Talk:Chris and race
Good work, Tyranogre! I'll try to contribute to the page, soon, too --GokuGetEm 08:53, 31 December 2009 (CET)
Nice start. Easily can be added on to and everything. Just a thought, though: should we include others he's shown hate towards? Y'know, like the homos and anyone with asperger's/low-function autism/"anything that tries to take Chris's spotlight"? --Blazer 08:55, 31 December 2009 (CET)
- If we do that, we might as well call this page "Chris and discrimination" or "Chris and tolerance" or something. Personally I'd like to have a quick list of all the groups he's offensive to in one place. SnorlaXBOX 08:59, 31 December 2009 (CET)
- Actually, I'm surprised we haven't done just that! Chris hasn't shown discrimination towards just one group, he's shown it to everyone everywhere! I don't think we should delete this, just rename it into "Chris and discrimination", like you said!--Blazer 09:05, 31 December 2009 (CET)
- Sure, let's rename it. Of course, first we need to convince Champ to remove the deletion tag... Tyranogre 09:07, 31 December 2009 (CET)

Why I'm nominating it for deletion
I can see some potential here but not much. Chris's dislike of blacks is just something trolls like to exaggerate - at best, Chris seems really uncomfortable around black people in the same way an upper class person would lock the car doors while going through the black neighborhood. It's not really racist, per say, that Chris doesn't like black chicks but I think the problem is that 1) he's not really in the position to be fussy about women, given who he is and 2) he's made it seem like that he would rather keep being a virgin than do a black girl (perhaps this question could be posed in the mailbag or the Common Questions). But he's not an outright racist. It's fun to suggest this to Chris because it irritates him, but really it's misleading to suggest he's some sort of closet KKK member. Bob on the other hand actually made a comment about Megan being a "dirty German girl" which is really old school racism but alas, we'll never have that call publicly.
Other races? You can really summarize it in one sentence - Chris's views of race come from TV and popular culture in general. Jews eat bagels and whine a lot, Asians are really good at math and karate, Native Americans do rain dances and say "How!", etc.
This article is trying to insinuate something about Chris that really isn't. I know we do this a lot but with race, it's really pushing it for its own article. --Champthom 09:09, 31 December 2009 (CET)
- Given his reaction toward black kids at Game Place, I'd definitely call him racist. --DirtyCrappedBriefs 09:18, 31 December 2009 (CET)
