QUOTE=j666;10497716][Aside] Sampiro, might not the name be a reference to the British gold coin? And perhaps to the poster’s family’s origins? I’m just not seeing that as an ethnic slur. [/Aside] [/QUOTE] Sure it can. Probably is. But if he can say that the only people who don’t follow his logic are racists, I can certainly call guinea into question. [QUOTE=monstro] I don’t think this is a case of “the lady doth protest too much” [/QUOTE] Yes you do or you wouldn’t have mentioned it (unless you’re just dying for people to know you’ve read _Hamlet_). And no, it’s not. I honestly believe he crossed a serious line and his puny whining unpology (posted after I posted this incidentally) doesn’t cut it. Unable to win with a low heart he decided to play a spades, and call bullshit, illegal move. Why does this infuriate me so much other than the obvious? It’s because there _ **IS** _ very real, totally legitimate racism out there. The same reason it infuriates me when people are called homophobes (I started a pit thread when GLAAD called Gene Shalit one) or sexist or anti-semitic or other such labels without adequate reason, because it _castrates_ the words and the charges, and when the charge is _valid_ it means next to fucking nothing. Don’t worry that by missing Jim Crow you missed your chance to fight prejudice- it’s not like the Third Reich, it’s still out there. Still time to get your licks in, you don’t have to buy a medal at a junk shop and say you earned it. Hatred and irrational prejudice is alive and well, you don’t have to make it up, just look a little and you can find the real thing, or wait a while and it’ll probably find you. But self imposed victimization makes me sick. It’s also a reason I’m against hate crime laws (because I’m gay I’m special? A violent attack on me is intrinsically worse than a violent attack on my straight brother? Or am I so helpless that I need extra terms applied to my assailant?), but that’s another thread. > [@](#): > > I don’t blame foolsguinea for getting carried away (which he fully admitted). His unpology was posted after I started this thread, incidentally- there was a technical burp that ate it for a while. And in said unpology he acknowledges there’s some chance that we who disagree aren’t racist, we could just be ignorant and uneducated. Racist v. Ignorant & Uneducated… hmmm… which one to choose… I can’t have both applied to me? --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/foolsguinea-please-to-lick-my-corpulent-white-lily-flour-colored-alabama-ass/474502)._
