Well that's a joke I can't tell at the office.

Rest in Peace, Patrice.

Just on the racial aspect, Louis' mother (or father can't remember which) is Jewish. So Louis discussing the etymology of the word 'Nigger' is tantamount to Patrice discussing the word 'Kike'. Obviously Louis does it in an absurd way for comical effect. But beyond that, even if that wasn't the case, we need to push past this bullshit and laugh at each other because we're all pieces of shit, so we should get along.

On another note, my favourite part is Ant's "Jesus...!"

Aside from being hilarious Louis CK is a mexican , and who really cares what a mexican says about the blacks?

@ZforChaos

Louis wasn't trashing anyone. It was a joke about how understanding where a racial slur comes from doesn't change the fact that it's offensive to many people.

its just like.... NIGGER WAS A FEELING!

[Vagitables]

I'm black and that was so fucking funny I love Louis & Patrice. RIP :(

Shit typography spotted

[Chitenza]

Man the seriousness that Patrice let on passionately. Then Louis CK came in and pulled the rug. I ended up cracking the fuck up so fucking hard. Did not expect that. Im black by the way...so that was hilarious.

@MQM5k umm, arent don't most mexicans partly descended from the Spanish?

[chiggies7]

@ZforChoas, oh please Patrice was the furtherest thing from an uncle tom. He just called people out on their nuanced bullshit no matter what colour or race they were, and most people (like you) don't like being told who they really are.

[ZforChaos]

@Brotassium00 No that's what people like you do medicate so they don't have to deal with reality.
