Has anyone seen that Seinfeld where Jerry gets mad at another comedian becuase he felt he converted and became jewish "only for the jokes". that was a funny episode. "Antidentite"
Anyway back to the topic....

How can you POSSIBLY understand racism until you've experienced it.

How can YOU possiblily understand reverse discrimination.
Yes, I admit that it is more often worse for minorities. It must be hard being judged by a few bad apples and having to bare the burden of their actions. But ALL people get discriminated against in one way or another.

I think that black comedians that appeal and direct their comedy to the "ghetto people"(ie. not chrirock, bill cosby..etc). Give black "ghetto" people a sense of pride that these people need. By putting down white people, it gives these under-educated, under-privledged blacks a sense of pride and feel better about themselves. Unfortunately, some whites tend to get offended by the continous verbal assaults on our culture. Those white who get offended say it is black comedians/black people, when it really is only the blacks who need to be reassured about themselves and need to feel better about their situations. One thing leads to another, and normal black people start thinking it is ok, but still get upset when we want to do it too.
PS, this is just a hypothesis

Heres the deal.....White people make fun of white people better than anyone else...because they're white......Black people make fun of black people better because they are black......and so on....it is what it is..............the whole deal about comedy is to make light of all the bullshit we all have to go thru in this day and age....THATS WHY IT'S CALLED COMEDY....I feel bad for the people who take all of those comedians seriously , they are being funny.....Comedians were put on this earth to help us deal with the bullshit.....and it works for me
