Topic Wiki

Thread summary:

By a random twist of pop corn fate, a truly disgusting hate crime was somehow connected with a Mordechai Ben David concert.

As it happens, Mordechai Ben David, of Yidden, Daddy Dear, Lichtigher Shabbos & other "controversies", turns out to be a racist.

Whether or not that makes him an idiot is up for discussion.

In other news, Mordechai Ben David is still the king.

South Africa is a beautiful place to visit, though its old flag is a symbol of its racist past. Oh, and the current Prime Minister can't count. That's not related to this thread, but it is something you should definitely know.

It never got cold. Unless ur saying that everyone left the plain popcorn for the butter popcorn, then realized it was fake, and now the plain popcorn lost its appeal?

Someone has to disagree to it being a slur first. The crowd is even a stretch for me.  :)

Hey I gave it my best shot
Kushi is a racist word, to the extent of being compared to the N word? I understand its as if he said "black", but honestly what is the big deal?

How can you guys sit here and argue about a guy who's clearly a good for nothing racist? What is he worth if he can't even respect the people in power?! Shame.

Thank you.  :)
It is not because the word is a slur but because he is referring to him by his race in a context where race is irrelevant.

  • Programs: 1. Search on google. 2. Search in the right board of DDF with a general word or two. 3. Read the wiki. 4. Read the thread. 5. Ask away.

So you are upset that someone summed up a race with one word, and you want us to sum up that person with a 2 second sound bite. Got it.

Who are we kidding? Kushi is as racist as it gets. Perhaps not loaded with the historically charged racism as the N word or the K word in South Africa, but it is a racist slur.

Is anyone arguing against that?
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.
