A little lesson in racism. Apparently some of y'all don't know what it is
   
Edited on Fri Jan-04-08 05:41 PM by xultar
when you read or hear it.

Just using the word boy in a sentence with the name Obama doesn't make it racist. If you believe that then you are being very simplistic.

When you're black you have to learn what is and what isn't racist.

Here are some examples...

If someone says, "Obama, that boy is good." Well, that isn't racist.

If someone says, "That Obama boy won." Well, that is racist.

If someone says "Obama is articulate and pleasant." Well, that is racist.

If someone says "Obama is a nice guy and a great speaker." Well, that isn't racist.

If you'd like to provide additional examples so we can discuss them post them below.

Oh Lord.  If you have to explain that a sentence is racist then it WASN'T RACIST!!  Damn it this pisses me off.  If there is no hateful intent then there is no racism.  PLUS some of these don't come off as racist at all.  Jeeze this is a hot button.  Sorry.

So, there are no inarticulate and unpleasant black guys?

Their definition of racism is the biggest bunch of bullshit I've seen.......at least in the past 6 hours when I last read the dump. Most of'em can't even define racism, much less identify it when it occurs.

Hey DUmbasses, 3 terms come to mind:

Racism
Prejudice
Bigotry

They are NOT interchangeable.
NAMBLA is a left-wing organization.

There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site

Oh, I can help you with that.  If you are a white male, you are a racist and everything you say to or about anyone other than another white male is racist or sexist.

Wow, what a long useless DUmp thread.  The DU-idiots are trying to purify their souls in anticipation of an Obama nomination.  They are attempting to set up Rules of Justification so they can feel better about themselves as they say the usual racists things they always say.

The DUmp is having it's first Obama birthin' pains.  This won't be pretty.

In a libtarded mind, it's because to point out that a black person is articulate is pointing out that most aren't   :whatever:

But, we all know that is silly. Anyone can be considered articulate regardless of race. It's a compliment. Normal people know that.

The liberals want us all to feel afraid to somehow offend black people in any way, shape, or form all the while placing them upon a pedestal.

Basically, they still want white people to feel guilty for the fact that they were enslaved.

It's just stupid.

P.S....this is one of their tricks that they use to keep many blacks on their liberal plantation....making them feel downtrodden and owed.

So sad but true.

Bingo.  We have a winnuh!!  If you are white and you compliment a black then you are automatically exclucing all other blacks with your comment.

The same is true when blacks compliment blacks -- at least liberal blacks.

Yes, when you have articulate blacks they are Uncle Tommin'.   :whatever:  It is really sad what the black community does to itself.
