Tasmanian Aboriginal descent vary depending on the criteria used to determine this identity, ranging from 6,000 to over 23,000.[24][25] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aboriginal_Tasmanians
Even their basic claim is not just false, but was proven false long before the Leftists here were born. As for the current Tasmanian Aboriginals not being βpure bloodsβ, itβs funny how much of Leftism is straight out of the National Socialist playbook.
βThe Palawa, mainly descendants of white male sealers and Tasmanian Aboriginal women who settled on the Bass Strait islands, were given the power to decide who is of Tasmanian Aboriginal descent at the state level (entitlement to government Aboriginal services).β Now, donβt get me wrong, I think the Leftists SHOULD travel to Canberra and tell the government that the Tasmanian Aboriginals are extinct and therefore not able to receive the enormous benefits given to aboriginal people. For example, ABC Australia reported that an able bodied aboriginal woman has to wait less than two years for housing. The waiting time for a disable white man is at least thirty years. The subsidy you get for being βaboriginalβ is so enormous, that the government has announced that it wanted to alter the constitution to permanently elevate them to a higher caste than all other races. There was a referendum and it was defeated, but the government often conducts referendums for things like the Australia Card, then when they are defeated the government goes ahead and does it anyway through back doors and other corupt means. Currently children are taught at school that a Wakandan Super-State called THE FIRST NATIONSβ’ ruled here sometime around the time of the dinosaurs, yet despite being the oldest continous civilisation the universe has ever seen, it also never managed the wheel, agriculture, animal domestication, a common language, maps, writing, or mathematics.
I do love the fact that Leftists love lies so much that they will lie about the existence of the Tasmanian Devil. Honestly, we should encourage them to embrace that delusion by tying up the Leftists and tossing them into cages for the devils to have a munch on. I mean, it canβt hurt them because Tassie Devils arenβt real, amiright?
they're calling it the most reddit post of all time
So we're supposed to agree with the people who thought Harvey Weinstein was a swell guy? Gotcha. The place where every child star has a molestation story? Gotcha.
I've seen some bad takes but this is on a whole different level
All around us is evidence of how hysterically-insane and culturally-destructive the Woke Era got. All traces of it must be trampled into the dirt and ground into dust so it can never rise again.
Netflix say this, but conveniently ignores that Gone With The Wind is the first movie for which a black actress (Hattie McDaniel) won a Oscar.
This really does seem to be about 90% of everything women are reading and writing this century.
