Poll: Not racist

[Julianking93]

It bothers me because it directly affects me.

People know I'm a nice guy and I would never hurt anybody (unless they fuck with me first of course) but I hate how I have to say, "Oh, no, I'm kidding." or "You know I'm just joking, I'm not racist (nor sexist, nor timesist, or wish the former to truly happen to a baby)

So what? I made a racist joke. That doesn't make me racist and I don't hate anyone because of their skin color. It's just that some sterotypes are true and I make jokes about them.

As a great man once said: "A society where anyone can make jokes about anyone else and everyone laughs is a truly tolerant society." (If you dont know who that is shame on you.)

I greatly believe this, too, but I never thought of this as a problem. It's the age of political corectness, we can live with that.

Meh, I hear enough racist jokes. I don't like 'em, I don't hate 'em.
Doesn't help that some of my friends can be racist bastards.
Hell, I'm one of the people who can tolerate any race/religion/etc. (As long as they aren't trying to kill me or it's a dog.)

racist, sexist

i'm not any of those things ... but the way i go on you'll be convinced that i was one ... the reality is that racism isn't in what you say .. but what you mean

If you need to add a disclaimer to a racist/sexist joke, it means you've done a very bad job of picking the right audience to listen to it.

This reminds me of a t-shirt I saw with "I'm not racist, I hate everybody"

Good times...

Yeah it kind of bothers me, I fear saying the word "black" because I might offend a black person with all this political correctness bullshit.

(No offence)

See?

Then what are you supposed to say? ******? That will really set them of.

I just meant that the political correctness makes me feel like I'll offend someone without meaning to do so.

Yeah, I know what you mean. Everyone really needs to chill out.

It does bother me that I get mean looks while I am telling a joke but I stopped caring what people thought. I do get discriminated against because people think I am racist. It doesn't matter if you are racist; it just matters if you act on it.

Personally I think there's a pretty big gap between "Hey look, a black guy playing basketball!" and "Kill them because of the colour of their skin"

Racist jokes are funny, racial hatred however, not so hilarious.

I can enjoy some jokes and I make mild ones all the time; however, if you happen to actually be racist or tell me particularly awful jokes... its not cool.

 

[rokkolpo]

i really don't care.

i use the word ******.
but not in a racist way and black people know that.(context)

it's not about the word. it's how you use it.

Ethnic jokes might be uncouth but you laugh because they're based on truth."

D:

However a truly tolerant society is only an ideal, and is not achievable in real life unfortunately. Then again I'm a white male, it's kinda difficult to make jokes against me unless I wanted to be a fireman, in which case it would be very cruel o0.

How many white men does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
One, white men will screw anything.

A seventy-five year old White guy, his hair was completely white, marries a twenty-two year old girl, and she gets pregnant.

Nine months later, he walks into the Maternity Ward. He says to the nurse, "Well, how?d I do?"

The nurse says: 'She had twins.'

He says, "Heh, heh, heh?well, I guess that goes to show, that even if there?s snow on the roof, there can still be fire in the furnace."

She says, "Well, then you?d better change filters. Both of the babies are black."

Black men love white women
white women love hispanic men
hispanic women love white men
white men love children.

I dont even understand why white people think '******' is the ultimate word against a black now. it just shows how southern whites couldn't pronounce Negro or any other word correctly to save their lives.
Look at that there negro- 1800's northern man
Luk-it that thur nihggr-1800's southern man
That being said I never say it, but I don't ever say offensive stuff out loud.
