short answer : no

long answer :

According to Wickypedia :

Quote:The black children in Our Gang often epitomized the early Hollywood pickaninny [6] stereotype. These characters provided comic relief by speaking a mangled form of English and by frequently being so frightened that either their hair stood on end, or they turned white with fear (a special effect created with negative film exposure techniques). The black children's fathers were perpetually mentioned as being in and out of jail, and the children themselves habitually ate watermelon and fried chicken in the shorts. Comedian Eddie Murphy controversially parodied Buckwheat and the stereotypical aspects of his character in a series of skits for Saturday Night Live.

dude I know that it was made with the spirit of "that time" and it is somewhat genuinely less disturbing that they could have had it done.

However I gotta admit that I find myself this idea, for the less, disturbing with nowadays views, as it carries a certain stereotypical view on a whole class of people (black people) and contributes to mock someone using that relationship. It may sound cute but really it isn't.

Can we make up a "Cunt for VP!"? I'm sure that will be a huge success that we'd all like to be tied to.

well explain it to me...

its ok for black people to make fun of sterotypes but not white people?

So its ok for a white guy to act like "typical white guy" but black guys can't do it?

is this racist?

I've said this before but I've never met someone so hungry to play the victim like you are with reverse racism.Its obvious you're looking to excuse your behavior by saying if they can do it why can't I?

For a white person to compare Obama to the old buckwheat stereotypes is racist.

For a black person its not racist, stupid but not racist.

I know that video you posted somehow makes you mad and parts are racist but you'll just have to cope by being a white guy with everythng handed to you.

I don't mind being a white guy bro. I'm only a racist on the intraweb according to bird33 and clay. I value you guyses opinion and want to make things right.

Can you explain to me why I've heard Powell referred to as an uncle tom? Is that racist?

well apart this disucssion the idea *could* be envisionned if in the same pic you insert :

- palin as some brainless sex worker in a bunny outfit
- McCain as an old fukker dressed like a nazi who peed on himself

That would be somewhat fair.

A white person calling another white person "white trash" or "honkey" is not racist because you can't descriminate agaisnt your own race.

Same thing with a black calling another black an UncleTom.

To sum up you can't call blacks racist names.I can't believe I had to explain this.

so we set the standard of being the forum that won't ban anyone and allows all the free speech that the intraweb can stand but we won't put a shirt in the cafe express because its deemed racist? the 9th ward swim team post katrina was funny tho right?

we sold 7 of the 9th ward shirts....

we sold 0 of the pirate shirts....

I'm just glad I was finally able to get you and snarg to agree on something. watching the old man chase you around the forum to disagree was getting old fast.

It was getting old but without me I'd fear he'd pass away like a guy dying right after retirment.

There was nothing racist about the 9th ward T-shirt, cruel and thoughtless yes but not racist.I don't see anyone getting banned here.
