Pocket God Accused of Racism

[Kogarian]

Okay jackass, Im not talking about white people having white people as slaves, yes that existed, does that me I should hate my own race for what It did to my peoplw? Seriously dude grow up

RACISM AGAINST WHITES DOES NOT EXIST

You can say that theirs racism against rednecks whatever, but there is no racism against whites. Rednecks is not a race. Any one who could honestly tell me that their even a little bit offended my the words "cracker" or "honkie" or so far stuck up thier own ass playing victim.

South Africa, your a douche, obiously theirs hatered for whites their, not because thier a minority but because the black SA think its whitey fault for everything. Thats like saying theirs hatred twords Americans in the middle east, how about instead of calling me out and telling me that your some how smarter than me is just a jackass move, your response could of actually sparked a discussion but instead you had to act like a dick.

Wow, that definately went way over your head. As stated, trying learning more of the world before pressing on with your informed, narrow-minded views. Please.

Whatever guys, if you think your right, Im not gonna try to change you

Spoiler: some bitching

You know what, fuck this, you guys are jackasses, instead of trying to make a discussion all you do is state that your so much smarter than anyone else. How bout you post something helpfull. How bout you "inform" me about the world instead of just saying that I got it wrong, you know what, fuck you, I dont give a shit if I get suspended or even banned. This shit happens alot on the escapist, bunch of fuckwit asshole go around posting that ___ got it wrong or that ____ is uninformed. You go around posting on other forums how you pledge to stop flame wars, but instead of being men and talking it out like decent humans you go ahead and post "Im right your wrong" this shit happens all the time on the Escapist and Im sick of it. Please for once use that massive brain of yours and talk it out. Seriously stop. My original post stated that I dont belive racism twords whites is anywhere near as severe as to any other races, then a couple people made some smart responses and some jackass states his "Im right your wrong" argument. You know what escapists, we shouldnt win any fucking award, not the way the forums been recently, two eductated people cant have a fucken discussion without one of them blowing up. I give in, your right, Im wrong. If you truely belive in fucken racism twords whites and you get offended at "craker" all I can say is that your a lowlife who uses the fucken internet to hid their feeling.

On topic, yes PC is definetly out of hand, staing that a game like this racist is clearly stupid, but Im sick off all the remarks that "ohh If it was white guys no one would care, lolz" you know what thats true, because if they were white they wouldnt have sterotypical hairdoos and whatnot. Shapen up guys, be humans

Actually, your antagonist 'Kogarian' makes an interesting point.

Racism has indeed existed for a long, long time. In fact, all the white folks with different accents and languages in Europe used to kill each other for much the same reason people of different ethnicities are at each others' throats today.

In fact, there was no such thing as the 'white' race until very, very recently. At the risk of being a one trick pony, here's more on that point: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J3Xe1kX7Wsc

For some reason they think I'm unaware of that, I was just saying how racism twords whites isnt like the one twords blacks. Anti-black racism is due to a belief in cultural superiority, while Anti-white racism is due to actions of whites in the past, while I don't like either one, you have to admit that Anti-black is much much worse

EDIT: I still don't believe theirs a white race, were not as connected as other minorities

 

[LeonLethality]

That's close to my opinion. I figure that as long as people like heintzer (above) are around, claiming that all whites are racist against everyone, and it's impossible to be racist against a white, there will be racism. But I completely ignore race. I have black friends, white friends, asian friends, australian friends (and, though it isn't under "race", I felt I'd point out I also have friends in wheelchairs)... No British friends (at least, not that I know personally), because the one British person I've met was an irritable A$$hole. Doesn't have to do with their race, just that I hated them as a person.

I judge people as people. If you're a dick, you're a dick, and I don't care about your opinion regardless.

I'll admit, I may be subtly racist in that I try to avoid the issue of race when I'm around anyone of a different race, but because that's a rare enough subject as it is, I'm normally fine. Though, you cannot (actually, you probably can) imagine how uncomfortable it was to go through the "Civil Rights Movement" (including the rise of the KKK) with someone who was black sitting right next to me in class. It did give me an interesting perspective on it, though, because I wondered how they saw this, when it was a group they belonged to being persecuted. (P.S.: They didn't care. They basically paid as much attention as you could expect anyone else their age to.)

yeah its pretty cool to share similar views, and im glad i wasnt flamed for my "ignoring racism" statement, somehow people all have to be racist in some way no matter how much they deny it so why not just ignore it?

But if they were white it would be A-OK!

To be honest though... don't black people deserve to be a bit racist? I mean, we enslaved them, demeaned them and didn't let them sit down on buses. I wouldn't mind if a random black guy came out of nowhere and said "Hey cracker, can I kick your ass for kicks?". I'd be like "Sure, do you want me to struggle, or should I just stand still?"

Oh yes. More on-topic... it's not a racist game. Of course it's not. Pah.

I beleive the only way to stop racism is for people to stop using the word "RACISM"

I love your logic. If nobody invented the word racist, there would be no racism.

Well if the word racist wasn't invented, then there would probably be something like Lorgism, and we'd all be Lorgist against people different than us. Racism is just a word that constitutes an idea.

There'd still be no racism though. Just Lorgism.

 

[T'Generalissimo]

It seems to me that the problem with this whole reverse racism issue is more to do with rhetoric than anything else. When you say that one kind of racism isn't as bad as another because there's less threat assoicated with it; no risk of economic disadvantage, history of oppression and such, that seems pretty reasonable to me. When you say that one kind of racism isn't as bad as another because you're white; well, you can see why people react badly to it, right?

 

[paladinkratos]

Its only racist if you make it racist.

 

[Jharry5]

In this day in age most of the accused "racism" is actually, ironically enough, caused by people noticing racist stereotypes, thus making the accuser slightly racist. (See: the RE4 backlash)

This, exactly this. Surely the only way that some people would pick up on certain racial stereotypes is to have them highlighted in a public outcry such as this. They're only devaluing their own argument, in my opinion.
And, as stated before; it's an iPhone game. It's not meant to be taken seriously. It wouldn't encourage people to feed others to sharks, just like playing Monopoly wouldn't encourage people to bankrupt other people.
