I was just watching a show on E! called “Chelsea Lately.” Along with Chelsea Handler there are three other people around the table discussing various people and issues. I have no idea who the three people are - one white guy, one black chick and one white chick. Oh yes, there’s a hispanic little guy, too. At one point in the show, the black chick declared - when a television show was mentioned - ”I don’t like that show. There’s too many white people for me.” She thought she was funny - and Chelsea and the others all laughed on cue. All the white folks on the show just laughed it off. I wonder if the black chick would have laughed it off if Chelsea had said she didn’t care for a show because “There’s too many black people” on it? Chelsea could very well be looking for another job by now.
There is a huge double standard in our culture. If something is wrong for one racial group to say or do - then it’s wrong for other racial groups. We fought for and won equal rights for everyone. Equal rights - not special rights for privileged groups.
Unfortunately, I kept watching the show. The black chick was full of “racial humor.” Maybe that’s her thing. She wasn’t funny. I wonder if she is actually successful as a comedian using the type humor she showed on the show. As part of this particular Chelsea Lately show, she went to a Spice Girls concert and interviewed people. She selected a black guy and gave him a hard time for attending a Spice Girl concert: “What the HELL are you doing here? Martin Luther King is rolling in his grave right now!” Then she asked him how many times he’d voted for Mel B in “Dancing With the Stars.” When he replied that he’d voted for Mel B twice, her comment was “Another brother that don’t vote!” You notice she didn’t ask if he’d voted for any of the white dancers. The question assumed that since he was black, he should have supported the black finalist on “Dancing With The Stars.”
Racism is racism. Just because it’s black against white racism shouldn’t make it any more acceptable.

I’ve seen the show, on occasion. I totally agree with you though, and we’ll never read or hear about this one from Al Sharpton and his group.

I have never seen or even heard of this show, but that could be because I don’t have cable or satellite. I chose to do without television because of the quality of programming. I agree that the racism in this country is rampant, and in reverse to what it used to be. I have encountered the same types of issues: black people making anti white comments, and agree that racism is racism whether the racist be black, white, or any other color. The racism also extends to the freedom of religion we “supposedly” have in this country. We definitely need some changes.

Chelsea is a race-traitor. But, if wiki is correct and her father is a jew, that would explain it. I think the filthy bitch should be dropped off in Zimbabwe (formerly Rhodesia) so she can have all the nigger she wants, including on a plate!! The problem is, this witch and her jewish producers are pushing interracial amalgamation for whites, which is what jews constantly do. See the cover of ‘Vogue’ magazine, for example. Vogue is owned by the Samuel Newhouse (jewish) empire.
TMS: Sounds like you’ve got some anger going there, Tim. Seriously, why can’t we all just be people. If you decide to comment again, leave off the offensive language (”filthy bitch” “nigger”), or I’ll have to delete your comments.
