Is this racist?

Wearing your hat sideways is a African American invention.

no it's not, just watch some Bowery boys or dead end kids videos .
their from the 1930's and 1940's.

Link?

Hat tipped sideways = Racist

Well, it equals racial stereotyping anyway.

I'm surprised TruthMatters missed that.

How is it racist to photoshop pokemon garb on a person who quoted Pokemon The Movie as some sort of deep insight into life?

So you say no.

I still can't find anything to support your claim, but I'll go ahead and take your word for it.

Regardless, black people didn't invent watermelon or fried chicken either, but it would certainly be a racial stereotype to photoshop a bucket of popeyes in his hand now wouldn't it?

Same goes for a sideways baseball cap, albeit a bit less egregious.

I don't know, it's used to be considered racist to show African Americans eating fried chicken in advertising, now they don't just eat, it they sell it.(Popeye's, KFC )
in some advertisements THEY'RE SHOWN EATING WATERMELON ?

I mean its a photoshop of a cartoon on top of a photo. Not sure how it could be anything else but crappy given the availability of subject matter.

Racist?

No, just stupid.

I once Photoshopped a picture of John Edwards' face onto a picture of an English Queen. Was that racist?

Got to see the pic

 

[manifold]

Since when does 'photoshopped' mean it can't be racist?

 

[manifold]

I remember some people here insisting this pic was racist, but none of them could explain why.

But whatcha gonna do?

 

[yidnar]
