Mary Poppins now is a racist

The classic family film Mary Poppins has been branded racist by a US academic who accuses Dame Julie Andrews of 'blacking up' with soot while dancing with chimney sweeps.

In a piece for the New York Times, Professor Daniel Pollack-Pelzner criticises one of the film's iconic moments, when Mary Poppins joins Dick Van Dyke's Bert to dance on a rooftop for the classic song Step in Time.

He writes: "When the magical nanny (played by Julie Andrews) accompanies her young charges, Michael and Jane Banks, up their chimney, her face gets covered in soot, but instead of wiping it off, she gamely powders her nose and cheeks even blacker."

Good.

Calling stuff racist is a liberal’s favorite hobby. :3

I think Vic is a liberal. He’s certainly the crybaby pansy.

Seems to be the case that some people just want to be the first to label something established and possibly beloved as being racist and they can give themselves delusions of superiority.

"You've all been tying your shoelaces for years without realizing that shoelaces are racist you phucking racists, even though I'm a 54 year old academic and I'm only bringing this up now, two decades into the 21st century."

There isn’t anything actually racist about Mary Poppins, that’s the funny part.

Lol. That settles it. Nothing is racist anymore. When everything is racist, nothing is.

I don't care if Trump paints his entire body with black makeup and sings "zip a dee doo dah". That can't be racist now, cuz nothing is racist.

Nope, can't be. Feel free to commit all the racial hate crimes you want, racism has been blinked out of existence. Thanks leftists!

^I hope this racist f*cker got lynched

She is responsible for diabetes among young people! Why god why?

There are more important things that black people need to focus on, not this. The whole point of this is to make people mentally ill and not deal with important issues.

Even if there was something racist, who cares? Let's assume it is racist(it's not, but we shall for this hypothetical). Who is currently harmed by the fact a movie from the 1960s was racist? What is the point in crying about it?

The fact a remake recently came out isn't an excuse to cry about racism unless the remake kept the "racist" elements.

SHE DID GREEN FACE YOU BASTARD! That's insulting to Gumby.
