Question of the day, July 20

Why does the Philadelphia Museum of art give a 90% discount if you have a Snap card?? Why not a discount for people who produce something?

From their website, “Present your Pennsylvania ACCESS/EBT card and receive general admission for up to four adults at $2 each. Children 12 and under are free. (ACCESS/EBT card along with a photo ID required.) Not valid for special exhibitions, programs, or with any other offers or group rates. On-site only. ACCESS Admission is a citywide initiative led by Art-Reach.”

Don’t worry Mike. It’s not really a discount. The other $18 is being taken from your paycheck in the form of taxes and paid to the Art Museum to make up the difference.

I understand they actually had a SNAP card visitor in 2013 who came in to get out of the rain.

Your thought process will land you in a FEMA Camp.

They need to save their money for their ESPN bill. Just think if they actually are discounting the admission, Admin. That means they’re losing tens of dollars each year.

Back in PA ,Wyoming Mike , have you been to the museum? Our is it just your day to take cheap shots at poor people who are victims of your white privilege.Man , the mico- aggression is just oozing from your position of moral superiority . You should feel shame and guilt for being white. Now apologize and do repentance.

During a riot or other public disturbance — such as when TSHTF — a museum is second safest place in the city (after the library). I mean, seriously, how many colored folk actually go to a museum??

BB, blow me. Was a member back in the day. Now I have an aversion to regular trips to the city.

Doesn’t everyone go to the Art Museum to buy their meth?

The FSA is truly the group with privilege, reduced entrance fees, free coats for the children at Target or Walmart for the chilruns in the winter, in summer bus loads from the “hood” are brought to our super fancy county swimming pool/park with no admission, add in the usual free everything else we usually list . Now tell me they aren’t privileged!

The producers better not hold their breath to get reduced/free ride on anything. I figure all the freeshitters are about a hair away from getting a free car, so don’t let this reduced entry fee to the museum get your briefs in a bundle. Save your ire for what is still to come Mike.

ACCESS/EBT card along with a photo ID required…….

Wait, isn’t the photo ID just another way to disenfranchise particular groups of people, whether by racial designation, ethnic origin, for partisan reasons or just another way to keep the black man dumbed down by keeping him out of a place of learning.

Sumbody gets me eric holder or barack or mooshell or sharpton or msnbc…..dis be nuwz.

Why should anyone work? Why should anyone start a business? Why should anyone give a flying fuck about any damn thing?

The fucking motherfuckers have this shit down to a motherfucking science – they create more disincentive to be productive every motherfucking day. It makes me crazy, and I do not need any more help with that – that is why God made women.

Fuck all those fucking fucks.

Imagine you’re the director of that place. You are excruciatingly “progressive” in your every thought, word and deed. And your job, your life, your whole existence is built on this towering monument to Whiteness with a capital ‘W’. In the current racial climate maybe you feel a little…exposed, particularly there in the City of Bruthaz. So you think, “Here’s an idea! How ’bout we give ’em two dollar admission to the Citadel of Whiteness?! They’ll love us for it! Sure! Come on in! Tyesha! Shittavius! Great to see you! And you brought the little ones! Awwwwsome! Ah, can you tell them not to touch the Monet?! OUCH! Why’d you do that?!!! Ow! Stop punching me!!! Please!!!!! AAAAAAAHHHH!!!!!!”
