Default Im not racist but this is disgusting

Take a look at this video which is intended to stamp racism out of football.

YouTube - Anti-white 'Let's Kick Racism Out of Football' Advertisement

Now that comes across to me as very anti white, if it was the other way around, there would be a massive uproar.

Sorry it just angered me watching this.

Agree 100% - total joke, totally racist against whites and you know what. I don't care the slightest. Do you know why? Cause I'm comfortable with what I am Racism, whilst it exists, is 95% self-victimization IMHO. You can chose what you find offensive.

And you are also 100% right that if this was the other way around it would be hell on earth.

The text had been around for at least 20+ years, a black guy i worked with used to leave copies of this around all the time, he moulded himself in the image of the black panther movement (or at least he thought so).

All i ever used to say to him was when 'we' (Black & White) bleed we both bleed red so what does that tell you.

Yes, the advert is racist IMHO and will only stir up bad feelings.

White people made the advert I think you puffy pansies.

How about trevor mcdonald calling that manning comedian a fat white *******. When the UK wouldnt say sorry for the slave trade white people where up in arms. When white people make a advert about anti racism white people are up in arms again. So touchy.

I thought the PC crowd said you can't use "black" any more, it's "person of afro carribean origin" and you have coffee without milk or cream and use a chalk board

your wrong....it doesn't, not in real life.

If i walk up to a black man and say "hi blackie"....thats a problem

If a black man walks up to me and say "hi whitey"....thats not a problem


If i touch a womans chest thats assault

If a woman touches mine, its a little forward


Simplest way to understand it - racism isnt a problem, unless its a problem. That advert is not a problem because no white person gives two hoots (in fact the only "issue" people seem to have is that it DOESNT work the other way, not that the actual content is offensive)

Of course, if you are white and offened by being called "whitey" then explain that and i doubt anyone would persist in doing it to your face.

seems to be the fact that you cant reverse it........lot of white people here feel quite threatened by the minorities. To be fair, maybe they work in an environment where they are on a more even par with such people day to day and so worry more than others? Office cleaners, Mcdonalds staff?

OK, let's look at each point:

1. I didn't see anything that stated that black people were superior to whites, that being black held better opportunities for acheivement over whites or that black people had the right to rule over whites

2. It didn't promote a doctrine of discrimination based on the above

3. It didn't incite hatred or intolerance

Unlike the Snug Rhino's comment above, which is certainly covered by 1.

1. The colors that the white man is described as having are quite derogatory and would make many whites feel upset. Being blue, pink or red from sunburn all carry negative connotations. Even us whites would tease someone for being these colours.

2. The black man was clearly laughing at white people in that advert.

3. It clearly does.

I don't know how some of you people manage to function on your own without some kind of medical intervention.

I will admitt that its basically impossible for a black man to be called racist. The blackie, whitie comment, is very true.

If I walked down the road carrying a sign saying I hate white people, I would be laughed at, I hate black people and I get arrested.

But put your sign down and you are fine....however, the black guy still gets stopped and searched (unless he's listened to chris rock and is with a nice posh white friend )
