I guess I could have started a new thread in Great Debate to see if you could back up your racist crap, but I would rather just tell you to fuck off you racist piece of shit.
So, fuck off you racist piece of shit.

Good lord, are you going to pit everything until you find something that people agree with you on?
Added gem:
Irving Berlin played some mean jug music.
Oh, look. Two and a Half Feet of Stupid has started another Pit thread. O joy.
White men can jump!
Good God. So Dio’s a closet racist. Plus, he has no grasp of American musical history…or even of American popular music. “Imbecillic [sic] jug music” indeed. Yutz.
They are better at basketball too!
Can’t you just call him on this without calling him a racist? I mean, he’s wrong, but I don’t think he’s wrong for that particular reason.
The attitude is an indicator. He’s thinking in terms of “an entire race of people is better at something than another entire race of people,” when there’s no evidence or reason that this is so.
Oh, blow me. It’s like saying that men are taller than women. It’s not true that all men are taller than all women, but , in general, men tend to be taller than women.
As to my thesis that black people are better at music than white people. I have two words: Jimi Hendrix. Checkmate.
Johann Sebastian Bach, bitch.
So, I guess White people are better at science. Einstein.
In fact, I think we can start making a whole list of things that White people are better at.
Miles Davis, motherfucker.
White people are better writers. I have two words: William Shakespeare. :rolleyes:
Sorry, anybody who singlehandedly destroyed jazz by inventing Fusion, does not rise to the level of Bach.
Fuckstick.
Mozart.
You are just clueless, aren’t you?
Nos. Weez Europeans jus accentuate an clap on beats 1 and fow. Day clap on da 2nd and fifth.
Wait a minute. Writing is supposed to be on the creative side. Dio, quick, explain this conundrum for this unimaginative white guy.
By the way, I’m in advertising. There are quite a few predominantly black and black-owned agencies. I’m still waiting for the first great idea to come out of one.
Go ahead. I think it’s probably true that whites have made more scientific advances than blacks.
None of this is genetic, though, it’s cultural. That study in the other thread on right brain/left brain pedagocical differences in culture makes a lot of sense. White European classical music was sterile and mathematic and rigid. Black folks had to show them how to incorporate blue notes and more relaxed rhythms and whatnot. It’s more expressionistic and less rational. Since music is the most abstract and most expressionistic of all the arts, it’s the most amenable to right brain creative processes.
So yeah, I think black musicians and composers tend to be better than white ones. If that makes me a racist then shave my head.
By the way, which race am I biased against by this metric? If I think Black music is better, does that mean I hate whites or blacks? I’m very confused.
Louis Armstrong
John Coltrane
Charlie Parker
Duke Ellington
Ray Charles
Sly Stone
Stevie Wonder
Bob Marley
What do white people have? Fucking Mylie fucking Cyrus.
