because it's one thing to say racial slurs and one thing to speak of racial stereotype.
Whenever you immediately dismiss or think less of someone simply because of where they are from or the color of their skin.

This can go both ways. The racism of those that immediately thought "Trayvon had it coming" and was an obvious thug simply because he was black. Or the racism of those that thought that if Trayvon attacked Zimmerman for following him, they should have known better, because apparently Trayvon was an animal who instantly had to respond with physical violence.

How fucked up is that?

There are forums where its OK and not OK to say that word. Also, you have to be of a certain race to be allowed to say it. otherwise, if you're not part of that race, you have to awkwardly refer to it as the "N Word" as if that makes it any better or more palatable.

And of course, all of these racist rules are being perpetrated by the cracker mods here as some sort of half assed gesture to combat non-existent racism.

I literally dont understand this perplexing treatment of one particular word. Its fucking astounding. I never seen anything like it. Does this sort of thing exists in any other culture or language where a word is referred to as "the N word" or "the C word"?

What if I went up to a black guy and said "Hey N Word". Not "Hey American Inventor" but "Hey N Word". What would be the reaction?

Pretty much all zero tolerance policies are absurd and are simply an excuse for the mods to be lazy. They want to be "against racism" but rather than try and possibly ban people for saying actually racist things (which would require them to make a judgement call), they instead just go the lazy route and ban American Inventor.

Anyway, let me reiterate what I believe is a very important question. In the absence of personal property, who makes decisions on land use? If Hodj, who being from Kentucky harbors a deep need to be a plantation owner, comes to my farm and decides to plant cotton there instead of corn, who decides what we can plant? If Hodj decides to cut down the Black Walnut trees to plant blackberry bushes, can he do that?Who decides?
Dumar, do you consider this an unimportant question? You haven't answered it when Hodj or I have asked it. I know you aren't interested in debating Hodj, but don't you think this is an important and an obvious question that needs to be asked? I can't wrap my head around how a land without personal property can deal with something like this.

I feel like we should know more about Khalid.

Khalid, tell us about yourself. Where do you live, what do you do, what do you like?
Khalid, do you consider this an unimportant question? You haven't answered it when I have asked it. Don't you think this is an important and an obvious question that needs to be asked? [/QUOTE]

No, I dont consider where I am from important in this context. I have already laid out a great deal of personal information on my upbringing here and in other threads. Look my American Inventor, perhaps if you return the favor I will feel like you are trying to have a genuine conversation and not just find some context to attack me

I dont want to attack you, I'm not even engaging in whatever it is you're trying to debate.

I just want to know more about you.

Hey Tuco! Draegan said I have to ask you to get out of the Shaw. I'm not sure if that means he permanently shawed me because he is stupid but help me out over here.

i dunno. i didn't see it as dismissing. i think that when there is a stereotype, there is a measure of truth to that statement. The way media contextualized Travyon, it was completely opposite of what he really was as a person. I think that this measure of fear and paranoia of "stereotype" do more harm than good because imagine if CNN straight out reported the news the way it was meant to be: the truth. Just straight up said, "Trayvon was a fucking punk, got high, and has a history of criminality."

I dunno, but I think america would've been outraged.

Numbers isn't my favorite poster, but a permanent or even temporary shawing longer than a day or two for sending Draegan a PM is probably unjust, and so I support his liberation.
