[quote name='DarkRider23']I'm going to say I have to go against you on all of this. The Black American Male seems to be the most annoying type of person on line. Maybe you've had bad experiences with White American Males, but I've had worse with Black American Males.
Every single time I enter a Gears of War match, I get some random Black guy telling me, and I quote "You gona lose, $$$$a." At that point, I just retaliate with racial slurs. He can use $$$$a, I can use $$$$a.
All the racial tensions in games that I play are started by trash talking black guys. Occasionally, I'll start a racial war over a gears of war match or something because I've run out of stuff to say, but for the most part, I'm not racist.
Don't even get me started on the Brits. The first thing Brits do is attack me for being American. I'm sorry for actually living in the USA. It's as if I had a choice.[/quote]
Hmm. This is going to spin the thread again. (but the obvious is that he just typed it as a direct response to what I typed but I will give it a go anyway on the off chance that he is legit.)
But I have to disagree. I am not white so I dont know how Brits feel towards them. But Brits never argue with blacks. I played soccer my entire life. So I interacted with more people from overseas than most people. Never had a single problem with any race or culture and that carries to online.
Why do white people even feel the need to use the word? Who cares if black people use it. Its not a insult to white people. So why do you feel the need to also say it.
I personally rarely ever use it. But I feel its extremely childish for a white persons excuse to say it is "Well he said it.....I want also."
Every culture has a certain way to talk, every culture has certain things that they say or do to each other that is considered harmless but offensive if said by others. I listen to Mexicans call each other a set of Spanish words that I can only assume are either on the same level or just under what the word $$$$a is for blacks. But I dont feel the need to say them just because they do. Thats also holds up because I am black. Just beacuse I am black doesnt make me feel like I have to use it non stop. Again...I actually rarely use it.
The word $$$$a doesnt come up for whites unless they go out of your way to use it. Again. I have been around a lot of different cultures due to my soccer career. I have heard tons of racial slurs by groups to each other. Never did I feel the need also say them. I simply accepted that its cool for them to say and not me.
Final thought. To me using an obvious hot topic word just because "someone else can" is completely childish. There are more racial slurs in the world than just the N word. There are many words on the same level said to different cultures. Are you now going to make it a point to find and use every one just because that can? To that I would have to say grow up.
Also to start a race war for any reason what so ever makes you a ing douche bag. Being racist isnt something to just play around in because you want to feel cool. I mean seriously. How does this sound. "I star race wars on XBL." Yeah but I bet your never said a single word to a anyone other than your friend in real life. And that goes for any race and any person. If you were a black guy starting a race war against whites, or mexicans, or brits, or mulism. Racist is Racist.
