Why are white people being so petty?


It's kind of obvious that there is some sick sort of obsession going on here. Whats with the talk of how much chicken is going to be eaten by the audience watching this movie and why are white people so obsessed with harassing black people on message boards? Is it because most white "men" are cowards and know this is the only safe medium for their bigotry?

As much as you would like to push the idea that your case fits all its just not true. More often than not online racists never are as overt in real life. I just feel like if you're going to call black people chicken lovers and thieves and such online you should practice that in real life. To do anything otherwise is cowardly. Message board and you tube harassment is lame.

Things that are not like racism: disliking a movie.

It's not about White men in general being afraid of Black men, I don't think anyone thinks that. But them being afraid to say the stereotypical dumb stuff irl that they do on here. They're trying desperately to offend people with thinks you know they would never say so someone standing in front of them. Like what White guy is going to walk up to a line for Lottery Ticket and say "hey who brought fried chicken?!?" They'd look like a moron.

I'm white and went to the premiere of this movie in Atlanta. The movie isn't great but it's at least an average comedy, surprisingly. The trailers just don't do the movie any justice which is a shame because it really isn't that bad. It does stick to a few stereotypes but overall it's nothing compared to some of the movies that have come out that go overboard on African-American stereotypes.

i think its ridiculous that people, not just white people, are racist online but not in real life, but most white men are cowards??you would get dropped if you walked up to white people and said that, just like any other race. my point is im sure you dont say this to white men in real life just like people on message boards dont say their racist comments to peoples faces in real life.

BECAUSE WE OWN YOU!!! We are the Master Race, owning all the inferior species that fake humanity upon are glorious planet! And they shall bow before us and realise our superiority! This film's desicion to not cast white people is a declaration of war against us, one we shall retaliate against with force! Arg!!!

There, was that the answer you were looking for?

racism happens all over the net, but other races get harrassed just the same, alot of bickering goes on with all different types of races going at each other. & just like the white man all races have cowards that think less of another race, its a human mentality thing.

wait, did black people stop being chicken lovers and thieves and no one told me?

they love chicken, and even though they only make up 13% of this country they commit 75% of the violent crimes

Sounds to me like someone just doesnt like FACTS

YES, everyone talks tough on the internet, of all colors. I like how you sigle out whites though, and call them soft. lol, hat really lent legitimacy to the point you were making.

And the reason whites act so childish in these message boards is PROBABLY because they get sick and tired of movies with all black casts coming out, with `a plot directed towards a black audience, and the movie ends up TERRIBLE 99% of the time. Why do they say racist comments? Not sure, but thats probably why. People just get siuck of these crappy black movies

It's funny how this post has all the truth, yet none of the attention.

I won't argue about the sick obsession of white racism. It's certainly pathetic that a race who seems to feel so superior would need to be so petty. Not to mention punka$$

But......

Is there not some truth in it? I live around the corner from a Popeye's so I have a bird's eye view of the land office business these people do for that nasty tasting over-salted, high-blood pressure/heartattack-waiting-to-happen, chicken. Nothing but fastfood restaurants in my community, very few places where you can sit, be waited on, and have a well-prepared meal, and a healthy one at that. It wasn't always like this.

Black people really need to be caring about their diet. They need to learn how to cook, shop for groceries, and sit down in their own homes at a dinner table and eat a decent meal.

We should also stop focusing on what white people think. I know I really don't.

It doesn't matter what white people think about me, it only matters what I think about them.
