Jun 6, 2018 literally everyone whether you realize it or not since it's been socially engrained in human beings for an extremely long time
Jun 6, 2018 that is what we call common sense in Australia. Your gonna ace the citizenship test if u ever take it.
Jun 6, 2018 I haven't gone through reading all the posts in this thread, but I just wanted to say that this is like how my dad and several other people 50+ years old in my life think. They dismiss hip-hop with no valid reasoning and racism. It honestly sucks, but they're too stubborn to change and I don't like getting into arguments with them because nothing ever changes.
Jun 6, 2018 d--- i'm glad i don't have this. i played takeover by jay z one day and dad was like "fucken whats this mate give me a bong ya poof". he likes pusha t, kendrick, kerser, jay z and eminem now. among a handful of other songs.
Jun 6, 2018 And I don't really understand it. He loves a lot of black artists from the 80s. The Commodores, Earth Wind & Fire, etc. He's just an idiot when it comes to race and very dismissive. The type of guy that thinks there's a difference between "n***rs and black people," as he would say. Right. I can't comprehend how stupid some of the s--- is that comes out of their mouths. You never get through to them when trying to explain it either. It's like they have this cemented belief in everything and refuse to adapt. A week or two ago I got into an argument with my dad about the Sterling Brown case (NBA player police brutality case that's getting a lot of attention now) and all he could say is "well if you respect and listen to the police nothing like this would happen. The original video even showed him being reasonable with them, but my dad wasn't budging. It took until the recent videos that got out for him to tell me "oh s---, the officers should definitely be disciplined."
Jun 6, 2018 Yea I get that all the time too. "WHY THE f--- DO THEY SAY IT IF IT'S SUCH AN OFFENSIVE WORD TO THEM??? WHAT DO THEY EXPECT?? THERE'S BLACK RACISTS TOO!!!" and i'm just like chilllll......... it's a song man lol.
Jun 6, 2018 Even worse is the "well they shouldn't be allowed to call whites crackers" or "I get offended when someone calls me cracker" crowd Like u know when someone says that they're racist, severely out of touch with reality, or both
Jun 6, 2018 d--- that sucks, my dad taught me to treat every race equally as s--- so it's not racist and that chinks can't drive and are s---

Jun 6, 2018 I get that a lot too, it's nuts. I can't count the amount of times I've tried to explain it to him. Even my grandpa, (on my mom's side) who lived in a time where there were colored bathrooms and segregated everything, can adapt - and even bowl in leagues with - several black people, but my dad can't even distinguish between the n-word or cracker. It's just annoying.
