Thoughts of a 'Racist'

[Mr. Peanuts]

i understand ur point,
but there is no point.

why say the word in the first place?

it doesnt achieve anything.

as far as im concerned, you can go fuck yourself

[Troll King]

If people aren't being punished for being racist against other cultures, the mistake isn't that you shouldn't be punished, but that they should be as well. Making that argument in no way strenthens your case.

[za gophar]

it isnt that unreasonable. who gives a shit if u cant say n------? does it scar u? holy shit, shut the fucking hell up i hope you are fuckin netbanned u fucking bitch.. damn.

[Craxer]

this thread reminds me of a joke...

An airplane is in the sky. It's engines just broke. The captain tells the passangers:
"Please remain calm, but our engines are broken and in order to land as safe as possible, we must lose weight of the plane so we are going to throw some passangers out... lets start alphabetically:
A - African Americans! [silence]
B - Black people! [again, noone replies]
C - Color people! [silence]"
Then a little kid's voice can be heard: "Daddy, why aren't we doing something, they called us 3 times!".. "Shut up son, today we are ni**ers, right after the mexicans..."

SERIOUSLY WTF IS IT WITH THIS FORUM AND RACISM YALL JUST STFU AND STOP WHINING ABOUT IF U GOT BANNED THAN U CANT DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT AND BITCHING WONT GET U ANYWHERE SO JUST SHUT THE FUCK UP

[Mr. Peanuts]

ok, the only uses for the word ****** is if you are addressing a black person or referring to their colour.

why should you want to do that?

You know Hack u have a great point. Im also currently banned, but my ban is not for racism but for "Intent" to be racist. How is it right for staff to know what my intent is. Do they know what im thinking ? Are they so much more inteligent then I, that they can automaticaly know the meaning of my words. Maybe I just word thinks differently then others..or maybe staff (who I wont name) is just confused and unable to understand what Im trying to say sometimes. I really feel misunderstood and im prity angry I have to sit in DSB cause someone thinks "I Intended" to be racist when I rly did not. heh Hack im glad u wrote this post....gives me and others who r wrongfuly accused to speak our minds to our fellow TW Members. This is not to staff but the other abused players who are misunderstood or taken advantage of by corrupt staff.

Ravage

you must have done something to hint that you were being racist...i really doubt a mod would ban you because they thought you were thinking like a racist..

I have a question for everyone who seems to think that they simply have to use oodles and oodles of racial slurs whilst playing the spaceship game. How often do you walk around the halls of your school calling people n*ggers and what have you? (note - I'm assuming most of you 'racists' are still in high school. It's the only explanation for your lack of maturity.) I'm willing to bet you don't use such terminology in real life because you know it's wrong. And you know your teacher or principal will be on your ass in a heartbeat. Hell, if you happen to attend an inner city school, you might even have to worry about a gang killing you for using such words.

Anyway, my point is this. Stop using the anonymity of the Internet as wall to hide behind whilst you act like a dickhead. And simply stop being a dickhead altogether.

Don't try to pull this weasling out shit, you know that the N word is controversial, you know everytime you say it that someones going to make a fuss about it, it's your own stupid fault and no one elses. Save frustration and stop the whine.

Btw a2m, Boondock Saints own.

[pv=nrt]

anonymity makes us fearless.

[Craxer]

racists in tw are mostly immature 10 year old fucks who know they wont be really punished (a 2 day ban isnt big enuf of a punishment to scare any1) so they just go around calling people shit.

anyway, did you know that the original meaning of the N word is "an ignorant person"?

[Melufa]

Going by that definition, I'd say hack was an "n" word.

[Ara]

Ravage, you messaged a ZH from DSB with the n word.
And Craxer, I'd say you're wrong. The first slaves were from
Niger, or was it Nigeria, so that's where the word comes from,
I think.

Here's another theory from http://en.wikipedia.org/

The word ****** is a highly controversial term still used in many
countries to refer to people with dark skin, particularly those of
African origin. It was once used freely in standard English but is
now considered highly pejorative and most people would no
longer use it, particularly in public. One theory of its origin (or
etymology) is that it came into English via French from the
Spanish negro (meaning "black"), and it is therefore related to,
but not derived from, the English word Negro (ultimately from
Latin niger, also meaning "black").

Nigra was once considered a more polite form of ******. Coon
was also once used in the United States as a word for black
people, but it and other offensive slang terms, such as dinge,
smoke, spade, and darky, are no longer in general use.

but we are still wondering why i can call someone say Magi koz an AZN or a chink or something along them lines and never be banned or someone can call me a cracker or something...notthing is done..but when i call someone who is african a niqqer im banned...im not sa ying i shouldnt be banned but shou ldnt the other ppl who say it vs other ppl be banned to..the blacks are not the only race....i hear pplc alling other ppl "azn's" or "azn" more then i see them saying "niq"

yeah ara this is right....people used n*gger as a term for all ignorant people after it was coined as a slang term for black people (thought to be ignorant at the time)
