rolling "Is This Racist?" thread

i miss the days when we were all goofy drunkards, the white man got us with his promises of untold wealth and now we're all joyless coke-snorting architects

for years i knew nothing about the nazis except they seemed to hate singing and wanted to steal antiquities

x-post - Yeah. The only time I know of that my dad actually punched someone out was when a guy called him a Nazi directly to his face. He knocked that fucker down fast.

There are more "German Americans" than any other kind of American though

"Well, ___________ are the blacks of Europe" = "Hey, want to watch me lose an argument?"

It was crazy. It was like someone had shot a crazed chimp out of a cannon at my sister's face.

And we're all like "Go for the eyes, Fritz!"

HAHAHAHAHA!

x-post Maybe in the Mid-west but not around where I grew up and not necessarily ones actually from there.

I pretty much grew up thinking everyone was literally either Irish, Italian or Jewish.

I'm of German heritage obv, and I would seriously need a fuckin reality check if i got IRL upset at someone calling me a Nazi

Whiney. You're not actually from Germany. I think that makes a big difference.

heritage != nationality != race tho

troo

dying @ whiney rn

so can I just ask if there was any intentional irony in the "pork chop" digression upthread, because that's a slur against Portuguese people

rn?

right now

okay lol i have never heard of 'pork chop' being used as a term for portuguese ppl? please tell me that's a joke dan

when i worked with a crew of dutch/italian/english guys, it's fair to say you wouldn't be taking huge offence at the ethnic slurs tbf

yeah I'm wondering about pork chop too

REALLY?!

last time i fought with nv was about gypsy/romany stuff iirv

This thread is moving rather fast, but re: not knowing the connotations of stuff like "uppity", I remember being told off for using "inscrutable" about someone who was Japanese - my mind was blown that this was a *thing* but I never used it again.

I can't think of a Dutch slur tbh. 'Cheeseheads' is what the Krauts call us tho ;)

tom you don't think english ppl take nationality based abuse in eg scotland, ireland?

Or d'you just think, as individuals, they have it coming?

"go find a prostitute, rutger"

lol

poor alix and pip

Standard slur on the English = "You have considerably less scurvy than us!"

i got clogs, tulips and windmills and that's me done

Dykes

Bjork Icelanders She's the Icelander everyone knows.

clogs, tuplips, windmills, porn, weed, good cheese and painters?

lol cheeseheads!

i'm trying to think of something to say about canadians but jon's "code word" story upthread is making me wary

You know what's funny? That French people call English people roast beef. I'm sorry but it just is.

tom you don't think english ppl take nationality based abuse in eg scotland, ireland?

But what do they call them? We've got Jocks, Micks, Paddys, what are they? Trevors? Brians?

if you are insulting a group of icelanders you can use "sigur ros"

I don't know if anything has ever caused more horrified, inappropriate laughter than the Racial Slur Database for "snob"

snob doesn't seem to be there?
