Support NeoGAF

[Captin Quacker]

I don't like the idea of single group of people being holy cows or whatever.

Like white-face is OK, black face isn't!? Come on, everyone's equal, let's stick to that.

And where is it said that whiteface is ok?

Edit:and I swear if you bring up white chicks

 

[User1608]

What in the flying fuck? How does me defending people who might not see things the way I do = yeah people should blackface, I support the practice.

Jesus fucking Christ, I'm out. I just... I can't.

Why do you care more about people not seeing why blackface is bad over the fact it is something that has roots in racism?

 

[Jest Chillin]

I agree.

Let's also try to understand people that might not get that and not just suddenly jump to, "RACIST!! BAN THEM!"

They're more likely getting banned for using the same arguments over and over that have already been debunked.

In any thread, on any subject, in any subforum across the site.. if you fail to read the topic and make posts espousing ideas that have already been discussed ad naseum with no intent to have real discourse, you catch a ban.

It's not just "this poster is Racist! /ban." It's the fact that the poster is trolling in some way. Whether that's through trying to anger other people or through feigning ignorance/not reading the pages and pages of preceding discussion.

no doubt. or just stupidly ignorant.

 

[stump sock]

it's creepy looking but not offensive.

and there's also a legitimate history of whiteface across many cultures that is separate from trying to imitate another race.

But black people didn't enslave, murder and rape white people for centuries with no repercussions. There is no history of white people being mocked and made fun of by black people by painting their face white. How can you say that blackface and whiteface is the same?

 

[dave is ok]

Here is another for you guys

 

[The Incarnation]

Calling me racist just because I see nothing offensive in white person painting their face black is quite silly...

Do you know what racism is? Nope.

I'm not calling you a racist. I'm stating as fact that you are a racist.

Part of being a racist is antagonising a race of people, especially by ignoring the history of said race.

Fair enough, but whiteface doesn't have the racial history that blackface has

 

[Klarion]

The fact remains, if you want to be more convincing in imitating someone who's black and you're a white... Then better apply some black color to your face. Or are you going to stand there and try to convince me that someone with white face looks more like Kanye West than someone with black face!?

Come on, common sense check here.

Or what, black should not be imitated by white people, and that's it? But the other way around is OK?

 

[Silver Arrows]

This is hilarious, seeing you go down like this. What point are we in, quadruple downing?

I can't tell who the white guy is supposed to be. Maybe he should have smeared some shit all over his face like that perfect rendition of Nicki Minaj.

Oh. I'm not going to waste anymore time on him/her then. Thanks.

People hate being told about their implicit guilt in this culture.

Well, to me, you're a racist because you don't treat all races equally. White faces OK, black faces NOT OK? That's racism.

 

[stump sock]

that's my point exactly.

clowns, mimes, aristocracy, shironuri/geisha, there are lots of reasons to paint your face white that have nothing to do with mocking a race.

nooooot a whole lot when it comes to blackface.

 

[Gordon Shumway]

Fucking alts..white face white face white face.

 

[Silver Arrows]

I guess this troll is going to enjoy a nice perma ban then? Good riddance.

One of the people before who got banned came back for seconds. I hope the mods look at the email associated with he klarion account and see if any match/similar to people banned earlier in the thread.

You know, I'm glad racists (okay, "ignorant people" amirite?) are inherently stupid. It makes it easier to out themselves as the idiots they are.

Well to me you're banned so who really cares what you think.

"I'm not racist, you are!", "Stop being intolerant of my intolerance!"

What a fucking joke you are.

It happens all the time..for SOME reason they live in race related threads. Go figure..

 

[crowphoenix]

I don't get what it is about racism, sexism, LBGT issues that gets people raring to be huge assholes.

 

[Captin Quacker]

that's my point exactly.

Just making sure were on the same page

This thread gone full on crazy

 

[atr0cious]

Well, to me, you're a racist because you don't treat all races equally. White faces OK, black faces NOT OK? That's racism.

All Blacks had to do was get oppressed for 400 years as slaves, bred as animals, and then once freed, kept away from society and their successful attempts at independence destroyed. You lucky duckys!

their shitty world view gets challenged and they are intellectually dishonest and generally assholes who can't cope. It makes sense that they break down into quivering messes when they are confronted.

You know, having grown up in Alabama with some racist/homophobic views, I am glad I got checked early and was able to grow past.

Cause it's inane.

I noticed the pictures in the mantel. They're parents...

Holy shit, it even proves why blackface is unnecessary.

I'm well aware of the sufferings that black people had to go through at the hands of white people, but those days are over.

We're living in the world where all races are equal now, let's act that way.

I see you gave up.

 

[Enzom21]

That's not blackface.

This:



is blackface.

This is just a halfassed Halloween costume.

People just want to be enraged about something.

So none of this is blackface:

All part of minstrel shows. By the way, blackface used to also include oversized hands and feet to further depict black people as less than human. This shit is all the same thing. It's all blackface.

yeah, I grew up in the Northeast and it was more nefarious in some ways. I was able to extricate myself from it but I still deal with it on a somewhat regular basis. Meh, just trying to pull them out of their ignorance slowly but surely is the best I can do.

How would you feel if they wore masks that were designed to look like the character they are dressing up as instead of painting their faces?

If you honestly believe this, you are absolutely, 100% wrong. If you are trolling, I hope you enjoyed wasting people's time.

There's not a country where this is true though.
