[QUOTE=JesusKitty;27808474]This is the stupidest thing I've ever heard.[/QUOTE] I want to clarify that I rated you agree purely on the premise that it's a really stupid thing to say, but not the stupidest thing I've heard.
[QUOTE=JesusKitty;27808474]This is the stupidest thing I've ever heard.[/QUOTE] And conveniently, you can't give a reason for it, right? :allears: If you support centuries of white American culture, why does even a month of black American culture bother you so much?
[QUOTE=Xolo;27808467]Disliking is a weasel word for hating[/QUOTE] Or you're trying to make it seem like I'm a horrible person for not having the same views and ideals as you. But behind closed doors, no one is perfect. Good job on trying to hide that.
[QUOTE=thisispain;27808481]great, a semantic argument[/QUOTE] "see I'm only calling for the DEATH of all jews not genocide"
[QUOTE=Xolo;27808423]"If a race, as a collective whole, wants for there to be a month celebrating their freedom from oppression, then I say let them have it." Sorry, I guess my black friends missed the last international Black Meeting for the Continuation of Black History Month.[/QUOTE] okay you made your point, black people are not a collective and i agree with you but there is a black culture and black history month does have a significant effect on black culture, even if not all black people abide by what black culture dictates
[QUOTE=Badal;27807396][media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GeixtYS-P3s[/media] /thread[/QUOTE] The beauty of this is that no soccer mom can call him out for "hating black people" because he IS black.
[QUOTE=Esteam;27808495]Or you're trying to make it seem like I'm a horrible person for not having the same views and ideals as you. But behind closed doors, no one is perfect. Good job on trying to hide that.[/QUOTE] I'm not calling you a horrible person, or saying I'm any better than you, I'm just saying you're a racist.
We don't celebrate black history month in sweden because we lack black people to celebrate... [editline]2nd February 2011[/editline] We might be racist though but I don't know.
Speaking out against the appreciation and discussion of blacks is racist? How conveniently stupid, I can't even make up a rebutment for that.
[QUOTE=Esteam;27808495]Or you're trying to make it seem like I'm a horrible person for not having the same views and ideals as you. But behind closed doors, no one is perfect. Good job on trying to hide that.[/QUOTE] What the fuck are you going on about? You're a racist, and you're being called out on it. Enough.
[QUOTE=Esteam;27808495]Or you're trying to make it seem like I'm a horrible person for not having the same views and ideals as you.[/QUOTE] no i'm pretty sure he's calling you dumb in a nice way because it's pretty stupid to dislike anything based on something as vague as a skin colour if you dislike bill cosby, there's something wrong with you
[QUOTE=Leo Leonardo;27808500]The beauty of this is that no soccer mom can call him out for "hating black people" because he IS black.[/QUOTE] I'm not white and I'm not a soccer mom and I think Morgan Freeman totally fucked up on that one. One rich black man does not magically become the spokesman (and evidence) for a post-racial America no matter how many white boys on the internet want to believe it to be true.
[QUOTE=Esteam;27808521]Speaking out against the appreciation and discussion of blacks is racist? [/QUOTE] well you can call it what you want it's still dumb
[QUOTE=Xolo;27808502]I'm not calling you a horrible person, or saying I'm any better than you, I'm just saying you're a racist.[/QUOTE] Well as long as you're not saying you're better than me, you're not saying I'm a horrible person, but you're saying I'm racist. :downs:
"these guys have more melanin than us, let's hate them based purely on outdated, ridiculous stereotypes" summary of racist thought process
[QUOTE=Mane;27808531]I'm not white and I'm not a soccer mom and I think Morgan Freeman totally fucked up on that one. One rich black man does not magically become the spokesman (and evidence) for a post-racial America no matter how many white boys on the internet want to believe it to be true.[/QUOTE] woah we are talking about god here let's calm down
1:04 AM - TicTac: its a white out on the first day of black history month
[QUOTE=Esteam;27808540]Well as long as you're not saying you're better than me, you're not saying I'm a horrible person, but you're saying I'm racist. :downs:[/QUOTE] I'm not going to make a moral judgement on you personally (society, as a whole, does rather dislike racists, however)
[QUOTE=Xolo;27808423]"If a race, as a collective whole, wants for there to be a month celebrating their freedom from oppression, then I say let them have it." Sorry, I guess my black friends missed the last international Black Meeting for the Continuation of Black History Month.[/QUOTE] Also, I'm a little late on this, but I meant that it was established by a black people, and black people supported it.
[QUOTE=Esteam;27808521]Speaking out against the appreciation and discussion of blacks is racist? How conveniently stupid, I can't even make up a rebutment for that.[/QUOTE] That's not even what I said! Is that the best straw man you got?
[QUOTE=Funktastic Dog;27808527]What the fuck are you going on about? You're a racist, and you're being called out on it. Enough.[/QUOTE] Oh, you can't even be civil about it and explain why I'm racist? I pointed out my views before this started, and you're just blowing it straight out of proportion.
[QUOTE=Funktastic Dog;27808562]Also, I'm a little late on this, but I meant that it was established by a black people, and black people supported it.[/QUOTE] OK, but a group of black people isn't the same thing as the entire race of black people.
[QUOTE=Esteam;27808571]Oh, you can't even be civil about it and explain why I'm racist? I pointed out my views before this started, and you're just blowing it straight out of proportion.[/QUOTE] "I dislike black people"
[QUOTE=Esteam;27808540]Well as long as you're not saying you're better than me, you're not saying I'm a horrible person, but you're saying I'm racist. :downs:[/QUOTE] [i]I'm[/i] saying you're a horrible person though :downs:
[QUOTE=Esteam;27808571]Oh, you can't even be civil about it and explain why I'm racist? I pointed out my views before this started, and you're just blowing it straight out of proportion.[/QUOTE] We did, man. You fit into the definition we agreed upon of "racist"
[QUOTE=Esteam;27808571]Oh, you can't even be civil about it and explain why I'm racist? I pointed out my views before this started, and you're just blowing it straight out of proportion.[/QUOTE] okay you're not a racist you are a bigot case closed thank you come again [editline]1st February 2011[/editline] or you are a troll, which in case you are failing to deliver any kind of humour to anyone
[QUOTE=Xolo;27808585]We did, man. You fit into the definition we agreed upon of "racist"[/QUOTE] Oh, well as long as I fit into [i]your[/i] definition of racist, it's alright then. Not bias or anything. It's okay.
[QUOTE=Xolo;27808576]OK, but a group of black people isn't the same thing as the entire race of black people.[/QUOTE] When I said as a collective whole, I meant that most black people supported it. Collective whole just sounds fancier.
Esteam did you mean that you like black people but don't like black people?
[QUOTE=Esteam;27808602]Oh, well as long as I fit into [i]your[/i] definition of racist, it's alright then. Not bias or anything. It's okay.[/QUOTE] Okay, [i]society's[/i] definition of racist. Saying that society is bias is just uh I don't know if there's a term for that kind of fallacy
