Google doodle honors "afrocentrism" and blm

[Wallenburg]

They're things she cares about. Things that had a strong effect on her life, and the lives of many other people.

Who cares what she cares about? And again it is not original. She cares about what she is told to care about. Nothing in there is orginal. If I was going to make an absurd over the too collection of cliches I could not beat that crap.

I highly doubt a mindless drone would produce this sort of artwork. Just because the kid believes things you don't doesn't mean that she's been brainwashed.

[Kautharr]

I have a 2gb folder of memes so if you want I could make that happen.

I have to say, that takes dedication to the art form.

thank you

[Shaggy Dog Story]

I don't know how allowing children to express themselves is narcissistic.

What makes me, me is however. Plus is she really expressing herself? Or the cliches society and the media have foisted on her? Because that is all that picture is. A satire worthy collection of cliches. Is a bunch of cliches all you are?

Self realization and self actualization is not narcissism. They're actually critically important parts of adolescent development. As for it being cliché...you realize you're criticizing the artistic efforts of a child. Do you really want to be that guy?

It matters what she cares about because she's a child trying to learn how to understand and express herself. Most of us went through the same thing at one time.
She cares about things that are relevant to her, and have an impact on her. They speak to a reality she's experienced all her life.

Oh yes. Blindly accepting cliches is so expressing yourself. No way to express yourself like being exactly what society tells you to be.

If she wants to express herself and original thought might be a place to start.

Is it a cliché to find something meaningful which others have also found meaningful? That definition seems excessively broad.

It's at worst kind of derivative. But she's a child.

Yeah. One does have to start somewhere.

I'm no fan of art. But if some kid wants to draw a picture and Google wants to use it cool. Unless she's doing it for the Blm movement specifically, what's it go to do with it and why would it matter?

Also, the fuck is an Afrocentrism?
And who cares about it?

[Vassenor]

It's anything that doesn't exclusively focus on White people, and anything that doesn't exclusively focus on White people is bad. Clearly.

Really?
So there's no asiancentrism?

It's only white people and people who are not white people are all covered in Afrocentrism?

That seems weird.

Tut tut.

We all know this street only runs one way.

If the doodle had a white face, "power" and a clenched white fist above "Washington" you'd be shittin brix and no one would be defending it as a "kid's drawing". Kid would probably be in handcuffs.

I was *trying* to be sarcastic. The whole "it's not all about white people so it's bad" thing is pretty much where this thread started though.

Yeah, everyone would think the kids a communist. They'd be after his fucking head.

My question is will google realize that fair is fair and start using doodles that honor the white people in this country[/quote]

lmao you do understand that almost all the doodles that they make are for famous white people who've had birthdays or whatnot? But, God forbid, when Google tries to understand the motives of a different group, it's unfair? Come on.

Anyone who wants to can view old Google Doodles here. http://www.google.com/doodles/

Oh, I often don't grasp sarcasm till its pointed out.

And 'oh'.

It's difficult to express in a text based format.

children learn by imitation and even in art classes they are encouraged to view the work of established artist and 'learn' their style. So if this child chose to take on influences which affected her and express her sense of self in a way that was informed by those influences then good on her.

ultimately all art is derivative

"Who cares about what you care about?"

Right back 'atcha. Read the contest again - what she cares about, what she perceives as affecting her, in spite of your oh so edgy determination that we are all apparently nothing but a media-created burbling of cliches, memes, and power words ... Your opinion matters not one whit in the context of this girl's picture. It isn't about you. You don't figure into it.

As some say when winding an uncomfortable point up ... deal with it. ^_^

"A while back google 'honored' vets on their holiday by featuring no white males in their doodle..."

There was white male in the doodle. Jesus Christ, do I have to tell every fucking person in this thread? Like I did in a few threads when that happened?

[Justin States 3]

Uh, what? There are a lot of times Google honors white people. You just seem to be upset when they choose to honor someone else

They see what they want to see, and what they want to see is an excuse to shitpost and cry about 'white genocide' and 'sjws' and 'blm' and maybe post a few shitty /pol/ memes.

Logic doesn't work on these sorts of people.

And the worst that can be said is "it's not very original". She's a child for God's sake.
