P-Diddy's Rant on McCain and Palin

Good evening, people.

This topic is a tad sensitive, and while it hasn't slipped down the rhetorical slippery slope just yet...we would ask that you think carefully about anything you post so that doesn't happen. Keep it tightly on topic, in other words...

What a freaking clown. The fact that this moron has made millions of Americas youth just shows how far this great nation has fallen.

I will admit though, for a four minute clip, three and a half minutes of laughter aint bad. Maybe he should go on "Last comic standing"?

I saw this clown on BET last week on an awards show, and when he got on stage all he kept on saying over and over again was "Black is beautiful...soon we gonna have a black president.....black folks is takin over and blah blah blah".

I couldnt help but think to myself that he sounded like a black David Duke, and if you replaced "Puff Diddy" with a white guy and exchanged the word black in his statements for white, it would have been labeled as the most racist and offensive acceptance speech in televised history.


The double standards honestly are hularious.


And Alaska really doesn't sound that bad to me.

Actually I just realised "even diddy knows theres no crime or crackheads in alaska" Could be a great Mccain/Palin campaign shirt.

I absolutely agree that it is a VERY sensitive topic. I can see this going over the line very easily, and hope it doesn't.

Well, make the city "their own" has definitely been accomplished on a location by location basis

But this is where I say the racism topic comes in in terms of Obama will not even adress the issue.

He had no problem as a person becoming in manner and action a mainstream American... of course all Irish within a generation or 2 moved off the EC and did exactly that

A portion of Black American culture has perpetually sought to intentionally differentiate themselves and frankly i really don't believe much modern White to Black resentment/racism has anything to do with skin color and alot more to do with completely disenfranchising themselves from White American culture in deliberate attempts to stand out and not "Uncle tom" or "Sell Out"

Thats's the Diddy crowd... I mean, i didn't for a second get...even his sense of Humor, I don't think alot of Black people would either... but I'd bet in "Thug Culture" "Street Culture" there where Black guys who whooped away at that...

The problem I see is that is where alot of Racism lies and it is not just White people who dislike it, "don't get it" don't want it... Asians are freaked by it Alot of Hispanics don't like it and it's a very isolating thing particularly I am sure for a large portion of the Black community that , while maybe don't have issue with it and understand it better, or can deal with it better, still become a victim of "racial profiling" in that no one wants to live in a Black neighborhood besides Black people (and Bill Clinton)

But lots of Black men and women speak aout about it... the web is, ripe with articles by Black Women who really rag Black men for the kind of culture they can sometimes create around them

and more than one Black Male like Bill Cosby has been very loud on the issue

But again the "Uncle Tom" stigma will just shuit down anyone Black or white that says anything

I have a particular friend who i do work for, black guy, he goes out with me in my richie all white neighborhood... (and, please this is not to be a jerk ... don't take this badly anyone, this is my pal and a good pal)

But him and I hang out and, he is into all sorts of things I enjoy, I can talk to him on any subject and he's great

a few weeks back I introduce him to a couple of guys who are more... "street culture" types and... he starts hopping around being all, loud and over physical and talking sterrt and just... transformed into an idiot, even worse because he wasn't very good at it and and even could tell and that's kind of sad...

so the pressure to conform arounf thug/street culture is...enourmus I guess... You see white kids do it lets face it (and they really look moronic)


But Obama.. on a level he does it too, he speaks great, he is smart, but he changes around Black people... and he carries a version of it, he has to play the part he will blow out a whitey comment or two in public, he will use the facial exressions in mixed company and he is an instigator

and it's kind of funny, because it goes way beyond the simple blatant things you see on the street, it's in the gestures and body language, Black people love him and Diddy loves him because... he throws street cred out and does it while talking white and...lol white people like me who grew up around Black people catch it but most white people don't

and we don't have a word for it lol...so it's hard to explain... and it goes right over most white people heads, but he does it all the time and it's really insulting, insulting to the point where I really can't stand the guy

and alot of Black people just play with it say racist really loud lol if a white perrson is catching on, but, the guy frankly is just disrespecting white people sometimes and no one gets it but black people and most of them condone it... he throws it out, in gesture, in body language in expression all the time even in speech but he's speaking white when he does it...

Actually the guy is smart as hell, he communicates on many levels at once... and he's a professional instigator though, white people just don't catch it that much... I do, I'm from brooklyn most of my life, I know this guys game

Sorry Mopus,

I got caught up in another thread. And logged out (20 Eyes). I see friends of mine do the same thing around certain people. I don't understand it. I guess if you add a little Alcohol and even I might b guilty sometimes.

But, I must pay closed attention to Obama's expressions. I notice it a bit, but nothing that tells me he's getting all gangsta on whitey (kidding)
I gotta hit the hay, so, Goodnight.

PLEASE guys don't for once, think that Diddy speaks for the black community. You guys have turned this into a slavery and moving out of the country thread instead of talking about the person that made these comments for himself, and he does not speak for the black community.

Hell, Reverend Al Sharpton or Jesse Jackson doesn't speak for the black community either. They might make you think this in the media, but, those men are not aligned with the everyday African-American.

Peaches, wow... I see why this thread doesn't get any of the intelligent responses.

Also, what's up with the one liners via the OP?

Why is everything so racial? If a white celebrity ranted on about Obama and his non-whiteness they would be called racist.

No, I just posted it. See, it's actually very easy to think about it and discuss it. It comes very easy to me. Again, why the need to reference your race? Are you afraid of black people?

That's obvious. Sean Combs should stick to music and clothes. And yes, he is being racist in my opinion in that video blog.

And I'm dizzy.

It would be attacked as a lie. From what I have seen on COPS there are plenty of crackheads, methaddicts and white trash or Inuit trash occupying trailer parks. Asking people from Alaska if what I have seen on COPS is true I have learned that this meth addicted t-railer trash drunkard phenomena is mostly isolated in and near the major cities. Just like the lower 48 and Hawaii. The 48 just gets the run-o-the-mill white trash and ghetto trash though. We don't get the cool native trash that Alaska and Hawaii get. Maybe we should ship some in for the sake of multiculturalism.

No state is safe from booze/meth/crack/ addicted trash though sections of every state are.

Remember guys, there's no crime or black people in Alaska!

Here's another observation using your template...

But remember guys, white people have always committed crimes upon Eskimo's in Alaska!

I hate it when citified Americans think that the entire United States of America should cater to them only. Great heaps of bovine feces!!! How ignorant can one man be? Living in the city does not make you educated or intellectual. However, it CAN make you a thug gangster and a drug addict.

Who cares what somebody with the name P. Diddy thinks? LOL I can't believe this is even being discussed. What's next? This country has really gone down hill I'm disgusted. But that doesn't mean i'm buying a ticket on the straight talk express.

First if was Madonna, now it's him.

Seriously, SOME celebs should look pretty and keep their mouth shut.

Ridiculous.

Um watch the update, if you didnt get it it was meant to be funny and sarcastic

reply to post by ColoradoJens


No, I am not afraid of black people but I am afraid of the ignorance a man like P-Diddy breeds.

Whahahahhahahahahahhah, oh my white Jesus, look at this racist idiot. This is a bigger blunder/idiot moment than.

People out there in our nation don't have maps, and, uh, i believe that our education like such as south Africa and, uh, the Iraq everywhere like, such as and... i believe that they should, our education over here in the US should help the US, er, should help south Africa and should help the Iraq and the Asian countries,

Oh its so funny, I bet there is a influx of youths that are totally, "getting" him, and can relate to everything he just said. and probably cry Racist if anyone speaks against what he just said or ridicules him.

Anyone watch glenn beck? he hit a home run with this.

GLENN : By the way, P. Diddy, I just want to because I know you can't understand, you know, because there are no black people in Alaska. So Sarah Palin clearly can't relate to black people because there are no black people. How many black people in Alaska? Done the homework for you. 4.72% of the population. It is below average. It is below average. 4.72% of the population. That's the population of Alaska. So you were right. There are black people, but it's just below the national average.

You know, let me just give you comparison here. That's just below the national average. That would be like if I compare where does P. Diddy live, Stu?

STU: Alpine, New Jersey, Glenn.

GLENN: Alpine, New Jersey. Okay. Oh, my gosh, I just happen to have the stats. What's the percentage of people that live in Alpine, New Jersey? The place where P. Diddy chose to live, but he had enough money to live anywhere on planet Earth. Percentage of black people living in Alpine New Jersey? 1.51%. So that's about 33 total black residents, 32 if you don't count P. Diddy. So apparently Sarah Palin can understand black people a little more than three times better than P. Diddy. Of course, I don't know how many crack heads they have in Alpine, New Jersey. Let's just go out on a limb and say maybe at least one.

Now i know why i moved out to the middle of nowhere, away from the city, and the random idiots that inhabit them.
