And racist Westworld isn’t happening? Why are people like you even watching the show? The whole fucking thing has gone over your head.

I have to imagine it’s just trolling now. The parellels between classic western and samurai movies were made even clearer this week.

How about the homos like me who think they shouldn’t be shoehorned in. Or is my opinion not good enough because it doesn’t fit your narrative?

(a) On Deadspin being to the right of Mao basically makes you an alt-right sympathizer, regardless of the actual details of your views. I’m exaggerating of course, but it’s not that far off from the truth.
(b) Even if the above weren’t true, I’m sure most of the Deadspin staff have a huuuuuuuuuge problem with

Man, motherfuck baseball, sometimes.

True; it’s just that LeBron could end up in L.A. and so could Paul George. Doesn’t have to be an either/or thing. Paul has plenty of options, and I can only imagine that list gets deeper if OKC winds up on the outside of the playoffs.

Hell yeah

Harden gets it 11 times out of 10.

2013 was five years ago, genius

From the title, I thought they were taunting black people. I mean, “CHANTING”, really?

It turns out they were singing along to a song.

I’m sorry, but this is pure clickbait.

Context is huge, I’m sorry. They’re not calling someone it, not even trying to use it to refer to someone they like.

They are singing along to a

So this is a moment where young ladies still in school are learning that white people really shouldn’t ever use the word, even when they’re singing along to a pop song and not attempting to denigrate anyone. Is that not the quintessence of a teachable moment? This is clearly not coming from a place of hate or anger,

You must really get off hard from hyperbolic moralizing in defense of people who either don’t exist or haven’t asked for your help.

I’m a black guy and I’m just not going to get worked up over this. It’s just silly to expect songs to have a word in them that only part of the population is allowed to say. It’s one thing for a white person to call me the n-word, it’s another to rap along with a song. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been around

you wrote that you want some young women to be physically assaulted for their poor judgment in song choice to sing along to. that sort of psychopathic thinking is hurtful to society as a whole.

lol you want to ruin their lives cuz they had the audacity to sing along to some rap lyrics? you’re a fucking psychopath, get the fuck off the internet.

Hahaha.

Why wouldn’t the pleas to remove a video that literally only harms the people in the video be self centered? It’s literally people singing along to a song.

I mean, they aren’t just “chanting” it, it’s the lyrics. From a song about a white guy being a black guy for a day, where the conceit of the song is that that’s actually Lil Dicky rapping AS Chris Brown saying the N word because he can.
Don’t say the N word is a good policy.

I must be getting old. I thought the headline was referring to them literally just yelling the N word. But no....its a song..........

They were singing lyrics to a song. Nobody chanted “Nigger”.
