Should they let people put stuff like this on EBAY
 

someone paid $10.50 for a $.05 bar of soap?

They could have named it Little Honkeys and it would have sold just as fast. thats just a racial slur that has been around forever

Jesus Christ.... :eek7

looks like an old colletable bar of soap. racism was a part of the past in the USA, just a fact of life- most black people don't want to hide that.


Next you'll be telling a Jew the hollocast shouldn't be remembered.........

Get the fuck over it.

i've always wanted some ****** soap

"Little Sambo" used to be one of my favourite stories when I was a kid. Now they've pulled it from all the libraries, of course. Remember the cartoon of the tiger chasing the african boy around a tree until it melted into butter? I didn't even realize it was racist until I thought about it years later.

Yeah, you cant deny the racism happened, and is still happening. That's just whitewashing. (ahem) As long as everyone realizes that language like that is no longer acceptable, then that's fine I think. A collectible is a collectible.

What language? Do you mean "******"? I'd venture to say that black people here the word ****** now more than they did during slavery.

I don't think we need to get into semantics here. People who consider themselves equals can call each other what they like, but people who have oppressed another group and are trying to get away from that oppressive role really should avoid using derogatory terms to refer to the formerly oppressed population.

yes I do make sense sometimes.

Yep, and black people should get all the jobs and not be required to be as smart, and/or as qualified because of their ANCESTORS oppression. Since when does "equals" mean one side gets fucked. You don't have to be a racist to know that's fucked up.

Now posting something that is a part of American history on ebay, big freakin deal.

I worked at a resturant called "Sambos" as a kid. The main dining room had the Sambo story printed all around the walls in graphic detail - the tigers, etc..

That was a pretty large chain resturant like Perkins or Country Kitchen.. and that was in Iowa of all places...

who the fuck cares!? only dum ass people with no time on their hands give a fuck about any of this shit, i could sit round with black people i know and blub out the word ******, kinda feel bad but they wouldnt care, just like if they called me a stupid cracker fuck, i wouldnt give a dam. i would go drink my beer and think about how good it tastes instead of looking across the room at some black dude complaining.

I agree.

X takes the square.

Personally, I don't like much censorship, but eBay does have a policy on these kind of items:

Look at the last word in that paragraph. If I made a repo of the little ****** soap today, they don't want it.

That's how I take it anyway.

These are historical items, that's why they are allowed. Denying the past doesn't make it go away.

In many countries other than America, the government does not allow you to have free speech when it comes to history or politics that they don't like.

If Americans ever give up their free speech rights, like many of the Europeans have, then we are really fucked.

I agree with Mr. Fiction.

Blacks, call each other ******s all the time. What's the big deal?

Either it's a horrible word to make the strongest men blanch or it's a commonplace peice of street slang. Can't be both...

Black Americana is highly collectible. Check out my coin bank.

People are waaaaay to PC and pussified. If I say anymore I will just get pissed...

How dare you have "Plumper" content in your sig! You should be ashamed!

Dictionary def. rac·ism ( P ) Pronunciation Key (rszm)

The belief that race accounts for differences in human character or ability and that a particular race is superior to others.


Well duh , anybody who doesnt believe in racism is foolish then.

Of course race accounts for differences in human character and abilty, and of course some race's are superior to others in certain areas.

DAD-
"Nope son i know toby looks different but he is the same as you"
SON-
"but dad how come toby runs way faster and has a bigger nose and curly hair"
DAD-
"Nope no difference son "
SON-
"but dad i dont understand toby DOES have a bigger nose and maybe its just a coincidence but it seems to be that every black person i see seems to have a bigger nose than me"
DAD-
"nope just your imagination son"
SON THINKS-
