Yep, a lot of white people too. Who would have figured.

As far as the "Hunger Games" go, these people are a small bunch compared to the volume that made up the $155 million dollar opening weekend. I fail to see that even 5% of the fans feel the same way. This is nothing new claiming that they are not racist by taking cowardice behind a computer.

Yeah, but it's embarrassing for the rest of us. Every time some dumb shit white guy says something racist, I feel embarrassed just for being a dumb shit white guy myself.

So, on behalf of all dumb shit white guys, I apologize for all the stupid, racist things we say and do.

Oh Christian Finnegan, every generation feels they're the "dignity" generation when faced with the ones that come after.

They are often right.

Well, YOU are not a dumb shit. So he's not speaking for you. Thankfully.

Some folks just can't wait to white-guilt themselves into an early grave. Fuck that.

I'm in love with Christian!!!!!!

I don't know how Chemda was expecting 100% on the "are you racist" poll.

All black people I've interacted with were racist (at least 5!), and most Asians are too. I think racism is only out of vogue in coastal America and some parts of Western Europe, everywhere else it's pretty well accepted, and this podcast has international listeners.

Although I voted "no", I did honestly pause and think about it first. I do have friends of many races, and I wouldn't discriminate against people or post horrible twitter or facebook mesages out of hate....

But I can't honestly say that I do not hold any stereotypes that affect my internal thoughts. And maybe some of them are negative. Does that count as racist?


I just assumed the people that voted "yes" are still good people who treat others equally.

I'm not answering the poll because it's probably a trick question.

Keith's racist test is genius, by the way.

Great episode.

edit: oh, and those racist Hunger Games readers are the worst. I caught the information about the darker skin right away while reading, but I also have a slightly darker complexion. Wonder if that's related.
