Indians Fan Encounters a Native American

[Walt]

You could just see the silent rage in his face.

Oh, this smiley is gonna get serious burn.

And this is the perfect time for a flashback to these classics:

 

[Mindfield333]

Yes, white people have behaved in evil ways historically and today. But without white people you wouldn't have the Internet or 100+ things most people take for granted, like antibiotics, modern highway systems, and the DAWs and VSTs that drive hip-hop production. So let's try to keep it positive.

As for Chief Wahoo, that shyt's gotta go. Childish and offensive and stubborn to not dead it.

Old timer looks like he could handle that fat fukk too.

Hope he did.

This is the stupidest thing I've ever read, and I'm glad for humanity sake nobody dapped it.

EVERY race has contributed to what exists or improved upon existing things......and sometimes what you see attributed to one person or group of people was forcibly STOLEN from someone else.

And whether or not you admit it, blacks being enslaved are STILL the backbone of this USA economy hundreds of years later. Asians who slaved over building the railroads, same thing. Every race, whether forcibly or voluntarily has contributed to advancements in the world

 

[GoFlipAPack]

White dude is doing the typical "oh shyt I fukked up, let me try to diffuse the situation and get him to shake my hand"

That's how it all started then they were invited to "thanksgiving". I hope the Native guy didn't invite him anywhere

Granville T. Woods (a black man) invented the multiplex telegraph widely considered to be one of the precursers to the modern internet.
a black man invented the traffic light, good luck using those modern highway systems when everybody is crashing into each other on the main streets
antibiotics? people of all races have contributed to medicine. Percy Jilian ( a black person) created the treatment for glaucoma and arthritis.
Daws and VSTs? okay thats cool. I bet you looked that up using your cell phone (Invented by Henry T Sampson) perhaps the most utilized creation of this era.
everything is connected breh. don't try to act like other people haven't contributed just as much.

imagine how much it would suck it black people didn't exist and you all had to live life without refrigerators and air conditioning.

I hate people

So I wasn't aware, but according to the article that this photo was posted from, there were widespread protests of the mascot/logo that day at the ball park.

From the article:



Here's a quick rundown of the rhetorical strategies at work today. (All of this I personally overheard.)



1) De-legitimize the anti-Wahoo argument itself:

—"It's not racist!"

—"No one thinks it's racist!" (Bold indeed, given the protest).

—"Talk to Obama if you think it's racist."

—"It's a fukking cartoon. Come on."



2) De-legitimize the anti-Wahoo protesters themselves:

—"They're not even Indians." (Quite a few of the protesters weren't Native American. Nice work!)

—"It's funny cuz they all look homeless."

—"Get a job!"

—"Find something better to protest."



3) Legitimize oneself.

—"I went to college!" (???)

—"That guy has four college degrees." (About a fellow, a white male, who looked Robert Roche in the face and told him that his life could not possibly have been affected by Chief Wahoo, then proceeded merrily down the "Fighting Irish" argument line, except with the Dallas Cowboys.)

—(Holding Wahoo hat aloft, a la Catholic Priest) "I'm Cherokee!" —I'm an Indian! I am! My grandfather would laugh at all of you.


4) Legitimize team and logo by really original, clever comparison.

—"Where's PETA for the Detroit Tigers? Huh? Where's PETA?" —"I'm Irish. You don't see me complaining about Notre Dame." (ENOUGH ALREADY.)

—"I guess the Dallas Cowboys should get rid of that team too, because I'm offended!"

5) Baselessly and violently insult protesters:

—"fukk you. fukk you. fukk you. fukk you. fukk you."

—"You're DumbASSes. Hear me? DumbASSes!"

6) Trivialize argument while shifting focus and blame.

—"We're trying to celebrate an American pastime." (i.e. Stop ruining my day).

—"I'm a season ticket holder. Why don't you come to a game before you protest my team." (Many of the protesters were Indians' fans as well).

—From above: "It's about Cleveland Pride. That's all it's about."


7) Outright Wahoo-specific chants and noise-making.

—"Wahooooooooooooo!"

—"Keep the Chief! Keep the Chief! Keep the Chief!

—(Obnoxious Indian battle cry ululation stuff.)

to be honest with you this list is pretty piss weak and basic. the key chain, my nikka? we've got rovers on mars right now. at least look into nasa inventions. blacks have done a number of things for nasa. damn.

You might want to update it because blacks have contributed to way more complex and difficult inventions than this.

For example he mentioned DAW and VSTs (he's assuming the programmers were white, probably didnt even research who the directors were in each company, could have been asian, black, or mixed team), Mark Dean (black man) helped make it possible regardless.

Look up some new inventions dammit.

So you feel the need to agree with me and shyt on black inventors at the same time.
Some of the worst sell out language I've ever seen.
You could of just added to list.
Damn and you have the nerve to say my Nikka?

Feel free to give props to black excellence.
