And you thought Floyd Mayweather was racist...

[Gandalf]

It seems Floyd's recent racist remarks have upset some crazy Korean American (or perhaps just American yellow skinned) songwriter.

Now I said that people should be free to say what they like and be hung with their own words and I think this is a case in point.

Floyd is racist, but his racism is relatively mild racism. This Jenny bitch on the other hand appears to be a full on racist with a wish to seemingly wipe out the black race.

Take a look at some of the comments. They are outrageous and truly vile.

Thus far the Korean media is ignoring it. However, they have a tendency to focus only on non-yellow people saying and doing unsavoury things. Her words are awful and she should lose her job just like many journalists and public figures here too.

Foul words should be called out for what they and we have a Hitlerian racist here. Floyd is what I what term a moderate racist.

[Gandalf]

And before people start calling me out on the yellow thing, I am just having fun. I know that is racist in and of itself. I am all for racist jokes, but hate speech is a little different. We all know I am not mean in that way.

Actually, just reading those tweets things again I am gobsmacked by some of the things she was saying. I like to fire things up sometimes with a spicy post, but none of us are particularly evil and Floyd Mayweather would never go that far.

Utterly deplorable language and sentiments. Floyd I can kind of excuse as a lot of dumb people will support someone who has the same language or skin colour, but to full on verbally assault an entire race with such violent connotations is a gob smacker. Just wow.

[Kev]

See I would defend her right to say those things though. I don't see how it is racism as she has no actual power to denigrate black people or any other race.

It's just a little rant.

I quite like her, with a feisty attitude like that I bet she's a wild lay.

I find racism laws to be ridiculous now. Denying someone the same rights as others on account of their skin colour = racism.

Slagging somebody off because they are black, yellow, ginger, fat, disabled, a cunt etc is all much of a muchness and people should just get over it.

Also her statement regarding black people only advancing through white people, although offensive to say is factually accurate. Can anyone demonstrate otherwise?

[Gandalf]

I believe in freedom of speech and the power of your own language to show you up for being what you are. Imagine if I had gone off on the Jews in such a way and then said that I didn't regret anything that I said. You would all think I am an arse and rightly so. She is a horrible human being and unfortunately I see it all too often. You only have to mention the word Africa and young Koreans will get a fit of the giggles and start making tribal noises. It is ignorant and should be called out as such which I have had to do a lot in the past. Sure you can say it, but expect people to call you an idiot and expect to have issues being in a public position such as writing songs for well known Korean pop artists.

Take a comment like: "Floyd Mayweather, your people brag about all the muscles they have except for the muscle that actually counts. #Neanderthal. F***ing idiot. You should be WORSHIPPING Asians you sub-human ungrateful APE ". It is more than a little rant, it is outright nasty and venomous and isn't a one off statement. It is one of a dozen statements and she then refuses to back down.

As a public person involved in a type of music is drawn more towards black music rather than Indie boy rock, it is more than a little bit flippant. It is horrid and she deserves a good backlash. I make the Floyd references because what he said is child's play compared to what she went and responded with.

I am all for people saying what they want, but they deserve to be called idiots if act idiotically and all I am doing is comparing her to Mayweather which really was so tame in comparison.

[Kev]

At least she didn't say she wanted Floyd Mayweather to have his teeth smashed in and left dripping with blood because he is a member of the black race which is what you said regarding Yuri Foreman.

But I guess that was different somehow right?

We all still loved you.

The difference was that I was drunk, but man enough to take back my words. Don't forget the context too which was right after the flotilla massacre. It wasn't in response to Floyd saying that he essentially supports black athletes above all others which is relatively trivial.

My posting history is there and with the mean is hopefully a lot more that is funny, caring and a better reflection. Nobody is perfect, but very few are racist to a Hitlerian kind of degree. Floyd certainly isn't.

I have said many times that I respect Jews as human beings, but take issue with their governance. That destroys the couple of times a got silly and said something mental.

As I say I am all for freedom of speech and allowing your own words to be the ultimate barometer by which you are judged.

So you're just misunderstood like Mel Gibson and John Galliano then.

[Gandalf]

No, what I said wasn't different. It was racist and wrong.

However, I have rarely advocated mass genocide or anything of that ilk. In fact my posting shows me as being against that kind of behaviour and abuses of power in general.

I am open for people to say what they like, but wouldn't like to be thought of as a racist because I don't think I am.

I remember once criticising David Haye's grammar and having someone call me a racist for it. Sometimes I think people don't even known what racism is.

I don't see how it is any different. She wrote her tweets directed at Floyd because she thinks he an idiot neanderthal. I'm sure many would agree with her on that. He slagged her race, she slagged his back.

I see no harm. I am against censorship of any viewpoints. When people spout hateful things in public those remarks become both their crime and their punishment.

The difference for me is degree and that is my only point.

Floyd saying Pac is yellow, eats rice and that he supports blacks over other races is relatively harmless. Some of that is true and the other is just bias. Many do it in terms of supporting the Brit or supporting Khan because he Asian. That's fine. I eat a lot of potatoes and my wife prefers rice. It's relatively uncontroversial.

Saying that another race is superior and another is degenerate and should be worshiping another is racism taken to a whole other level though and that is something I don't feel comfortable with. It is very hateful, but I accept that it can be said.

I am against censorship too, but I do feel that one was more extreme than the other. It's nothing controversial. If anything my own posting history probably has me cast as anti white. I'm not a fan of that manifest destiny, let's invade and plunder the poor brown people nonsense.

[Gandalf]

I predict that Greenbeanz is going to say that I am part of the problem and that Bilbo is ignorant.

[Kev]

Beanz won't say I'm ignorant. He'd never use a single pejorative when he can impress the whole forum with the full contents of his expanded thesaurus.

[Beanz]

If you two public school Boys can manage to extricate your tongues from your incessant mutual rimming for one moment you may make more sense. I have never needed a thesaurus when replying on here and would never accuse a Tory boy like you Gollum of traits like ignorance and bigotry that so obviously define you or suggest that Miles was in the least bit unsettled by his latent homosexual and racist tendencies.

[Beanz]

Oh and Gandalf you are mixing up Jews and Isrealies. Whereas Bilbo is confusing cracking one out over ladyboys and not being gay.

True, there is a distinction. I post these things quickly sometimes and don't get things over properly. I sometimes miss words in sentences in my haste too.

I am not much of a typist unlike you too. It's not easy to type using only one finger on each hand, but such are my habits.
