  • What I find interesting is that people assumed the chimp was referring to Obama when it could have meant many other things. More interesting that when Bush JR was in office, there was also another cartoon of a chimp signing a bill but no one (that I know of anyway) screamed racism or even suggested it was suppose to be then president Bush. Double standards are dividing this country more and more, unforuntely.

  • no one should get fired over free speech

  • woooah lots of long comments O_O

  • Wow, reading what you guys are saying.. Its eye opening. America is under attack by people far away, yes. But we have a war within our walls as well. The darkness within the hearts of your own neighbors, turning us all into distrusting shadows.Its a thin line between suspicion and hate. Try to think on this and you may create bitter feelings. I really wouldn't trust any of you with a gun for fear of a "misfire" that would just so conveniently steal my breath away. Better to be silent than think.

  • This is pathetic all of these uneducated southern redneck whites trying to make fun of an intelligent upper level black ! Dont be mad minorities run the world and your becoming outdated ! And racism is still around just look at this page ! Whites are racist not all because my ex gf was part white and her family loved me so its just the fags well grow up and stop blaming minorities on your problems !

  • Wtf? Cenk talks about how cops who abuse power should only get suspended, but if someone makes a joke, admittedly in bad taste, it's worth firing them?

  • so what !! i wd not hire minoritys either

  • I got fired for farting....eating sunflowerseeds....saying Jesus Christ....each time I got fired I asked...."what about lying....or cheating...or steeling....sleeping on the job...doing a lousy job?... They all answered the same..."That was not reported." The truth is I would not participate in the lying and cheating the the COMPANY was involved in....it is documented....when the judge raised her eyebrow...I knew she got to the Farting part!!!!

    JD

  • Maybe she complained about a lot of things. Maybe they thought that she didn't fit in, anyway. Who knows ?

    This could have been the last straw.

  • this guy is a fuckin faggot

  • haha.... agreed!

  • To the ignorant swine who believed the racist bullshit, for one there are nothing racist about that cartoon, and and another penny for your thoughts: Who the FUCK cares about someone's racist BULLSHIT? What happened to freedom of speech where people can be fired in journalism or comic writing for what they say or think? ESPECIALLY when racism is a one-sided thing now? Fuck your bullshit views on our country. You're all shitting on the graves of the people who died for us in every war!

  • your an idiot seriously you are possibly the dumbest person ive seen all week

  • It's gonna be really interesting to see once white people become part of the minority in America if we're able to pull the race card just like every minority today. I wonder if the Liberals will defend the white man once the Mexican population becomes the majority. Hmmmm, food for thought.

  • Liberals don't "defend minorities" though, they protect their voting population. Minorities lean democrat, while caucasian's lean slightly repub. When caucasian's become a minority, the democrats won't "protect minorities" anymore, they will protect their voting population. Repubs will then be the "minority protectors"

    Take dat to da bank!

  • What I don't understand is that Liberals want to help minorities and the poor. So, they give them federal aid and create social programs to do it like welfare. Yet, this doesnt help poor people it only enables them to continue to be poor. What incentive is there to do better in life when they can live off the govt. for free. It seems like the Liberals are keeping ppl poor to keep their faithful voting base and that to me seems evil and wrong.

  • I think they do some good, but I also think you're right that gov't aid helps people stay poor. It's just a balance I guess, which is why the two party system is good. Each one keeps the other in check.

    I mean it's good to help poor people right? It's bad to set up systems where they can remain poor and their children can grow up and live the same life and get plenty of necessities to survive while never attempting to improve their situation.

  • unfortunately it depends on how much faith in you have in mankind. Yes for some, they will try to improve their life when in poverty but not everyone is like that. I think we find a way to both help and push them to move toward getting out of poverty (aka help but not become their soul support for their life)

  • White men get REAL nasty when you fuck with their freedom. Birthright means something. Being a Minority will mean nothing but a different tactic/strategy to regain their rightful place.

    There was/is no Supreme intervention top dog became top dog cause he was more tougher, smarter, inventive, curious and ruthless. And top dog is White. No brag just FACT!

    Fuck with that and some day The Top dogs will put things back right! Read your History.

  • was replying to COLINGOFAST, few comments down.

  • LOL and in years to come there will be no more of these whites you speak of. The fertility rate is much too low to continue and will eventually fade away in time...

    So that "someday" will never happen, this cannot be reversed, it is too late to make any difference unfortunately.

  • that cartoon had NOTHING to do with race

  • Stink Yogurt never misses an opportunity to say something stupid.

  • Obama is a White man too...lol...and so are Mexicans.Just watch telemundo and you will see countless WHite bitches talking Spanish.

  • Awesome

  • yeah starting with ignorant people like you!!!!!

  • Are you all serious? It's 2009. We know what happened in the past. Get the hell over it. In America we have more pressing issues to worry about than oppression, or who owes what to who and who did what to who... Everyone is still bringing up the slave/black/white bullshit when we have people from other countries invading ours and blowing shit up. GET THE FUCK OVER YOURSELVES! If you were born in this country you are American. Start looking out for what's best for your family and country.

  • Comment removed

  • agreed

  • @JoeyRamone283 thankyou, no one owes you anything! slavery stopped over 100 years ago, get your lazy asses off welfare! and stop using that as an excuse to beat white people out in jobs and getting into college...im sick of it, and plenty others are too

  • @guitarplayerk11 You sound stupid. Slavery ended OVER 100 years ago...but Jim Crow and segregation was fairly recent you fucking butt pirate. You want to say in the midst of all these racist comments on this page alone...that everything is ok? ha ha ha ha you are dumb as a redneck fucking his own mother.

  • @Tame1ner black people are just as racist...they always think that the white man is out to get them...typical of a liberal hippie douche like you to say

  • @guitarplayerk11 Look at what you just said and tell me whites arent out to get blacks ? You guys are just as racist as in the past ! Its sort of pathetic !

  • @Smashing96 did i say anything negative about blacks? no i didnt. everyone is so quick to label anyone as a "racist." everyone needs to calm the fuck down and think in the sense that we are all americans. liberal media has slandered republicans as "radical racists." open your eyes people, i see just as many black people who dont like white people as white people who dont like black people. no side is right, get the fuck over yourselves

  • @guitarplayerk11 Did i say anything bad agianst whites ? No i simply stated the truth and look at what you said and tell me that isnt racist ! And yes were all american African AMERICAN Asian AMERICAN Native AMERICAN European AMERICAN and etc but you dont act like it at all ! And not all republicans are racist just the ones who act and think like you ! And i love all races including whites but its obvidious you fags dont like me so i say fuck you man and get over YOUR self !

  • @guitarplayerk11 That makes no sense have you never heard of john crowe lawn ? It was fairly recent and look at this page all of these racist fags are still hating on minorites ! Well its ok because minorities run everything around the world !

  • @JoeyRamone283 its all niggers fault they cant let things go they all hate us

  • @Greatwhiteninja123 Look at how you address "Niggers" Let what go? Look up Neo Slavery on here and you'll see that it carried on way beyond the plantation days...fucking dummy.

  • @Greatwhiteninja123 What shut up because "Niggers" dont hate anyone actually i love all people it seems you hate me because your a racist fag but thats my opinion and i bet you dont even have a master degree ? Haha im black and im getting a doctorate damn your retarted !

  • @JoeyRamone283 Get over it....ha ha...OK I'll try and reverse 500 years of bullshit. Ill try and forget all of that .......as soon as everyone else does.

  • @JoeyRamone283 Blacks 500 years ago where just like the middle eastern muslims are today - an inferior people that you hate.

    You don't think racism is still practiced, well since I'm still getting judged, obviously it's still an issue.

    And oppression wouldn't be?

    Oppression is the biggest issue there is.

    Oppression is The issue!

  • @JoeyRamone283 You're an absolute clown... it's sad that you are such an uneducated douche. 911 was shocking, and it was definitely sad. Guess what? a couple thousand people died. Every fucking day this year the same number of people (X 10) died from diarrhea in poor countries around the world. Many of them are at the mercy of US controlled international lending institutions, and died as a direct result. Your fucked up country owes a lot of people, and some of them are black. Get used to hate.

  • @JoeyRamone283 im sorry but niggers arent americans

  • @clairebear209 Im sorry but you are an idiot.

  • Don't buy the Post if you live in New York!

  • if sandra thought that a chimp was a monkey, shes deserves to be fired.

  • chimps are racist

  • Also could of been George Bush. What did we all call him? A monkey... Big ears and goofy face. Why does everybody jump on a race card? Rediculous.

  • It happens anywhere, not just the corporate world.

  • Howard Cosell called OJ a monkey.

  • liberals called bush a monkey....but thats okay because hes white? fucking hypocriticle BASTARDSs.

  • @zackgonnasurvivenwo

    dumbass monkey is a racial slur they said bush looked like a monkey they call black people monkey's because slave owners used it as a racial slur towards slaves

  • who cares? dont call a white man a monkey...and i want call a black man a monkey....dont be a fucking hypocrit

  • lets be honest though.... some people in fact do look like monkeys... ie george bush and barrack obama

  • man, these videos u guys make suck! so informal

  • this guy is fucking annoying as hell...i cant stand him!!!!

  • if a black person got fired everytime they said something racist toward white people there wouldnt be any employed black people. let there be freedom to compare niggers to monkeys. im sick of them saying whatever they want and getting away with it. then i say ninja and they say nigger what !?

  • Comment removed

  • @jckumpel I mean two rights don't make a wrong

  • @jckumpel Shut the fuck up.....and eat a dick...alright...we take blacks from africa....make them work for free for 400-500 years for free...dont give them education...rob them of their names...for Pete's sake...then FREE them...then tell them they cant go to the same schools, make racist cartoons and movies about them...they cant live in the same towns, come in the same store.....sit in an empty front bus seat, drink from the same water fountain....and that was just 40-50 years ago. Wow.

  • America is way less than 250 years old - Africans had slaves before they were slaves.

  • . the civil war was about the union not slaves. that is a lie that was invented by eurocentrist. the slaves freed themselves through slave revolts. lincoln was a racist

  • did you know america was not the only country to have slaves? rail against other countries too if youre going to do it.

  • ok sry for the insults but no shit dumb ass we bought black people from other black people in africa when a tribe defeated another tribe they enslaved the leftovers they traded them to whiteys soooo stfu black people who say white people brought that evil idea into the world u know nothing

  • @wutup5566

    learn your history dumbass

    One african tribe captured the survivors after a battle and used them as slaves english sailors only bought african slaves because the southamerican slaves died from disease they traded guns for the slaves but years after they freed the slaves they were still very racist toward them. It not the fact that you had black people as slaves its the fact that your ancestors treated my ancestors so horribly after the fact.

  • The simple fact is Europeans bought Africans because they were being sold by their own people... thus whites were raised to think that their "property" was less than them, just as the tribes back in Africa thought that their defeated foes were less than. I'm not saying it's acceptable, just that they didn't know any better.

    Race is irrelevant. Just treat others as you'd like to be treated.

  • @wutup5566 White ppl did not buy, u kidnapped and tricked them "promising" them a better future, get ur history straight

  • @MrJoshuahorror

    Usa was the first country to have slave because of race

  • that maybe so but as far as im concerned (imo), race shouldn't matter. we shouldnt care if it's blacks being enslaved or not, we should be concerned that SOMEONE was enslaved. Black or not.

  • @MrJoshuahorror

    ye no one should be enslaved but the fact is that even after slavery black people were treated horribly.

  • You're telling other people to learn their history... it was actually the Danish who first purchased slaves from the Africans who were selling their defeated enemies. Of course they were migrating to North America to utilize the slaves on their plantations. I doubt they targeted Africans because they looked different, Europeans had been traveling to the Orient and India for ages and we don't hear about whites enslaving Asians and Indians (from India, duh) who certainly looked different.

  • @Tame1ner No we didn't do any of that stuff to blacks. Well unless you are over 150 years old than maybe.

  • @huckster699 Whites are still racist today look at half of these comments from racist fags crying about how blacks hate them and dont do anything ! So yea your race still is racist !

  • @Smashing96 Arguing with them? Their hearts are as soft as stone. They feed on your energy, growing ever stronger from the fire burning in your heart. You give their arguments life. Better to look on and understand that racism is just as much apart of American life as the laws that bind us. With hearts as cold and immobile as glaciers, your fire barely scratches the surface of the ever growing, ever changing shadows that lurk all around. America needs no war, they destroy themselves from within.

  • @Tame1ner .... WHICH PROVES HOW STUPID IT IS TO ACCEPT ANYTHING FROM THE JUNGLE INTO YOUR NATION..... AFRICA IS KNOWN FOR BREEDING LOTS OF NASTY THINGS LIKE TEESY FLIES, KILLER BEES, THE AIDS VIRUS, EBOLIA, AND MURDERIOUS SAVAGES WHO ACTUALLY EAT PEOPLE. AMERICA NOW HAS A PERMANANT UNDERCLASS THAT WILL BE THERE ON WELFARE FOR COUNTLESS GENERATIONS TO COME. THE DEMOCRATS NEED THIS UNDERCLASS FOR POLITICAL LEVERAGE AND ALSO ALL THE INDIANS THEY CAN MANAGE TO GET ACROSS THE RIO GRAND.

  • @Tame1ner You know how Racist that comment is; how many times you say "them"?

  • @Kobifia It's not racist.

  • @jckumpel What is your highest level of education?If you say college YOUR NOT BEING HONEST! Just from the grammatical errors and the ignorant statements I say 9 th grade. You have a problem with anything I said let me know.

  • Jesus commands us to love one another as He loves us (John 13:34). If God is impartial and loves us with impartiality, then we need to love others with that same high standard. Jesus teaches in Matthew 25 that whatever we do to the least of His brothers, we do to Him. If we treat a person with contempt, we are mistreating a person created in Gods image; we are hurting somebody whom God loves and for whom Jesus died.

  • FOX=a-holes. Let's shout it loud and proud!

  • Right on Rupert, right on.

    Offended?

    GTFO, enough with this PC bullshit.

    If the monkey face fits, you can't acquit biotch.

  • I don't know why some people get upset at black people being compared to monkeys. I don't think blacks look anything like monkeys. In fact some people of every race look like gorrillas. It's just a question of features, size and posture, not race. It's kind of idiotic. Bush looks more like a monkey than anyone else. It's his idiotic little smirk.

  • @carloss1960 Plus...if you shaved a monkey or gorilla or ape...or any animal..the skin wouldn't be black. Racists should try this experiment.

  • You know what upsets me...fat people. Someone should do something about it. SHit while were complaining about shit, what about...all these damn people. Someone should take care of that.

    WHy she got fired, cause she made herself known. SHe had no power to defend herself after she became "famous" so it was easy to point her out and place blame on her for something.

  • you question your bosses, you risk your asses

  • no i'm not surprised. sounds like a good chance to get into ruperts deep pockets tho.

  • you complain, you get owned

    haha

  • Welcome to America black man, now if you want to make it you must become docile, submissive and quiet. Remember to laugh at those black jokes, that lets them know that you're one of the good ones. Cut your hair and conform, feel free to hold your tounge and keep your problems to yourself. Pull yourself up by your bootstraps and put on your best white voice b/c it's time for token to speak.

    Welcome to Amerikkka

  • sucks that your comment is true

  • wow, that was good!

  • Yeah, welcome to the place where idiots like you will claim a cartoon about an ape must mean a black man. Racist.

  • And this newpaper Comany is owned by the same person who owns FOX NEWS well that explains everything

  • This was cold blooded.

  • what happened to freedom of speech,,,good thats what you get for complaining

  • lol...what happened to her freedom of speech to complain?

  • Seriously. Latina chicks are HOT!

  • racism in this world....it makes me sad. And makes me even sadder thinking I'll have kids someday that will live in this world.

  • Well, just worry about people they have as friends, their neighbours, their family these are the people who will shape their lives.

  • she was having sex with that chimp

  • Who the fuck reads newspapers anyway?

  • That was the NY post, wasnt it? Let me go unsubscribe to that channel....

    It took them long enough to fire someone. & the minority at that. More proof of their racist antics. I'll never buy one and I emailed all my friends in NY & they no longer buy it either.

  • This is sick. This reminds of the whole Danish cartoon controversy, initiated by the Islamofascists. Only in this case the whole commotion over this cartoon was initiated by the liberal fascist political correctness police. Fuck the libs for contrived PC shitwolf screams, and fuck the republicans for just plain douchbaggery.

  • How crazy. Not one person got fired for the financial melt down in this country. In fact, they got promoted. Unbelievable, to say the least.

  • lol they fired the person who complained. I hope a racial minority fucks Murdoch's wife or mother.

  • Murdoch's wife is a racial minority you dumb fuck.

  • Um . . . I really don't think that chinese-americans are facing a great deal of discrimination in this country. OF COURSE the ape was referring to Obama!!!

  • While you have a good outlook on the issue of the comic, I think you're wrong about Chinese Americans. They get discriminated too. History doesn't even make record of the Chinese who came here, built railroads, drilled through mountains & helped settle the Wild West. For that matter, name the highest public office held by a Chinese American. I honestly can't. Can you?

  • That was the 19th century. But up until the 1960's, black people had to go to different schools, use different restrooms, drink from different water fountains, and sit at the back of the bus. These rules didn't generally apply to chinese-americans. With regard to the public office question: it could be due to the fact that chinese-americans make up less than 1% of the population whereas blacks are around 12-13%. (given I am not including asian-americans in general).

  • So somehow, that's NOT discrimination?

  • okay you're right. The only group not discriminated against are white Christians (maybe only white protestants). But I do think that blacks have it the worst (Hispanics are a close second)

  • You're lying. The ape was refered to as the WRITER, for at least the third time, and therefore COULD NOT be Obama. The only reason you believe it to be Obama is because you really dislike some organisation and want to call it racist. The evidence is 180 degrees the opposite of your belief.

  • Nice try. But your thesis ignores the actual implications of the image. Don't be daft.

  • No liar it doesn't. The implications of the image are that the writer of the bill was a mad ape. The writer was for the fifth time NOT OBAMA. So I ask again, how is calling a white man an ape racist?

  • 1st of all, I'm no liar. Keep it above the belt. 2nd of all, you can easily cherry pick facts to suit your premise. Any idiot can do that. But it takes minimal insight to see & acknowledge something very simple in American history: Black people have routinely been called "monkey" by racists. Stop parsing semantics & start examining racism mate.

  • You lied, so you're a liar. It's got nothing to do with fighting clean and everything to do with the fact that you don't like facts. I'm not "cherrypicking" when I state the facts. It's not that I select facts that discount your statements, it's that all the facts do so. I never denied that black men are called monkey by racists, I just denied that this was a case of that, and wasn't. The person called an ape was not black. It's not semantics to say that, not that I'm anti-semantic.

  • Dude, you're in no position to challenge my integrity; no position at all. Yes, you're cherry picking. Sure your comment bears some veracity but it lacks this nuance: Obama is he point man when it comes to the stim.

    Your remarks also lack analysis of a simple fact: America's racist history has record of Black people being called monkeys.

    Why are you denying that?

  • I am in an excellent position to challenge your integrity because you just lied again. I NEVER denied there was a history of black people being called monkeys. Never. There was NO nuance, the cartoon specifically referred to the writer as an ape, not the person pushing it forward. The fact that you got "Obama is a monkey" merely indicates the thought was in YOUR head, not theirs.

  • You are just another fucking racist. Stop acting like you know what the intentions of the author were. Moron.

  • The intentions were clear in the original cartoon. It clearly compared the WRITER of the bill (and again, it was a white republican IIRC) to an ape. Obama was not mentioned or referred to directly or indirectly. The fact that you believe that only a black man could be refered to as an ape says something about yo7u.

  • If it was so clear, there wouldn't be such a big controversy over it. So it isn't as clear as you think it is. Stop acting like you know what the author was thinking.

  • So because someone makes a controversy that means a completely clear message is unclear? What happened is a lot of politically correct liars choose to ignore the plain meaning in an attempt to silence their opponents, real or imagined. Have a look at the cartoon and tell me if it says anything about Obama, directly or indirectly.

  • The point is that I don't know what the intent of the author was exactly and neither do you, although you sure do like to pretend like you can read minds.

    The difference is that I say I don't know, whereas you are quick to defend the author even though you couldn't possibly know what the author was thinking. See how your reaction can make someone think you are a racist?

  • No the difference is that whereas I base my opinion on what the author meant by what he said, you base it on.... what? There is nothing in the cartoon that calls Obama or any black man an ape. To say that I'm racist because I don't believe something for which there is no evidence insults people who aren't racists. Calling me a racist doesn't create evidence that the writer meant anything racist and since you can't find any, STFU.

  • I don't have an opinion of what the author meant you big MORON, it could have been either or.

    What are you basing your argument on again? I'm sorry I must have misunderstood, you're basing it on what? What he said? LOL ahahahahaha

  • So basically you're saying that I'm a racist for believing something without even thinking it's wrong. How's that work? The author said something specific and that's what I base my opinion of his meaning. If you don't have an opinion on what the author meant how do you know I'm wrong? Are you saying because you're too stupid to figure it out I must be? Because that's moronic in itself.

  • No I'm saying you're a racist because you're so quick to defend this guy even though you can't possibly know for a fact he is innocent.

  • I can know for a fact that he's innocent because every fact about this case says so. But let's take the idea that I can't prove he's innocent, how does that make me a racist rather than someone who disagrees with you? How is it that it's ok to condemn without knowing but it's "racist" to defend without knowing? You simply want to punish someone without evidence for an offence even you admit you don't know happened. You're evil.

  • It's not okay to condemn without knowing. My point of view on it is that someone who is trolling youtube defending this guy with no good reason is probably a racist. I don't want this guy punished, I want Rupert Murdoch punished for firing the accuser. The cartoon should just be investigated and the author of the cartoon should be interrogated. It's not for me to say whether he's innocent or guilty.

  • You have got to be kidding me! You don't think it was race-related! You're either extremely dense or in serious race-denial (but I'm guessing your white, so its probably the latter) The fact that the only minority working there was the only one with the sense to see the cartoon for what it was unfortunately doesn't really surprise me. But for you to defend the paper speaks more to your racial views than anything else. Anyone with half a brain can see what went down.

  • IT's a fucking cartoon poeple its supposed to offend people.How money times has bush been in cartoons as an ape?? yeah a billion.Its no big deal even if it was meant racist its NO big deal(says the australian blackmen-me-)

  • It is all about business.

    His network and news division in general have their "niche" where they are basically the right wing outlets. Therefore, the gloves are off when criticising Obama, racism is OK.

  • That may be so, but where is the evidence that the cartoon was racist? It was aimed not only at a different man than the black guy but arguably a different PARTY. So how is calling a white guy an ape racist?

  • I think the people who found the cartoon to be racist are the racist ones. Why would you compare Obama to a monkey?! Racist fucks!

    hahahaha

  • maybe she was fired for some other reason? just putting that out there. Maybe in the next month or so they will hire another editor who's a minority? just putting that out there too.

  • .. stay classy san diego ..

  • liberals are all for free speech.... as long as they agree with what you are saying

  • This young turd must be racist. Why would he think they were comparing Obama to a monkey just because he was black unless he were racist.  The thought would have never crossed my mind?

  • You're like, really dumb. Monkey is a racial slur and mostly all white people

    know that.

  • she hasn't sued yet?

  • oh my god, I loled so hard

  • In fairness, e don't know why she was fired. BUT we can take some inference. In even more fairness, if it were profitable to be "left", Murdoch would do it. By virtue of that fact, I can't buy into Cenk's underlying premise about minorities & the presumption that they're always "left. But again, track-record goes a long way.

    In any case, stay classy FNC/NY Post.

  • Comment removed

  • Since when the name "Sandra Guzman" sounds African American? That just goes to show that some ppl should not be allowed to comment.

  • Great news. Fire the racist.

  • SHE is the racist?

  • Comment removed

  • Yes she was a RACIEST. After reading and seeing the cartoon, for anyone to say such a thing is a raciest. And she should have been fired for making such an accusation, an accusation that only a raciest could make.

    You are a buffoon.

  • did you pass your english class? dumbass :)

  • Typo. Also, learn to capitalize the beginning of all sentences... in English. Dumbass.

  • Okay I will capitalize dumbass. But I have to agree with your original comment.

  • Isn't English nice when done properly?

  • Nein, nicht wirklich Ich bevorzuge Deutsch.

  • Sorry, I don't speak freaky-deaky Dutch.

  • Well that's lovely and all but I only speak German & English.

  • Kraut. I bet you're from a town named "Auftachevin". Aren't you? C'mon, tell the truth.

  • JK about the "kraut" stuff. I hate racial pejoratives of any sort. But "kraut" is so fun to say.

  • Calling someone a kraut isn't too offensive to me and my family never minded it. I am telling the truth and I'm from Munster.

  • It's not so much the word, it's the malice. ie, it's saying "I hate you for being born German (as if you can control that)."

    I've even heard people try to attack all German for Nietzsche's bullshit.

    Of course those attacks are silly because all Germans don't think like Nietzsche. On the same accord, no 1 gets to pick their "race" either.

    But a slur is a slur in my book. The intent was obvious too. That's why the cartoon was so offensive.

  • Yeah I understand what you mean. Yeah I have had people attack me being German for that reason and honestly I don't know much about the man so I cant say anything about him. I have been called many things because of my family being a well off German Jew family so when others say slurs to me they don't bother me too much because it just shows their ignorance. ....

  • Well, I'll let you discover Nietzsche all by yourself. I won't judge you for it. For what it's worth, you should NEVER have to apologize to anyone for being well off OR for your bloodlines. You don't choose either condition any more than you choose your face or your 1st name.

    But still, "kraut" is just a fun word to me. My dear friend Arrmond is half-kraut so we have fun joking about men with thick necks named "Detlef" & "Gunthe". We're silly.

  • By the way it's dixondukes I'm just on my cousins account and I didn't notice until afterwords.

  • Yeah, Youtube is a great source for intellectual debate and proper English. If more than 1% of YT commenters has an IQ above 100, i'd be surprised.

  • Regretfully, I believe you're correct on all counts.

  • FYI, I was directly quoting the comments. It wasn't exactly a typo but more like a problem w/my own syntax in quoting. My bad.

  • He should complain to a Human Rights commision or something. That is fucked up! What is the official "reason" for firing him from NY Post?

  • WWDS.....Working while dark-skinned.....serious offense these days!

  • Well, the name sounded more latino than "dark-skinned", but of course, I don't know. Maybe a more inclusive title would be WWNW (Working While Non-White). But that's the OBVIOUS reason (Well, calling out the racism was the obvious thing that got him sacked). I'm talking about on official papers that are open to the public, kind of thing, so that the public has the "right" idea about Murdoch and his companies and won't name him a racist fucktard.

  • well hispanic people are darker than whites, so I just classified blacks and latinos into the same umbrella!! I know I know, poor me!

    He must have stolen a stapler by accident!

  • So in other words it's not WWNW at all, it's what he said about the cartoon. What he said about the cartoon was moronic and against her bosses interests. That's not racism it's common sense. Fucking up your bosses business while claiming something completely untrue gets you fired if you're white. It's not racism that it does when you're not white.

  • may not be racism, but its still an unjust sacking and here in GB its illegal because of that (well, is "supposed" to be illegal anyway)

  • How is it unjust? She made claims that damaged her employer and that were obviously wrong. Why would she not get fired for that?

  • OH SHIT....ECW EXTREME........I missed ur crazy ass!!

    Are you a woman or a REALLY submissive male that wears embarassing leather outfits with a ball gag in ur mouth? I'm still wondering!
