Shuto-uke 05/18/18 9:11:55 AM #53:	The Admiral posted... Watched the video. The guy has a really strong accent (doesn't speak English) and his name is "Peter," which does kind of sound like that slur when he says it. This is why people don't like you. This is why people associate you so heavily with Richard Spencer. Anyway, there is so much wrong with your post I don't even know where to begin. 1 - Having a thick accent doesn't mean that somebody doesn't speak a language. You're saying he doesn't speak English because he has an accent, and that is bullshit. So I take that, by your own standards, Melania doesn't speak English either? 2 - Having an accent is no excuse to insult people. So, if Melania went to starbucks, is it ok to put "Melanoma" in her cup? I mean, it's ok because she has an accent right? 3 - Your argument is so dishonest. You're really going to tell us the starbucks thought a guy's name was a racial slur that applies to his particular race? Yeah, like if a black guy said his starbucks cup name was N-word. Nobody in their right mind would think this is a legit argument, but here you are. <cite>Shuto-uke posted [p:901561825] in Hispanic m...

Dyinglegacy 05/18/18 9:50:45 AM #71:	Speaking of racial slurs. What's the worst one we have for white people? Whitey? Cracker? Nothing else comes to mind. I've been called cracker a few times. It was awkward, considering it was from someone who I didn't really know, but I wasn't offended. My wife works with a black lady who's married to a white man. The lady got a phone call from her hubby one day, and her phone just happened to be in my wifes field of view, and she saw what the lady had her hubby's name set as. "My Cracka" lol! She told me about it and we both laughed and thought it was awesome lol! I guess because whites are the majority or dominant race in the US, it's not as offensive to tag racial slurs to them.
