      This thread is hilarious. CS has gone fully woke! Watch those micro-aggressions, people.

          MMA is still crass and trashy Liking to be entertained by it says a lot about the audience. People can do what they want, but this kind of garbage should never be state sponsored, hosted on government property, nor be a source of profit for a sitting president, I mean sitting wannabe Roman emperor.

            I agree. That is not what I was laughing about. Come on, man.

              Do you think it was classy for the UFC fighter to call the former FLOTUS a "man" at a US Government-sponsored even on the White House lawn? That has nothing to do with "white folks" or virtue signaling.

It could also be implied from that term that this default geniality does not as readily apply to other colors of skin: you never hear of brown, black, red (except for those wearing U of U colors), etc. trash. I am embarassed for anyone who uses the term white trash.
                White trash shouldn't be considered hate speech. Trash, I can see. There is nothing wrong about "white". But I still don't think calling someone "trash", although uncouth, is anywhere near hate speech.

                    I think of “white trash” as being a subset of “trash”, not a subset of “white”. So to me, calling it racist is a big stretch.

                    Although with MMA, there are a lot of non-white participants and fans. But I bet the audience on the White House lawn wasn’t very diverse.

                      As stated above UFC isn't my thing but it's still just a sport. Most of my friends enjoy it. As I've watched clips of the event, I found there was. a lot more to it than just the UFC stuff. Pastrana had his Nitro Circus crew out performing, the flyover was spectacular Zac Brown did the National Anthem, and the US Marine Band played the walkout music. I find most of that entertaining. As stated previously, it looked like it was well done and a good time.

                      I suppose we could debate the appropriateness of hosting the event at the White House, but I don't think having it there was a big deal. I certainly think that the comparison to ancient Rome is ridiculous. Much ado about nothing.

                        I hadn't heard white trash was racist until yesterday.

                        But, I'd be interested to hear the reception of brown trash, black trash, red trash and yellow trash, when used.

                          I meant it to convey redneckish, but more tacky and vapid.

                            Hear me out: if a white person uses the term "white trash" how is that racist? How is that different from blacks using the N-word colloquially?

                                What about White-Honky.. As Robert Downie Jr would say. “What do you mean about YOU people.” Another example of how the use of racism sure does swing one direction in words. Which is exactly the point of that joke..
