    Asian? What part of Asia would we referring to, Iran, Russia, India? How about if we call them Pacific Rimmers?

    Which basement dwelling white liberal declared Oriental to not be preferred? It really doesn’t matter what we call people today because tomorrow it will be racist.

    I basically agree, typically though this sort of thing elicits quite the response from progressives.

    Think what you would be saying if a picture of Trump in a black face was uncovered.

    Not to give you a hard time, but these two posts seem a bit contradictory.

    I said that its inappropriate to dress up as a black person to mock them. So that is absolutely unacceptable to me. However if you dress up as a black person, or a white person, or any other race or demographic of any kind simply to have a good time and celebrate what you are dressing up as, its perfectly fine to me.

    Wouldn’t it be easier to rename the rugs? No. People can’t call that racist.

    But we can have oriental rugs but no orientals. Does that mean we should have African pottery but no Africans?

    How the heck can we have rugs from the Orient when there are no people from the orient?

    Are you perfectly fine with white people making tacos or having dreadlock hairdos? Those things were considered racist.

    Lol, I know... just rife with contradiction. Can't win for losing.

    The subject of this thread has been a real eye opener for many. It doesn't necessarily mean that progressives will learn and change, but it's something we can constantly remind them of when they start hyperventilating over some other offense, then weaponizing that "offense". This has proved what many of us have been saying for the longest.

    Saying it’s racist to call a person from the orient an oriental is like saying it’s racist to call a person from the south a southerner.

    The left must work overtime to invent things to call racist.

    It's always something new, often times something that has most people scratching their heads, yet complying anyways just to avoid the REEE rampage.

    Hilariously though, as seen here in this thread, blackface isn't actually something to be upset about. So, next time there's a new trend in outrage culture, we can question them without second guessing.

    Last night Tucker Carlson exposed CNN’s partisan hypocrisy like a boss. Did you catch it?

    Not yet, I've been youtube deprived over the past few days due to my schedule, but it's ok, those videos are waiting for my enjoyment.

    I'm looking forward to it, all my favorite commentators have chimed in, just haven't had time to watch.

    If you're not familiar with Gad Saad I'd highly recommend.

    Walter Sobchek from the Big Lebowski said that champ. Oriental is not the preferred nomenclature dude, it’s Asians or Asian Americans. Ask someone who happens to be one. It used to be considered polite to call African Americans nigras negroes or colerds too, but it ain’t any more. Calling anyone who comes from the Far East Orientals or Chinamen is the same as calling African Americans colerds.

    Citing old movies won't help you, imo.

    Putting on theatrical make up for a play or skit is not disrespectful at all in my view. Calling everyone from the Far East Oriental or a Chinaman is very disrespectful in my opinion. See what I mean now?

    I don’t need any help champ. I am just telling you that calling people from the Far East Orientals is ignorant and insulting. It’s the same as when ignorant morons used to call them all Chinamen. Get it?

    So you cannot describe anything in the 2 second video that you say shows Trudeau mocking a black person. You've run away again
