trolling success!

That's a very long bow to draw indeed. But you may have my stars.

free time! He's doing other things to ya know.

"too" I don't know if it's that common but we'd call everyone Todds and Ashleys by default in the midwest.

Todd Bridges stalked my girlfriend for a while. She still has his number.

OR that painting

You're not going to be that guy are you?

Im always going to be "that guy."
I think its a fair question.

I just get the feeling that if this was a white guy in blackface who was imitating black mannerisms and culture, you guys would be up in arms about how racist it is and whatnot.
I mean, its Snoop, and he can do what he wants, Im just interested in where you guys stand on all this stuff.

I know this is supposed to be a white guy, but it this really supposed to be "white mannerisms" and "white culture"? Basically, it's Austin Powers without the accent.

For one thing, he's not in fucking whiteface, you piece of shit. Whereas people in blackface are in fucking blackface.

You've already demonstrated that you're too stupid to understand little things like context or history, so I'm going to leave it at that.

I honestly never expected poetv would be hit with a "there's a racial double standard" guy.

Mr. England for the English.

Its how black people perceive all whites to behave, it seems.
In any other situation, this would be considered a racial stereotype.
But only white people can be racist.
When black people don "whiteface", its hilarious, satirical, and a great observation of the interactions and divisions between cultures.
When white people don "blackface", its an abhorrent, racist display of bigotry, and stereotypes like that just go to show you that racism is still alive and well...etc.
Theres a new term Ive seen being used now to describe this, "cultural appropriation" I believe its called.
Ill say it again, only whites can be racist. Or thats how it seems to be these days. The hypocrisy seems to only just be beginning.

I know Im in stark contrast to the majority of the users here, Ive been a daily visitor for 7-8 years now. You guys are an outspoken, intellectual bunch, and thats why I like you. But the amount of white guilt/hate on here has always stood out to me. Im just trying to understand it.

You are espousing the positions of literal racists and literally retarded people.

Think on that.

Let's not leave it at that, lets delve deep into this exploration of opinions.

Hes using makeup to lighten his skin tone and wearing a blonde wig, what else would you call it? Does he have to look like a powdered donut for it to be considered whiteface? Its a noticeable enough change, its obvious what he was going for. Is it ok just because hes a celebrity?

If some white guy appeared in hastily-made blackface, mockingly using a generous amount of ebonics, and was advertising a fake dating website akin to blackpeoplemeet, would you still think it was hilarious and witty?
Something tells me you guys wouldnt approve.

Im sorry you consider the acknowledgment of hypocrisy retarded.

I don't approve of you being this stupid on the internet.

Not without a license, anyway.

Ares, what you're saying is so god awfully dumb, it's coming from such a corner of fundamental cultural illiteracy that it's really quite hard to take you seriously.

I want to believe that you're trolling, but based on your belief that England is becoming "Englandistan" I think you might be more Daily Mail than what we normally get around here.

At the moment, I don't have time to engage your thoughts on why this is as bad as blackface and how black people are "allowed to get away with" stereotypes. Maybe another time.

Your reliance on ad hominem and lack of a constructive argument tell me everything I need to know.
If you're worried about people being stupid on the internet, you should go to this place called Reddit, its full of idiots.

I still love you though. Just stay another night, I promise we can make this work.

Im always open to discussion, baleen.

Talk about timing. Look what just popped up in my "Random Video" frame?

http://www.poetv.com/video.php?vid=58470

I even submitted a replacement video.

Maybe you should watch this, TA.

I don't get it. If he's in whiteface, why do his eyes look Chinese?

Hey-O!

I'll be That guy.

Fat girls are allowed to talk shit about thin girls, but thin girls who make fun of fat girls are just being mean.

Check your thin privilege, ashtar.

TimidAres, you've hit one of this site's blind spots. You can get more mileage out of pointing out the vices, biases and double standards of Fox News, Christians, Americans, The West, whites, the rich, heteros, etc etc. Everyone will love it.

Those other people's vices, blind spots and double standards:
bad

Poetv's left-of-thou vices, blind spots and double standards:
not vices, blind spots and double standards

I think having a double standard about mocking the other race is a nice consolation for being able to gun them down in the streets with no consequences.

Call it Affirmative Snark.

Do you understand the kind of person that Snoop is making fun of? As white guys, are you saying you are offended by this stereotype? Because that says a lot more about you, what you identify with, and your senses of humor than it does about whether or not this is "whiteface" to be dissected as a cultural phenomenon and tradition on par with centuries of segregation, racism and mockery.

Blackface is a really old tradition entrenched in the idea that black people are subhuman caricatures to be mocked. This is making fun of white bros with nice cars with horribly stupid .com startups that they hope to get rich off of. Do you see the difference there?

As for being "left of thou," smart guy, I appear to get it from all directions on here, and I don't mind.

P.S. stop ruining a funny video by being a white guy caricature. You are a disgrace to your people.

i'm not offended by this, jesus christ

I do love all your bleedin' heart "fat girls can talk about skinny girls shit" though. Build a shrine to it.

Can't unsee that now.

Awwwwwwwww
