      Quentin Tarantino making characters that say the N word over and over or are involved in erotic foot fetish scenarios and then casting himself to play those characters.

            I don’t know his reasoning and I have no idea what kind of person he is, but I’d rather do something uncomfortable than ask someone to do it.

              Nobody had to fucking do it, have you seen Pulp Fiction? It’s an entirely unnecessary, and incredibly lame attempt at a joke

            He seems more like a guy who never got past the emotional age of 13 than a racist. He probably really loved setting up a situation where he gets to rattle off an edgy, shocking round of nonsense in front of the whole country and giggle as people get offended. Your offense is probably playing into his pleasure more than the particular word he used.

            Lol, you think black people in the states want to be called “negros” or “negroid?” Lmfao.

            Come on over and try it out on a crowded street. I’ll be very excited to video tape for you.

            OK, I’ll give you a small benefit of the doubt that “negro” was the common and accepted term, but that was a long time ago. Even still, it literally just means black, so your point is really stupid. You’re saying Americans refuse to call them black and only call them black. It’s stupid as fuck.

            Also, for the “negroid race” thing, race is made up. Black is almost certainly more accurate than that shit.

            Finally, one last thing, calling people black is far from an American thing. It’s the norm around the world (using the native language’s word for black usually).

            explicitly types out several different slurs for a minority group

            Insists it’s because Americans are racist

            Yeeeeeaaaaahh literally none of those slurs are okay to use

      Kind of like that part in Genesis where Abraham his wife and presumably God all show that they have a cuckolding fetish while they engage in multiple cuckolding/blackmail schemes?

          Nope. Abraham and his wife Sarah. They like to go to other cities pretend like they weren’t married and then when someone fucks Sarah then God makes the bull pay them money. Happens multiple times. Really fucking weird. Abraham liked watching people fuck his wife and presumably so did God.

            Abram does it once in Egypt saying, “Say you are my sister, for you are beautiful and if you say you are my wife, they will kill me.” There’s no explicit language stating that Pharaoh took her to bed, but it could be inferred, in light of the following text.

            Then Abraham does the same shit with Sarah at Gerar. There it is explicitly stated Abimelech does not take her, and is given 1000 pieces of silver (to the brother) during the exchange.

            So weird to obscure that story in such a way. It’s okay to not know things. If you didn’t know, no need to respond. If you did know, then why lie?
