You do know what it means when you 'assume' something, don't you ? Racism depicted in classic fiction of it's time is a different can of worms than spewing such nonsense in a Public Forum, and the OP hints at nothing of the sort. Get out with your bad attitude, or take a class in how to use your brain to argue, not assigning behaviors that are actually irrelevant to the topic at hand.
May I also suggest that you take your bad attitude toward anyone who disagree's with you elsewhere. This forum deserves better.

It's not the words it's the context that these are used in. Censoring the words is over the top but locking or deleting an idiotic post I'm good with.There was a recent thread with the Jewbal thing and some idiot used the words "final solution" in the title since liquidating people systematically is just so damn funny. Overall I'm glad they clamped down on these forums. |

Hmm, I won't bet against you. Either case, it's a nice subject for discussion. And I'm still curious what CCP founds their censorship on, I mean they still don't even allow us to post the name of the player that ousted T20.

Kijo Rikki wrote:To be perfectly honest with you, the word 'Jew' isn't offensive in and of itself, it describes an ethnic group perfectly and I believe most Jews would proudly proclaim themselves as such. The problem with the word is that many bigoted people have begun using it as though it were an insult, which puts the perception in some peoples mind that it is an offensive word, as evidenced by your post.
Strictly speaking, 'Jew' does not refer to a race but a religion/ethnicity. Most Jews are of the Semitic race of which Arabs are also members but people don't associate being anti-Arab with being antisemitic.
You can no more be 'racist against Jews' than you can be 'racist against Amish' (another Ethic/Religious group). (PS: just because its NOT racism doesn't make it OK)
The term 'antisemite' is so misused as to be trivialised. I've heard Israelis use 'antisemite' as a general purpose insult much like that word beginning with 'b' and ending with 'd' which refers to someone born out of wedlock. I've heard (Jewish not Arab) Israelis insult OTHER (Jewish not Arab) Israelis by calling them 'antisemite'. How much sense does that make??

The similar thing has happened to the word 'gay', its meaning as of late has gradually shifted away from meaning a person who is attracted to the same sex to a someone or something or some event that is just really stupid, thanks to its frequent use by the youth of America.
I think its wonderful that the word 'gay' has, once again, been subverted.
The word 'gay' was 'repurposed' by the homosexual community and now its being 'repurposed' again. Some people are unhappy that the word 'gay' can't be used to describe happiness any more, because it was 'stolen' by the homosexual community. So now we have the word 'gay' being repurposed again in a way that the homosexual community doesn't like. Maybe one day the word will come around to its original meaning and when people read literature from the days before 'gay' meant 'homosexual' they won't wonder what on earth the author is on about! "What a gay day!"  (Larry Graysons catchphrase which, arguably started the whole thing).

So is Mohammed, but you can be killed for drawing a picture of ANYONE of that name...
I just had a student named Mohammed and he didn't want to be called by that name preferring his middle name, *******. I guess if I drew a picture of him in a bear suit I'd be in big trouble.

The problem is that no one in CCP is gay or jewish or black, so its hard for them to tell if anyone goes too far. Also no one in CCP is Mohammad or Jesus so religious slurs are thrown about.

Trying to explain that to this person is a waste of time. However, well done. |

good enough for me,
Bleh I got other things to worry about than concerning myself with unimportant things like what the OP is talking about.
seriously, "Sticks and Stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me." or you can be like me... "hurt me with that stick I'm gonna break your face with it, but call me a name, i'm gonna laugh at your face for it." |

If you see any racism posts on our forums, do not hesitate to report it. Talking about racism is usually give birth to wave of controversy, like "what the word is racism and what the word is not". Topics of this nature is not appeal to refrain from racism but trolling.
