Today is the 50th anniversary of the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom. It was on this day, 50 years ago, Martin Luther King Jr. delivered his famous “I had a dream…” speech.

As you can assume, being that this is *of course* a post-racial America, the American people commemorated this milestone anniversary with respectful intellectual discussion on race, equality, and more.

lolololol. Yeah, ok, sadly that did not happen. I now bring you the very worst that was brought out on this day, 50 years later:

Fox News Invokes “Problematic Rap Music” to Discuss 50th Anniversary of March on Washington Because BLACK PEOPLE!

That is not a photoshop. It is an actual segment that actually happened on Fox News the day before the 50th Anniversary of the March on Washington. This is dog-whistle politics at it’s best, folks! And besides that mixtape Martin Luther King Jr. dropped a few decades ago, you may be wondering what the March on Washington and rap have to do with each other? Well, black people, duh!

TV Channel Uses MLK to Promote Golf

“Five holes ago, a great golfer…” Yeah. How about no? It seems like the geniuses over at the GOLF CHANNEL thought using Martin Luther King Jr. to market their product was a great idea. Well, I had a dream that staff over at the Golf Channel felt immense shame and regret for this dumb tweet. While they have since deleted the tweet, I doubt my dream came true as they have yet to put out a statement or even acknowledge the tweet.

Macklemore, the Rapper, and Martin Luther King Jr., the Civil Rights Leader, Are So Similar You Guys

This photo hit my Twitter feed today. I’ve seen a lot of shit on the Internet that turned out to be fake but I can assure you this is real. In fact, if you’d actually like to read this “piece” you can read the thing here. I would just like to add this. While this writer argues that there are parallels between straight white male rapper living in 2013, Macklemore, and black civil rights leader living during segregation, Martin Luther King Jr. I would just like to state that MLK NEVER had the honor of working with Ryan Lewis. Or maybe I’m wrong and Ryan Lewis is the connection between rap and the March on Washington that Fox News uncovered.

Right Wing Fox News Pundit Interrupts Civil Rights Leader with a GUNSHOT

Listen to the clip above. What better way to cut off a civil rights leader’s speech then with a gunshot? That’s exactly what Fox News’ Laura Ingraham did when she played a bit of audio from civil rights icon and current Congressman John Lewis’ March on Washington speech. It’s not like a civil rights leader has ever been assassinated.

But, wait! Laura Ingraham gave batshit crazy right wing news site Newsbusters a statement on this whole silly thing…

…and boy were us idiot leftists dead wrong!

My producers and I have used this blow up effect to interrupt windbags…

Ah the old “it’s not a gunshot, it’s an explosion!” defense. How silly of us to think it was a gun going off, when it was really a bomb blowing up! If you’re like to read the rest of her ridiculous statement, it’s here.

Conservatives Really Have No Clue Who the Hell Martin Luther King Jr. Was

Obama spoke at the 50th Anniversary of the March on Washington. The right wing attacked his speech for being socialist, for invoking words of class warfare like income inequality.

The only problem?

Obama was literally quoting Martin Luther King Jr. verbatim.

You see, MLK was more like the imaginary class warfare socialist leftist Obama the right wing has created in their little minds than actual real life Barack Obama is. Many forget the March on Washington was not just for “freedom,” but for jobs too. You see, Martin Luther King Jr. fought for not only social equality, but economic equality too. MLK gave what would be his last speech to striking sanitation workers!

But, don’t tell these folks that…

By the way, here’s just one of the things MLK said about capitalism:

“It started out with a noble and high motive, viz, to block the trade monopolies of nobles, but like most human system it fail victim to the very thing it was revolting against. So today capitalism has outlived its usefulness.”

lmao. Maybe y'all should read a little about Martin Luther King Jr. There’s much, much more to him beyond the “I had a dream…” speech.

Right Wing ‘News’ Websites Upset Over Google Doodle Because Black People All Look the Same to Them

The Daily Caller and Twitchy both posted similar stories concerning Google’s 50th anniversary of the March on Washington doodle. For those unfamiliar with the two websites, they are Conservative “news” sites, run by Tucker Carlson and Michelle Malkin, respectively. The fact that Carlson or Malkin are able to run any sort of publication and call it “news” is a crime against humanity. (Interesting note on Twitchy: right wingers have called this very blog a “leftist” Twitchy and honestly being called a “Twitchy anything” has made me consider just shutting it all down.)

ANYWAY, back to the stories they both posted. Apparently, a Google Doodle has pissed off Conservatives ONCE AGAIN. Let’s take a look at a little of what the Daily Caller posted:

Yes, that’s right. Take a look at the Google Doodle again. Now, re-read what their problem with it is and why they’re calling it “Obama-worship."

"Did MLK’s ears look like that?”

The right wing is seriously arguing that because of how Martin Luther King Jr.’s EARS look in this drawing, Google is trying to subliminally promote PRESIDENT BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA.

“That drawing of a black man has ears! It MUST BE noted ear-ed black man, Barack Obama!”

I wish everything in this post was some sort of terrible, horrific nightmare of a dream. But, it’s not. Do not attempt to wake yourself up. The stupidity is real.

Update: I usually don’t update these besides maybe a typo here or there. I certainly don’t usually update this long after a post goes up. But, SHIT. I had to add THIS REDDIT POST.
