There was humor before racist jokes and there always will exist humor that isn't a racist, sexist, homophobic, or so on kind of joke.
Humour allows you to say something without it needing to be one of your beliefs, opinions or stances. What amuses you has no direct relationship with your possible prejudices!
@Scholarly Wisent thoughts on the word "maths"
Meh
Irrelevant
(Talking to Ben)
Always relevant
Whether or not I say math or maths is completely irrelevant lol.
Sounds like you have something to hide
Mate, I'm Alabaman. Guess.
I didnt ask which you use, I was asking your thoughts on the abomination known as "maths"
Math is fun.
The word, not the study
I don't really care.
@Scholarly Wisent if I say "hail Hitler" a lot, I am not magically a Nazi. I am possibly an idiot and depending on the audience I choose - insensitive too.
But not a Nazi. Things like that are all about motivation. Intent. Etc.
I never even attacked racist jokes lol.
?
Surely if you believed that racist jokes aren't racism you wouldn't have quickly jumped to the conclusion that was what I meant?
"A racist joke is a sign of racism but isn't definitive proof of it." @Scholarly Wisent
When you immediately jumped on me for it.
Wot?
I said nothing about racist jokes but that is what you assumed.
No
You make it black and white
I said context matters
It can't be any other way mate.
You said "that's an excuse"
WHAT CONTEXT!? The only context that can exist is the context that led to the belief itself!
That does not excuse the belief!
Let me say this right now mate
I wasn't attacking racist jokes.
I wasn't even thinking about racist jokes.
You did attack racist jokes, you handbag. You called them "a sign of racism".
And jokes were an example I brought up to highlight your retarded claim.
You brought out racist jokes before I even said that you fool.
So?
You assumed this was relevant to racist jokes.
It
Was
