To all of you coloreds in here, was Incognito racist in calling him a double standard edited word? While the above was for my enjoyment, I am asking seriously. If I were to try and motivate anyone in here by using a derogatory term, would I be classified as an ist of some kind? Move your ass fat ass? To a fat guy Move those stumpy midget legs? To a short man Move your black or double standard edited word ass? To a black man Assuming I had many friends, and or teammates who were also of the same persuasion?
I don't know either person you are describing. Generally it's frowned upon to be mean. That's all I have to say about it.
Coloreds. loll. I’m firmly entrenched in the “two different words” camp. Growing up using and being called something ending in gga, I came to accept that as a positive, it was always used as an endearing term. i.e. “My **gga!” However, whenever I heard or was called gger it triggered an immediate reaction inside. A very negative, more of a hurt I guess. I’ve got a white friend from high school who still calls me gga to this day. I’m ok with it. From the little I’ve read, I get the impression that Incognito was “accepted” in such a way that he had some gga’s. I haven’t heard any audio so I’m not sure which word he was using. At this point I think he’s being unfairly labeled a racist, but again I haven’t taken the time to read up on the details.
You have to lighten up. [video=youtube;6Hj27VV3dp8]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Hj27VV3dp8[/video] Homophobic? Racist? Or brilliant comedy?
"It was on Comedy Central, so therefore I get a white guilt exception since its the same network as John Stewart and Steven Colbert." If it were on the food network, this would not fly.
