sorry ive been seeing some things that i just dont understand. like how celebs can leave jail after a handful of minutes, but a normal person cant. a black person can say the 'n- word but whites cant. certain groups of people can say and do certain things, but others cant. stupid exceptions are what cause imbalances in the world. does anyone else see this as frustrating? who else has experienced these things? discuss! |
Winter Land Man 18.07.2008 17:51 |
I don't see it as frustrating but more as irratating. It doesn't really effect my life, but I don't like to realize it. There's only a few african american's in my town, and they call their white friends 'Nigga' and they call them it back, and they think it's a good word that describes friendship. It's pretty bad. Immature and they have no fucking clue about the past. |

Yeah. I mean it's okay for the goverment to install CCTV cameras to keep an eye on law abiding citizens but when I got caught video taping the woman next door, I'm the one who has to appear before a magistrate. And nobody bats an eyelid when George Bush invades a foreign country to steal it's oil but when I climbed over my neighbours fence to syphon petrol out of his Vauxhall Astra, he kicks my fucking head in. It's one rule for the sane and another rule for people who have been sectioned under the mental health act I tell ya. fatty. |

Using it on television gratuitously for instance would be somewhat wrong because you just know you're going to offend someone..... why bother? It's not really very nice. But the situation you've just described is between friends with no (apparent) hatred going on. That is, if it's as you describe it. There's a very big grey area with a word like 'nigger', and I can respect that, but if there's something worse than using a word like that in a situation where you can guarantee it'll cause offense, it's being uppity and belligerent about hearing it for no real reason. |

Class justice, double standards, hypocrite morals, they seem to be as endemic to society as corruption and other crime. And in the end, it all boils down to power: those who have power and influence get off light, those who don't pay the price. And that is no different in capitalism, communism, fascism, etc. It's just that every system has a different group getting the hammering. |

lol reminds of me people saying Resident Evil 5 is racist because it has a white guy killing black zombies. XD People say that all would be well if they had made a black guy the main character for a change. But by the same logic, Queen and Led Zeppelin are racist bands because there were no black members. |

I went to see Chris Rock on stage this past summer, and he was talking about the NAACP pushing to ban the word "nigger", and he said... WHEN I HEARD THAT THE NAACP WANTED TO BAN THE WORD "NIGGER", I WENT TO MY STOCKBROKER AND I TOLD HIM TO BUY ME 800 SHARES OF "COON". |

Sure "nigger" is an extremely offensive term, but it doesn't hurt anybody unless we are willing allow it to become a hurtful term. As long as the "n" word is seen as offensive, it will be constantly exploited. If a white dude wants to call his black friend "nigga" and he doesn't find it offensive, that's cool with me. |
