This is offensive.

The fact it's thought of as okay around here by some because you're a liberal is bizarre. A bunch of woke white people making racial jokes....#Merica

You lose all your credibility when you do this over and over. You wouldn't do that in front of people of color, but you do here because whiteness protects whiteness so you feel safe to push the limits with your words.

And after reading your post I couldn't help but remember Illi calling ousdahl out for being racist, when ousdahl, like me when I say "knee-grow Muslim from Kenya", is actually making fun of the right wingers who made Obama's race, his blackness, such a thing. We're ridiculing the racists.

I have had multiple conversations with persons of color about the absurdly blatant racism that Obama encountered and about how certain folks in this country could never see him as anything more than "that negrow mooslim". And to educate you, it is intentionally written misspelled in that ignorant manner to intentionally display how ignorant I feel that people who genuinelt referred to him as that are.

This has all been explained to you cou tless times yet you either cannot understand it or are deliberately choosing to ignore it. Either way, there's no point trying to educate you any further on it.

I just told you I get it...I get what "you're" doing....what I'm telling you is that how you're doing is wrong. Especially to this audience.

Maybe it's you who doesn't get it?

You seem to be the only member of this audience with the problem. Maybe he would have been better to put that statement in quotes to further highlight that it was an opinion of others and not of his but I personally understood immediately what his intentions were without them.

I know "what" you're doing, but "how" you're doing it matters.

And the fact you would NEVER say some shit like that in front of black people leads me to believe you know that, but do it here because it's a bunch of white people. That's not good.

As Obama would say "that's not activism".

IllinoisJayhawk wrote: ↑Thu Oct 31, 2019 12:44 pm Point out racism. Call it out. Shame republicans. I'm all for it....but do it tastefully. When you start going the route of racial slurs, even if (some) republicans did it first, it quickly can become offensive. In general, if you're white, just don't use racial slurs.

actually, I may not hesitate to say some shit like that in front of black people, if it was part of an already cheeky dialogue, and done in a way to ridicule racists, not directed negatively at the black people. You know - humor!

sadly, it seems too many folks have no sense of it.

why are there so few comedians on the right?

oh, and you think count was trying to be funny about JEWS?

Maybe because all the rest of you are liberals so you think the comedy routine is funny. Makes you feel like you're making a difference by being messageboard activists (on a board with 24 people, all of whom are white).

It's so funny, the people so offended by nearly everything, can't accept when something they're doing is offensive. Words matter.

You're right words do matter but only if the person reading them takes the time to understand them. If you dont make the effort to understand them and instead fail miserably at any semblance of critical reading becayse you're instead crafting your attempt at a witty retort before you even reach the end of the sentence then it doesn't matter what words were written because you're ignoring it anyways.

Hard to believe you got fired. I mean, other than being in your 30s, having roommate(s), and constantly needing/soliciting the advice of strangers on a message board to maneuver thru life, you sure do seem to have it all together.
