Paula Deen's Racism Scandal

"You're right, it DOES taste like fried chicken"

 

lol

 

sorry!

 

like NASCAR..

 

Black people love watermelon, is racist. White people are privileged, is also racist!!!

 

could you maybe read a book or two containing the two terms high school and sociology in it before you yell at us in caps at a new place, inna joke thread fer chrissakes. :2thumbsup:

:love:

whoa whoa.. easy with the exclamation points there, Skip has to pay extra for those, and if we run low he starts spamming us for membership funds again. just like you cant even post more than 4 smilies in a single post.

oh ya, thats right that reminds me... hey, Skip, wtf man? i thought we were gonna get more variety of smilies pretty soon. blew the money on hookers and coke, again?

heres a super bonus meme, just cause this kid cracks me the fuck up.

 

what book would you recommend, how to make fun of white people as a whole, without sounding racist? without race, racism is just an ism. Or white people are the only people that can be racist. How many racists does it take to screw in a light bulb? none, they prefer to live in the dark.

 

I'm sorry everybody, It wasn't my intention to piss people off. I came here to make friends not enemy's, who new it was going to be just like reality. When you've been shit on as often has I have by life, it's hard to feel privileged in any way, but I'm sorry I got mad at you for having an opinion I found it is the small everyday deeds of ordinary folk that keep the darkness at bay. Small acts of kindness and love . JRR TOLKIEN I read that here for the first time, and am going to try and live up to it!

 

hey, no worries, welcome. myself, im jus goofin, certainly not just making sport of you. well maybe a little. perhaps thats a good perspective to have tho... we've ALL been shit on by life at some point. sucks.

welcome to Hip Forums... watch where you step. :sunny:

 

i watched a snoop dog documentary and he uses the word ****** all the time... with the R on the end a master rapper know how to enunciate! recently i have been paying atteention to whether black people say ****** or "nigga," and a lot of black people do say ******. the idea that htey are different words is absolutely ridiculous. people need to get over the word ******. im in the gym the other day and im the only white person in there, nbd, but black people in there are dropping it all the time right in front of me, and then they're going to expect me to not use it? then they'll listen to music off their phones in the gym (which is against the rules) and every other word is ******.. come on.. wake up

now i bet 10 dollars somebody is gonna say.. well i bet you wouldnt say ****** to them in the gym derpy derpy derpy derp... well yeah, no i wouldn't... but y'all sure as hell aint doin yourselves any favors using it all the time.

 

why would you want to use it anyways , so what if you here black people using it. Thats a poor excuse machinist

And not all black people use it

 

different settings determine social acceptability. why is ethnic communication any different?

what's ok in church might not be ok in school or at work, and vice versa. when we keep investing emotional baggage in a word, like ******, we perpetuate and accent our differences as humans, instead of seeking the things we have in common. that is part of the perpetuation of hate.

separating ourselves into groups is a very human thing to do. its when we start ranking those groups and assigning value to one over another that we continue to go backwards instead of evolving forward as a people.

 

True.

TPTB like keeping us at odds with each other.

A house divided cannot stand.

 

lest i get known for only picking on the negatives of american culture...

here's some good ole down home fun right here !

Does that apply to words like Left or Right, Democrat or Republican, Socialist or Capitalist, etc. etc.?

 

to me it does.
it was just said above and i agree, i people divided...

Dem or Repub, that game is rigged from the start. third party options are crushed like a bug every time they pop up, Ross Perot to Ron Paul being shut out of the RNC this last cycle.

when its left or right, black or white, up or down, like those are your only two choices, yes, the tactic i believe is divide and conquer. you don't really truly believe there is a fundamental difference between the left and right wing groups or the repubs and dems, do you? i see them as sides of the same disfunctional coin.

choose sides, or refuse "labels" and refuse to choose.

 

So far, it seems GA and FLA have taken a hit in the news; as far as having the racist publicity.

 

I think she would have better served herself by just making a simple statement,such as---"Yeah, I've made some insensitive and dumb remarks in my life, but I've apologized and moved on, so lets just get back to cooking", instead of blubbering around on a bunch of shows keeping it in the news and begging for forgiveness. I've never watched her and don't intend to, but is there a person alive that hasn't made a racist remark at some point in their lives? Most of us learn when we mature that the wasting of time and energy hating others for the dumbest of reasons gets one nowhere except to be known as a dumb-ass racist. Let the buttering begin. Someone must like her show.
