      Also just to clear this up. I actually did buy a bag of the candy in the OP in a local store. I just posted the thread since the brand name could so easily be misunderstood.

        We don't single out mixed races. You check all the races you belong to. To single mixed races out is just impractical and likely racist.

          Ignorant of what the show is actually about. Your posts already demonstrated that you feel vindicated for your racist beliefs by watching a "black" program.

            Having a word for a particuarly common racial mix is racist? Ok so is Mestizo racist?

            Anyway can you even define the word racist or is this just a content free boo word for you?

                I don't know that word. Only racists are hung up on mixed races and what to slur/call them.

                  WTF Why would I feel my beliefs vindicated by a TV show or any mass media?


                  In any case I specifically said I watched the show because its funny and has interesting social commentary. Where does racism or Whitey feeling good come into this? I also watch South Park and Drawn together for the same reason.

                      Like I already said, the words where part of our geography class in primary school to describe the structure of population of Latin American countries. They are common knowledge over here and are not seen as offensive.

                      Mestizo is a person of mixed Ameridian and European ancestry
                      http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mestizo

                      Just like Mulatto its commonly used and known. I also recall Zambo being taught but I think most people on the street probably don't know it.

                        Drawn Together still exists?

                        Earlier in this thread, Heraclitus referred to Asians as Orientals. Anyone else notice that?

                          That's because all Europeans are racist. This is well-known.

                            It wouldn't surprise me. He talks like my grandfather.

                              Ok caught me there I watch it for the delightfull vulgarity and popculture references. However the very premise of the show is social commentary.

                                And the point remains the same. You take what you can get to validate your racism.
