Why do so many black people love the incredibly racist Italian gangsters?

[Cee Oh Vee]

Aww.

If you think about it, most gangster movies make racist remarks to all races. Goodfellas, Godfather (1,2,3), Casino, The Departed, Donnie Basco, Carlito's Way, Once opon time in America, and the list goes on. Notice how they're racist towards all races. They make remarks towards the irish, italians, blacks, mexicans, whites, indians, jews, arabs, and exspecially asains (Donnie Basco and The Departed are very examples of how they're really racist toward asains). It's only fair, people. The reason why the writers do this is because all races make racist remarks towards others races because they're ignorant. It's true. I know I have, you have, and everybody else has done it. If you haven't, you're lying to yourself!

Thanks.

^^ Nah, there's definately the most 'looking down' towards black people. Like I said, you still get monkey chants in Italy aimed at black football players. They aint doing that to Japanese players etc.

But they might make another racist remark towards them, and they WILL be offended. I hate when blacks make it like they're the victims when it comes to jokes when they're the ones that are mainly making racial jokes towards every damn race. Now, let an asian make a racial joke about a black people. Blacks would be up in arms about the shit because of what went on 300 years ago and today. Just STFU and deal with it, please. They're not victims.

I've often wondered why so many black rappers (and a lot of black people in general) are so fixated with Italian gangsters and playing the Scarface connection, when they are the most racist people around, and have not a good word to say about black people.

Like in Sopranos for instance, they always talk about black people like their idiots they get in for shitty work. There's even a bit in (I think) Season 6 at the start when the rapper tries to talk to Tony in the hospital on the whole 'original G' flex and Tony just looks at him like a cunt.

I've heard the answer that it's cos of the whole 'the world is yours' get what you want type philosophy, but hell the Nazi's took what the fuck they wanted and were racist as fuck, but I aint met any rappers calling themself MC Goebbels.

the main reason iz that almost every rapper want to be a "boss" or watever
imo the hip hop artist are gettin their "gangsta-rap" from these tv shows instead
of the REAL LIFE experience

The point im trying to make is that a lot of the black psyche in America, etc. has to do with how we were bred in this country. You want to know why Black males arent taking care of their kids? you want to know why black males may look up to white italian racist gangsters? Or why black women and black men do not get along? then look no futher then the "Willie Lynch Letters". All im saying is unless you are black it will be really hard to understand why we are the way that we are unless you dig deep and understand how the psyche of our forefathers was shaped...wasnt trying to start a race war or anything lol. Just expressing how I feel.


And get off that "white guilt, uppity racism crying black guy" thing, because I didnt bring up the black vs white thing, look no further then the thread title for that. Its all peace here just trying to build with my wu fan brethren no matter what color.


Seriously though... Read the "Willie Lynch Letter: How to make a slave"... and understand that this mentality exists among blacks today, we are just dealing with it in the wrong way now (welfare, Prisons) instead of rehabilitating our minds. Any questions on the black psyche almost always can be referred to this. As a black male I feel I need to pass this on to non blacks so they can get a good idea as to why a group of people seem so crazy nowadays because lets face it, Black folks are confused and crazy right now....

yo this is on some real shit. anyone who hates on blacks today for being ignorant or whatever today almost never takes what you just said into consideration. (granted there is personal responsibility and blacks do need to start big upping themselves) but black people as you put it "were bred" to be stupid, not value education, feel subservant ect. it was passed down from generation to generation, thats why it erks me when i see some blacks fucking with other blacks because they are trying to do something with themselves, instead of "being hood". that whole being hood shit is just the remenents of the white man holding generations of blacks down. and now blacks want to rep it? thats ass backwards if you ask me. youd think a people would want to rise above all the bullshit that was shoved down thier throats for hundreds of years instead of embracing it like it was a culture they created. in reality it is a culture that was forced upon them.


(however i heard someplace that the Willie Lynch Letter was fake, that doesnt change my point though)

Come to think of it, I think Italians are racist 'cause didn't they side with the white supremsists aka the Nazi's during WWII? Or am I thinking of a different country...

Yes but so did Japan. It wasn't about race but rather other political agendas.

Actually, Ive seen a couple asian guys make racist jokes about black folks, ain't no thang. Jeff Ross makes Racist black jokes. Not everyone clowning on Flav at the roast was black but the jokes all related to Him being ugly, black, embarrassment to the human race...I think folks need to get off that because we get clowned by comedians, its just that hardly anyone knows how to do it cleverly without saying we are "niggers that need should be hanging from a tree"

I actually heard that too, I wish I had the resources to really find out

[grimey]

[Mantra]

Maybe it's because Italians make such good spaghetti, and meatballs!
