Because you can call a person "X" word, fully knowing how destructive that word can be, yet if a white man says that same word as you mean it, it's racist. That is what is childish. Either all should use it, or none.

Now why did you not just say this the first time? Am I speaking German here or something? Hehehe.

Fine. I encourage you to yell at every black kid on the street who used the N word. See how that works out.

They should be taught to not use such a repulsive word, or acknowledge that everyone can use it. There must be equality.

I'm from a culture where white people do have such a history. When I call my friends micks, and make fun of them for their pale skin am I being self-loathing?

that depends. if you grew up in a society where the term "mick" was often used to degrade, offend, and demean Irish people, and now you and your buddies use that same word to put down each other, then yes....that is self-loathing.

So, what do you mean? We agree or what? (Based on my current diet I am trying today, I am a bit light-headed)

So basically, you have an idiotic theory that, despite any evidence that might exist to the contrary, you are sticking with out of shear stubbornness.

And obviously, given your statement above, you don't see "white boy", "honkey", or "cracker" as a term that is often used to degrade, offend and demean white people in general in American society despite the fact that this is exactly why such terms exist. What caused you to ignore reality in this way?

I was watching Bridezillas on TV and this black couple had just gotten married and was asked in interview what you want to do now? The black groom replied get white boy drunk. Do you feel that is racist or not?

I do not cause he did not seem to say it in hate and there is that whole song about getting white boy crazy. What do you think? One my white friends say it was racist but she said the Bridezilla was lucky he showed up at all.

There is a simple litmus test with a 99.9% accuracy rating to determine if something is indeed racist.

By the strict standards of Political Correctness

Any word, phrase or image that portrays the white race positively or any minority race negatively, is racist.

If there is an exception to this rule I would love to hear it.

Have you missed your own posts somehow?

For blacks, it was automatic that they were self-loathing if they used such terms. For honkeys, you weren't really sure. For micks, there were special circumstances that must exist for them to be self-loathing.

What's ironic about your position is that you are the only person stereotyping black people. You've stereotyped all of them as being from a society that had slavery and oppression, first of all.

No African immigrants or children of such immigrants in Thunder's world, apparently. You've also stereotyped any black person who would use such terms as being self-loathing without knowing **** about what their reasoning for using those terms would be. Which is, simply put, retarded. You cannot tell if someone is self-loathing simply based on your own personal biases.

Your litmus test basically says that white people can never face racism, which is complete bullcrap.

yes, for black people that have NEVER heard the word "nigger" before and have no clue what it means, it is possible that their use can be non-derogatory and they would not be offended one bit, if a white or other non-black person used that word to describe them.

No, it's not racist. People are too hypersensitive over words.

but we don't live in that perfect world.

True, but aren't we all trying to make it better? Just sitting back and having a double standard doesn't fix anything. We don't appreciate it between the sexes, so why should it be appreciated between races?

In line at the BBQ.

True story from living in Grapevine, Texas. Investors opened a restaurant named Mongolian Barbecue but changed it a few months later to Mongolian Grill because too many people were coming in asking "Where's the pork ribs and BBQ smoked chicken?"

Im sorry rogue, but Im not quite sure what context "white people can never face racism" you were referring to?

I need to know this before I can respond to your post.

It all depends on context, attitude, relationship. I have a feeling ironic comedy is almost non-existant in your reality. Just because I call a friend, "King Turd O' Crap Hill" when they dont say please or thank you doesn't mean I loathe them in any way.

I could be wrong though.

If the only two questions that can be asked as part of the litmus test to determine whether or not something is racist pertains to either a statement about whites being something positive or some minority being something negative, then that limits the litmus test by race, which is biased against white people. It is completely possible for a white person to be treated in a manner that would suggest that the other person believes them to be inferior just due to their race or for another race to believe themselves superior due to their race.

Now, I think that I may have jumped on your post before it was changed, since what I originally seen did not have any bolded portions, including

I am sorry if this is the case and you were just pointing out that the litmus test is part of PC'ness, which it seems to me now that you were.
