Hey, remember Micro Machines? They were little teensy toys
that had someone reading their ad copy really fast in the commercials. But they
weren’t aggressive enough for everyone, and that’s why there’s the new
Microaggression Machines: the toy cars that teach kids about microaggression!
Yes, actually, when you think about it, toy cars are really
a microaggression about male childhood stereotypes anyway, so what better way
to illustrate microaggression anyway than to use the old “boys like cars” trope?
Plus, toy cars are also a microaggression about how girls aren’t usually
supposed to like playing with boys’ toys, but rather with girly dolls, thus
reinforcing gender roles and societal expectations based upon bigoted sexist
stereotypes. I guess maybe there should be a Microaggressions Machines doll
too, but it would have to be a robot secretly under the skin, because otherwise
it wouldn’t be a machine (unless the whole point would be that the sexist
stereotypes of women portrayed in girls’ dolls, such as Barbie, are a
microaggression towards females in general, and young girls specifically).
Models include:
The Asian Smart-Mobile
The Caucasian Can’t-Dance-Mobile
Etc.
These are Micro Machines:
(BTW: This is just a joke. Nobody makes Microaggression Machines… yet!)
