HEY STRING, YOU SUCK!

[irul&ublo]

I just hate brett and iceman. Keep it simple.

Don't hate the retarded....make fun of them, sure, but no hate.

[Pow4Brains]

[natty dread]

I just think it says more to ignore stupid crap like that rather than start a new thread to give it the kind of attention the poster is likely after.

I would never fault anyone for calling a person on his racist beliefs or behavior, but I actually agree with this part.
Even though I'm bumping this thread!
Irul is right on, it's a lot more fun and takes more creativity to clown them!

[Dirty Hoar]

I watch it all the time but I'm not sure what episode my comment relates to. Which one?

I just feel people tend to pull the race card way too much and from experience the people who tend to pull it have some racist issues themselves that they don't realize. The picture most likely was meant to be racist and I don't condone that but I think you know what I mean.

For example... I think bklyntrayc is a good example of someone who pulls out the race card quite often and in my opinion too much. I'm sure bklyntrayc is a great person and I absolutely have nothing against her what so ever. I just picked her as an example because this is something I've thought about in the past over other comments.

I know this is going to bite me in the ass now... please be gentle.

[PNWbrit]

The picture was offensive and posted completely out of left field in a thread that had achieved almost terminal velocity.

Worthy call out.

[leroy jenkins]

What don`t you understand about racism?

I don't fucking see it. It shows a guy with a mcdonalds cup who has enjoyed a lot of watermelon. He is obviously loving it.

Ok, its part of the african american stereotype that they like watermelon, but fuck, I just think the guy happens to be black, I don't see the picture making fun of him at all.

If he was white and wearing a college sweatshirt you guys wouldn't be saying "now we can't make fun of frat boys for eating vodka soaked watermelon can we?"

fuck, get over yourselves.


EDIT: I don't really think the pic was funny or relevent at all, a pretty dumb post, but rascist? thats jumping to conclusions.

its the bull dyke lesbians that piss me off. If you are going to be a clam jouster, you need to be hot

Wow...you are SO fucked in your monkey ass for that one. Gentle would be rubbing it with turpentine before ass raping you. How is standing up for yourself pulling ANY card?

I hope Trayc tears you a new one.

The point is, it wouldn't have been made and widely posted on the internet if it was a white frat boy. I'll admit that I just sped past the picture and didn't give it a thought, but you have to be really ignorant to not see it as racist.

wow, another comment out of left field. It's really easy to criticize others, but try walking a mile in their shoes before you spout stupid shit on an internet message board.

[stump832]

Is this thread better or worse than the whole fucking debacle with the stolen picture?

(1) This thread is retarded.
(2) The other thread is completely unfunny, and no more than 5 original or funny thoughts in it, and those 5 were all mine.

Mr. GMAT says the answer is E - neither (1) nor (2) are sufficient to answer the question.

Not jumping to conclusions,just stating the obvious.Your definition of racism is different than mine.

[Dirty Hoar]

I said what I said and you guys can read into anyway you want. There is no reason Tracy should be upset with me except for calling her out in my example. But like I said, it was just an example of my observation. It's my opinion and whether it's right or wrong I stand by it. I'm surely not attacking anyone.

So what, do I have a right to be pissed of if a black guy calls me a cracker or a honkey? Cus I've heard black people say that thinking it was funny and not rascist. I didn't really give a shit because its just one of many kinds of ignorant hypocritical things people say, but you can bet if I said something back to him of the same sort he'd call me a rascist. Somehow though, its ok, because I was never a slave or "opressed" or anything. Well fuck, noone alive today was a slave either.

Granted, it probably was meant to br rascist, but just fucking get over it. No ones whipping you or has you in shackles or anything.

[twodogs]

This thread is useless.

Agreed. Fucking relax people.
Wow...
Personally, I laughed at the pic (sue me) just like I know all you do-gooders have laughed at totally inappropriate pics in the past as well. The fact that he was black had nothing to do with why I found humor in it either. A guy passed out on watermelon...That's fuckin' funny. (Thank God it was a guy, if it were a woman I suppose it would've been sexist too, eh?)
Get over it.
Next thread.

[willywhit]

good heavens ! I'm so glad they took that Chapelle guy off TV.
It was so offensive how he always made fun of white people.

I'm not oppressed much, and personally I would not have chosen to do this callout. I do think lots of shit that's offensive is posted on the web, and just like in non-internet life, you pick and choose your battles. So, yeah, someone calling you names with racist intent may give you a right to be pissed off, but you may think it isn't worth the battle. It's a personal decision we all have to make.

That having been said, belittling someone for making that callout on something that is racist is out of line, IMO. And until you walk a mile in their shoes, it's kind of hard to judge where the line they draw should be. If it bothers them enough that thety think it's a worthy battle, that's their choice. I may choose not to go out of my way to support their choice, but I sure as fuck wouldn't come in here and belittle them for making that choice.

Actually my posts in this thread haven't said a word about racism. But let me fix that:

The picture is racist. Why? BECAUSE I SAID SO! String had to be called out for posting it. Why? BECAUSE I FELT LIKE IT!

BWWAHAHAHAHHAAAA I AM QUEEN OF THE WORLD TODAY!!!! yeah yeah yeah ya racist fools get the hell off my worldinformationwidesuperinterwebnetway. MMMWHWAHAHAHAHAH!!!

no idea if this is the right place for this, but i read it a couple days ago and it really made a strong impression on me. i consider myself to be very knowledgeable about history but this was something i had never heard about before.

Black German Holocaust Victims
So much of our history is lost to us because we often don't write the history books, don't film the documentaries, or don't pass the accounts down from generation to generation. One documentary now touring the film festival circuit, telling us to "Always Remember" is " Black Survivors ofthe Holocaust" (1997). Outside the U.S., the film isentitled "Hitler's Forgotten Victims" (Afro-Wisdom Productions). It codifies another dimension to the "Never Forget" Holocaust story - our dimension.

Did you know that in the 1920s, there were 24,000 Blacks living in Germany? Neither did I. Here's how it happened, and how many of them were eventually caught unawares by the events of the Holocaust.

Like most West European nations, Germany established colonies in Africa in the late 1800s in what later became Togo, Cameroon, SPAN Namibia, and Tanzania. German genetic experiments began there, most notably involving prisoners taken from the 1904 Heroro Massacre that left 60,000 Africans dead, following a 4-year revolt against German colonisation. After the shellacking Germany received in World War I, it was stripped of its African colonies in 1918.

As a spoil of war, the French were allowed to occupy Germany in the Rhineland - a bitter piece of real estate that has gone back and forth between the two nations for centuries. The French willfully deployed their own colonised African soldiers as the occupying force. Germans viewed this as the final insult of World War I, and, soon thereafter, 92% of them voted in the Nazi party.

Hundreds of the African Rhineland-based soldiers intermarried with German women and raised their children as Black Germans. In Mein Kampf, Hitler wrote about his plans for these "Rhineland Bastards". When he came to power, one of his first directives was aimed at these mixed-race children. Underscoring Hitler's obsession with racial purity, by 1937, every identified mixed-race child in the Rhineland had been forcibly sterilized, in order to prevent further "race polluting", as Hitler termed it.

Hans Hauck, a Black Holocaust survivor and a victim of Hitler's mandatory sterilisation program, explained in the film "Hitler's Forgotten Victims" that, when he was forced to undergo sterilisation as a teenager, he was given no anaesthetic. Once he received his sterilisation certificate, he was "free to go", so long as he agreed to have no sexual relations whatsoever with Germans.

Although most Black Germans attempted to escape their fatherland, heading for France where people like Josephine Baker were steadily aiding and supporting the French Underground, many still encountered problems elsewhere. Nations shut their doors to Germans, including the Black ones. Some Black Germans were able to eke out a living during Hitler's reign of terror by performing in Vaudeville shows, but many Blacks, steadfast in their belief that they were German first, Black second, opted to remain in Germany. Some fought with the Nazis (a few even became Lutwaffe pilots)!

Unfortunately, many Black Germans were arrested, charged with treason, and shipped in cattle cars to concentration camps. Often these trains were so packed with people and (equipped with no bathroom facilities or food), that, after the four-day journey, box car doors were opened to piles of the dead and dying. Once inside the concentration camps, Blacks were given the worst jobs conceivable. Some Black American soldiers, who were captured and held as prisoners of war, recounted that, while they were being starved and forced into dangerous labour (violating the Geneva Convention), they were still better off than Black German concentration camp detainees, who were forced to do the unthinkable-man the crematoriums and work in labs where genetic experiments were being conducted. As a final sacrifice, these Blacks were killed every three months so that they would never be able to reveal the inner workings of the "Final Solution".

In every story of Black oppression, no matter how we were enslaved, shackled, or beaten, we always found a way to survive and to rescue others. As a case in point, consider Johnny Voste, a Belgian resistance fighter who was arrested in 1942 for alleged sabotage and then shipped to Dachau. One of his jobs was stacking vitamin crates. Risking his own life, he distributed hundreds of vitamins to camp detainees, which saved the lives of many who were starving, weak, and ill-conditions exacerbated by extreme vitamin deficiencies. His motto was "No, you can't have my life; I will fight for it."

According to Essex University's Delroy Constantine-Simms*, there were Black Germans who resisted Nazi Germany, such as Lari Gilges, who founded the Northwest Rann - an organisation of entertainers that fought the Nazis in his home town of Dusseldorf - and who was murdered by the SS in 1933, the year that Hitler came into power.

Little information remains about the numbers of Black Germans held in the camps or killed under the Nazi regime. Some victims of the Nazi sterilisation project and Black survivors of the Holocaust are still alive and telling their story in films such as "Black Survivors of the Nazi Holocaust", but they must also speak out for justice, not just history.

Unlike Jews (in Israel and in Germany), Black Germans receive no war reparations because their German citizenship was revoked (even though they were German-born). The only pension they get is from those of us who are willing to tell the world their stories and continue their battle for recognition and compensation.

After the war, scores of Blacks who had somehow managed to survive the Nazi regime, were rounded up and tried as war criminals. Talk about the final insult! There are thousands of Black Holocaust stories, from the triangle trade, to slavery in America, to the gas ovens in Germany. We often shy away from hearing about our historical past because so much of it is painful; however, we are in this struggle together for rights, dignity, and, yes, reparations for wrongs done to us through the centuries. We need to always remember so that we can take steps to ensure that these atrocities never happen again.

Dear God,
Please let the season get underway soon. The Maggots are restless and have turned on each other. Today's posts consist mostly of badgering and shit talking (can you say "shit" to God?) towards one another...Please send the cold smoke and make it stop. Please.

That's the spirit - the best way to overcome racism is to laugh WITH people and AT yourself, IMHO.

Fuel: Had the races been reversed in the Chapelle show that program would never have aired. Also, Jamie Foxx would never have made a dime as a white man picking on the foibles of the rhythm having perma-tanned.

Racism is played - Sexism on the other hand has some real staying power!

[danhikeski]

damn Jews and their illumanati conspiricy to control the banking system and the media..........

this is the only thing that is racist on this thread that i saw (only read first page) but i'm hoping that it's a joke?
