examples of some of the most derogatory things people say as "jokes" against unambiguously Black people

see this is where the disconnect is because I don't think that Black ppl were just using all the derogatory things they could possibly say to unambiguous Black ppl for jokes.There's definitely a line that ppl don't cross when they're joking with friends and certain slurs, and things that would be an insult are usually left out

it happens Ray. and u dont have to look far

there's been instances even on this very site YEARS ago all the way back to when i was still admin....where i intervened on someone's behalf to stop "jokes" that were playfully and casually being thrown around by other members about their deep beautifully rich skin color. saying mess like "shadow" and "midnight".

I ONLY backed off cuz they told me "afro its OK ... i know they're just joking" in the PMs. they were ok with it so I let it be.

otherwise i woulda been knuckin buckin and eventually banning on this bitch.

that person is still a member here and i wont name them to keep them out of it. but yes. it happens Ray.

that isn't the majority here though or even like a general consensus of how we talk on here.

But I'm gonna stop this discussion after I say
That I'm being defensive in here because you and a few ppl here seem to be insinuating that Martin was show that targeted Tichina because she is Black and even though it wasn't intended in malice, it was still colorist and anti black but the actors are too blinded by their love for each other and low critical thinking skills to see it.

But I would be insulted if I were them and I was being told I'm not a critical thinker. I think they all knew they were saying things that obviously weren't the most ethically and morally appropriate things to say about each other but they were not specifically targeting Black women or ppl just for being Black

again Ray I never said ALL people talk this way either here, or anywhere else

you were clearly under the impression that certain things dont happen. so i had to provide you real life examples that could easily be verified firsthand - to show you they DO happen. and that you don't have to look far to find INSTANCES of this.

maybe that's where the "disconnect" is. you don't seem very aware.

I didn't say that you said "ALL" though. You enlarged the words majority and general consensus, so that leaves room for minority exceptions to the rule. Some things just aren't big enough to matter

i dont feel ANY instance of making fun of a Black person for simply existing and looking Black is a kii or acceptable. i strongly believe in nipping any instance in the bud because of the real life consequences it has on people in our community.

it's 0 tolerance for me, and ive always felt this way.

u feel differently. and that's OK.
