Sacked, apologises then backtracks like a true keyboard warrior.
SNIVELING SHIT WEASEL OF THE WEEK.
Just goes to show that racists can come in all colors.
Should be noted that he was slammed by several fellow black people on that same video.
While it's heartening to see many people disagree with him I wouldn't check on Twitter to see how many agree with him.Quote:

Yeah... fired might be a bit much. But racist he is. Any time someone tries (comically) to explain differences between black and white by clumsily attempting to engage "science"....... they show their racist under-skin.
What was completely laughable to me was the whole "melanin gives you soul, melanin makes you compassionate".....I mean surely the necklacing victims of Winnie Mandela will find solace in how compassionate she was what with her melanin and all.Quote:

It's all racist, whether maliciously intended or not. It's ignorance given air time and getting the backlash it probably deserves.
I think IQ varies I also know there's more than 1 kind of IQ and a lot of it depends on what you've been exposed to as an individual.
Also from the dumpsterfire that is Twitter:
"@NickCannon We are with you✊🏿 Keep leading!" - Dwayne Wade

On IQ, of course it varies and of course it depends on what you've been exposed to, ergo the environmental factors to be considered. But to point blank say that blacks are dumber than whites because their average IQ scores say so..... that's just wrong and the only possible agenda for that is to continue fanning the flames of racial tensions and disparity.
I don't think any 1 race are by nature dumber or smarter than any other first off. Secondly race is but 1 way to sort IQ. Lastly, we're talking Bell Curves which are all over top of each other when IQ is broken out like that.Quote:

It only fans the flames of racial tensions if you're speaking in absolutes about 100% of a race vs 100% of another race in terms of superiority and inferiority. That's certainly not where I'm going with IQ and I don't believe anyone else is either, but you'd have to ask them.
What bothers me about the response to Nick Cannon is more the immediate "What he said is Anti-Semitic!" and that being the sole focus and him being fired for that. Which leads one to believe "Well had he just stuck to white folk everything would be a-ok" and it would also "fan the flames" of the whole "Jewish people control everything"....Again, I don't think Nick Cannon actually meant any evilness by it, I'd rather enjoy if people openly discussed their dumb ideas they haven't fully thought out instead of hiding. I don't think Nick meant anything maliciously, I think he was just talking to Prof. Griff and well, that's a topic that'll be discussed by Griff (if anyone knows him). All that to say, what Nick said was by no means "nice", but I'd be a hypocrite if I didn't think he should be able to spout off about whatever. There should be no 3rd rail in open friendly discussion.
Dwayne Wade giving his support is odd....Dwayne Wade having a trans child is likewise odd. I mean it's a different world I guess when you're that wealthy.
TF does a Nick Cannon even do???. Last I heard he was using his time to trade..badly..diss tracks with eminem. Guy just wants some camera time
Black people can barely get people fired when they kill us. Yet Nick Cannon was fired over something that he said.Quote:

But white society wants to dictate to Black people who we should denounce, based on words they don’t like? Meanwhile white Jews refuse to rent black tentants
You're stating a fact without giving it any context.Quote:

No. It was justifiable punishment for those black people who deserved it.
Now this is not just me saying it, this is the white people at wiki who are saying it
How come Roger Stone didn't have to go on an apology tour like Cannon ?Quote:

Serious question, Denilson (whether you choose to answer it or not):
What are the proper ways to refer to black people?
I ask because there are several names out there in use by different people:
- blacks
- people of color
- African-American
- Negroes
- brown-skinned people
I also ask because the word for "black" in Spanish is "negro", and that is what we commonly call black people..... although others use the term "persona de color" which obviously is "person of color."
In videos I saw... one by a young American black girl, and another by a young black Puerto Rican couple... all seemed to object somewhat to the "person of color" terminology.
Here's what I think.
I think the intent is what matters in most instances. No matter what you call someone... if you do so with ill intent or malice... then it's probably going to amount to some sort of racial slur.
If you happen to use a term that the person objects to... then it's a simple matter of adjusting your terminology when referring to, or speaking to that person.
I always say BLACK.
Afro-Cuban, Afro-Caribbean, Afro-American is more geographic terms, like WHERE the Black person lives.
