And in an ''off the cuff" comparison, he compared a black male in a hoodie to a neo-Nazi with a bunch of tattoos.

He revealed his true feelings.
But the whole point of the interview was that he acknowledged those were his true feelings and they were wrong,

Poor choice of words no doubt, but bruh you reaching like shyt. Did you even see the entire interview?

I agree with everything you post. But honestly as savvy as Cuban is he should have known that in the day and age of 140-character twitter sound bites that context and message is irrelevant. People will hone in on the sound bite and crucify you for it.

Cuban's critical thinking went out the door when he said a piece of clothing makes a black kid an undesirable.

i'm just giving him time to explain before i unfollow him on twitter etc. and maybe join the fight.

would a young black guy wearing a hoodie into the workplace with the shirt and tie deserve to be fired? ....but the whites, latinos, etc can wear hoodies without issue?

He was using a stereotype that is fresh off everyone's mind as an example:leostare:

How can you not comprehend the point he was making? shyt isn't Shakespeare:snoop:

He still has those feelings and he's not going to change them. Most white supremacists know that their beliefs are wrong and twisted which is why they try to rationalize them by embracing extreme racist stereotypes and running with propaganda like the "knockout game".

why is this so difficult for people to understand? we're not upset about him admitting that he's prejudice, that's no surprise to many of us here. it's the fact that all a Black person has to do to arouse suspicion in Mark is have a hoody on, a white person on the other hand has to have the appearance of a neo-nazi, leaving no doubt that they're trouble. a white person in a hoody wouldn't arouse suspicion in Mark but a Black person in that same hoody will.

smh at anyone defendin' cuban on some "id do it too. we're all prejudiced" shyt. even that statement was true, that still wouldnt legitimize the racist thinking making its way through cuban's lil' brain (and that of other powerful racists). and it's not just an innocent, insignificant little thing. In any other decent country, the unemployment and incarceration #s facing a significant portion of the American citizen population would be a cause for crisis and concern. but b/c the significant portion just so happens to be black, it's alright to just ignore the problem, on some "those nikkas (not fellow American citizens, but nikkas) deserve what they get". it's been a century and a half since slavery ended, but white people still want to believe black people are a detriment to society and incapable of freedom. it's not as prominently articulated in Cuban's remarks, but you can definitely hear it if you listen close enough: "of course, the bestial black being, incapable of self control, is prone to lose control and give in to his nikka urge while walking down the street in the middle of the night. The man could be a 45 year old black construction coming tired from work, but fear him. The man could be a 16 year old basketball player, tired from a long day's of practice, but fear him. The man could be the 25 year old who just bagged your groceries at Whole Foods, but fear him." fukk cuban, fukk white supremacists, and fukk their delusions.

Wow I totally fukked that post up. New at posting. My take on it was his message is "I recognize I have these feelings and I have to proactively fight against them." Whereas a white supremacist thinks his feelings are fully justified and will use them to further his agenda. Maybe you got a different take from the interview? When it comes to racial activism we need to be careful about lumping everyone in the white-hood wearing swastika-tattooed category. In many ways, the insidious institutional racism that pervades America is MUCH more dangerous than the hillbilly kind...but my impression was that Cuban recognizes this and is actively trying to combat it.

The zimmerman thing revealed the whole cowardice of the emasculated white male. A 30 year old fat 200 lb grown man felt intimated by a teenager from the safety of his car, then proceeded to get his ass whooped by the teen and killed him out of shame. The way i see it, im not crossing the street regardless of who it is. I keeps a strap if a nikka wanna take it there, but im not walking around like a p*ssy in fear of the boogeyman. Ive been in the black community all of my life. Mike tyson summed up the fragile white mans psyche right here (minus the gay shyt) :scusthov:

Marc Cuban's point is that he is a racist and that he thinks it's perfectly fine and totally acceptable. He also believes that it's wrong to judge people critically for being racist.
