yeah it is. you're saying that because of his heritage/bloodline/nationality.

If he was american you wouldnt have said that.

Umm no. First off I have no idea hsi heritage, his bloodline, or nationality. So how can that be directed to that? I'm not some stalker.

do you honestly expect ANYONE to believe what you just posted? you've called the guy a spic before... was it cos you thought he was french? no it was because you thought he was mexican, which he isnt.

and what wall were you talking about.... a wall to keep "border jumpers" out? ohh so you were reffering to mexicans after all. the least you can do is admit you're a racist, the longer you deny what you posted was racist, the more idiotic you look because of it.

what YOU dont understand is that not all of us live where you do. theres a whole other world outside whatever bumblescum town you live in.

So what you're really saying is what FTI said wasnt racist because of your geographical location.. is that it? you're even more fucked in the head than i first thought.

I live in australia, but if i called some afro-american guy in the US and called him a nig*er it would be as racist as his neighbour saying it to him.

If what you're saying is being said because of race, or just in a racist manner making connotations towards whatever race, its racism.

i think if you get insulted by what someone says then you have a problem
although certain things should not be said most things should be ignored
the difference between me and most ppl there is not one damn thing you could say to me that would feel like an insult let alone racist

if you don't like what someone says GET THE FUCK OVER IT

The only time that I have been offended was when someone called me a hippie. racism will never go away. I think it was Mark Twain who said something along the lines of....given a fight between an alligator and a man, I'm gonna root for the man. We always root for the "home team"

I agree. get over it. political correctnes is a creation of the marxists.

See, that's really funny. In half (if not all) of those place, just being white and there is enough to get you killed. Not only are they as racist as they say everyone else is, they express it more violently than most.

[Puppy Dogs and Ice Cream]

well here is another example . be black and got to a klan meating and yell cracker. my whole point is that these people will use these racist words around friends or whatever without thinking . they think its cool or funny to use in internet cuae they cant get there brains bashed in. they shouldnt use them period.

well if u look at it, everything u say to someone can be an insult, but u just have to look past it, sure im not saying calling someone a nigger, or a spic or a mayo eating honky, is right but u just have to accept no matter how much u bitch and wine u cant change that fact that people who have to resort to lowing someone else to make themselvs seem better isnt right, and u cant be that insulted by what soemone says somethign about u, just because i say ur a spic or a nigger or a honky dont make u one, its the opinion of one person, just let them belive that, and be he bigger person and let them be

It's interesting how people will leap on the N-word, and scream racism. The other day in WW2 I took issue with being called a nazi - although I'm Welsh, I am of German Jewish extraction. My Grandmother came to the UK in December 1933, my Grandfather wasn't so fortunate, he was killed by the SA in November of the same year. Yet I was told I was being overly sensitive about it and that I should just accept it.

[Puppy Dogs and Ice Cream]

i feel the same way bout any ethnic slur as i do bout the n word. like i said before liot of people will use this crap on internet or amongst friends bet let any of these lil ignorant fucks call me a kyke to my face and trust me they wont use ethnic slurs so freely..same as if they used any other term in the wrong area to the wrong person

People can only hurt you if u allow them to

[Don Gargon]

Testie is so right, the drool laden morons still don't get it. For everyone who figures, "Just get over it." ever notice that those who agree are 99% WASPs? And pussies! I bet none of them go to work and say that.
And no, walking through the hood and being white doesn't get you killed, mugged, or rape; although believing that dumb shit should. Any anthropological statistician would tell you that all people (except white middle and higher class men) harm and assault there own racial, ethnic, and gender classes far more than they do all other groups combined. Read a history book that doesn't still call the Navajo Indians.
As a matter of fact, most of the inbreds who think nothing wrong of using the N word or most slurs are too young or too dumb to know why it is offensive, but you would not have to go to the "hood" to be taught not to use it.

[Grendel]

where you axis?

Didn't I say that? Ooops, no I didn't... Yes I was. But the point is, I reacted and gave my reasons for finding it offensive and was told that it's just part of the game.

Why is it acceptable to bandy around terms like nazi in WW2 but not to use racial slurs and epithets in KW or any of the other games? :|

[Don Gargon]

...Why is it acceptable to bandy around terms like nazi in WW2 but not to use racial slurs and epithets in KW or any of the other games? :|

1. Why would you WANT to use racial slurs and epithets?
2. Nazis were not a race or ethnicity, a socio-political group joined by choice. Like being a Republican, Marxist, Commie, etc.

[Pleb]

1. Why would you WANT to use racial slurs and epithets?

way to miss the point completely (Y)

[Grendel]

1. Why would you WANT to use racial slurs and epithets?
2. Nazis were not a race or ethnicity, a socio-political group joined by choice. Like being a Republican, Marxist, Commie, etc.

I didn't say I want to use racial slurs and epithets. I asked why is it considered OK to throw terms around in the WW2 game that some, due to ethnic background or familial history, may find distressing and/or distasteful. Yet to use other terms, in other games, is regarded as offensive in the extreme.

[Tal Star]

you know they are only words ... If you ignore them they loose their power... The only reason people use them in offensive terms is because they get a rise out of ur reaction. You ignore it and most importantly don't let it bug you and it goes away. But as long as you react and other react to statements there will always be racism.

Simply said When you stop caring they start to look like idiots...

[Puppy Dogs and Ice Cream]

well if someone says them to my face they will loose there teeth fuck power

[Don Gargon]

Pleb & Grendel: I got the point, I was agreeing that not only is it not ok but why would "you" (non-directive)/anyone want to use those terms.

Tal Star: "you know they are only words ... "
I wish they were. But in reality they are the signs of how people truly feel and in volume or positions of power we have proved time over the danger there within

[raoul duke]

Is it really worth getting into a physical altercation with someone who is obviously an ignorant antagonist trying to get a rise out of you. At that point someone who is using racism to your face is looking for a fight, so is it worth putting yourself in harms way to prove your point?

I don't understand why you think calling someone who is on the german team, in a ww2 game, a nazi isn't okay. if the actions of nazi germany bothers you so much why are you are that team?

if I was on the allies, would it be inconceivable to be referred to as british, even though I'm not?

[Grendel]

I don't understand why you think calling someone who is on the german team, in a ww2 game, a nazi isn't okay.

I've said why I don't think it was OK.

Strange thing that, sometimes you end up on a team, sometimes you get to chose.

if I was on the allies, would it be inconceivable to be referred to as british, even though I'm not?

Perhaps not but, for me, being called British isn't offensive. Being called a nazi is.

[Tal Star]

They are words used inappropriately maybe but what gives them power is when some one makes a stink about it. I am not saying that people should go around using these words like rappers use them to talk about their friends.

The real problem with fighting racism is that we live in a world that builds walls and works to keep us apart. For example in most large city's will have places like China Town or Little Italy in them. (just examples). Everywhere you go in larger city's this is how things are and sheltering people of one group from another like this dose not promote anti-racism.

[Ganjadude For Prez!]

i think everyone needs to grow a set.

for real they are words on a screen, if they bother you... turn off the screen!!! its really that simple watch

"im offended, power button... push.... im no longer offended"

was that really that hard????



by the mere fact of being offended, you fuel the fire for racism, if you no longer get offended, the racists will find something else to be pissed off about and tada! they are no longer harassing you... and if they are you dont know it so it cant posibly bother you. i really cant make it any simpler for you people

[Don Gargon]

I think it's real cute reading all these posts, learning from other's epiphany that racism is like the boogieman; if you don't believe in it, it wont bother you (unless of course you bump into a skinhead as u walk out of temple Saturday). I wish I knew this when I was attending white supremist ralleys and listening to their plans (I guess if I didn't go they would have cancelled the gathering). I know, if that unfortunate gentleman in NY didn't believe in racism he would not have been shot 42 times by the police over a wallet (i guess guns and wallets look alike). I guess us believers are the problem... :S

what does amadou diallo have to do with it? (and wasn't it 41 shots?)

[Don Gargon]

Tyler you are an unregulated sphinter of knowledge! LOL! I stand corrected, 41 shots (maybe 42 or 51 was the guy killed the morning of his wedding). But yes Diallo, Abner Louima, Rodney King (I know, he needed his ass kicked the second time; but the first was premature :P) several others brutalized or murdered because they believe(d) in racism.
So if I stop believing in ignorant arrogant assholes who fuck things up beyong measure, will the entire Bush administration simultaniously resign? :D

while i think is an old thread, its still a suprisingly good thread for GC, so here is my two cents

firstly, stop talking about the such great american "hoods" go see old gorbels of glasgow in scotland, you'll see a hood, 10 times tougher then the worst american hood

secondly, the term nigger is offensive, the word nigga isn't if used in the right context, it all depends on how you use it, yes im not saying you openly go around calling every black man you see a nigga, but if your friends with some, you can often say, hey nigga or something along those lines and they don't think anything of it

thirdly, rascism is in all your heads and you honestly fuel it with your reactions, rascists are idiots with too much time on their hands and not enough to do with it, ignore the fucks, they disappear, end of story

I don't know about you guys but i have noticed alot of racism lately and i can't stand it
from now on everyone that says something racist need to be permanently banned
this would be a sign of good will to those of us that can't take it
every time i here a slur or some sort of comment that degrades another race that is meant in malice my head goes into a fury
the other day Emporer Micheal said some stuff about hindus and i almost started to cry

it makes me sad that for humanity that ppl have this much hatred toward someone of another race or religion

i think if you get insulted by what someone says then you have a problem
although certain things should not be said most things should be ignored
the difference between me and most ppl there is not one damn thing you could say to me that would feel like an insult let alone racist

if you don't like what someone says GET THE FUCK OVER IT



i know i said this earlier but there is a difference between a joke pertaining to race and racism

[confederate]

Well every1 else is doing it, im gonna throw 2 cents in too. Racism is a belief so critisizing some1 for being a racist would kinda half assed make you racist. and on another note, I dont care what any1 else says there is a different between an african american and a nigger. I understand that many people use it to refer to African Americans but anyone can be called a nigger.

From a dictionary:

nig·ger (nĭg'ər)
Used as a disparaging term for a member of any socially, economically, or politically deprived group of people.

[Dirty_D]

I'm from New Orleans, La and u use that word for anything an u gonna have ya insides layin next to ya. People use that word out of pure ingnorance of wat it means exactly, it has a history behind it, it been around for hundreds of years and the way they used it in the past reflected on a society that really doesnt exist anymore. There are no slaves anymore and the CULTURE we are referring to is quite successful these days, whether there sellin drugs, or an educated part of this business world. Point is the word exist and is misused by all.

[KidA1337]

racism may be a belief to some but the overwhelming majority know that if you continuously and flagrantly attack another race simply because of what a small few or even one person of that race has done is absurd, and should be considered racism.

it is the profiling of an entire race because of one fanatic
i have alot of friends that are "towel heads" and i think that they are the shit in comparison with alot of people i meet that are white or even black.
