Introducing this little gem who seems to have become a sort of icon to the Minion hatedom

"LEAVE MINIONS ALONE!!!"

 

[Ho Mo for Women]

Minion sounds like minyan, so some Jews might boycott the movie!

Spoiler: Jewish Context

A minyan is 10 adult Jews, and it is required for some of the holiest parts of the Jewish Sabbath service as well as some other rituals. It's pronounced "MIN-yin".

It also sounds like Filet Mignon, so the people at Universal want to EAT JEWS!

Spoiler: My kinda-spergy personal thoughts on the post.

Seriously, what? The minions have been referred to as such since the first movie, because they ARE evil minions (if incompetent). Minions is a good, movie-related, and memorable title, and the target demographic can pronounce it. I can't think of an "equally-catchy and synonymous" title. I don't think that it's anti-semitic at all. I doubt that the "Jewish family friend" exists, or if they do that they said such a stupid thing.

On another note.

Wait- wha?
I guess I'm not up on my latest "Coolest Thing for SJWs to Hate" news, but how and why are they so bothered by Minions? This is pretty much the first time I've ever heard of something like that.

Is this an SJW thing? I thought it was just a lot of people found them really fucking annoying.

It's popular with the younger teens on Tumblr, who are often also SJWs. They get a lot of amusement out of mocking the ridiculous Facebook memes that every aunt in America posts, when they aren't "ironically" running them into the ground.

I'd put my money on the apparent chimpouts over minions being ironic since - hypocritical as it seems - people being ridiculously offended by tiny things is a well-established type of Tumblr humor. The post about minions being offensive to Jewish people seems legit, but external to the craze... God knows what would happen if the hivemind were to discover it.

Jews put a great store in literacy. I think any Jew who actually recognized the term minyan would also know it was entirely different than the word minion.

I actually got a response from the girl that made that post. She seemed to take the whole people laughing at her thing pretty well.

At least she's a good sport about it. Kudos to her.

There is so much wrong in this post. I don't even know where to start.

So exercising is bad for you and being a grotesquely obese lardass is the healthiest thing you can do. Okay, tumblr.

It's Tumblr. Logic died there long ago

Fuckin' lifting community trying to justify their shitty behavior with SJW-mindset and communism.

 

[Adamska]

Reveal and ruin is this site's motto regarding them nowadays; get info on who they are and nail them to the wall with the police for doin' that.

Oh, by the by, they have no excuse whatsoever with the commie approach since all they usually steal is shit they genuinely don't need, with make-up being the big item; thus meaning they are greedy capitalists that need re-education.

"Working Class"? Tumbrs no work and all ass.

 

[MayMay]

Yeah, except it's not the job creators that suffer, it's the employees. If they lose significant money: the lower ones get fired. Or if there's security, then they'll suffer for it.

Either way, the "job creators" aren't the ones that are affected.

The good thing is that they won't be able to leave their basements, so there's no risk of them being an eyesore for the rest of us.
(Unless they fancies themselves Youtube stars like the Slaton sisters.)

A lot of Tumblr users really like communism. At first I thought it was ironic, but nope, these guys seem to actually support an ideology that ended up causing the deaths of millions of people. Capitalism has many flaws, but it doesn't make entire countries fall apart.

Like Phil, they don't realize it would involve working, and that they'd be punished if they didn't do whatever shit job the state doled out for them.

I think it started as ironic communism just as an expression of frustration with capitalism, and then shit got out of hand.

That seems to be a running theme with Tumblr.

Come to think of it, a lot of things on the Internet start as irony and then after getting taken seriously by autists, morph into something utterly horrible.
