Not a concern trolll and I wish you’d stop excessively using that false personal attack. I do believe that no one should say the n word, I have zero desire to say it myself as some of you have suggested. It’s a very inflammatory racial slur (the biggest, most potent word out there imo) and should be used by anymore much less on national television on a news network.

Suck it up buttercup. And it's been explained to you already.
 
Yeah I get it, she said she it was a Chris Rock reference. Not an excuse though, that word carries an extremely racist and derogatory history and context and has not place being used by anyone, much less broadcast on national TV by a company that positions itself as being against racism. It shouldn’t be said by anyone and CNN is in the wrong by taking no action.
I thought white people figured this out. You don't get to dictate how black people deal with other black people. Yeah it was borderline for CNN but I knew exactly what they were doing and had no problem with it.
 
He's running away? Awwwww. Was hoping he'd stay put, figured it was only a matter of time till he converted to Islam or something.

I just wanted to see Il Douche explain away his black friend's upgrade to Abu Jamaal bin Sad el-Yeezy to a stadium full of rednecks.
 
glad to see this thread kicking around.

there's no way in hell he would not take the Sheik title along with the name change

I find your annotation on point. Sheikh el-Yeezy, peace be upon him, does have a certain ring to it. Though it leads me to suspect he may be more of a Sultan kind of guy. More bling.
 
Blacks are expected to be democrats, or they are berated. That in itself is a form of oppression. How about we live in a free country and therefore are free to be a member of whatever party we want? It takes a lot of courage to cross that line.

Republicans have been actively suppressing black civil rights since at least the Nixon administration. Why should they support Trump who is already an established racist?

The lesser of two evils (Democrats) based on the premise that the only other choice is the greater evil (Republicans), just another form of divide and conquer by the 1% to keep the peoples eyes off the looting and slow destruction of the United States by keeping them at each others throats over issues that could have been solved years ago except it would have been at the expense of the 1%.

"President Lyndon B. Johnson once said, "If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you."

By most accounts, the Civil Rights Act of 1964 couldn’t have become law when it did had not LBJ personally wheedled, cajoled, and shamed his former colleagues in the House and Senate into voting for it. One of the secrets of his success was the ability to speak the racially insensitive language of his fellow Southerners. He understood them. He understood their reluctance and in some cases downright refusal to tear down the walls of racial segregation. He knew racism from the inside, and he knew well the role the rich and powerful played in promulgating it.
 
Prime example of Dems being allowed to be racist, and not held to the same standards. The standard that everyone should be held accountable to. Which is a zero racism tolerance. If this was said about a black Dem on Fox News, all hell would have been broken loose. But double standards is what Dems live by. Heaven forbid a black person not toe the line for Dems. Those who don't are continually treated like shit by the left.

Its almost as if you don't understand anything.

Clearly you are ignorant of the definition. Kanye is a jackass and was being used to nullify Trump's racism. Pointing that out isn't racist.

I'll give you a chance to expound on how Dems are racist. Name one left leaning group or black Democrat in this election cycle.disparaging a white Republican solely on the basis on being white. I have a thread for it but so far nothing found.

Well I'm supporting the Dems, but I'm not registered to their party and have voted Republican in the past. Kanye was being an Uncle Tom. No, not the character as portrayed in the book, but the term which has come to be, and one which has been used in the black community for generations. Kanye injected "blackness" whatever the hell that is into the debate and then fawned over someone who won't even say that white national supremacy is responsible for evils such as Charlotteville, or the killing of Jews in Pittsburgh. Kanye was being a traitor to people he insisted should support Trump. That's an Uncle Tom.

Now many of Trump's WSN (white supremacy nationalists) have similar sentiments which I'll proudly bear. I'm a ****** lover because I support those who want to see the kind of America that MKL dreamed of. I'm a traitor to my race because I want true economic opportunity and that is a long and complicated road that IMO neither party has addressed properly for various reasons.

Lastly, there is a term from Norway "Quisling". That was someone who supported a fascist over their nation. I don't know what race you are and I don't care. You are being a Quisling in supporting a person who demonstrated himself a fascist when he said he was going to use an EO to override the Constitution.

Between that and Kanye? Kanye finally is starting to see the foolishness of his ways. Fascist supporters rarely if ever can say the same.
