Title: what makes a joke rascist? should they be frowned upon
Post by: Don Rizzle on April 03, 2005, 11:08:00 AM
its pretty much ok to tell a joke about the french, the welsh, irish, germans, americans etc. but as soon as a comedian tells a joke of about poeple of another colour they are branded rascist and bigots.

Its my personal opinion there shouldn't be all this negativity about it, a joke is a joke and not a statement of true feelings i enjoy all types of jokes as long as they are funny and that doesn't make me rascists for laughing either. i treat everyone as i see them and i have friends of all nationalities i even share a flat with people of multi nationalities 1 other english person, 1 pakistani, 1 chilien/danish and a shri lanken. i just can't understand the double standards.

please post your thaughts on this.

I think you should be allowed to say what you want without fear of being called a racist.

I agree with you, a joke is a joke.

Well maybe because racism is still an issue in the lives of people of color. All jokes have some sort of truth in them as well, so if you laugh at something that may be offensive, you're basically agreeing with it.

Not that I care, I laugh at basically anything unless it's joking about an unfortunate situation.

there is always a line you just cannot cross, some jokes are acceptable, but some are cruel and racist, there is also some truth to all jokes, so people can take offence.

i myslef live with a Mexican, a Frenchman, a Polish man and i'm Polish raised in Australia. we all call eachother the foreign fucks, french faggot, polish sausage, mexican kunt etc... and there are no problems because no mallice is involved in the comments... but you cannot go up to a filthy frenchman on the street and insult him for his culture, you would rightly get smacked the fuck up.

A jokes a joke. If someone tells a joke degrading black people I laugh (if its funny)

I wouldn't mind blacks making jokes about white people.

yea i agree going up to someone and telling jokes about their race/nationality can be offensive which is why i refered to comedians who are not telling a joke to anyone in particular but a whole audience. but then again us englishmen can't help but call the welsh sheep shaggers to their face when ever we see them

Yeah its a double standard. You can call someone white a cracker but if you call a black person a nigger your offically a racist.
