To clarify, how is that post “Racist?”
In reply to Prako
Read it more slowly, but by bit.
Sbow a haitian person killing and eating pets i have yet to see any video or pic .but i know in his state people eat possum .raconn and squirrel all in the bayou isnt that nasty too
And for the record, in the Southern Caribbean (Guyana and Trinidad), Manicou (opossum), Tattoo (Armadillo) are highly rated delicacies. I am getting hungry just talking about that.
In UWI St Augustine, a Jamaican classmate said eating doubles in Curepe was the most nasty thing - I never thought he was racist.
Dem people is something else oui.
Have the gall to say he went een de back and “prayed about it”.
Hypocritical, sanctimonious mofos all a dem!

You're trying really hard just like Rep Higgins who wrote "vudu" guess Das why dem cyan. ponounce Kamala.
a. What is the racial make-up of Haiti and te immigrants in Springfield
b. How would a Jamaican saying eating doubles in Trinidadian be racist when Trinidad has large Afro n Asian origin 00l plus minorities of European descent who aren't mixed race. Yuh trying, Yuh stretching, all that does is tell a lot. SMH

You win. It is not racist.
What is it?
In reply to nick2020
Haiti's population and Diaspora aren't 95+ black Afro descent. Majority of Jamaican immigrants don't look like and to many in Springfield don't sound like Haitians. Dat man good yes

Prako is referring to this:
So racism by definition is something negative based on race:
What the GOP is good at now falls under xenophobia.
Conveniently this xenophobia kicks in when the countries are majority black and brown. So yea it is not racism; it is convenient xenophobia
In reply to nick2020
Do you know that Irish are at about 2nd or 3rd on the illegal immigrants list with large populations in many Northeastern cities? How does xenophobia impact them? Is it a case of more xenophobia when it's blacks and browns or none when it is white ppl?
In reply to Brerzerk
Sounds like you get it.
Convenient xenophonia is fine. It allows you to see immgrants from shithole countries like Africa, Haiti and El Salvador are not okay but Norway is okay.
