Mark Cuban:"I know how I'm going to vote, but I'm not ready to comment on it."

[jilla82]

I get that

But why would a Jewish man fear a regular black man the same way he fears a neo nazi



How do people not see how that's offensive?

where did he say Neo Nazi?
He said "white guy w/ shaved head and tattoos"...There are a lot of white people that fit that description and arent Skinheads.

He just proved his point the way you all went directly to Skinheads w/ his description. Thats your own prejudice.

Hilarious...all I have to do tonight is wear a hoodie and I'll instill as much fear as a potential neo-Nazi

Thank you

Thought I was the only one who caught that

People in that top tier of wealth are the biggest xenophobes and bigots ever.... but the way it was presented will have alot of people overlooking the juxtaposition....because he didn't "single out blacks"


b-bu-but he wasn't just talking about blacks.... he said he's scared of scary looking white people too!

 

[DonFrancisco]

So he's not a racist......just an elitist bigot. That's probably just as bad since most minorities come from impoverish areas and many don't rock a "clean cut" look. I can say from experience I would probably not care is I saw a black guy in a hoodie or a white dude with a shaved head and tattoos. He's probably the type of guy that says poor people need to work harder and that all of them are just lazy.

Which begs the question, a lot of those Mav players, would Mark Cuban EVEN be in the same room as them if they weren't talented in basketball?

It is funny, he's admired by so many people but by his own admission he's pretty much a scumbag who in all reality would probably avoid interacting with and let along hang out with the working class.

Read between the lines man

I love how one filthy rich white person is how you determine every white person in America is.

The irony in a thread about prejudiced.

Prejudice -
preconceived opinion that is not based on reason or actual experience.

You're assuming I'm using Mark Cuban's words as a base for my rather thoroughly researched opinion. As stated in my original post, I don't care for Mark's words. Stop throwing around edgy words that have been thrown around for so long they lost their original meaning without knowing their true definition.

The only problem I made was saying all instead of what I usually say - most.

 

[kevthesureshot]

Wasn't that rant over 20 years ago?

yep. they just tryin to change the topic

 

[mrken12]

Photoshop experts, I think you know what to do with this one

That scene still is hilarious.

yep. they just tryin to change the topic

And they claim that WE can't get over stuff.

 

[jadillac]

So Cuban's gonna run to the other side of the street if he sees a black dude in a hoodie....but if he stayed until he got a little closer it might be one of his own players.

standard issue protocol in the "how to deal with racial debates as a caucasian" handbook

 

[Panther]

this is kind of why I dont get the outrage.
If people cant speak openly...how does anyone expect things to change? Every time someone says something certain groups dont agree w/ they become vilified. He clearly said we all have our prejudices....why pretend like we dont?

I dont know where yall are from...but in the fall/spring a black hoodie w/ baggy jeans is the uniform of cats doing dirt.

so what do you advise people to wear when its cold? I mean people everywhere wear hoodies, from middle school thru college. We supposed to wear tenchcoats to make other people feel safe?

 

[DrX]

Lol these r the ppl that we depend on for employment , that run our courts, police dept etc.....

But blacks still won't unify, these cacs hate us, and even the ones who think don't... subconsciously hate us

 

[J-Fire]

but why didn't cuban say tatted up black man or something comparable?
why are black people not allowed to wear a hoddie...and every other white dude in college ain't labled a thug?

if my black ass wears that i'm a thug now even at night?!?!? That's why i don't get the hoodie comment.

people will overlook this shyt

to keep it 100, he probably only want's to be around people who are in his tax bracket, and look/think/act like him....and can probably afford to do that.

 

[SpacelySprockets]

What disgusts me are these nikkas on twitter caping for him, sure he made a point that everyone has some prejudice in them.. but the way he went about it rubs me the wrong way. How the fukk do u equate a black person simply wearing a hoody to a tatted up skinhead?

And I hate to use this word but look at these fukking c00ns, and im not even gonna waste my time posting the millions of white people coming out of the woodwork's agreeing with him and people shytting on bomani jones for having the same stance I do, its amazing how social media brings out how people really feel
