dude if u grow up on hip hop and r&b whose fault is that? dont use that as an excuse to back up bet. first off, bet is racist but its not offensive. racist means when there is a seperation of peoples. bet clearly is. However, racist does not pertain to it being a bad thing. b.e.t. is racist but it doesn't offend people because bet is created for blacks by blacks.

however, if we were to twist this around and say b.e.t. isn't racist even though they show only black stuff, then why is friends considered racist? why is it that whenever something white comes out and there's no black people in it, everyone's quick to jump on the bandwagon to call them out on it. That's not fair.

Clearly CMT doesn't count because they arent racist...they are a country music channel and there just dont happen to be any black people doing county. Obviously you can't blame CMT for that.

BET is racist and that is something people can blame them for because obviously it's not geared towards just black people and yet that's they only thing they show (with the exeption of eminem stuff.) people in this thread have already said that everyone watches BET...so how come they only show black stuff?

that is why BET is black and even though i dont really care if it is or isn't and i'm clearly not offended by any of it, it's true and i just laid out why it is

i wonder if black people would complain if there was a "white entertainment television"..i know i wouldnt

and lmao @ this

Clearly CMT doesn't count because they arent racist...they are a country music channel and there just dont happen to be any black people doing county. Obviously you can't blame CMT for that.

and bet shows the only white rapper so how the fuck is bet racist, do you want bet to have "the white peoples hour: making up for the opression" once a week, this is the dumbest shit i have EVER heard. you might as well ask if jerry seinfeld is racist because there was never a black person on his show....maybe there was once


besides, racism is too strong of a word to be used for a fuckin TV channel and its programming

until you have seen your people bein lynching, jumped, have rocks thrown at, have crosses burned in your front yards, recieve death threats or be called racial slurs such as nigger on a daily basis, dont talk to me about any sort of "racism" towards white people.

P.S. seperation between people is called SEGREGATION not racist
preffering one color of people towards another is called BIASED not racist
acting with hate intent to harm or demoralize someone based on skin color IS called racist

"racist means when there is a seperation of peoples"
Nope, that's Segregation

And I don't know what white people say that BET is racist, I don't think they are, and I'm white! I mean the only white person who I could see thinking that BET is racist, is someone who doesn't know what BET stands for....

"until you have seen your people bein lynching, jumped, have rocks thrown at, have crosses burned in your front yards, recieve death threats or be called racial slurs such as nigger on a daily basis, dont talk to me about any sort of "racism" towards white people."

You've seen lychings? Wow.... Didn't realize that still happened =( I'm sorry
Also, I have been called white trash and cracker by some africans, I know it's not a good feeling, and I couldn't imagine how they would feel if it happened to them. Racism still does exist unforunately, I stop my friends from thinking like that, if they say anything racist... I smack 'em! They deserve it

I've listened to Maroon 5 not bad BEt play on. If there were a WEt it would jus rip off black jokes and play country music like the Osmonds ripped the Jacksons off.

who gives a flying fuck if bet is racist they wont play eminems viedo they playedd all the oter ones its just cause wacko didnt like what EM did ya dont see mc hammer or madonna tripin out hes just crazy and over sensitve

who cares? no reason for this post

you're such an idiot, and time somebody says something that is true about BET you just say "ignorance" you need to just shut up and you should of never made this thread...

"MTV is mainstream music and mainstream music is generally what white people listen too...am i right???? "

^you are totally wrong i know a ton of black people that watch MTV and stuff, you are just not with the right ones because you obviously wouldnt like the ones that listen to that you would just like that ones that are all for hip-hop and stuff, i bet you have never been hanging out with the blacks that listen to Ashlee Simpson or Maroon 5... why? because they are "outsiders" for not following the black sterotype of hio-hop gang-bangers, maybe its you who need to expand your horizons and stop making these threads.. and you need to stop being so ignorant because you have no will to meet black people who have different music preferences... just shut up, and .. im just gonna cover everything here, black people bitch because bush is gonna be taking away some of welfare and you dont thinkt hats right because your "homies" int he ghetto cannot survive, do you really think them being on welfare is gonna motivate them to go out and get a job in the real world? that will just teach them to stay on welfare because i mean as long as the government covers us, why work? get the money, clothes and food for free, why would you be motivated to actually go out and WORK for it when it's just being handed to you?

also, im sick pf people sayng "Kerry is gonna win because he fights for the blacks" can you be any more biased and uneducated about it? that is just PURE IGRNORANCE and i was watching the news yesterday, how black people act, after the debate a black male came on and said "as an american voter blah blah" then he stops, and says "then, as an African American voter blah blah".. do you see white people doing that? *AHEM*

"as an american voter blah blah, oh yes and also i feel this way as a caucasian voter"

That is such crap white people never do that... and you all know it so just shut the hell up and quit arguing the battle you're going to lose.

MTV NEVERE PLAYS HIP-HOP..

...although i flipped it one last night and what was it? for 2 hours in a row?

"hip hop countdown"

and what was after that? "southern crunk classics" i mean dont get me wrong i know a lot of whites who are rocking out to Lil' Jon and yelling "GET IT CRUNK GET IT CRUNK"

totally happens.

true white ppl should be happy for us they got VH1 Mtv and we got like 1/3 of MTV 2 so...
and black ppl dont wanna blaze up no fuckin linkin park and some Christina agulera

um illuson wats good wit dat battle man?

againd read my post.

Is BET racist? Hell fuken yea.. Can you imagine the drama that would be created if there was an all white channel where no black people were shown? Lol... It would start riots bro..

But on the other hand.. Do I really give two shits about black people having their own channel? ... Not really.. Shit, if I was in america, Id watch it for the hip hop n comedy shows man.. Color really aint a big issue to me..

But what I find funny, is all these kids comming in here yelling about white people having MTV.. Look, when was the last time you saw a black face on MTV.. 1? 2 MINUTES ago? Stop bullshitting around like it really matters.. And get on with your lives..

Theres a lot more to life then racial differences.........

Word?

why isn't there jsut a HIP HOP channel... it doesn't have to be black....

seriously everything comes down to race... which in fact in the next 2 centurys hopefully this race thing will die down... because all the parents and grandparents that went through it will be dead....

if we didn't make hip hop a race thing better music would be made...

we need a hip hop channel cuz seriously BET plays some gay ass R&B....

^wordness, im glad to see you can tell the difference.

who cares anyway..
people make out to be this big deal, its not.
live and let be.

*AHEM* who made the thread?
