the problem with me is every time I see a turban I laugh, but these are normal people not just dot heads. society is making me look down on them.
i can be pretty cynical about this stuff but i have to take at least 30 seconds out of the day to laugh at just how fucking stupidly funny society and culture really is.
it implemented the idea but you can choose to take a step back and see it for what it really is, either emotional manipulation or social manipulation.

if it makes you laugh it's not racist unless you are.

even though it is totally racist by any objective standard, I find it funny.
You could say it is up to the observer but you'd have to disprove the facts supporting the humor.
If they can't take the joke I say f em Quit being a whiney baby. There are more Polack ,Irish and Italian jokes than you could tell in a lifetime. Why should the Sandniggers get away scott free?
This thread is about to spiral into extremely racist non-satirical stupidity.

that's what I mean by being mean.
Sometimes using humor about stereotypes is a good way to discredit the stereotype, I wouldn't call that celebrating racism.

but it isn't discrediting it, it is enforcing it. Especially in the video above, it shows stupid americans and stupid muslims, those are bad stereotypes and shouldn't be encouraged.
Jewish people are funny but damn.

A lot of people see Sihks wearing turbans and think they're Muslims.

The video was stupid, but sometimes characters in a TV show can act racist, but they show how stupid they really are, for example Micheal Scott in "The Office", he would always say racist and sexist comments, but his character was of a ignorant office manager.

Um Er no the truth hurts more than satire if you expect to be accepted by any culture you should conform to their norms and morays. Fact is that we can't accept everyone for themselves. and they may not like how our culture lives. I dare you to go to an Arab or Irish home for a wake . We may not like each other but man up

I could not follow that post either. I'm not sure what the example of a wake at an Irish or Arab home means.

I saw a poor old lady fall over today on the sidewalk!! At least I presume she was poor - she only had $1.20 in her purse.
My girlfriend thinks that I'm a stalker. Well, she's not exactly my girlfriend yet.

Racism is the view of superiority over other cultures
Asians good at math, blacks good at sports, whites great at swimming? <- all stereotypical and slightly racist, but in a uncle tom sort of way
