This is what im talking about, you cant make the comparison that its okay to do ww2 jokes as a german, because you dont have an attachment to it, however maybe your grandfather might, and he might not find it funny if someone who didnt go through the same things was making jokes about it, especially if they are the "outsider". There is just something different about you joking with friends, and some person who is foreign throwing stuff in your face because they think its funny. Its not that i was expecting it, actually like i said before i watched their videos because they were entertaining, but i didnt find that specific part entertaining, i thought it was just a distasteful joke, its offensive, im not at home crying because of the joke.
Even in this case below, you knew you were getting into a comedy act, yes, pretty much know everything is off limits, yet it doesnt take much for someone to be offended, and in this case, a black male was quite offended over it, why? I can only presume that it was because he was white and using the N word. He is a foreigner to this man, why can he use those terms? idk, i probably wouldnt had said those things, but hey, they were said anyways, and to his audience nonetheless which consisted of a mix of people. But it makes it okay right? because he is a comedian, and he is allowed to say those things, because its in the name of humor.
I am baffled how can anyone consider avoiding to say gook to asian looking people as a white man not racist. This is litterally the definition of positive discrimination.
A korean saying gook to another korean - fine
A non-korean saying gook to another non-korean - fine
A korean saying gook to a non-korean - weird but fine
A non-korean saying gook to a korean - homygodwhyareyousoinsensitive
It's based on race/nationality. It's racist to make a difference.
prejudice, is prejudice, doesnt matter if its race or cultural differences, still offensive, dont offend people when they are your target audience.
Either way, was just trying to show my point of view, and get other peoples, im not upset if you dont share the same views, i cant change you. But id rather make discussion than shit post like Tiberius. Still hasnt learned yet how to post.
