Strike Posted July 8 Posted July 8 They're only insulting to lefties who have no sense of humor and only gain any satisfaction in life from being constantly miserable and looking for things to be outraged about on a daily basis. Quote

squistion Posted July 8 Posted July 8 If stereotypes are accurate, why are they insulting? Well, because maybe they aren't accurate for every member of a stereotyped group (if they are accurate at all) You know...like saying white people who use stereotypes about Blacks and Latinos on message boards are racist. 1 Quote

League Champion Posted July 8 Posted July 8 My thought is that if it's true then it can't be offensive or deemed racist, etc. If you tell the truth here, you'll get banned almost immediately. People are afraid of the truth and hurting feelings @squistion is King of the afraid 1 Quote

People are afraid of the truth and hurting feelings @squistion is King of the afraid But the point is, while there may be a kernel of true in the stereotype, to label every member of a group with it is offensive and definitely racist. 1 1 Quote

We "label" them when the shoe fits. You still get upset. The pizza girl is trash, say it because she is. If she was white she'd be trash, trash is trash Quote
SaintsInDome2006 Posted July 8 Posted July 8 Because they never are real. Irishmen aren’t drunks. Sicilians aren’t mobsters. Frenchmen don’t carry baguette under their arms. It’s so silly. Quote

If we call a black Man a savage it's racist If we call a white man a savage it's not racist, you don't care. Please explain Quote

Frenchmen don’t carry baguette under their arms. It’s so silly. You're joking right? Because my buddy and former co-worker, who moved here from Ireland and still has the full on Irish accent to prove it, is pretty damn proud of his drunken ways and the fights he used to get in to at the pubs back home. I'd love for you to tell him to his face that the stereotypes about Irish people aren't true. Quote

If I call a black Man who's a murderer a violent savage then it's racist. If I say the same about a white man it's not racist to you, Why? Quote
Mr Fantasy Posted July 8 Posted July 8 We mention black people and watermelon and it's racist but every brother I know loves watermelon. Quote

Please explain If you say "Black men are savages" that is racist. If you say "White men are savages" that is also racist. Calling one individual member of a racial or ethnic group a "savage" based on their actions in a video is not racist. Quote

Your logic makes no sense. It sounds like YOU identify blacks as savages. You just said it Quote

You still haven't explained how the work "savage" is racist. Anyone can be a savage. Where does race enter the picture? The word savage generally describes something wild, untamed, or extremely fierce. It has multiple meanings depending on context, ranging from brutal physical violence to modern slang for someone who is bold and unapologetic. Quote

Me, I'm German/Irish so every generation or two I want to blitzkrieg a country, but only to take over their taverns, not their government or their people. Quote
