Racism can be Fun?


Author: CoreyAllenX
Description: A response to sxephil's video of the same name. Now don't get me wrong, I support freedom of speech and entertainment for entertainment's sake, but words have power. Humor based on outlandish racial stereotypes succeeds at being funny at the expense of many people. My point is: social responsibility is important and even though I highly doubt sxephil is actually encouraging racism, it's this type of thing that can lead to controversial generalizations. ******************************************* ATTENTION: New viewers of this video.... Before you post some pointed, ignorant or repetitive drivel, please know that I am now FULLY aware that many of you feel that Phil was making a clearly satiral or ironic joke. I do not begrudge anyone the right to make fun or jokes of/about trivial things. I have a very sharp sense of humor, myself... What I DID NOT APPRECIATE about the original post was Phil's resorting to low, insulting stereotypes... Namely, his insinuation that all black men are on welfare. I simply made the observation that there is/was little difference between the exaggerated stereotypes phil was exploiting and the ones that inspired the minstrel shows of the past. Furthermore, I thought it was irresponsible for someone of sxephil's visibility to be advocating racism with a title like "Racism Can Be Fun!" That's the long and the short of it. Anyone who claims to be able to argue the assertion that racism is or can be "fun" is not someone whose view or advice I'd take stock in. **

And also I would like to announce that your statement " those images have plauged african americans " and the way you went on about what happened years ago has been dubbed " retarded " by a lot of black people I know. They also said you need to get over it . It happened years ago and you probably make jokes that hurt other people. And if you realise it or not he was making fun of stereotypes AND picking on people is as bad as racism and EVERYONE has done something like that at some point. RELAX

Seriously " COREYALLENX " please fix that IRRITATING noise . Oh and by the way, sxephil was joking. I don't know why you chose to take it in an offended way. It's a joke . It may have been " racist " BUT not in a hate filled way. Racist jokes happen. I call my friend Nigger and he calls me white trash. Not everyone is annoyed by " racism " as long as its either in good humour or as a joke. He may have been making a joke that doesnt mean that he hates Black people. Do me a favour and chill out.

DUDE IT WAS A JOKE CALM DOWN. He was kidding and,4 the record i would like to let you know that i am black and from Africa, now u can not seriously tell me that you dont like fried chicken, like koolaid, and like basketball (im gonna skip the other 1 because i dont no if ur into white chicks or not) Now if u answered "Yes" to any of those statements then u need to STFU. ur talkin to much about an issue tht was taken lightly till your video. One more thing i had never heard of those ppl till now.

Phil was making obviously just poking fun at the stereotypes, you cannot honestly believe that he thinks all black men enjoy chicken, basketball and banging white chicks. i think you may be taking his joke a bit too seriously.

You allow sxephil to have his freedom of speech and don't criticize him, so let CoreyAllenX have his freedom of speech as well. All of you who are telling him to calm down are hypocrites because if you are getting worked up on something that doesn't effect or offend you. CoreyAllenX might be getting worked up on something, but this something does offend him. He did not say anything offensive in the video, he just stood up to what he believes in.

haha weblab is funny and i agree with him

You said what you felt and that was fine but he was not in any way condoning racism he was more making fun of how racism is stupid and pointless.

sum1 was being steriotypical?! NO WAY THIS NEVER HAPPENS!!

hey weblab1, GO TO HELL ASSHOLE

you are a stupid fag that can't understand a joke. If anything he was making fun of the stereotypes, not condoning them.

I respect your right to your opinion, but I need to correct you on a thing or 2... I have never seen a video of sxephil's where he spoke about mexicans or asians, but had I, I would have spoken up. I actually HAVE told everyone who is around me (friends, coworkers etc) that I do not and will not accept that talk in my presence and they accept and respect that. I believe if you don't, you allow racism to be perpetuated.

I'll follow your lead... Please do the world a favor and stay off the internet

wow. you need to move on!

this is rediculous.u can say w/e u want but hasnt he said worse about other races?where were u then?

It was a fucking joke. Calm the fuck down... I bet you laughed your ass off at the mexican / asian jokes, but when it comes to blacks you freak out? Calm the fuck down bud.

its a joke dumbass, take a chill pill

real mature asshole.

Why don't you shave your face and kill yourself nigger

You are not related to the X-Man, Malcolm X. Please stop doing that. It's dumb. You're just as bad as that idiot whose video you are criticizing.

First, I appreciate your ability sound educated. But come on man! if your speach was any slower you would be speaking backword!

I agree with you here. The guy was trying to be funny but just did not have the finesse to pull it off. I sort of understood the joke of it, but it fell way short and could easily be thought as a re-enforcement tool for ignoramuses to continue to think negatively towards us blacks.

Yes... Well I think I have a renewed sense of this after running into a man who actually DID believe some of the things that are touted in Phil's video.

I see where you're coming from... I just think you're being a bit cynical. Phil doesn't strike me as unintelligent or a racist. I also think his statement was sufficiently extreme so that it was clear it was not meant to be taken seriously. In the end though, this sort of stereotyping will reinforce the views of those who already believe it, and simply be a joke to those that don't.

The thing that amuses me about most of the responses that have been in your same vein is that PHIL never said his video was satire on anything. Personally I doubt he has the finesse or subtlety to actually make a satirical video about the topic of racism. What he did was make a video that endorsed ignorant stereotypes without any attempt to explain his purpose. I wouldn't be surprised if he does actually believe the things that he says are facts.

its true racism is ignorance.the people who are racist are usually uneducated, lower class, cock smokers. that being said their are racist people in every race. i am what people would call 1/2 and 1/2. white and black. ive experienced racism for being each. wtf? people.next why do most people only use racist comments when there are not people of that race within earshot? because they are pussies who want to seem cool and funny but who actually have low self esteem so they have to put others down
