The following typical threads that plague martial arts sites will get moved here if not just deleted: 1 - My style is better than Your style" - 2 - "Internal & External" - 3 - Personal attacks - 4 - Threads that start well, but degenerate into a spiral of nonsense.

I'm trying to figure out whether this is microaggression or dog whistling.

I define internal martial art as unusual muscle recruitment and leave it at that. If my definition is incomplete, at least it is correct so far as it goes.

Microagression? That's a pc term. Tsk, tsk, tsk :) I would love to know where that advert went up. I'm not sure that having a blonde woman eating crackers and cheese is much different than most advertisement for "crackers."

Ya know what would be funnier? If Ben Carson's face was on that "love cheese" advert.

Judging by the cheese brands and price signage in the image I'd say it's in New Zealand, in a New World supermarket. No one calls white people crackers in NZ, the term would be honkey or palangi depending on if you were talking to a Maori or an Islander (Tongan, Samoan etc...). But we do know that cracker can be used in the US as a term for white people, so it was likely a play on words.

Dr. Rob deserves a Special Merit Badge [and a crate of crackers at the very least] for posting this image which has warmed the cockles of my heart [among other parts of me] since I first saw it!

Yeah, it's probably not even USAmerican. Could be Canadian, though.
