Wasn't the whole reason Europeans moved to America because they were being persecuted because of their religion? Well the pilgrims anyway.

But cracker is racist terminology. Your logic is so stupid it's pathetic.

Religion =/= race, what is your point again?
What does cracker mean? What MAKES it racist?

The reason ****** is a hurtful word is because of the time period it went along with.
People don't get worked up over words that mean nothing.

I would say that you're logic is stupid, but you really don't have any.

New Zealand is similar in the way that we have a race breakdown close to yours.

The White people weren't here first. The native Maori of the country were persecuted etc etc etc.

I don't think I know everything about Racism in America. Not once did I say that. I just can't get over how over-analytical your society is.

It was a fucking joke. Get over it.

Did you watch the video? It wasn't a joke.
Harrassing audience members is not a joke and harrassing them because of their race certainly is not a joke.

It's called Heckling.

Google it.

It's real.

This is what RHYMEFESTkillah has basically said in this thread:

Only white people can be racist, because, ya know, they're white.
Black people can't be racist because, ya know, they're black.

In theory he's being racist right now, racial prejudice.

Pwned.

Argument over.

Close thread :)

Well done, Hiu.

What is it with you thinking we don't know what it's like?

Our "indiginous" people are mostly black and they follow the same idealisms of black americans. Their culture is huge in our country, we even split our national anthem into two versions.

Racism is not an America only thing, you're not any further up the road to understanding it then we are.



Woohoo thank you for saying this. What difference does singling out have as opposed to talking in general? It's still the same thing. There is no difference between what that black guy said on stage to a live audience than if he had said it specifically to someone. It's still labelling a group derogatorily. Again, these double standards are bull.

In the end words are words. If no actions were taken I can't see it being a bigger deal than realizing someone is ******* with poor character that you don't want to be affiliated with. I mean I know things can be hurtful but at some point you have to draw the line and say well **** there's nothing I can do about it, forget them. Sueing someone over words? Are you serious? That's bull****.

I know what it's called, and hecklers should be humiliated, but because of their race?

In America, at the moment, only white people can be racist, because, if you weren't so thick that you read MY country's definition of racism, as well as the definition pretty much universally accepted by scholars and sociologists, racism NEEDS power behind it to work. Prejudice doesn't, and blacks or whites or whoever else can be prejudiced, but not racist. That is reserved for whites at the moment.

What hiu has basically said in this thread:

"I'm a ****ing idiot"
*attempt at sarcasm/clever witty joke*

Pwned?
Maybe if that is what I had actually said and MAYBE if it wasn't true...but racism needs power to work. Whites = Power in America.

There is no difference at all, just there was no one who PERSONALLY felt humiliated enough to make a big deal about it.
Had he singled someone out, that person would have complained. Also, if it was some no-name comedian, why would it make news anyway?
