Default What's Wrong With White Americans? - 29-07-07, 10:40 AM

****mods can you change the title for me to - What's wrong with White Americans?


Whenever I play against Americans on Xbox Live I always end up leaving the room because a lot of these motherf-kers are either extremely racist or at least sympathetic to racists.

They always drop the n-word, then start chuckling amongst themselves and you just sense that these guys have a deep-seated hatred/fear of black Americans.

The worst thing is most of these guys pack major heat. They're always discussing their AR-15s and other major weaponry they keep in their homes.

My question to the AAs is: how do you deal with these mofos, do you guys even interact with white people?

Stick up and others... Is racism in online gaming a 'problem' if so ho big do you think it is.... Stick as a matter of interest have you complained or made the hosts aware of the racism you experienced? If so what was the response...

I wouldn't say its a major problem. It happens now and again.

Playing British people I've not had racism. But with the yanks - its hard to describe it, I think they have a really deep fear of the African. It signals that things have not changed at all.

Complain? Lol, I'm not gonna give them the satisfaction of thinking that I give a shit. I just leave the room.

White boys are so scared of getting beaten up in real life they use the safety of the net to pop shit. It's a cowardly move, but what do you expect from them lol .

yeah the internet allows these clowns to say things that they wouldn't say in public.



racism never went away, political correctness just removed many of the overt displays of it.....
sorry that it took your gaming experience to realize this , Stick up Kid.

Thats why thiers a friends list. Put "minorities" on friends list and play with them. My headsets are off most of the time anyway, I hate talking and playing at the same time.

I'm still puzzled as to how they would know you were BLACK if you're on the INTERNET playing an x-box game???? Do people take breaks in between games and tell other gamers their family history or something? Its quite the contrary for me, I'd assume that you were WHITE and start yelling "cracker" at you during the game seeing that your residence was in England!

____________________________

I'm still not surprised about the incidence though. Even on THIS BOARD, amongst other Black people whenever someone gets upset with a Black American person they yell other racist comments at them too! Maybe they don't use the word "N-word", but the stuff they type implies that AA people are stupider than White Americans and STUPID IS the definition of the "N-word". I've seen too many comments on this board about AA people being stupid, being 3/5 a person, having a "failed" community, being slaves to White people, being ghetto, gangbangers, etc.

I think this issue was brought up on the Don Imus thread? If other BLACK PEOPLE can make generalizations about AA people being "slaves to White empire buliders" then why can't White people voice the same opinion about AA's being BENEATH THEM?

When I worked for Panasonic back in the 70's some of the White techs asked me to go shooting with them. I asked them who they intended to use as a target. They thought that was real funny. So we went to this railroad trestle after work and dropped these little Panasonic parts boxes into a stream 20 feet below and shot at them with pistols and rifles.

We live in a country whose existence is based on genocide and all of these palefaces know who did it but it is swept under the rug and ignored. The racism may not be as blatant as it was in the 40's but don't pretend that it is gone or will be any time soon. I don't doubt that people that are into constantly competing at games want somebody to beat more than the average paleface. So if you choose to expose yourself to those kind of people it is rather silly to complain about it.

I think spending money on an Xbox is a form of losing. I wouldn't pay attention to a game that wouldn't run on a normal computer.

These insults weren't necessarily directly at me. Its a term the fools use to address anybody that has annoyed them: two people will be arguing about who shot who and next minute it will be: 'shut up you f-cking n-i-gga....etc..' Sometimes it even makes me laugh.

Its like the worst thing you can be in the world is a n-i-gga.

LOL

I've noticed it as well. Even on other forums I tend to choose a name thats African orientated and it irks something in a lot of them. Had a chat with an Amer-indian girl on one forum about them in general which was fun but yeah., being on the net they feel safe nough to chat crap. Even got turfed from one (game) server by a bunch of italians bstards.


Black Lion is... Agu Bu Oji in Igbo, Simba nyeusi in Swahili, the name of a hospital in Addis Adaba the capital of Ethiopia.

One of the founding principles of America is the gun. White Americans believe in that. It's one of their gods. Historically the gun is what allowed them to take over the world. That's why many of them go hunting. Most of the blacks who go hunting are in the south. It's a kind of light military training for many of them and a right of passage, not to mention a good way to save on groceries.

I would say that its more that these kids want to see a reaction from whoever they're insulting. Its sad that the best way they can think to do that is resort to the racial slurs of their parents and grandparents. Notice how they only use it when they're losing as well. I think it says a lot about white kids and their sense of helplessness in society as well as their inherent, unconcious racism.
