I disagree. To me that seems like that at least we TRY to do right(granted there are racists in every country....), which is better than certain places. If reducing racism makes us hypocrites in the meanwhile, oh well...

we only care when famous white people are racist. I don't think we're hypocrites, I think most people don't care about racism at all and wish we could just say whatever and no one would care.

it is racism technically, but it's only used to hit the player where it hurts because they hate the player (or team), not the race. It's like how we keep making JP fat jokes while there's plenty of other overweight people here. It's because it's easy. Not the same thing as thinking black people are sub-human

This is right by the way.

It comes back to what I was saying the other day about Football fans being the most passionate in the world but that passion is so over the top it comes at the cost of a total, complete loss of perspective. It is passion to the point they do not understand where the line is.

For an American example, look at MWC. He is incredibly passionate. That shouldn't be denied, but the trap is that passion is purely a good thing - MWC's level of passion that isn't something you wear as a badge of honour. Nobody should ever, ever be that passionate. It's too much of a good thing - everything has to be in moderation, even something like "passion" that people constantly laud as a good thing. It's great to be passionate but only to an extent, just like...absolutely everything else in the world.

So I would say there is a lot of racism in continental Europe, but a lot of it is exaggerated because it's fans going way too far and using anything they can to insult players.
For example,
http://www.goal.com/en/news/10/italy/2009/11/26/1648716/clarence-seedorf-chants-against-inter-star-mario-balotelli

Black footballer defends racist chanting because the goal is not true racism - the goal is to hurt. And it's bad that those people don't appreciate what the line is, but they're stupid. The average person is stupid, there are more football fans than any other sport, go figure.

I would say John Terry is the same (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-16284813) - he's a classless, cockney idiot with an awful upbringing. So he insults Anton Ferdinand not because he's racist but because he has no moral problem with crossing that line.

This reminds me of my Western European politics class in college where our professor was arguing "France isn't racist, they just hate immigrants!"

He then admitted that the French image of an immigrant is somebody who isn't a white christian. So if you were white and could speak French well nobody would think of you as an immigrant, whereas if you were dark skinned but your family had been there for a century, you should be kicked out.

(augh sourcing the Mail)

John Terry was defended by Fabio Capello - a continental European - and he quickly left his job as a result. We have no race riots in football here.

So ofc there's racism here, but in my experience it is worse on the continent.

Fair enough.

Racism is everywhere, and it's part of life. It'd be good if people were more educated, but it's a lost cause. One shouldn't get too emotional over it.

In this case, what this Korean did is just stupid. It was certainly provoked by the dumbass comment Mayweather made, but that's no excuse.

Yes, I think Jenny says it best in her poem "We All"


We all look up at the same sky;
share the same wonderment
of the secrets blanketed by the milky lights.
We all feel the wind
like the breath of God--
sighing or laughing--
at the weakness of mankind.
We all feel the earth
clutching us by our feet
with the grip of a mother's love;
so when we dance,
we all dance in the safety
in the hands of creation.
We all feel the ache
of a wish unfulfilled.
So we all look up at the same sky
and wish the same wish
to never be alone;
to shine brighter than those milky lights.
