Chocolate Blades of Thunder

[Robstar]

This shit is going too far. Tomsta is right on the bloody spot.

The term paki is offensive cause when people say it they try to degrade and humiliate us. People with white color skin wouldn't like being called milk chocolate or anything, so why let it go around when you dont like it when it comes back?


Not takin a shot at you Robstar, just answering your question!

You can call me milk chocolate if you want Shaz. This whole thing started because I forgot I wasn't talking to you anyway! You would have remembered why it was a jest from something you yourself posted!!! Damn you - all your fault.

I don't know the problem with the term "faggot" but all I know that it's disrespectful for the gay people.

The term "nigga" is offensive cause during the slave trade, people would call the black people niggers. Thats why black people find it offensive.

[Robstar]

You yourself have said that you don't tolerate any form of the word "fag" or "faggot" being used here on the board- so how would this be any different, exactly?

Instead of campaigning to devalue the potency of a slur, I think people would be better off just moving past them. I mean, they really aren't things that are worth holding on to.

I simpy think "Jap" or "Paki" is a shortened version of the actual word. Like "Jew" right? Is that bad?

[Shaz11]

He's called you a Paki before as a joke, you didn't seem to mind it then.

I know it's a joke, I'm just answering his question.

When can we talk about these things? Never? That seems like cutting off your nose in spite of your face - doesn't it?

No, it doesn't.

All I'm getting from your argument is that you just don't like being told that there are things you shouldn't do. And while I would generally agree in most regards, words with a historical context of hatred and ignorance just doesn't strike me as a hill worth dying on. Like, at all.

The "F" word, along with the "N" word have been adopted for use mostly by those they reference. What's the deal there?

The ignorance of some is in no way an argument in favor of holding on to words better left in the past. What a weird, weird train of logic to hop on.

Don't you use it all the time when you're IC'ing?

Let's lighten the mood with some boobs eh?

I'm pretty sure (85%ish) the initial intent of the word "jew" was derogatory actually.

But that's cause my character is black lol. I've got plenty of black friends and they say it's okay when I say "Sup nigga" as they would say "Sup ya bangi".
