    @Big Cuntry ur whole post I see is about the n word I wanna express that I dont understand why pple wanna say it. How is it cool?

    But like u said teaching is in that case 10times better than calling them a racist for no f---ing reason when the intention isn't bad

    The difference is Gucci saying he hopes people die of corona virus isn't targeted at any tangible group of people. Is it in poor taste? Sure. But corona virus can happen to anyone. The trans community on the other hand is a tangible group of people who has been persecuted, tortured, and murdered throughout history in our country.

    There's nothing wrong with making a joke that has to do with trans people or gay people or whatever...but the punchlines of those jokes are often just, "ha ha, trans people exist" and that's the problem. They're not even really jokes, they're just demonstrating the comedian has a 1980s-level understanding of the LGBTQ community. And this is coming from someone who thought that, other than some obvious bad low-hanging fruit, Chappelle's last special was funny!

    You talk about going after the people who have explicitly bad intentions, but my country is still plagued with covert racism. That doesn't make it better or worse really. Allowing people to go around making racist jokes even if they "don't mean anything by it" simply reinforces racist notions in society, whether it's conscious or not. The goal is to change people's attitude toward these things by encouraging them to use other words or explaining why something has a harmful history. Like I said: educate, not cancel.

    the n-word is just an obvious example. You can apply it to many other situations. But US race relations/gender is far too complex to explain in a few forum posts lol.

    I can see the difference and I get what u mean I just really dsagree w ur statement that its bad to make a joke about a group but its okay to make jokes about thousands of pple dying everyday just because it isn't about transgenders or other people lol.

    Humor has always ben a coping mechanism. And considering COVID is something that we are all affected by whether we live in the USA, Netherlands, Saudi Arabia, Algeria, the UK, or Australia; whether we're gay, straight, trans, bi, or anything in between; whether we're black, white, asian, arab, or latino...this is something we're ALL in together. It's a joke pertaining to the human race in general, all 7 billion of us or whatever.

    I'm not arguing it isn't kind of a tasteless joke and I'm not knocking you for not finding it funny. I personally don't wish death upon anyone as I don't want that negative energy in my life. But an image that says "I hope my haters die of corona virus" with gucci standing on a car shirtless flexing and then the caption says "happy easter"...that is a work of shitpost ART to me. That should be preserved in the twitter HOF. All the pieces fall together perfectly—but that's just my sense of humor.

    Think about it this way: How would you feel if he said "I hope all white people die of corona virus" or "I hope all dutch people die of corona virus." That would probably sting a lot more, wouldn't it?

    Naw I didn’t know Nate, I knew a girl that was f---ing him and she stole the cds. Those were just unreleased songs. I had TES in Jan Or Feb of 02. I think it came out in April. That wasn’t through the girl though. I did lose the cds but it was either from a flood or moving. I don’t know how to be exact. I just went through all my s--- and couldn’t find them and figured, that’s how it happened.

    Also fun fact, the girl put me on the phone with Nate once and he freestyled. He started the rap with “me and my n***as on the block....” I said nothing, only laughed my a--- laugh off and gave the phone back to her.”

    The funny thing people seem okay with using other racial slurs. The whole thing is about weaponizing any joke that someone used against them and mostly at the same time being a hypocrite about it, not about using some derogatory word. People should be able to make jokes about anything and that whole shtick about finding every little thing offensive is boring, counterproductive and r-----ed. People are occupied nowadays with a lot of meaningless stuff that doesn't get us anywhere rather than focusing on bigger issues. I'm sick of people falling for those tricks to sow division and resentment on both sides.

    thanks bud, definitely find that musically we have very similar taste and all glory to the time period of the 00's. Also strangely enough we both hate/d the f--- out of michael scott. still can't believe i found his fucken mugshots online after i see an email in my inbox from "david gregorat" and googled it....

    aslo @M Solo i feel i'm probs a bit "weird" when it comes to relationships - always find myself disliking them real quick, (not so much the gurl) just the relationship factor. have a very strong work ethic and it ALWAYS feels negatively impacted when in a realationship/pursuing one. I pretty much embody that "being depressed is a luxury, i don't have the time to sit and think about being depressed i'm that busy lol" - 50 cent. Not looking for advice or anything, just curious if you feel similar at all? especially considering you mentioned you're in a 14 yr relationship

    I agree with you in a vacuum 100% but in my country there is unfortunately too much history of racial tension and oppression that we still are working on today for there to be anything remotely resembling a level playing field.

    But yes I agree that people often fixate on strange things that don't really matter.

    Thank you, we didn't need to back and forth for the tenth time tbh this was all that I was trying to say. As for the topic in general we don't always agree but both acknowledge its mostly because of our (cultural) differences.
