Gibberings CLXV - Reported for being racist against drugged up clowns

Anyone can be racist but this current slide in EADD to 'bloody foreigners' is getting a bit uncomfortable. If someone came up to me and called me a 'fucking dyke' is that ok? Nope. So.

Everyone go look at the 'European and African' bit of the forum subtitle and have a bit more empathy.
Aye, indeedy.

My flatmate just woke me up and handed me a full Dominos pizza %)
I could murder a pizza right now. Though a decent one, not yer Dominos shite.
 
You guys what the hell are you gibbering about.

For me the word white trasha and nigger offset each other, like paki and kike. All equally offensive. No difference

By the way did anybody watch that Vice doc on the Old Firm Derby, don't rember the actual title, something Football's most vicious derby.

Now those guys do know how to get under each other's skins. Brilliant chants

Exactly. I agree with you. That's I'm trying to say. Both is as bad as each other.

When did snolly write that? I didn't see that.

I do admit, and hope I don't offend anyone with this, that because most here are British I actually forget that people come here from other parts of Europe - even though it is called EADD.

I apologise to anyone I've ever offended whenever I've said anything - and should never have said anything. Snolly I'm sorry if I've made you feel uncomfortable.

The hypocrisy of a lot of British people is unbelievable really.

Brits emigrate all over the world which is quite alright, apparently, however if anyone comes to our country they're vilified and treated as scum... Bizzare..!

Really?

You think a slur like nigger that carries with it a history of oppression and connotations of slavery, abuse and degredation is the same as a slur like white-trash that carries no historical significance?

If someone called me white-trash it doesn't brinng to mind anything other than the fact someone is trying to be hateful towards me, if I was black and someone called me nigger it would immediately bring to mind to the situation out of which that word was born, slavery.

The power of media propaganda


if I was black and someone called me nigger it would immediately bring to mind to the situation out of which that word was born, slavery.

If you were black and a black person called you that would you think that?
 
It's not just my perception, it's an absolute fact.

White people have not had centuries of oppression with the oppressors referring to them as white trash. They haven't had white trash go home sprayed on walls in their community. Just pause and think about it for a second. It is in no way the same thing.

Not everyone is aware of where "nigger ," comes from but know it to be a racial name.

So in that context nigger n white trash are the same. Both racial insults. Try not to assume that everyone has access to the information that you do.

It depends how you are trying to quantify equivalence, on a personal level one is clearly way more offensive than the other. On a legal level they are probably considered equivalent, a racial term is a racial term.

Agreed...

It's referred to as reclaimed language and to be fair I believe Owen is white and so are you so neither are in a position to even start to comment.

Personally I've never had someone call me 'white trash' or even heard anyone being called that. In the UK both black and Asian people, along with other ethnic groups (Irish springs to mind) have suffered institutionalised racism, white residents haven't.

I don't feel guilt over the transgressions of the past, look far enough back and enough detail and you'll find the same things in all cultures what is shameful is to perpetuate this kind of ignorant hatred through the sloppy use of the language.

That's your opinion. I do get what you are saying though but diff people get offended by diff things. Some people I know get hugely offended by the word cunt but think it's ok to call someone a dickhead. It's all about perception really.

When using words many things need to be considered- context. Who is saying it and why etc etc. I do respect your view point though.
I would never knowingly be racist and know that I'm not (well as much anyone can say- it's been argued that we all have some inbuilt racism which could be just making judgements based on appearance. Almost in the same way many would look at how someone is dressed and label them a chav)
Anyway I've went beyond waffling here and not sure that post even made sense.


To make things simple I just try not to be rude or offensive to anyone (doesn't matter on religion, sex, race, age). Can't we all just get along :)

Made perfect sense, spot on

Fair enough. and im in a position to comment, if i was the color of "joseph and the amazing technicolor dreamcoat" id still comment

lolwut?

So white people aren't allowed into the discussion or air an objective view as to the relative severity of racial slurs?8(

That makes no sense. The only way to move forward and cut this sort of shit out from society is through intergrated debate between all races with the common objective of racial harmony.
