FTJoe Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 I object more to him using the words "the brothers" than the stereotyping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schizophretard Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 (edited) What do you object to about those words? Edited August 19, 2010 by Schizophretard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FTJoe Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 Besides the fact that its objectionable? You're pretty much one step away from the word that moron broadcaster used more than a dozen times and is crying her rights are being trampled while she tried to make a point. I have the same objection over the word whiteys, honkeys, and any other complete generalization of a group of people. not to mention its by a person like Rush who like any terrorist "leader" uses fear and stereotypes to gather an audience of like minded people.

Schizophretard Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 (edited) I don't know much about Rush's terrorist organization but to me it didn't sound like someone being racist but an old man trying to sound hip in describing e-cigs.

FTJoe Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 His terrorist organization is huge and about to take over the world, wake up!!! ;-) I believe I said, like terrorists. "Camps" of people are built by categorizing other people, bleeding heart liberals, brothers, Muslims, Jews, etc. Its classifying folks to make yourself feel better than another group or to have someone to blame for something or when we need to kill another group of people. We make up names to de-personalize them. That's basically how the terrorists work, oh and the tea party ain't much better these days post Ron Paul. "There, those folks, its their fault, get em". I also take offense when I hear Rush lumping me in with his camp as well, 50+ white, hard working, etc. I don't like categorizing and I don't like being categorized. And I'm pretty sure Rush is saying it to be inflammatory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though I think any endorsement is good I don't think attaching this guyz name helps much. One human being I truly think the world can use to be less visable. He'll never get over that Brown Phalic Obsession, doubt he ever did put that "Hillbilly Heroin" away and my son explained why he had all that Viagra, seems the "Club" mix at that time was called an E.V. Cocktail...Exstacy (sp?) & Viagra...God knows he needs all the help he can get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burn Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 (edited) Surprised you lot havent picked up on this line yet... "there is no tar, no nicotine, there is no nothing" Besides the obvious grammatical foible from a communications professional, well.......yes, there is nicotine, that is the POINT!!! I know, I know, he could have 0 nic but that is clearly not what he meant.... Edited August 19, 2010 by Burn Admin edit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uma Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 Not being savvy to Rush and his personality... I've only listened to one show ever..oops, make that two now... I would have assumed he was talking to his radio producer (like Rozz on Fraizer) when he mentioned the brothers. I could even visualize him lifting the ecig and pointing it to Rozz and giving the "should try it or mention it to your brothers who still smoke tobacco" with a raise of the eyebrows and a nod of his head gestures. But, I've been called naive before... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I don't de-personalize his comment by lumping him in with being like terrorists or the tea party, he doesn't sound inflammatory to me. You heard a category of people being inflammatory and I heard a person talking about e-cigs. It sounded so non-inflammatory to me that I never would of noticed him trying to be inflammatory without it being pointed out. For me to be offended I would have to want to be and try to be. I would have to be picky in my political correctness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have to be picky in my political correctness. Yes they are categories, as defined by what they actually do or are, not what race/sex/religion they belong to. To be fair, I meant the tea party organizers, their web site was pretty militant at one point in time. I believe you get the distinction but I shall explain, I don't mind being called a "male", its what I am, I object to someone saying males are obnoxious and sexist, then I'm being categorized unfairly, its a prejudice. I understand you may not be offended or even catch it, but the comment is meant to have his supporters go ooooooh, and his detractors go crazy and give him grief and free press. Most are used to it by now though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
