Tariq Nasheed calls mentally ill hotel worker racist (warning: disturbing video)
https://www.lgbtqnation.com/2021/04/dist...st-mocked/
“World’s #1 Race Baiter” Tariq Nasheed implied the mentally ill hotel worker was racist when it was the customer hurling slurs. Now the man is suicidal. "
Quote:Twitter activist Tariq Nasheed describes himself as the “world’s #1 Race Baiter” but his latest claims of racism has Twitter lashing back after he posted video of a mentally ill gay man having a breakdown at work.
The Holiday Inn Express employee is obviously in distress as the customer, who had reportedly hurled anti-gay slurs at the young man, films and harasses him. In a post to Reddit, the man said he is now suicidal after the humiliation both at work and online.
“I basically went viral because of my schizo-affective disorder documented by a rude customer at an establishment which I was employed,” he wrote in a post in the “helpme” subreddit. He also said he had been drinking nonstop since the incident and hadn’t slept.
“Why can’t people have basic human kindness and compassion for one someone obviously not sound?” he added.
The customer was reportedly upset about a mix-up with the hotel’s reservation system. While the employee is meek and obviously distressed, the customer continues to harangue him until the young employee starts hitting himself with the computer monitor. He eventually breaks down in tears and leaves the desk.
The customer moves to a window to continue filming the young man as he sobs, mocking him and continuing to complain about his issue.
Is this "woke culture" going too far, and can this be blamed directly on "woke culture"? What do you think?

I think it's entitlement culture run amok. No one gives a shit about anyone else, they just want what they want mos' rickey-tick and have no compunctions about how their feelz might hurt other living, breathing human beings. They don't give a fuck. They don't. The customer is always right and never has to think about how their actions affect others.

I spent some years in department stores where "the customer was always right" even when they were not only "not right" but also fucking crazy. And I had no mental/social/gender issues to deal with, so I could deal with it more easily. It is the customer who can't be civil in this case who is to blame.
My sympathies to the clerk, struggling to deal with the harsh situation.
Never argue with people who type fast and have too much time on their hands...

That's possibly one of the most reprehensible attacks on a worker simply trying his
best to serve a customer that I've seen in recent times. Whoever this black cunt
Tariq Nasheed is, he'd be charged with homophobic vilification and possibly assault
here in Australia. Why is it that Twitter let his video be posted in the first place, and
why have they not taken it down, and also banned Nasheed for posting it?
Obviously this piece of shit believes that BLM more than white lives.
As an afterthought... imagine if you will that the races were reversed. There's be
massive protest marches, public vandalism, looting and burning etc by the BLM
movement.
But apparently we whites just have to suck it up from these sub-human negroes?
(...yes I'm fucking angry)
I'm a creationist; I believe that man created God.

As wrong as this asshole was, it doesn't mean anything considering any race as a whole. Anger's no excuse to dehumanize an entire group of, yes, humans.

Unfortunate.

Indeed. Generalizing from the actions of some individuals to the characters of all the individuals of a grouping is the wellspring of bigotry and prejudice.

SYZ should try being me for a day. Tons of shit in my life I'm angry about but can't do shit about. I haven't freaked the fuck out about it yet. Try keeping a secret for years, that could potentially destroy a family. Don't think he'd last a second.
(I bring this up only to demonstrate how psychologically inferior SYZ is).

That man was a cruel, selfish idiot who, given an ounce of power over a fellow human bein will abuse them the moment they don't show enough serviability. To me, this has nothing to do with race or "woke culture". It's just an incredible asshole insulting someone else with the intend to mak them suffer as much as possible using "racist" as a slur much like "idiot" or "incompetent" could have been used.
PS: Tariq Nasheed was previously well known to be a failed pick-up-artist and extreme misogyny, especially toward black women to whom he refered as "a bunch of traitorous negro bed wench who only want to sleep with white men". The man is as toxic as it's possible to be.

We all have our own crosses to bear.
I just have a big problem with labelling any human "sub-human". That way lies horrors, and it's very different from your own travails. I get @ SYZ's anger over this asshole's behavior, but that is no reason to rely on sloppy thinking or slipping into bigoted language.

LOL... wow! Just wow.
If you wanna upset an American, just use the word "negro" or "nigger".
It's like a match to touchpaper for some unknown reason. And from a
people who tolerated slavery and suppression of African-Americans for
200 years! Hypocrisy anybody?

There are some folks who, for whatever reason(s), are insecure enough to feel the need to make a public demonstration of "superiority". In this case, we see someone who rails against bigotry actually using bigotry as a weapon (remember, he called his victim "faggot"). What that tells me is that Nasheed's activism is not a matter of thoughtful consideration, but rather comes from a place of "anything I can do to get one-up on you".
It gives him the reek of phony. You can't protest bigotry in one setting, and practice it in another, without being a hypocrite.

Racism in the US is a match to paper. It is not the same as in Australia, nor the same as in Germany. Racism comes in different degrees and flavors, just like anything else. Direct translations of statements take on a whole different meaning in the different cultures because of the intonations and associations with those words.
I don't think you are a misogynist for throwing the word cunt around, it just has different connotations where you live. Possibly your racial expressions fall in the same category. I don't know.

Or, perhaps, it could be that with our long history, we know how hurtful words can be.
At any rate, my objection here is to you using the term "sub-human", not "negro" or "nigger" or any other colloquial slur. That's because terming someone "sub-human" cuts across all races, and dehumanizes a human being.
But hey, we're all Americans and react alike, right? Stop broad-brushing, goddamnit. It's beneath you -- or at least it should be.
ETA: Blacks in America have been enslaved or repressed for 400 years, not 200. Perhaps getting such a basic fact wrong gives others insight into why you don't understand America's race issues and our attempts to fix them?

Well, the "we whites" can be totally harmless, after all I haven't heard of Aussie cops running around killing resident blacks. The division may not mean the same as it does here.
The word "negroes", again, may not have the connotations it has here, either. "subhuman", however does set off even my alarms, I don't see how cultural differences can change the connotations of that word.

It can be totally harmless, but when he uses "subhuman negroes" in the same sentence as "we whites", I'm far less inclined to believe "we whites" is harmless.

Very well-put, Dom. Racial slurs in one place may simply be the jargon of another, with no slurring implied. But labelling another human being "subhuman" lies at the root of bigotry. Such terms should be argued wherever they appear.
If that makes me a hypersensitive American, fuck it, I'm game. I've got a few of those "sub-humans" in my family. I'll fight that term everywhere I see it.

I'm also highly suspicious of people who have an angry outburst, and then tell me to be rational (which he did in another thread after I badgered him a little).
