Dares? What's the big deal about a little off-color humor?

Off color humor? Well isn’t that the problem here, using race as a backdrop for humor especially using stereotypes that were used and presented from hate.

WHAT white privilege? Constantly being taught how horrible whitey was/is in school? Racial preference programs? Being called racist at the drop of a hat while non-white racialism is ignored or even actively encouraged (think taxpayer-funded and often mandated Asian/African/Chicano American studies)? Oh, and by the way, it seems like I've seen Tim Wise often quoted when the concept of white privilege is advanced or defended--never mind that he is a pathological liar and/or ignormus on racial issues [www.gnxp.com].

You should read this. (If you haven’t figured it out white ppl got all wilds in deck. They can pretty much go into almost any country or nation in world with locals providing the red carpet to greet them)

White Privilege: Unpacking the Invisible Napsack
by Peggy McIntosh

AS for so called tax payers funding minority studies is due largely because of demographics of where these educational insitutions are located at. BTW, the Terminator declined any more funding on Asian American studies in state of CA, which is place that has consider amount of Asians. Tim Wise is a pathological liar? Are you MD? As for being ignorant on racial issues, you shouldn’t talk since you basically approve the use of racial stereotypes that are based from hate, to be consider as humorous. You can poke fun of all cultural customs, habits and convey a sense of curiosity and inquiry into a racial/culture form of humor, but making a blatant attack on way someone looks based on race or culture is tasteless.




Trolling? I think I have engaged in reasonably serious discourse here, though admittedly sometimes with some invective, which you are far from guiltless of i.e. "Go and roll your fat ass in a tub of mayo"...LOL. "
well what else have you been doing? I suppose to talk someone who uses the term “ lol” seriously on something of this nature? Engage in what kind of reasons? The only reasons you have engaged in are the ones that only fit your bill and closet racist decorum


As for "Asian-American Empowerment," I don't think whining about training videotapes is going to empower much of anyone other than the ethnic advocacy leaders who exploit any "outrage" they can find. I also don't think advocating socialism is terribly empowering for a group that is disproportionately professional and well-off (this especially applies to ABC's of Chinese and Japanese descent, if admittedly not as much so for immigrants and some Southeast Asian groups).

Whining? Allowing hate –related stereotypes to continue with out proper education to parallel it is an issue and would be empowering to counter it. WOW talk about being “ignormus on racial issues”, I guess you brought into the whole MODEL MINORITY MYTH. Just because so called certain amount of asian americans have wealth that doesn’t means all avenues on racial hate and stereotypes is prohibited. How does wealth suppose to compensate for racial profiling and stereotyping?

Behold - a public exhibition of conservative politics stupidity for all to see.

The rest of us need not say anything in response. This idiot's post is our best ammo against ignorance there is.

Thanks for making our job easier. Biatch.

If I told a joke about a paralyzed retarded kid who had infections from his own pee running down his leg, that would be cruel and inhuman. Its cruel and inhuman because we can SEE OURSELVES in the position of that kid, and feel the pain of being mocked for something you cant help. Or even worse, we IMAGINE the pain of being unable to understand why people mock us. Thats why many people cant stand making such vicious jokes.

The reason why you think its ok for that ass of a team owner to mock asians, is because you lack imagination. You lack the ability to see yourself as an asian person, being treated like shit. And you lack this ability because you conciously or unconciously, hate asians, and do not see them as human beings. Because if you DID see them as human beings, you could empathize with their plight when others mock them.

Fortunately, its people like you who live and die and never leave a mark on this earth more substantial than a skidmark on toiletpaper.
