Lol! I wonder if he recently watched “Invasion of the Body Snatchers” or something.

I would say he is using the phrase more in reference to(but necessarily referring to) The General from Undercover Brother, or more recently, the body snatching from Get Out. It’s kind of a stereotypical black fear/conspiracy theory.

Well gosh I suppose boing boing shouldn’t share black-produced content since black vernacular is so troubling to you…

You don’t realize how badly I want this to somehow be related to that TV special of Gilligan’s Island from the early 80’s, in which the Harlem Globetrotters must play basketball against a squad of evil robots.

Good excuse here to test Discourse’s new “Silence user” feature.

It should suffice to say that just because black people have appropriated the N-word, that doesn’t mean you should shout it out over and over like a teenager who has just learned that not everything in the universe is for them.

Nah, he’s not a robot; he’s just doing a bit of mindfulness meditation.
