Jeremy Lin says "racist players have called him coronavirus"

[Family Man]

Don't say nikkas like you black.

Calling an asian "coronavirus" is not racist. Racism is the belief in the superiority of one race over another. A brotha saying that isn't trying to imply superiority over asians. Its just a joke.

Calling a black man "AIDS" however is racist because its trying to imply black people are more sexually promiscuous than other races.

What if an A-rab called a black man "ebola"? Is that racist?

 

[avon barksdale]

Bet Lin be saying nicca tho

 

[Budda]

This. We can talk about Asian people being racist towards black people with no problem. That's fukked up, and calling Jeremy "coronavirus" is fukked up too.

If the discussion on racism doesn't involve white people, things start to get in all directions.

Yes and if you want to make that discussion completely fair, then a lot of what posters say on here about white people shouldn’t be said at all, since it’s ‘racist’.

same energy?

Who else has bottom of the social economic ladder, most stigmatized, most manipulated, most affected by the prison industry, built the country and its wealth....getting taken advantage of by asians, Hispanics, whites and others... yet most used for a scapegoat type of energy??

Yeah these weird ass dudes are trying to be overly contrarian without context really exposes who they are and where their beliefs truly lie.

None of this has anything to do with my point tbh.

This and Trez with the "bytch azz white boy" comment last year in the bubble its trash talk but they'll try to switch it and make black folks the face of racism.


Lin knows this too so why would he stress this and bring it to light. Maybe cause Melo hated him when he had that three week run while on the Knicks years ago

 

[Floyd Pinkerton]

is Lin still doing in the league?

 

[Black Lightning]

There's a lot of posters in here caping for Lin.

 

[Savvir]

they probably didn't mean it in a racist way. It was more than likely trash talk

imagine a white player calling a black player monkey

"but not in a racist way..just shyt talking"

What it is is identity politics culture coming back to bite black people in the ass courtesy of the same white liberals and intersectionality c00ns in academia that fomented it. Black people need to stop falling for the okeydoke.

Black vs anything is the new narrative, people don’t like the attention blacks get for standing up to racism, so when the most trivial things happens to them they will say but ‘if it was a black person the response would be different’, or ‘We went out marching for you, and you don’t support us’.

It seems a bunch of people went to the BLM marches so just they can throw it back on people and say but we went out marching for you this summer...

Yeah I've been noticing asians lowkey getting jealous of black folks because of our presence in the media and of black mens success in the dating field but theres also a grudging respect as well its weird

Racism is the dislike and hate of another race simply due to race.

No its not. Here's the official definition of racism according to Meriam-Webster (the leading dictionary in the world on the English language): Definition of RACIST

As you can see it has nothing to do with not liking another race. Its about believing in the superority or inferiority of one group versus another.

Saying "I hate all black people" doesn't make you racist. However, if you believe black people are less intelligent or capable than whites then that makes you racist.

Obviously.

White supremacy has elevated all races above black. That's why other races can be racist. They have been enpowered by white supremacy to be a buffer group inbetween whiteness which has been placed at the top of the racial totem pole and blackness which was placed at the bottom.

yeah cause he's only lethal about 1% of the time on the court

some mild defence and he's rendered as dangerous as the flu...
