Brooklyn hipsters get specialized lingo for ‘Negro’.

Gawker has the details on one of those end of civilization as RISD grads know it pieces on the opening of the new Target. If you were wondering if the thousands of liberal arts education dollars spent enlightening suburban kids to the plight of the black man had any beneficial effect, read no further:

I was accidentally wearing my ‘defend brooklyn’ shirt which is about police brutality but aparently it was read as an anti-gentrification statement despite… once this joint is open to masses of brooklyn trash who make Pathmark unusable, I will never again be able to admire the rows and rows of blue greeting cards and purchase them with matching envelopes or peruse the aisles of Gatorade without witnessing parents beat their children in the middle

Notice how she (helpfully pictured so you can stay away from her at the next Polyphronic Spree show) cleverly says ‘brooklyn trash’ so we won’t think she is being race specific. Sure honey, we were completely fooled by that one. Too bad no one beat you (or didn’t beat you enough) so if you couldn’t at least demonstrate a whit of intelligence, you might at least have the good sense to keep your mouth shut.
