what was racist about the title? it had the word jew in it, but since when is jew a bad word? i think the racism is coming from the administration in this one!

[FQuist]

The word was being used as a derogative insult, not as a compliment or a neutral description of someone. If I edited out a the word in a neutral description of someone it might have been racist, but here someone was obviously trying to slur someone by calling him a jew. The use of "Jew" isn't bad, its context was.

[Michael]

it's context? so you are saying that electropizza is a bad context, that's deffinatly a personal attack. <-joking
how was the context bad? it's not like he called him a crappy jew or something. and the rest of the context was "attn" and "electropizza" and niether of those are negative....one is neutral and the other one is mildly posotive. (;

I reported the post (yes, I did) because to me it clearly seemed that KillerPolo was calling Electropizza a jew. The word jew was thus used as an insult which is racism.

Freedom = good
Too much freedom = bad

I didn't capitalize jew because that'd be grammatically wrong.

[KillerPollo™]

Too much freedom = bad



Such a thing do not exist you intolerant. Are you a religious?

[LittleFreak]

No I'm not. And why am I intolerant?

[KillerPollo™]

No I'm not. And why am I intolerant?

Well thank goodness you're no religious! You're intolerant because you appear to be putting your subjective preference on my freedom of speech.

I think religeon is dumb, it causes so much stupid fighting. But this isn't a topic at all about that, just go revive one of them in misc. stuff.
Too bad you're banned and can't have some fun arguments with me/them......you can still read here though, and you can also still post private messages. [:

What about using an instant messenger Michael? =P

..to answer the topic ( although it has been done ): There is nothing wrong about the word 'jew' or jews, or whatever. Duh. However, that guy obviously is racist against jews. He used it as an insult, which is obviously not as much a PA against the person it's used against but rather an insult to the jews. Kind of like saying "wot u stole something in a shop u must be a (-) (-)h".

And there is such a thing as too much freedom because humans are idiots.

[NovaStar]

I don't see how the words Attn and Electropizza are racist. It's just saying "Electropizza can I have your attention" o_O.

[Grytolle]

*sighs at ShadowRabbit* The word was used as an insult, btw. But I can't think it's any worse than saying "you god(-) banana". Jew is a neutral word, and so is banana.

[Fawriel]

But since the addressed person is <s>most likely</s> not a banana, one can conclude that it was still meant negatively by the person and bananas all around the world will be sad because their name has been used as an insult by someone who apparently thinks that the word can be used as one.
