Racial humour is everywhere in the mainstream media. It is probably one of the things dealt with the most in comedy. |
Not exactly. If any of this was put on television advertisers would bail immediately. Title of the thread is "unintentional" racism. "N****r Monopoly" isn't exactly unintentional. |

oh please.
i'm not racist at all, i only hate gays, jews, Italians, blacks, chinamen (all of them from the different chinas all over asia), arabs, maytag executives, norweigans, and people from that country from africa that sell 9/11 commemorative coins late at night on television.
we hear the word "nigger" everywhere, using it or laughing at something that uses it does not mean you are part of the klan or even hate blacks... |

Dave Chapelle never used it 45 times on a wildly successful show? South Park? Countless stand up comics unscensored on television? Those shows did not lack ads. How about music? It isn't unintentional for sure, it's just funny. |

omg some these are hilarious.
i don't think many of them are 'unintentional racism' though :wtf:
the 'did somebody blink' one reminded me of that debacle where HP's camera autotracking only registered people with light skin.
related: i saw a racist dog at my local bar last night :haha:
also the doll one is eerily similar to this |

True this. As a foreigner, I'm often impressed by the amount of racist stereotypes mocked in American humour. |
