I never said I wouldn't hit it. My standards are pretty wide open, guy.

Although I'm not really sure if a black, hispanic or gay Shredder would have caused the same controversy as a white-washed Shredder.

I'm pretty sure it would have.

You rock bro.

So is this.

So telling someone to **** off who called you racist is racist? Saying you don't want a character used for propaganda regardless of race is racist? Or saying you would rather they invent a new character or reinvent an old charactor is racist? So now wanting creativity is racist? I guess we should never create any more minority characters or use the ones we have because that's racist.

That is generally the gimmick, yes.

Dude, the way you take such great offense to being called racist is sending a strong signal, to me, that you're racist against racists, which is the most racist thing anyone could ever think of. It's like you're creating some kind of self-expanding racism paradox.

Sorry, felt the thread could use some humor.

As you were...

You're equating having racial diversity with propaganda. Last I checked, nobody was planning on having a black Casey Jones so that he can get the Turtles to join the Black Panthers and kill whitey.



But hey, this thread's turned into an argument, so at least Cubed should be happy.

A racial argument and a big ol' pile of Batman. Kid's gonna think it's his Birthday.

No I'm not. I'm equating using a character to push your agenda as propaganda. Nothing to do with racial diversity.

So, a black Casey is propaganda?

Why?

The illuminati, the Greys, Bigfoot, or lizard people.

Take your pick of crazy I guess.

Bonus round: explain?

But seriously cubed, why? Why do this?

Alfred? Leo was right, it must be your birthday. Who wants cake?

[Leo656]

If Professor Griff played Black Casey and hollered "The Jews Are Wicked And We Can Prove This!" right before hitting guys with baseball bats, that would definitely be propaganda.

[Candy Kappa]

But, I wanna hear it from the horse's mouth

[Candy Kappa]

okay? Go on, please in details.

[arkangel]

What if you're racist against people who are overly-racist against racists?
Like.... when you can't stand people that are so politically correct and culturally sensitive that you have to have your comments sterilized by a human right's lawyer before you post? Not saying I am. Wouldn't want to be labelled.

Thank God the "triple racist paradox" only exists on Earth 2 with the 99 cheese pizza.

This is getting f***ing awesome.
