Couldn’t you just tell a blind girl the Barbie is blind too?

I mean, by the nature of the thing, she can’t see it.

Right?

The Guardian:

Six decades after the original Barbie hit shelves, Mattel is launching its first blind Barbie doll in an effort to make its range more inclusive.

The US toymaker said the doll, which is now available online and instore, has been created in a bid to make blind and low-vision children more represented within society.

In a statement, Krista Berger, the senior vice-president of Barbie and the global head of dolls, said: “We recognise that Barbie is much more than just a doll; she represents self-expression and can create a sense of belonging.”

The company has worked with the American Foundation for the Blind to ensure that everything from the doll’s eyes to its clothing accurately depict people with blindness and low vision.

The doll holds a white and red cane with a marshmallow tip while its eye gaze faces slightly up and out to “accurately reflect the sometimes-distinct eye gaze of a blind individual”.

But… the blind child can’t see that?

Are the toys meant for non-blind children? Why would a little girl with sight want a blind doll?

In addition to its first blind Barbie, Mattel has also partnered with the American organisation the National Down Syndrome Society to launch its first black doll with Down’s syndrome.

That’s gross.

Who is asking for this?

Well, this is just sad.

I don’t have any desire to mock or insult literal retards.

But there’s a reason they don’t have jobs.

This is clearly just an exploitation of the retards, as this company just bullies people into thinking they are bad people if they don’t eat at the retard cafe.

New York Post:

“I want to have a job like you.”

French entrepreneur Yann Bucaille-Lanrezac remembers the day he met Theodore, a young boy on the autism spectrum, during a cruise for an organization he created for those with special needs.

“He came to me and he said, ‘I heard that you are a boss, can you give me a job?’ ” Bucaille-Lanrezac told The Post.

When Bucaille-Lanrezac told Theodore he didn’t have a job, the boy responded, “No, you don’t understand. I know I have a disability that can be useful. I want to have a job like you.”

Bucaille-Lanrezac began to realize that the best charity wasn’t simply to take these people on a boat.

That memory led Bucaille-Lanrezac to open Café Joyeux, a French family of inclusive café-restaurants that solely recruits individuals with cognitive and intellectual disabilities, giving opportunities to those who otherwise might not have them.

“They are capable. We want to show to the world that it’s possible,” he told The Post.

“It’s to have them be part of society, be part of the game, have a role to play.”

The Upper East Side cafe opened Thursday — a symbolic day as it also happens to be World Down Syndrome Day.

Over 7 million Americans have mental or cognitive disabilities, and 80% of them are unemployed — but Bucaille-Lanrezac hopes to change that.

I can tell you this: I’m not going to this retard cafe.

This man literally can’t not open his mouth and say something un-PC. This was even back in the days when he was making fun of OJ – a big nono – and it cost him a comedy career.

The Wrap:

The comedian is facing a second round of backlash this week — this time for referring to a genetic disorder to emphasize a point about his support of the #MeToo movement.

“You’d have to have Down Syndrome to not feel sorry for — of course, #MeToo is what you want for your daughters. And you want that to be the future world,” Macdonald told Howard Stern on Wednesday.

Stop. That’s literally it. This is just another variant of the whole R-word made-up controversy.

“@normmacdonald you made fun of people with Downs Syndrome, and the me too movement?,” noted one detractor, adding, “I’ve never cared for your attempt at humor. Always thought you just got lucky somewhere. Now I just find you ignorant and vile. You don’t seem very bright either, so I’ll help you – you suck.”

Another observer offered an even more blunt assessment: “This clueless mother f—er just tried to say his #MeToo comments were misconstrued by making a Downs Syndrome joke. Are you f—ing serious @normmacdonald ?”

“People with downs syndrome are beautiful and should not be dragged into any conversation in a negative light! Norm Macdonald needs to sit down (in the corner) with his straight, white, male privilege! #ByeGirl,” tweeted another.

These people talk like a caricature of a /pol/ user imitating a Tumblr user.

Seriously, I remember those halcyon days. When this kind of stuff was confined to the internet and to humanities departments at unis. Now, it seems to be everywhere. And if even I’m struggling to believe that the Freak Mafia is so real and so out of control, I can only imagine what Boomers are feeling.

And Norm has a history of saying that shit’s retarded.

And then they started tightening the screws.

The comments were met with intense backlash on social media, leading to his Tuesday appearance on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” being canceled just moments before it was scheduled to begin.

“[Fallon] was very broken up about it. And he said ‘I don’t know what to do. And I said ‘Should I not do the show?’” Macdonald told Stern. The comedian said Fallon told him he was getting “pressure from so many people” and senior producers were crying over Macdonald’s appearance.

Ultimately, Fallon told him that doing the segment so soon after the comments were published would “hurt the show,” Macdonald said. “And I said, ‘Jimmy I don’t want to hurt your show. That is the last thing I want to do.’”

Macdonald has since apologized for the comments in a tweet.

Is this actually a… wait for it… a smiting?

ZAP!!

Nah, jokes aside. Feels bad for Norm. He’s cool.

Former friends and acquaintances of the New Jersey lesbian waitress who claimed she was stiffed on a tip because she was gay, say that evidence Dayna Morales made up the whole story isn’t surprising: she has a long history of fabricating similar, and even more elaborate, stories about herself.

“She lies about everything,” said Samantha Reidy, former lesbian partner of Morales, to The Journal News.

Morales claimed that a couple she served handed her a receipt with no tip and a scribbled note which said, “I’m sorry but I cannot tip because I do not agree with your lifestyle and how you live your life.” She posted a photo of the receipt to a gay-themed Facebook page, and it was picked up by the media, after which her story went viral.

Morales received a flood of support, including up to $3,000 cash that she said would be donated to Wounded Warrior Project.

But Morales’ story began to unravel when the couple, recognizing the much-publicized restaurant receipt as their own, came forward with evidence that they had left a tip, and saying they had left no such note. They produced a credit card statement that appeared to validate the story, showing the cost of the meal plus a 20 percent tip.

Former co-workers and friends have now come forward with accounts of the elaborate lies that they say Morales tells to get attention and sympathy.

Morales’ alleged stories include telling co-workers that she had shaved her head in preparation for her upcoming brain-cancer treatment, reported NBC 4 New York. Former co-worker Jacqie Fitzpatrick said that instead of getting any treatment, Morales leaned on the story to get co-workers at a Cheesecake Factory in Nyack, N.Y. to perform her responsibilities.

Morales allegedly told co-workers from a daycare that Superstorm Sandy had hurled a boat through her living room wall, reported The Journal News. But when friends investigated, they found no such damage.

“Every story she comes up with has a lie,” said Julie Howat, a former acquaintance of Morales

Howat related how Morales loved to tell people her war story, where as a Marine she said she was sent to Afghanistan and survived an explosion that killed her entire platoon, leaving her the sole survivor.

But spokesman for the Marines, Major Shawn Haney, said in an email to The Journal News that while Morales did serve in the Marine Reserve Corps, she was dishonorably discharged in May after not showing up for drills.

“There is no indication of combat service in Iraq or Afghanistan,” he wrote.

Another acquaintance told The Daily Caller News Foundation that Morales once related how her dad raped her and got her pregnant. When no child appeared, Morales allegedly said that cervical cancer had infected the baby and killed him.

Morales has denied fabricating the writing on the receipt, saying she does not know how it appeared.

LifeSiteNews.com reported on Tuesday a growing list of hate-crime hoaxes perpetrated by the LGBT movement on a populace sympathetic to the rally cry of “homophobia” and “discrimination”.

The Gallop Asian Bistro, which at first defended Morales, is now running its own investigation.

Kanye West be tryin get at dat Jew gold, sos hees niggas be gettin dat kanda papah. It’s what he’s talking about.

Kanye West, a weird black known for his unintelligible ranting, recently made some statements which upset the Jews, but left everyone else chucking in a confused manner.

West, who has been widely suspected of having Down’s Syndrome, said that the reason that Obama can’t get any money is because he black people are not successful, because they don’t have connections because there are no successful black people.

Or he said something like that.  I dunno.  Watch the clip.

“Let me tell you something about George Bush and oil money, and Obama and no money. People want to say Obama can’t make these moves, or he’s not executing. That’s because he ain’t got those connections. Black people don’t have the same level of connections as Jewish people. Black people don’t have the same connections as oil people. You know we don’t know nobody that got a nice house. You know we don’t know nobody with paper like that, that we can go to when we’re down.”

Kanye West and Kim Kardashian.

The Jews are selling this figure, as well as other blacks and degenerates, as role models for your children, White Man.
