And that's part of it, not every black person has a ghetto accent just like not every Asian person has this kind of accent. That's why this is racist. How can you not see that?

It's not stereotypical, everybody has one no matter where you're from. And the actual funny part of the video were the cars rising. I don't know who this girl is. But if she were to say stupid **** like "we eat dogs" or whatever, I'd completely agree. I have a hard time understanding how an accent can be racist when it just characterises where you're from.

African-American's live in a diverse place with many accents and demographics. She never said "Asia". She specifically referenced China. And when Chinese IN China speak english they do have those accents, because of the way they pronunciate chinese and then trying to speak english etc, Gaga x Nicki x Azealia x Ariana x Kesha x Bey Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or at least similar to a white person doing that to footage of black people eating and they voice over with a stereotyped "ghetto" voice? Hmm?

If she were white, SJW's on Tumblr would be even reaching to say she was appropriating to make money off her mixtape. Mess. Which is actually more annoying cause you would expect other minorities to understand what it's like to be mocked Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a hard time understanding how an accent can be racist when it just characterises where you're from. I'm from the Middle East and I lack an accent. If a voice over is made and a stereotypical "terrorist" drawl is used then yes, that's perpetuating a stereotype to make a joke. It's not funny to those involved. Serious Question though, do you not know what racism is? Or that's there different forms? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
