Michael Richards has some serious problems

[kthx]

Who cares honestly, I mean black comedians say the n word all the time in their stand up routines. Having the double standard that the n-word can only be used by black comedians because it is offensive from a white comedian is racist in itself. That would be like me saying, since im white only I can call another white man a cracker, and any black man who called a white man a cracker would be so racist? How come black comedians can make fun of white and black people, but white people can only make fun of white people. Stupid double standards, I have heard 10x worse in movies, other comedians, and other shit. How much longer can black people really use this "you enslaved my great great great grandfather so now you have to pay for it by letting us make fun of your race, while anything regarding our race from you is racist" mentality.

No you will not derail with your idiocy.

[kthx]

How is it idiocy? If I decided to take a stroll through Compton I would probaly be subject to racism, the same as if a black man were to go to Alabama or something. It is a double standard in ignorance. It isn't like there is one living black man today that was a slave. Should I start killing the white men since I have Native American ancestry in my bloodline from five or six generations ago? No.

Not Kramer!!!

How is it idiocy?

It's idiocy because you yourself are discounting the action by saying "big deal, it happens on both sides." It's that kind of thinking that really hurts any hope for change.

You're giving him way too much leeway. If you're capable of saying that kind of shit then you're definitely racist. Clearly he really wanted to piss them off but I've really wanted to piss people off before too and I don't sink to tirades where not only are slurs used but he, as literally as possible in a tirade, evokes images of oppression and hatred that is generations old. It's my opinion that saying "n*gger" is one thing, and something to probably get your ass kicked over if you're white, but talking about interrupting the white man is completely out of line.

You might be right, it was just really weird seeing him act like that after knowing him as Kramer all these years. I'm still surprised he did it

[Stabwound]

He's just extremely bitter because his career has gone nowhere since Seinfeld. Everyone else on the cast has at least had minor success with other projects. Richards had one show that got cancelled after a few shows, and a minor part in a movie.

Hey Gen, remember when you got banned for spamming racism in Trench Wars, now you know how Michael Richards feels. I don't see you could be so for one usage of racism, and so against this form?

[genocidal]

I was banned for spamming "LOL" and making i.d. cry. She is very sensitive and staff takes good care of her. Unsure how any of that is racist - except for the fact I hate walruses but that's more specist.

Log of Gen spouting the n-word racial slur to I.d. Edited by Kim

Yeah I guess you are right, my bad. (thanks for the logs btw i.d.)

[Liquid Blue]

Can you go to a topic without trying to start up drama?

[genocidal]

Lol he didn't even bother to try to fake that one. (Gen>) is not possible in TW, it's (Gen)>.

But yeah I do bite his bait too much.

[Twerp]

I will not watch the video and i will forget this thread existed...

[Cylor]

Richards is an easy scapegoat for a deep-seeded problem that is much larger than Seinfeld or comedy. I pity the fool that hates Kramer.

[Hero*]

he wasnt even that funny on the show.
