We were just discussing how some ethnicities can and do repeat jokes about their superior gene spreading skills (once you go... you never go back..), their bigger penises, and how badly other ethnicities don't dance well because they don't have natural born rhythm, and why only good things can be said about that ethnicity OR ELSE...

When all of a sudden somebody posted a slightly negative metaphorical joke about that particular ethnicity (and another post about 10 other ethncities). He did it to prove the point, and I agree with him. The post that had the 10 other ethnicity jokes wasn't a problem for anybody and not surprisingly is still online for everybody to laugh about. After all, things are funny because there is an element of truth to them. The post that isolated the ethnicity which nothing negative is allowed to be inferred was turned in by a member of my board to IHUB admin. The poster of the joke lost his grandfather status on IHUB, and my board was moved to "Pay Only" premium status and the post removed.

I guess it was a self-fulfilling prophecy. We knew damn well we can't make a post implying anything negative about those people even if it is just a metaphor, and we proved it. Racism is the policy of the U.S. government and it trickles down to all its subsidiaries. The folks who placate them and uphold this unidirectional racism are just as guilty.

I think it is time for me to retire from my IHUB days anyway.. I'll come and visit your board from time to time and say hello.
