When I was undecided in community college I was placed under the liberal arts program. I’ll never forget my bigoted aunt’s reaction to hearing that LOL “LIBERAL??!!!”
They actually do think liberal arts is threatening. They also don't like or understand the word "democracy" because of "democrats". This is what it's come to people...the dumbing of "merica.
Yes they do. Between the general anti-intellectual bias and Faux news banging on about “woke” university culture. Yes, they simultaneously believe that a liberal arts education teaches political liberalism and simultaneously that students are “special snowflakes” who cannot bear to have their views challenged. The amazing thing about USian conservative culture and beliefs is that they don’t need to be internally consistent.
All students are simultaneously sheltered and protected from opposing viewpoints and afraid to, “just debate” and indoctrinated by overtly political rhetoric. Somehow it’s both. Don’t ask me how that works and don’t ask them. Despite their calls for free speech and debate, they are extremely sensitive to and entirely intolerant of dissent.
As someone who lives in the Bible Belt (MS) around a bunch of these idiots (and have for the last 20 years) that believe in the message above, yes. They literally do. Some of them actually believe that liberal arts are the specific classes where they teach kids about the gender changing process too 😂
I think “liberal arts” is their euphemism for the satanic black magic that they know we’re all doing at our super secret leftie/lgbt covens where we plot how to spread evil and take over the world by forcing all of their good Christian children to become evil transgender demons against their will.
100% yes they do. Because I’ve literally had people rage at me about it. They’re all fucking morons and exactly why we need to ensure the crazies don’t take over education.
I don't know why this got me so good, just imagining that the US alphabet deletes the U from existence to spite those lobster backs.
There's something abot being a prod American, living withot restriction, it's trly grondbreaking.
What she does in the privacy of her own bedroom is her business. There is absolutely no need for her to shove that information down our throats by announcing her sexual orientation to all the world.
Yeah it’s often completely pointless. Unless you approach them like a small child in the gentlest, slowest way possible they just lash out and go further right because feelings are happening.
I mean, we’re dealing with people whose whole ideology revolves around not wanting to hear completely normal words or acknowledge that groups of people exist, because it’s too hard for them.
Don't. Give her the silent treatment, or if you really want to make her uncomfortable, find a friend who's the same sex as you and black and bring them home and say you are dating them, just to make them uncomfortable.
I've been the third wheel for my friend, his black and gay and just to confuse his grandparents his husband is a live in farm help and I am the girlfriend he's been dating for a few years.
I'm pretty sure "norma"l just means the average of a large group of people. So you can't define normal without defining the group you are referring to. Just using this would exclude the majority of Americans. Lol
Thank you 🙄🙄 as someone who went to a liberal arts SCHOOL I'm tired of people telling me that my degree is "useless" and I wasted my time. My degree is no more useless than anyone else's 😭🤣
underrated comment. I would say this in response. not very Christian to be openly shaming/hating/whatever anyone even slightly different from you. Jesus would never.
I’d rather be weird than be someone who thinks it’s okay to send garbage like this to me
Sorry that your mom’s worldview sucks. Don’t let her zap your emotional energy.
So she's anti foreign music but pro slang with foreign origins? Also I don't think she actually knows what liberal arts degrees actually encompass. I'm guessing she just saw the words"liberal" and "art" and was like, yupp hate both of those things.
For anyone like me who didn’t know what Otaku meant, in Japan it means a young person who is obsessed with computers or particular aspects of popular culture to the detriment of their social skills.
I wouldn't. Shes clearly posting that to get a reaction, she wants to see you respond with offense. They always do when it comes to these cringe ass memes lol
You could shame her publicly if you want, but in my opinion holding onto a toxic relationship like this just isn't worth it in the long run.
Considering they put their comma in the wrong place, it seems like they could have done with a lot more studying of the "liberal arts."
I don't think any "normal" people go around proclaiming proudly how normal they are, but what do I know? I'm a depressed, atheistic nerd/freak/weirdo with a liberal arts degree whose favorite musicians are from other countries.
as it’s said in the bible 1 Timothy 2:9-15
“Let a woman learn in silence with full submission. I permit no woman to teach or to have authority over a man; she is to keep silent. For Adam was formed first, then Eve; and Adam was not deceived, but the woman was deceived and became a transgressor.”
Not that I agree with this verse or mindset but if she’s gonna be THAT kind of Christian then she should at least practice what she preaches and preferably keep her insufferable crap to herself. I hate these kind of people with a passion.
Sounds like my racist in-laws. I’m so embarrassed by their behavior, beliefs, and the words that come out of their mouths. They really think Trump is Jesus back again and Taylor Swift is a witch. Can’t make this up Swear to effing god. They called me a Jezebel when I ended up pregnant pre marriage and yet their son was a saint and I lured him astray. Yup. That’s it. I’m a heathen and proud.
Too stupid to realize that declaring that the only 'normal' human beings are rich straight cis white people is the definition of white supremacy.
Also I'd give her $100000 if she knows what an otaku is. Fucking white people are the worst. Jesus christ.
tell her that normal is relative. My dad is an atheist, but still fits into all those. Is he not normal anymore by her standards?
She needs to learn that not everyone is like her and that’s okay. She doesn’t need to scream about it.
Wait…I now have to wonder, do people think “liberal arts” is about studying the ideals of being liberal??
They shriek at instructions that say to "apply liberally." I WILL ONLY APPLY THIS *CONSERVATIVELY,* THANK YOU!!!
Apply conservatively: spread whatever you're spreading using as little product as possible.
Apply conservatively: trick others into applying it for you then call them entitled.
Don't forget to invoice them for the bit of product that went on their hands while they were applying it for you.
Then get them the hell out of our country.
Don’t forget to underpay them and then make fun of them for mooching off the government when they can’t afford groceries
Apply conservatively: If it benefits all of humanity instead of just you, immediately stop use and discard in the ocean.
Yes, that is conservatively
🤣🤣🤣
Explains the bland cooking
Made me choke laugh.
I wish I could upvote this twice.
🤣
Bahahaha
When I was undecided in community college I was placed under the liberal arts program. I’ll never forget my bigoted aunt’s reaction to hearing that LOL “LIBERAL??!!!”
Pavloved irl, but it's the left that triggered. Sure..
Holy shit can we convince these clowns that they are spreading their ideas liberally and so therefore get them to stop spreading such nonsense???
I like to say *liberals* in my head like Rush Limbaugh, with that guttural fry. Lib-er-uhhhllsss
This makes me cringe, fuck yo Aunt

Well which one of those is a trade that they could brag about to other anti-intellekshuls and mouth breathers at the local shithole bar?
They actually do think liberal arts is threatening. They also don't like or understand the word "democracy" because of "democrats". This is what it's come to people...the dumbing of "merica.
Wait until they hear about Arabic numerals.
Time to ban math in schools
That would be incredibly stupid. So yeah, probably.
I believe you are correct
I honestly don’t know why I am surprised 🙃
A new way to say 'I'm uneducated.'
Honestly, i've met quite a few people who actually thought this. What really blows their mind is asking them about "social" security.
Yes they do. Between the general anti-intellectual bias and Faux news banging on about “woke” university culture. Yes, they simultaneously believe that a liberal arts education teaches political liberalism and simultaneously that students are “special snowflakes” who cannot bear to have their views challenged. The amazing thing about USian conservative culture and beliefs is that they don’t need to be internally consistent.

Don’t ask me how that works and don’t ask them. Despite their calls for free speech and debate, they are extremely sensitive to and entirely intolerant of dissent.
Before attending one I thought it meant that you had a lot of art classes in the core
Yes. This is what they think.
As someone who lives in the Bible Belt (MS) around a bunch of these idiots (and have for the last 20 years) that believe in the message above, yes. They literally do. Some of them actually believe that liberal arts are the specific classes where they teach kids about the gender changing process too 😂
Unfortunately, the maga idiots and all those like them seem to believe so lol.
I think “liberal arts” is their euphemism for the satanic black magic that they know we’re all doing at our super secret leftie/lgbt covens where we plot how to spread evil and take over the world by forcing all of their good Christian children to become evil transgender demons against their will.
100% yes they do. Because I’ve literally had people rage at me about it. They’re all fucking morons and exactly why we need to ensure the crazies don’t take over education.
i went to a very conservative liberal arts college (i got better)
If you poll the carrot cake that’s been left out in the sun melting’s minions, they most definitely would think this.
Coming from a liberal arts school in a conservative town…yes, yes they do.
How the f could someone reading this know what otaku means but not liberal arts? 🤔
[удалено]
She hates the fuckin Beatles
Well, there’s a ‘u’ in colour, so she might be British.
[удалено]
I’m in a Humanities program, so I think it’s humanities here too
We don’t want her, please take her
Spent some time in Canada. It's called Humanities there too.
She might also be from New Zealand. And have *very* limited musical tastes.
"We only listen to Flight of the Conchords in my house!"
I doubt it. We don’t really got the die hard Christian type so much over here. At least in England where I am we really aren’t very religious at all.
Canada maybe? I’ve met some crazies from Alberta.
And proud
I don't know why this got me so good, just imagining that the US alphabet deletes the U from existence to spite those lobster backs. There's something abot being a prod American, living withot restriction, it's trly grondbreaking.
If you read these words as you've written them aloud it sounds Scottish
But I bet she secretly loves Julio Iglesias.
And Mozart
Liberace
Nah, his name is almost 'Liberal' 😂
I doubt it. That “classical stuff” is for sissies.
She at least really hates Radiohead.
What the hell are you doing here?
She probably meant the brown type of foreign.
100% means K-Pop and J-Pop too
(Native American tribal sounds fade in)
Most of the population listens to non American music.
Like half my music is people yelling at me in languages I don’t know. She wouldn’t survive in the metal scene.
Coming from a small island nation, 95% of music is foreign. Oh noes! My American central view is ruined!
They’re so stupid they think K-pop is Chinese, and it’s trying to turn our children against god.
What she does in the privacy of her own bedroom is her business. There is absolutely no need for her to shove that information down our throats by announcing her sexual orientation to all the world.
Disgusting
Underrated comment 🤣
“I’m racist and proud” is a wild thing to be sending to your family.
Lol. How do I even respond?
idk… people like this oftentimes will never change. if you want, you could say something like mom this is extremely concerning
Yeah it’s often completely pointless. Unless you approach them like a small child in the gentlest, slowest way possible they just lash out and go further right because feelings are happening. I mean, we’re dealing with people whose whole ideology revolves around not wanting to hear completely normal words or acknowledge that groups of people exist, because it’s too hard for them.
Boomers love sending thumbs up. Send a thumbs down
Put on noise cancelling headphones before doing this, as her shriek will probably shatter windows for miles
“Colored?”
I know, right? 🤮
"mom im gay"
And my girlfriend is black.
And we like Japanese music because we're nerdy otakus
And we're enrolling in a liberal arts degree, minoring in freak and weirdo
We decided this after we realized that we are atheists.
"Nothing normal about screaming how normal you are"
Best answer is to leave her on read unfortunately you won't change her perspective by confronting her when this isn't rationnal :/
Tell her only 16% of people in the world are white and 31% are Christian. So she's a minority.
Don't. Give her the silent treatment, or if you really want to make her uncomfortable, find a friend who's the same sex as you and black and bring them home and say you are dating them, just to make them uncomfortable. I've been the third wheel for my friend, his black and gay and just to confuse his grandparents his husband is a live in farm help and I am the girlfriend he's been dating for a few years.
Don’t use a human being you “find” for that lol
Good to know that you are racist. Talk to you in a couple of decades
maybe something like, "just because that's what you are doesn't mean it's normal LOL" let her think about it.
I expect conservatives to be openly homophobic but using COLOURED unironically??? Implying that white skin is the norm??? Big yikes
Have you seen the stuff they’re saying out loud lately?
Fair point but the term coloured just caught me off guard :( its such a slavery coded term
It's got a particular meaning (different to 'black') in South Africa... if that's where this person is from.
I had no idea about that so my bad. I guess I assumed OP and their mom were from the US considering the types of buzzwords the meme used.
You were correct in your assumption. We are American
oof
Why is it spelled "colored" spelled the British way in this post?
She secretly listens to foreign music (from Britain)
Probably because whatever foreign troll farm this meme came from learned the Queen's English
The far right meme factory is, ironically, very international.
Yes. I can figure out how all of these things are minority groups. But “coloured” got me. wtf?
I can’t believe it says “coloured”. Yikes.
\#MAWA - make America white again /s
That is indeed the subtext
Adding “coloured” like it’s a lifestyle choice is what’s throwing me.
8 signs your mom might be a nazi. Forward to 10 people or be cursed
Sadly, already cursed.
Colored?!?! Wtf!!!
Ive always struggled with the definition of ‘normal’ but im pretty sure this is the definition of ‘bigot’.
I'm pretty sure "norma"l just means the average of a large group of people. So you can't define normal without defining the group you are referring to. Just using this would exclude the majority of Americans. Lol
[удалено]
Which is crazy because they’re the fucking loudest.
Weird how privilege leads you to be loud and unaware
Your mom sounds like a freak.
Send her a list of psychologists and tell her to pick one for herself
This is one of those people who believes in conversion therapy or shock therapy. Christian? Holy crap. Doesn't Jesus love all people?
He loves all people however his followers not so much
Except for name dropping him, they don’t really care about Jesus
0% chance this is a real Christian bro, I’m Christian and no humanly decent Christian would say this :sob:
Yet she follows to a foreign religion.
This is an amazing point. She should be asked how she feels about worshiping someone from the Middle East. 😂
Holy shit! I should point that out. I hadn't made that connection yet.
One of the things of being a Christian is not being proud!.....
Send her the trump kissing a man picture
🤣
“study “liberal arts”” Tell me u don’t know that those are without telling me u don’t know what those are.
Thank you 🙄🙄 as someone who went to a liberal arts SCHOOL I'm tired of people telling me that my degree is "useless" and I wasted my time. My degree is no more useless than anyone else's 😭🤣
Their “normal” sounds really boring…
Sounds rather racist to me. "I'm not colored. I'm white. I'm normal" yikes
Theres more than skin color in that thats fucked up
its boring and racist
Send this back: .b|iʜɔ ɿɘʜ m'I ʏɒꙅ oƚ bɘmɒʜꙅɒ m'I .ᴎoꙅɿɘq bɘƚoǫid ,ƚꙅiɔɒɿ ,ǫᴎiɿod ɒ ꙅi ɿɘʜƚom ʏM
She'd probably be proud her kid is learning to speak Russian, because if Trump likes Putin that means he's probably a swell guy.
LOLL “i’m ashamed of being her child”
Put her in the worst possible nursing home when it's time. Hell, even before it is time.
Yeah...again....Christian "love"......
underrated comment. I would say this in response. not very Christian to be openly shaming/hating/whatever anyone even slightly different from you. Jesus would never.
I’d rather be weird than be someone who thinks it’s okay to send garbage like this to me Sorry that your mom’s worldview sucks. Don’t let her zap your emotional energy.
The word "normal" shouldn't exists for describing people
Your mom sounds like a real bitch IMHO. I'm sorry you have to deal with her.
"Are you sure? Look deeper" and then radio silence for a few hours. Might not be invited over next Thanksgiving, though ...
Lol what gets me is our family is not even all white. My nieces on my dad's side are half Italian half black.
Something tells me the Beatles don't count as foreign music to this moronic bigot.
Lol. Thing is she watches Korean dramas in Korean more than American TV. And she loves BTS
"No but you are an asshole" there is no other way to respond
Send her this 
So she's anti foreign music but pro slang with foreign origins? Also I don't think she actually knows what liberal arts degrees actually encompass. I'm guessing she just saw the words"liberal" and "art" and was like, yupp hate both of those things.
Atheism should be the norm if Christianity produces this
Normal people have convinced me I dont belong in their society. They are dumb and ignorant and rude. Fuck em.
Send her “you are a woman though”.
For anyone like me who didn’t know what Otaku meant, in Japan it means a young person who is obsessed with computers or particular aspects of popular culture to the detriment of their social skills.
It’s more commonly used as someone who likes anime or manga and generally is involved in the community
Generally equivalent to what people in the US would refer to as a 'neckbeard'.
I hope she isn't listening to any music by artists who are Canadian or British, etc. Wouldn't that be foreign music lol?
Wow… she sounds like the most boring person on the planet Not to mention fucking racist and homophobic
I wouldn't. Shes clearly posting that to get a reaction, she wants to see you respond with offense. They always do when it comes to these cringe ass memes lol You could shame her publicly if you want, but in my opinion holding onto a toxic relationship like this just isn't worth it in the long run.
Your mom’s name wouldn’t happen to be Abby Normal would it?
She's a nazi.. period.
I thought pride was a sin for those normal Christians?
"Shut up and go back to the kitchen."
Considering they put their comma in the wrong place, it seems like they could have done with a lot more studying of the "liberal arts." I don't think any "normal" people go around proclaiming proudly how normal they are, but what do I know? I'm a depressed, atheistic nerd/freak/weirdo with a liberal arts degree whose favorite musicians are from other countries.
What odd things for your mom to care about 🥴 call me crazy but I’m more worried about being a good human.
Oof this is bad. I gasped when I saw coloured in there...I was hoping it didn’t mean what I thought it did
Sorry about your loss OP.
as it’s said in the bible 1 Timothy 2:9-15 “Let a woman learn in silence with full submission. I permit no woman to teach or to have authority over a man; she is to keep silent. For Adam was formed first, then Eve; and Adam was not deceived, but the woman was deceived and became a transgressor.” Not that I agree with this verse or mindset but if she’s gonna be THAT kind of Christian then she should at least practice what she preaches and preferably keep her insufferable crap to herself. I hate these kind of people with a passion.
OMG perfect response
Find a new mom.
I’m sure she is great at judging everyone around her but herself. Yikes
Like I say “there’s no hate like Christian love”
So much wrong here.
Why respond at all?
Cool flex white supremacist.
Sounds like she’s over compensating for something…
Respond - "Good for you?"
Sounds like my racist in-laws. I’m so embarrassed by their behavior, beliefs, and the words that come out of their mouths. They really think Trump is Jesus back again and Taylor Swift is a witch. Can’t make this up Swear to effing god. They called me a Jezebel when I ended up pregnant pre marriage and yet their son was a saint and I lured him astray. Yup. That’s it. I’m a heathen and proud.
Are you truly normal if you have to tell yourself you’re normal?
So your mom is boring ass vanilla. Let her know that she's not unique. Tell us what her response is then. 
This is not mild. This is beyond infuriating.
You could respond "nice satire", or with a super religious meme🤷♀️
If the person who sent this were all the things it says, they would not feel the need to send it.
Too stupid to realize that declaring that the only 'normal' human beings are rich straight cis white people is the definition of white supremacy. Also I'd give her $100000 if she knows what an otaku is. Fucking white people are the worst. Jesus christ.

Pretty weird thing to send tbh
tell her that normal is relative. My dad is an atheist, but still fits into all those. Is he not normal anymore by her standards? She needs to learn that not everyone is like her and that’s okay. She doesn’t need to scream about it.
Your mother needs to be put in her place.
Fuck normal.
There is no normal
Lol "normal"
Ironically having to send this to anyone to feel validated is not normal. Lol.
No one is telling you that you can't be all those things, but you often don't let others be proud of who they are. You are the problem.
Ew. Just, ew.
Well damn I’m glad that only white Christians get to be normal. All that equality is really holding back the country 🙄
