What was the joke?

Not actually a joke.

British guy say to a american southern black guy in a southern accent if he want a regional corn dish... and that black guy also mocked his british accent. Someone not involved took offense in it.

Wait did he literally say regional corn dish? I don't get it.

But either way sounds really stupid.

You're saying having multiple threads with blatant ignorance and nazism apologism on the front is actually a good look for the site?
Look at this thread and tell me if people here are criticizing an actual political ideology or rather making up one to be angry at. 
These threads aren't for discussion, they are for pandering

Who's apologizing  for nazism? Talk about making up strawmen. At least SJWs/progressives are a real thing.

You're taking this stuff too personally. You should either take a short breather or stay away from political threads. You likely got banned because of the way you called him out on it and not because you called him out. Just relax a bit. I don't like seeing people getting banned for taking this stuff personally and taking their posts too far. 

It's not that I'm upset or going nuts over this. However, if someone calls every person who disagrees with them a SJW and goes nuts in the Infowars scale, why shouldn't I say his claims are fucking stupid? If I went around saying blatantly dishonest statements, it shouldn't be a rule violation if I'm called a dumbass.

 

These threads do nothing but rally people to mock X group, whether it'd be liberals or people from Alabama. 

Because it's against the rules and frankly, it's a bit lazy to just say his claims are stupid without backing it up or saying that he's stupid. The best way is just show how his opinion is stupid or wrong by refuting it through logic and sources. If he doesn't change his opinion, others will at least see what you mean if you have solid points. As I say, you're getting too emotionally involved. it's to the point that you're basicially acting like "fuck the rules, I'll say it anyway" with posts like this. Just relax and take a break from political threads.

I don't think I need a break. If what I say isn't wanted here, then in all honesty I'd be better off banned for the sake of everyone.

That's not really apologizing for nazism. I don't what he was going with it. Being serious or satrical? Hard to tell just from that post but looking looking at his other posts in this thread, it doesn't look he was being serious. I could be wrong. Perhaps I could be giving him a break. You could just ask him to elaborate about what he meant.

I agree that he is probably not being serious, I gave you that link though because I assume that's what the other person was referring to.

You're probably right. I thought he was talking about the one guy who was permabanned not that long ago for saying actual pro-nazi stuff and other crazy stuff.

Hmm, he might have been talking about him too, I'm not sure.

Because his conduct reflects on the institution he works for.

Seems easy enough to understand, though what's the joke?

Did you read the article?  Here's the offensive, vile, disgusting, filthy racist joke that Nazi KKK Fascist White Supremacist said:

********

"The singer, who was born and raised in the southern state of Florida, said the concert had an “antebellum” feel to it, of the sort associated with Gone With the Wind and other rose-tinted representations of the pre-Civil War south.

In response Mobley says that Halls “apologised on behalf of England”, before putting on an exaggerated southern accent and joking: “Do you want some grits?”, in a reference to the ground corn dish popular in the south.

“I’m from the deep south and Matthew often makes fun of the southern accent just as I often make fun of his British accent,” said Mobley. “Race was not an issue. He was imitating a southern accent, not putting on a black accent, and there was nothing racist or malicious about it.”

But the singer suspects that a white woman who overheard their conversation and spoke to him moments later went on to report it to the university, alleging Halls had made a racist joke."

*******

OMG HE ASKED A BLACK GUY IF HE WANTS SOME GRITS!!!!

Seriously though, where would we be as a society today if we didn't have brave white social justice warriors like the woman who started this whole mess to take offense to racial humor on behalf of actual minorities?

I have relatives who are of Puerto Rican descent, and the stuff we've joked about on a variety of topics over the years would make white SJWs' collective heads explode here in 2017.

Grits are fucking awesome I don't care who you are (butter and salt added not sugar).  While I'm on the subject I also like fried chicken!



Please don't stop the right-wing hysteria. In fact, you should double down :D be as loud and dramatic as possible. That'll get people listening.
