    Re: The most ridiculous ban ever

    Every single culture and race has gona through some sort of persecution in their histroy. Get over it. As soon as you get over it, it loses it's power. There are plenty of racial slurs for white people, everytime someone tries to use one at me I just laugh it off and walk away. Please don't give me some shit about white people never went through anything because part of my family survived the Halocaust. Never once have I claimed it effected me. I don't see how an event that you didn't live through could effect you, it's bullshit and an excuse. Shit happens, this world is fucked up.

    Most people only look at things from their own view. They skew and ignore facts. No offence to you or African-Americans or Africans or anyone but it was Africans who sold many slaves to the American Colonies. That little piece is always left out. Slavery has been around forever, Africans are not the only ones to go through it. Slavery sucks but you didn't go through it. The only reason racial slurs effect you is because you let them.

    You have any idea how many Polish jokes I hear? Racisim is just ignorant people trying to be something. Polish are among the hardest working people yet I heard a million jokes about how dumb my people were while i was in school. Never once did it offend me because I didn't care what people said.

    People suck, get over it. Ignore the idiots and move on. Until you can learn to stop caring what some fool who uses racial slurs and such you will never get past racisim. People not only use racisim to hurt but many use it as a crutch for their own shortcomings.

    Re: The most ridiculous ban ever

    lol the "racism" whites receive is such a smaller scale then any other in the united states that it's almost insignificant in comparison. I really don't know what part of the U.S. you live in, but i never have to face the same things a blk person would.
    Sure white people have stereotypes, everyone does. But to say that we ALL experience the same lvl of racism is silly and simply not true.

    And as far as the scholarship thing... lol that is the favorite calling card of typical racist people who make up facts to better suit their needs. And I'm not even saying anything about you, but what you say is simply a stereotype. First off, tehre are so many kinds of scholarships out there, and out of ALL the ones out there, very FEW are "race based". Take the fafsa, the most common financial aid option for example, its completely "needs based". It goes by your income alone. ANd if you are under 25 it goes by your parents income. It so happens that on average whites make more money then blacks, and when you factor that, ofcourse more minorities will get fafsa benefits. But A white student who had teh same income lvl of the black student would also get the fafsa benefits.

    So called minority scholarships are COMPLETELY school specific, and very FEW schools have them. Just because a select few high profile schools have them doesn't mean the other hundreds of thousands of schools do. Many schools have minority scholarships just as an incentive to get more minority students to attend their schools, so they can claim diversity. If WHITES were in small numbers in a majority of major colleges they would probably do the same for them. But the fact is we do not live in a country where that is the case. The fact is the majority of students in college are white. "Some" Colleges are simply trying to diversify their campus'. If you know where this mythical fortune for black students is, please let us know, because i have some black friends in and out of college paying off student loans that would love to know.

    It reminds me of my old Jewish professor when he would joke about how sick he was of anti jews talking about how Jews are hording their "Jewish fortune", and that he would LOVE to know where it is, and how he could get a piece of it so he wouldn't be a poor college professor anymore.

    Every single culture and race has gona through some sort of persecution in their histroy. Get over it. As soon as you get over it, it loses it's power.
    I'm sorry, but history has shown that's just not how the world works. Ignoring something has never and will never make some change or go away. History shows that the only way to change things is to speak up, not be silent, fight back, and "do something about it". Many changes in our culture have happened because people were offended and weren't going to take it anymore. "get over it" simply does not work. Why do you think some things are no longer ok to freely say about ppl in open without consequence? Because people SPEAK UP. People should never stop speaking up about wrongs. Honestly if your sick of hearing about them, then get up and do something too, so that in the future all this stuf will be a distant memory.

    Re: The most ridiculous ban ever

    No, i got your point about ignoring idiots will invalidate them, and that many racist are just covering for themselves. But doing that would mostly be a bandaid fix imo. I think not allowing ppl to get away with certain things would do much more in a least amount of time.

    Where to begin. Yes, i am sure that every culture and race has gone through *some* form of persecution in their existence, but if you are going to argue in recent history that any has had even close to an impact in America as slavery you are gravely misinformed.

    The point of blacks selling blacks is laughable at best. Yes, it happened in some cases, and im not excusing it. However, the majority of cases were a grab and go style. And if you want to talk about what is left out about slavery, unless you take college level courses that deal with it, the vast, vast majority is left out about it. This is perfectly supported by the amount of misinformation in this thread, including the dumbass who claimed that the word Nigger has nothing to do with slavery.

    And I do not know where you live, if its in Poland or Germany, fine, but if its in the US, the "Polish jokes" you hear are miniscule compared to what blacks face in this country and have for centuries. Does not compare.

    I wish it were so easy to "get over" racism. The problem is that the racism is the source for discrimination that infiltrates places like the workforce and life in general. It is hard to forget about something that is the cause for oppression. I can assure you, as a black man, whatever racial jokes you get for being Polish, again unless you are in some area of poland/germany, you wont ever experience what its like to hear a non-black, especially white, person call you a nigger.

    To the OP, I hope you enjoyed your attention, whore.

    LOL the ignorance astounds me. A lot of people use that same "logic" and I just /facepalm.

    It's easy to laugh shit off when 90% of the people around you are white.

    Unless you live in the ghetto or something where it's vice versa, in that case laughing and walking away gets your ass beat. /stereotype

    Re: The most ridiculous ban ever

    how did a thread about someone breaking the terms of service repeatedly and using a word that is unacceptable to use in our society turn into an INTERNET GAME FORUM DEBATE over whether the social stigma is justified or not?

    no matter what your warped little brain thinks, it's unacceptable. should it be unacceptable? i don't think that was the point at all. this awesomeness of this thread is teetering on being lost to you dumb niggers.

    If being offended by a simple word is dumb, then refusing not to use said word (resulting in negative consequences in some situations) which is not at all lacking in synonyms is even dumber.
    I agree that it would be extremely stupid to do something like yell racial slurs while you run through that section of a town, but please tell me where I said we should all run around screaming nigger, or other such racial slurs. I'm in no way refusing not to say it -- I do refuse to use said word except in certain circumstances with people I am very familiar with and who know that I mean no ill from it, or to make a point. However, do you not see my point that the word's negative or positive connotation should be based on who says it? Clearly in the case of the OP there was no shred of racism, would you not agree? If a non-racist says such a thing why should they be punished -- why should people be offended. It is entirely likely that in this case the word was used to mean "friend" most likely aimed at a White or Asian person. Why is this wrong? I completely understand that using these words can cause an uproar even when said in an non-hostile non-racist way, but I'm saying that we as human beings should get over this and change our thought process on it, because it is a word and not a tool of evil.

    You apparently completely missed my point, and I hope you see it now.

    Look, dont use the fucking word. I am tired of all the excuses ignorant people use to use the word nigger. You are a fucking idiot if you are going to call your white or asian friends nigger as a sign of friendship. That same word was directed at countless blacks in history as they were murdered and put to death in worse ways than your suburban mind could imagine.

    Im not being oversensitive, im just tired of fucking stupid people who have no idea the history of that word, because if you did and really understood it you wouldnt be using it, and if you DID then you would be even more deplorable. We all know that you wouldn't dare speak like that amongst a group of black people, and your inevitable ass beating would not be because of oversensitivity, but because that word coming from the mouth of anyone not black resonates in a black person in a way you cannot understand. And i am generalizing black people as those with self respect.
