Ah, hah! So because I don't like Hip Hop music and Rasheed Wallace, I'm a racist. Brilliant!! What about the fact that I love Brandon Roy, Nicolus Batum, Andre Miller, and many other black players. Does that make me a racist, too? Just checking.
You do know what the response to that question will be, right? Here, let me help you. "You only like those black players because they act the way you expect a white person to act. You dislike Rasheed because he personifies black culture, same reason you dislike hip-hop music, spinning rims, backward caps, tattoos, and anything else you associate with the inner city. The only black people you accept are the ones who have been white-washed." Of course, in the context of this thread, that would be a silly reply, since you were basically called a racist for "attacking" one of the least stereotypical black men on the planet. Oh, but then there's the follow-up: "Obama's white-blackness is not palatable to you because he's in a white man's position. You accept black people in the places where you expect to find them--athletics, menial labor, prison--but you're less accepting of black people in leadership roles, because you find them inferior. That's why you always attack Obama; you don't think he's worthy to be president because he's black!" Face it Shooter--you can't win. Once someone has decried you as racist, there is absolutely nothing you can do or say to change their mind. You might be better off just saying, "So what if I am? It's a free country. I can dislike anyone I want for any reason I want."
It's not that you don't like it, I don't like hip-hop either, but it's the way you go about expressing your feelings towards it, you come off a little racist in the way you explain. I could care less really. I just think your fooling yourself if you don't at least see a little bit of racism rub off in your older posts. Hell, there's been pages and pages of debate with you on this particular topic. I don't think its coincidence.....do you?
