People gonna want to cancel Lamar Jackson?

[MDC 8,116]

Lamar Jackson’s comment was technically homerphobic but I don’t think he intended it to be anti gay. He’ll offer a minor apology and it will go away.

Yeah and what makes it homophobic is Jackson implying that it’s a negative.  

It is a negative...if you're a guy. 

 

[Reality 3,139]

Since I like Lamar, I don't think his homophobic comments were homophobic. Let me explain why...

I've summed this issue up, everybody can move on.

What if I say to someone who just got raked over the coals in divorce payments....."wow you really took it up the azz on that"

Is that homophobic?

Yes

[listen2me 23 1,969]

If one of you old focks go in to get a colonoscopy.  And after you are like man getting something shoved up your ass sucks!

Is that homophobic because you are implying that anal secks is a negative?

[nobody 2,939]

Maybe he was calling the guy a cannibal.

Why are we assuming all gay men have butt secks? Maybe some just give eachorher head? Way to box them in. 

[listen2me 23 1,969]

Plenty of guys have anal sex with women.  Some guys like Newbie get pegged by women.   

Why is azz play a homo only safe space?

[Engorgeous George 2,332]

Wasn't eating genitalia a staple of Fear Factor?  Seems I remeber several segments involving gulping down various animal shanks.

Accurate. 

Lamar has been beloved by the media to the point when someone questions his ability as a passer it's considered offensive.  That translates to an army of sycophants defending everything he does.  

[listen2me 23 1,969]

I am in no way implying Newbie is not at least bisexual.   To be perfectly clear here.

[Horseman 2,728]

Like we needed more proof that Hauck likes to eat dickk.

[listen2me 23 1,969]

Wouldn't sluts who love eating bags of diks have a claim here?  I think they do.

Well I for one have stated in the monkeypox thread that I think any bottsecks is gross.

But in hetero bottsecks 99% of the time the woman is the one taking it.  So yes, if you are saying a guy is “taking it up the azz,” you are calling him gay, and if used as an insult then it’s homophobic.

Kinda like back when I was in high school in the 2000’s it was pretty common for people to say “that’s gay,” essentially meaning “that’s stupid.”  Doesn’t mean those people are homophobes, but it is a homophobic comment.

[listen2me 23 1,969]

What if the tweeter Lamar directed his comment was a woman? All of a sudden not homophobic? Are we sure the tweeter was a man? Do we have an link on this?  Without the facts this gets hard to discuss.

Correct, if at a woman then not homophobic. This particular tweeter is a man and his twitter bio says as such.  Now you’re getting it.

Damn.  Lots of rules to get down in this new Liberal PC world.  I will continue to learn and do better.  

So if Lamar says boy it is not bad at all? Not even if he says it to a fellow black man? Lamar's skin color makes him exempt?  Kind of like the N word directed from one black to another black is not a bad thing?   Thats priviledge!

[listen2me 23 1,969]

Was this racist by King James? Says old white men and compares them to slave owners.  Insinuating that ONLY old white men owned slaves?  Painting all white men as bad and racist? 

To my knowledge none of these owners owned slaves. 

People ripped on his stance since he makes a bazillion dollars to play a game.  But why wasn't there more outcry from the media after this racist lashing out?

On his HBO Sports series The Shop, L.A. Lakers forward LeBron James called the NFL’s owners as a bunch of “old white men” and accused them of acting like slave masters…

“In the NFL they got a bunch of old white men owning teams and they got that slave mentality,” James said kicking off the conversation. “And it’s like, ‘This is my team. You do what the f— I tell y’all to do. Or we get rid of y’all.’”

Yes I would think it would be kind of like the n word.  But of course there are levels to racism and homophobia, boy isn’t as bad as the n word, and eat d1cks isn’t as bad as the other f-word, which I’m guessing is what got that hockey player suspended.

Wonder why no blow back really? Doc says we have to be careful on how we display racism to whites.  Imagine that.  

On ABC broadcast, Mike Breen says Montrezl Harrell apologized to Luka Doncic for calling him a “b*tch a** white boy.” Jeff Van Gundy says he was surprised the league took no action. Mark Jackson acknowledged there’s a double standard and it’d be a bigger deal if reversed.

“You just have to be careful,” Rivers said. “They both were talking. I don’t think Luka was saying anything racial, but he was swearing. So they both were doing it. It’s an emotional game. It’s a playground game out there in the playoffs. I said to him, ‘Hey, I don’t think you meant anything racially by it.’ He said ‘white boy,’ but I don’t think there was anything racial intended.”

People don’t “pick on” people for being hetero because they’re the majority of people (not for long, right @jerryskids ?  )

I do think an HR employee would care if someone is going around telling people to eat puzzies though…

True, based on the current trends, we'll be over 100% gay by about 2050.  All genetic and none behavioral/environmental of course, because that is unpossible.  Science$%!

Actually I was thinking the opposite.  Our society has co-opted phobia to mean "meanie," whereas it used to mean "irrational fear."  I would say his comment is, however, anti-gay.

This is a tough one, because Luka is one of the whiniest b1tch asses in sports.

I agree there can be a double standard when talking about racial insults.  But not sure why you’re trying to turn this into a thread about race

Because there are a lot of PC rules and I am trying to learn.  

But back to the OP.  

So it matters if the tweeter he was directing to was a woman.  It doesn't matter if the tweeter was a hetero or homosexual man?

Not IMO.  A homosexual man may not really be offended if they do it, but it was still meant as an insult originally.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homophobia

“A range of negative attitudes and feelings towards homosexuality.”  Saying someone “eats d1cks” in a negative way = homophobic.

His comment is anti gay. I don’t think he intended it to be anti gay. I think he lashed out in anger without considering the implications of what he was saying if that makes sense.

This.   Although I think homophobic is a better word than anti-gay. 

[listen2me 23 1,969]

If the league doesn't fine and suspend him then they are not very serious about welcoming diversity even though you see diversity and sayings all over their product.  

If he gets zero punishment then there is a bit of a double standard going on.
