quote from hippiemom
There are certainly plenty of opportunities for black people in the music world today ... if few of them have chosen to play the sort of music that I enjoy, that's their prerogative.
as I said, its those stupid blacks who arent taking advantage of the opportunities given them.
I mean, why dont they play some rock music? Instead of that rap racket crap.
Essentially thats what you said0 -

it's says nothing like that. first, it doesn't say no blacks can play rock, it says few choose to. second, it doesn't say anything about how they should play rock music or rap is bad, just that she prefers listening to rock music. did they REALLY give you a degree?0 -

Hey whitey, your hero Dave Chappelle had a whole skit blatantly making fun of John Mayer playing guitar and how the majority of black people don't like that music. But obviously you know more than Dave Chappelle about black culture. You are white, so you are smarter than Dave Chappelle I guess? Is that why?0 -

we were talking about rock music in the posts, so thats what she was refering to.
Are you high or something.
Why would you post and then act like I am racist and even call me racist, then be as stupid as to post something racist aboout yourself.
For the record, if you think it isnt an uphill battle for an allblack rock group to get signed or be successful, you might want to call nurse ratchet
Dont call me racist. expecially if your comments are way more racist than anything I said.
I posted statements about blacks and whites and said who is more oppressed. I never said all blacks were one thing or all whites were one thing. Thats not me
On the other hand Hippiemom posts some silly trash that rock music isnt more accepting of blacks because THEY DONT PLAY IT or GRAVITATE TOWARD ROCK
Give me a king sized break
Thats a Bo Diddely and Chuck Berry break, not elvis break0 -

Or is this just your racial stereotyping getting in the way of common sense, yet again?
you hate italians dont you! you fucking racist! your dirty guinea hating white supremacist! why dont you just start the final solution again hitler-lover!?0 -

And you didnt do the same to me.
I have been called many things in my life, commie, radical, freak, hippie, socialist, anarchist
but being called a racist, when clearly I feel that whites are indeed the devil and that blacks are the victim of oppression and racist hierarchy.
What planet are you living on.
I am an antiracist activist, whose heroes include Malcolm X, MLK, Garvey, and others.
I dont know too many racists with Malcolm X posters on their walls0 -
dont presume you know me, and dont tell me how I feel. I will tell you that hippiemom.
Dont act like your some innocent bystander here.
Calling me racist and crap.
What the hell is wrong with you?0 -

Well, you've been caught. In your FIRST post in this thread, you made a list of 50 items that white people are born with AUTOMATICALLY! That means you think EVERY white person is born with those 50 qualities (no matter what situation they are born into).0 -

our discussion was of rock music and who deserved the title of king of rock and roll.
So obviously you were suggesting that rock didnt have more black musicians, because blacks dont play that type of music.
We werent talking about opera, it wasnt mentioned, neither was rap. We discussed rock and blues only. Obviously you werent talking about blues...
Dont lie. You posted it, stand up and admit it.0 -

I did not call you a racist. I said that you made liberal use of racial stereotypes. You didn't say that all blacks were one thing and all whites the other, but every single one of your examples portrayed blacks as poor and uneducated, and whites as wealthy Ivy Leaguers. That's you talking, not me.
As to my comments on music, I said that few of today's black musicians have chosen to play the type of music that I enjoy, and that is true. I don't see them having a tremendously difficult time breaking into the music industry though. It is YOUR value judgment that led you to conclude that being a rock artist is somehow "better" than being a rap artist. I never said any such thing, because I don't believe that to be true.
Oh, and by the way ... if I ever feel like calling you a racist, I will. Don't try to tell me what I can and can't post. I will post whatever I like."Nothing in the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity." ~ MLK, 19630 -

Wow you caught me, by saying that, I did indeed say that all blacks are poor and live in the ghetto and all whites drive BMW's and are rich and are ivy leaugers.
Yep just by saying that quote you posted above?
Are you high?
Where in the list of 50 does it say ALL WHITES or ALL BLACKS and more important where does it day in my posts that ALL BLACKS are poor and ALL WHITES are rich.
If your going to post please give some evidence. I hate being misquoted. Especially when people are too stupid or lazy to do research.0 -

You are the one consumed with color. Hippiemom thought Elvis was the king of rock. She did not say, "Elvis, the white guy, is the king of rock." That is what you inferred, because you can only see color. When you look at Chuck Berry, you see a black man, while I think Hippiemom sees a musician. When you see Elvis, you see a white man. This is all very obvious based on the arguments you are making and turning a simple discussion about music into a race issue.0 -

And dont tell me your not a racist. I told you I am an antiracist activist you have yet to show your true colors.
Maybe cause its all white and hooded and included burning crosses, lynching and castration!
Dont tell me your not racist if you are indeed a racist. Own up to it. Is good to admit things.
I mean, after all, those blacks they are too stupid to get a rock band together right!0 -
