Charlotte Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 But it was said before this recent outcry yet nothing was said or done? Do you really think that over 10k Indian people phoned Big Brother on Tuesday night (during live streaming) to complain about a racism issue? I would have thought it was people of all races and backgrounds. I personally don't think this thing is racism, it's stupidity but I didn't see the live stream that night, it was cut off I believe.

Konrad Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 Most of stuff, which was spoken there (as i can find out in this discussion - TV bores me) is NOT racist, it is NATIONALIST - you know - in a way "England, England uber alles" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imi Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 i seriously dont think she was "trying for the big time" as she has lost a hell of alot of her contracts according to the news today e.g her perfume (all perfume shops have now taken it off the shelf), kicked off from being a ambasador for bullying etc etc etc so i dont think she has been acting as it has done her so called career more harm than good. career built on a pack of cards.....so about time.... jus flicked through the channels and came across some BB show on E4 and saw Jade calling Shilpa; Shilpa poppadoms....... How does she manage to breath....i'd have expected her to get that wrong too... Good post from Far Post 106 - I can now see what the fuss is about.....

imi Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 All I'm guilty of is trying to prove what a silly state all the 'racism' stuff is getting too. Not really.....its fairly well defined; not sure why you are struggling to understand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdavies Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 I think the insanely knee jerk reaction to some non-representative individual Z-list celeb shenannigans is what everyone cannot believe. I am finding this hard to stomach - its like there are no other problems in the world, f*ck off and get a life!!! Jesus f*cking christ - kids starving, wars going on - mass murders fleeing justice, people dying in tragic circumstances... The racism thing doesn't even come into it.. F*CKS SAKE! Why is anyone watching this? Why does anyone care? It is shite... and as such should have the classic south park disclaimer every time it is shamefully broadcast: ALL CHARACTERS AND EVENTS IN THIS SHOW -- EVEN THOSE BASED ON REAL PEOPLE -- ARE ENTIRELY FICTIONAL. ALL CELEBRITY VOICES ARE IMPERSONATED......POORLY. THE FOLLOWING PROGRAM CONTAINS COARSE LANGUAGE AND DUE TO ITS CONTENT IT SHOULD NOT BE VIEWED BY ANYONE Stop watching it - if it offends.. just stop... stop STOP NOWNOWNOW... FFS.. stop feeding the fire... Why do people feel the need to be offended on behalf of others!?!?! Christ - get some of your own worries sorted ... *pop* - blood vessel. ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED? GAH.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wkdtime Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 So "White trash is an American ethnic slur with a social class component. The term is usually considered interchangeable with trailer trash. It is comparable to "honky" in that it is targeted toward white people. Singling someone out on an ethnic basis? Targeted towards people of a certain skin colour? Honky is a racist term used by black Americans!!! Sounds about as racist as you could get to me!! Lol.....have you actually seen the conversation that took place? the whole conversation? Because if you had, then you too along with the millions that watched would know he did'nt actually call her 'White trash'. Why isnt it front page in the papers if he did? Its like banging your head aginst a wall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kittyclaws Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 Yet again Big F#cking Brother takes over this site. This program is pure utter bollocks. I'll tell you what it needs,,,,, Napalm, and lots of it, or just fill the house up with all the retards that have been on it, then let me go in there with a GPMG. I will need help from another member as i will need an extra hand to carry ammo and a few spare barrels because it's going to overheat big time.

Scoboblio Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 Both of them have denied that it had anything to do with race; http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/6277301.stm So there you go!

Green Peace Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 I dont watch Big Brother thats because i have really good wallpaper. I got an idea? (slightly off topic lol) Why Dont we have 'our own forum Big Brother?' How it would work is we all vote who we think should share a thread for a few weeks thats locked so only they can use it! All the troublesome ones on here (like myself:p ) and a few others like me ha ha Then we have a second thread where we discuss it and the last one to be voted off by the members wins a prize i think that would be a right laugh...might get bit heated at times though...but it would be well funny. What do ya reckon? Im serious lol. Si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobSheffield Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 FFS what is this country coming to when we are finding excuses for racism and homphobia. What kind of a country makes a celebrity out of an ugly fuckpig who came SECOND on a TV show full of hopeless chancers seeking their pitiful fifteen minutes of fame. FFS, when did it become okay to be famous for coming second at anything? Strip her naked and stick her in a room full of starving rats and anyone else who wants to be in BB or any other reality TV show or X-Factor style fiasco should be 'collected' in the middle of the night and 'disappeared'. That'll solve a few problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 So, I would refer to an asian as a 'P@ki', no disrespect but that's my term for them regardless of what area of asia they come from. In the context of your explanation for Jermaines words then this is fine I take it? You're refering to a whole race in your statment. White people call them white trash. It's a class thing. Some black people call each other n*gger. And that's OK apparently but if I did it it wouldn't be OK. So Jermaine Jackson is allowed use a racial epithet about someone of another race but I'm not? Isn't that racialism against me? I think it has been repeated several times above that the word 'white trash' is not considered racist in its orginating country and as Wilkpedia describes it therefore it cannot be held in the same degree or context as the word 'p@ki' Ah, but it has also been stated that if you feel something is racist then it is. And I do, so it is. You know wikipedia is user maintained right? You or me could edit that description if felt like it. Wikipedia isn't the gospel. In fact it's often wrong. I edited the mkiv Supra wiki page because it said the TT had one big and one small turbo. Dude, it's American for Chav, it has nothing to do with colour of your skin. That's crazy. Of course it's to do with skin colour. What does the word white represent then, if not skin colour? I would'nt personally use the term, and neither did JermaineYeah he did - he was just a bit sly about it by saying "some people would call her white trash". The sub-text "and they'd be right" was pretty obvious. And as for those folks in india (or wherever Shilpa is from) on the news jumping up and down and burning effigies of the Channel 4! How very civilised and forward thinking they look too. Some people might say 'The whole BB racism thing is a complete farce and all the usual people are over-joyed to have the chance to be offended again.' Obviously that not something I would ever say though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazboy Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 Dude, it's American for Chav, it has nothing to do with colour of your skin. So why not use the original term "trailer trash". IMO saying white trash has nothing to do with skin colour is delusional. You almost never hear a white person on American TV/movies refer to anyone remotely trashy as "white trash".

Nick Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 I read somewhere that reality TV is for people that find soap operas hard to follow. Never watched big brother and I never will. Nice thing about being out the country is you don't hear about it either, unless you choose to read a thread such as this one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
