who gives a fuck if johnson was racist?
tell you what, the next time your black friends take you to dinner call them the n word and end it with ER... make sure you record it and post up the results on here. Or go out and find some asian guys and see if they like you making fun of their speech. Record that too. post it up, cool guy. lets see how it works out for you.
until then why not just shut the fuck up and quit defending racism, it's only making you look bad.

Now maybe racism led to him trying to make that joke. But the joke itself isn’t racist. If that makes sense.
Scary. For once I actually agree with you.
As long as the joke isn't too offensive and the person saying the joke is not being disrespectful I think it's okay to joke around from time to time with race jokes. Same time me personally I wouldn't do it with a bunch of strangers on a public message board I'd always say it to a friend in private. If you are comedian well to me they can kind of get a pass they are professionals just trying to make ppl laugh. Once again as long as the joke isn't too offensive. [Reply]

If you ostracize and isolate someone, they'll be lonely enough that they'll actually help you when you need it, just to try to gain acceptance into the group. [Reply]

It's just a word. People have been conditioned to be triggered by it..
Nonetheless, a word can be empty or weigh a metric ton depending on who said it, the context/situation in which it was spoken and, in this particular case, the history behind it and all that it symbolizes. And that's in addition to any "pre-conditioning".
That's why its best to think before you speak and be exceedingly mindful of whom you're speaking to. [Reply]

For example, the word "Mahomes" makes 31 NFL teams break down and cry. [Reply]

No. It's best to not pay attention to stupid people who base their lives on symbolism and are triggered by words. But they are the majority, so they get their way and perpetuate the dumbing down of society.
Words are just that..words.
Being mindful of stupid, mentally week people is why this country/world sucks.
It's best the stupid people start learning to stop being offended by words and wise the **** up.
The whole point of media is to cast spells over people by repeating the same words over and over again. They keep reporting racism this and that. Therefore they keep pushing and perpetuating racism.
It's no different then abusive parent calling his kid stupid for a decade. Tv is an abusive parent but people don't know any better and accept what they are told. [Reply]

In fairness, it's not that people are dumb. That is also just a word.
It's that they are incredibly misguided due to years of conditioning.
It takes something else to jar the mind from that rat wheel state of mind. [Reply]
