maybe its just me, but i don't think this page is about about humour, or about people that are concerned or engaged about life, or about having a good laugh about themselves (which i think is essential in any political concern - at least as a starting point)
Yeah, that page is really lame and fucked up. As most here know, a much more effective use of humor and satire directed at white people, but in an anti-racist context is: http://www.blackpeopleloveus.com This is an *excellent* example of using cyberspace and new media not for the purpose of perpetuating real-life racism, as tends to be done in almost *every* virtual sphere, but as a way of interrupting the normal operation of the Matrix. This site is particularly important, most specifically because of it's longevity, which is unique to the medium, as similar efforts in print, TV, or radio have tended to be more ephemeral. This sets it apart from say, a comedy sketch on late night TV, which people laugh about but then forget, or remember but then can't fully convey the impact to another person. With the web, all you need do is pass along the URL to those who are in need of the Red Pill. For those of you who are new media professors, this should be exhibit number one with your students.
