Racism is over. I saw one Asian guy in a commercial, a black guy, and a few Hispanic catamites. There is proof.

Yes, because you know racism is a thing of the past when you see minorities appearing as one big happy family in commercials.

See, look at Smallville. They have a black guy who plays basketball in the show and Kristen Kreuk who is Clark's f*** slave. Racism is over. Raise your hands, and rejoice.

Acutally the black guy has been written off the show. I think that's the guy who played Pete. And in the comic books doesn't Lana end up with Pete! Somthing else for you guys to be angry about. See, look at Smallville. They have a black guy who plays basketball in the show and Kristen Kreuk who is Clark's f**k slave. Racism is over. Raise your hands, and rejoice.

Just stereotypical, I guess.

I don't think it's WHAT the stereotype is, but rather just the way a group will stereotype others. 'Oh, you're ____, so you must ____.'

It can make members of that group feel inadequate if they feel they don't measure up. "But I thought Asians were smart" "But I thought Eurasians were hot" ( ) Or, it can make them concieted.

True. I think someone I know would. >_>
(btw, Stereotypes are like assumptions really.)

Are you meaning to tell me a black kid playing basketball is stereotypical? Besides, in my high school every kid on the basketball team was black, well besides the tallest player on the team, this mainland Chinese guy. I'm comfortable with "stereotypes" I'm ok with the Asian news reporter, the black athlete, the sexy Latino guy with all the dance moves. These are things that we all come to expect in life. Because we can all relate to them in one way shape or form. We all know this character in real life.. If we started playing around with these stereotypes and just threw them out the window all of a sudden white people can dance. youtube.com/watch?v=2HiuCaaQhxg

No, I've never met any nerdy black kids who were into anime and rock music...Oh wait, that's my friend Darius.
I guess you are okay that Asians are always cooks or some Kung Fu guy willing to fight so the white man gets the girl?
Yes, minorities should continue to play side roles, while the white man gets the gold as the lead role in every movie.
Hallelujah!

Or did he die when one of his dope deals....which was the only reason why a dumb negro like him lived in a white neighborhood...go wrong and he's now serving 20-life in a state penetentiary? Is he now making rap albums in the show? All black people do that right? Anyways, thank god. I mean, god forbid we have a black guy steal the white man's china woman.
