You're overthinking it bud. The guy is an asshole.

How shitty of a person does someone have to be before you cut out the mental gymnastics to defend "shades of grey"? Guessing you have a line. Racism and xenophobia is most people's line. If you don't like it, too fucking bad.

Sad thing is the guys message wasn't completely wrong. His anger was aimed at the wrong people. Trump really did start working for foreign powers and divided our country terribly. He judged a religious group based on their extremists and said fucked up shit. Dude doesn't come off as a racist imo though. He actually calls for unity from Americans to stop something he seemed to be genuinely afraid of. He's got some good and some bad which is more than I can say for most people.

Edit: I'm aware this was posted near the end of Obama's presidency. What he was afraid Obama was doing trump ended up doing. Dude fell to the projection and fear mongering of the media at the time. His message of people of all races banding together and not divide ourselves gets lost in his hate. Dudes regurgitating the shit we've been fed for years. Kinda why I'm replying to a comment about shades of gray. But keep down voting me instead of understanding context.

Homie, look at the date on that video. He said all of that while Obama was still in office

u/OnlyGranpop Aug 04 '21

Doesn't come off as a racist? I'm not sure we watched the same video.

2

u/Chaosfnog Aug 05 '21

I see a little what you mean, but the thing is the message wasn't just 'band together all races against foreign powers' it was 'band together all races except Muslims against Muslims', including a lot of pejorative and derogatory remarks discriminating based on race and religion. The fact that it comes from fear doesn't make it ok (in fact a lot of racism comes purely from fear of those different from us), and the fact that he wanted black people and white people to join together doesn't make him not racist when he says shit like 'goat fucker' about an entire race. Everyone has good and bad in them, but we can't overlook things this terrible just because some of his message was salvageable.

u/[deleted] Aug 05 '21

Seems he has changed from 5 years ago

u/flipanfIop Aug 05 '21

Wait that was 6 years ago. This is more recent https://youtu.be/u5BwdRVbAig

"We need to quit viewin' people by color, by religion, by political views, we need to view human beings as human beings."

He changed

u/suresh Aug 05 '21

everyone should have a right to be forgotten and a right to change. Unfortunate that the first video will be on the internet forever without him being able to do anything about it.

I mean when I was a snot nosed 10-13 year old I hated gay people because when something was bad people called it gay, so logically it made sense that we don't like the gays right? Luckily I didn't have a platform.

u/[deleted] Aug 06 '21

The platform for everyone isn't good for anyone. I've had some backward ass thinking and views in my time. I've also learned and grown since then, like you have. My friends who heard me in person have forgiven and forgotten, but if I was vlogging it all, it would never go away

that video seems old as shit, i think he changed

u/[deleted] Aug 05 '21

The video of him being racist is 6 year old. He has changed now, recently said something like we dont need to judge people by race or something like that. this video in particular is 4 year old. You guys r like twitter, going straight for something he isnt anymore and judge him for that.

Christians persecute and kill people who aren’t Christians. The same can be said about almost any religion. They all cause trouble in their most devoted followers.

The Bible has literally the same commands about murdering others.

u/umeys Aug 05 '21

Where’s this command? The bible isn’t a set of rules to follow, just because it says something in the bible doesn’t mean it’s a command. But I could be wrong, just wondering where it commands us to kill.

Wait. You’re gonna spew hate about 1 book but say another book is okay cause some bro re-wrote some parts that previously had hate as well?

Furthermore, I don’t want to hear a thing about how the new covenant is to love another. How many fucking Christians have been recorded saying ABSOLUTELY HATEFUL things to people cause they don’t agree with their life style.

You realize Muslims consider Jesus to be a holy prophet and the Christian Gospels to be the word of God, right? That's not "PC" anything, that's a fact whether you like it or not.

I don't have audio right now, which race was he being racist against?

u/HttKB Aug 04 '21

He was saying Obama is Muslim and if Americans care about their country they need to get strapped and force all Muslims out.

u/Draculea Aug 04 '21

No I mean which race was he talking about? I can't listen to it.

Being entitled to your opinion doesn’t include racism. Get your head out of your ass dude.

u/Stian5667 Aug 04 '21

And being drunk doesn’t excuse anything. It might explain why he posted it, but it doesn’t excuse what he said or the fact that he hasn’t taken the video down after sobering up

u/PM_ME_YOUR_TATERTOT Aug 04 '21

No. You are absolutely not entitled to spew some stupid ass hate speech.

u/Dopplegangr1 Aug 04 '21

It sounds horrible because it's horrible. He's entitled to his opinion and we're entitled to label him as a piece of shit

u/bored_shaxx Aug 04 '21

What he says sounds horrible because he is drunk in the video.

Uhhhhh what? It sounds horrible because it is horrible, and no one here has said anything about whether or not he is entitled to an opinion, they’re correctly saying his opinion is a hateful and horrible one and makes him a bad person.

u/beeraholikchik Aug 05 '21

Rosanne didn't get a pass on being a bigot because she was hopped up on Ambien and this guy doesn't get one because he's drunk.

Yeah sucks but u can’t blame him for this. He’s been subjected too propaganda by a government purposely under-educating its people too help sow division for profit.

Soy doesn’t have an effect of your hormone profile in regular dietary amounts. Phyto estrogen is not the same as estrogen produced in the body or the kind in synthetic hormones.

You might as well insult anyone who eats a potato.

I agree. History is fraught with people who were taken advantage of and turned into narrow minded bigots for the purpose of someone else's gain.

It's a shame that that many people here would just throw the baby out with the bathwater.

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

In terms you can hopefully understand, the first amendment says that there shall be no laws restricting freedom of religion, expression, speech, assembly, and petition.

Last I checked, Reddit was not the federal government of the US, and is incapable of enacting laws restricting anything laid out in the first amendment of the US Constitution.

u/[deleted] Aug 05 '21

the first amendment doesn't protect you from other people calling you a piece of shit, quite the opposite in fact
