Racism
By takeitnomore

As a fan of Trek, I have been coming to this site for some time. I never felt the need to post an opinion until now. O. Deus uses a racially derogative word to describe a character in the last Enterprise episode. The future son of Trip and T'Pol is refered to as a "Redneck Vulcan." The term "redneck" is the same as "nigger, spik or gook." But it seems perfectly acceptable to use this term to degrade white people. When Tuvok appeared on Voyager, was he refered to as the first "Nigger Vulcan?" Of course not. That would be racist. Then what is "Redneck Vulcan?" Don't get me wrong. I am not saying Tuvok should be refered to with a racially derogative term. I am saying that white people also deserve to be treated with the same respect. What gets me, is how many white people just sit back and let this double standard go. And people like O. Deus and Jeff Foxworthy use this term against white people would never have the guts to use racially derogative terms against other races, and would call me racist for pointing out this hypocrisy. Those who call me racist need to go get a dictionary and look up the definition. I am no racist. I am simply sick of the prejudice against white people. I expect it on Def Comedy Jam and Dave Chapelle. These people have made careers of making fun of white people. But if a white person did the exact same things, we are called racist. Grow a set, and complain to the webmaster, producers and even the FCC. This double standard needs to be stopped. It is not right that every other race has protections, while it is open season on OUR people.
