Justin Bieber says N-word

i've heard this shit before , he probably has a ton of jewish jokes too.....he's taking part in it but he didn't start it ....little asshat why is that on video tho?
 
This is not even surprising to me. I'm damn sure he uses It every day amongst all his friends, including the black one's and they give him the "white people pass" because he's down. It's still fucked up though.
 
Guys,

Which one is worst: Dr Dre beating up a woman 20 years ago or Justin Bieber using the n word 5 years ago?

Pls advise
 
His friend's a hero though. Not many kids would stand up to their friends and educate them when they say something ignorant...and especially if that friend were a megastar.
 
Stupid joke, heard it when I was 12 and didn't find it funny then.

I would be tempted to say he can't be judged to the standards of a 'normal' person as he was thrown into the limelight at such a young age, got very rich very quick, and is surrounded by yes men who probably kiss his arse and inflate his ego 24/7.

However, the sheer amount of stupid shit he has done over the years (and I realise this video was taken a couple of years ago) just add up to me saying fuck him.

And he's a lot older here. Well now.
 
This guy is a grade a delta bravo and has been one for years now. He is the antithesis of what I want for my son. That said, I would expect most folks who survived their mid-teens probably have something locked away in the recesses of their mind that they said, did, took part in, or stood by and watched that they are deeply ashamed of and would be mortified/crucified/ridiculed if it were recorded and released for the world at a later time. For me the key to examining something like this is if a pattern developed that shows the particular behavior continued to develop or if it was a one-off isolated event or just an aspect of teenage growth. While again, Bieber is a deplorable person, I can't think of any other race driven complaints, not that I follow him beyond the headlines.
 
What a racist jackass.

And I doubt he's changed since then, considering the nonsense he's been up to recently. Introspection is probably not Justin Bieber's strong suit
 
I wasn't supposed to laugh, but I did.

This looks like it was damn near 6 years ago. I'd ask his parents where he got that joke from, since he was still living under their roof then. Also, given his crews, I think it's fair to assume he doesn't find that humorous anymore.

he young tho

Anyone mind telling me where a young kid might learn this stuff from?

well shit. I have no idea what's on his mind. I just know he rolls with a team of brothas.
 
Didn't think it was possible, but there are people actually trying to defend him in this thread.

Please blast off to Jupiter with that shit.

DMeister, you are not this daft.

He's a kid. Kid's are prone to saying stupid shit and finding offensive things funny. It would explain why my 10 year old cousins has an obsession with watching R Rated films and saying the F word while his mom isn't around.

People grow up, mature, and get life experiences. If you are going to belittle the guy for being an early or pre teenager and try to hold him up to some moral coda, than you should really reassess what you expect out of people. It's unreasonable to try and make this into a race issue. He's a kid being a kid, yeah its stupid and racist, but kids have done and said much worse things to me.

As long as there is a taboo associated with the n-word, the immature and politically incorrect nature of youth will abuse it.

I loathe Beiber as much as the next guy, but I agree with this. People can and do change.

Speculation is that it was taken 3 years ago, so he would have been 17. Don't know about anyone else but I knew at age 17 that jokes like these are not socially acceptable.
 
Oh come on. Are you seriously accusing him of being a racist if he ONCE (especially since it looks like he was in his teens at the time of the recording) made a joke which had a word nigger. If that makes him a racist, then I guess I must be too.
 
Not that I love Beiber, but so what? Raise your hand if you've never once said that word in a joke context, kids make that mistake all the time and learn from it. Not saying it's right, but the only reason this is getting any sort of attention is because he's famous and it was recorded. Let's put your guys' childhoods under a microscope and see what comes up. Get off your high and mighty asses.

Bieber should NEVER be using that word in a joke context. Ever. The rest of your reasoning is noise.

It's so weird to me. I know little about the kid, but a black guy (Usher) gave him his big break, and most of the artists and producers I've seen him rolling around with since his balls dropped and voice deepened have been black.

So I really don't know what to think. It's like trying to connect two very different pieces of a puzzle together. Will the real Beibs please stand up.
 
It is really odd, being a massive star at such a young age, being so rich, being surrounded by hangers on kissing your arse constantly, all of that must add up to thinking you are untouchable. It's the spitting on fans/going nuts when someone wants to take a picture/ abusing a air hostess that gets me. That points for me him being seriously mentally unstable and would be shocked if he doest end up in rehab/dead before age 30.

Ok? Lmao, all you really said was that you're both probably racist. I don't understand.
 
I was expecting the clip to be way worse. That just seemed like a group of stupid teen friends telling each other dumb vulgar jokes they read online.

In a post 9/11 world, I lived in Madison, Alabama. Where every single day I was judged, critcized, and socially questioned. That sort of thing didn't bother me. That's outward racism, which Beebs is doing a perfect example of here.

The shit that hurt me, were things no one says, but feels on the inside. The innate racism. The racism taught at home, but never said publicly. The "don't trust him, but say hello" bullshit.

For example, I remember being invited to a friend's Church once. I came in early and sat in the first row on the right bench. As people began filing in, not a single person came to sit by me, let alone did any one say hello to me.

Racism, bigotry, and misgivings - will always exist. There is no reason to be over sensitive. I've always felt like it's my duty to rise above the stereotype and through my personality and communication skills- to change people's belief and coda.

Fantastic last paragraph.
Excellent attitude towards life.
Your actions actually WILL make a difference in our world!

Rise above (figurative) your label and you can evolve beyond its social limitations. If that makes sense.

Goosebumps... :)
 
You don't say, he's also a foul mouth in addition to being a terrible human being and a complete asshole?
 
This just in: a young kid makes a racist joke.

I think he's a douche, don't get me wrong, but most kids make racist jokes at some point.

He's just a kid at this point.

I wonder if he ever said the joke to his black friend who copped the drugs possession charge for him?

Well if you are willing to go to jail in exchange for money, you're probably willing to suffer through racist shit for it too. I'm sure all his "friends" are laughing at his stupid jokes whether they're white, black or what have you. Doesn't mean they don't secretly want to smash his head in :P.
 
I feel sorry for him sometimes. He's a misguided douche who seems to have had a lack of parenting early on. Can he even legally drink yet? Obviously racist jokes are bad. But dude's a kid. What kid hasn't done/said something equally stupid?
 
Cloudy said:
No, it's not like that at all. It's just a racial joke and he probably heard it watching some black standup guy.

Something tells me your average black standup is not going to tell that joke

I would imagine the majority of us said a lot of dumb shit when we were 15.

I see this "defense" come up a lot, but is it hard to imagine that not everyone is a teenage idiot
 
It would be upsetting if he was older, but i honestly am not bothered by this. Its like getting upset at a 5 year old for shitting his pants. He should be getting over that by that point, but he's mentally a 5 year old... what do you expect.

As sad as this sounds, this sort of mentality is prevalent everywhere. It's sad, but it's reality. Racism at some level (being Pakistani and Muslim) exists whether outwardly stated or not.

In any case, Justin looks really young in the video, and despite the myriad of "Fuck Beiber" posts that are going to come raining down, I'd like to think he's 'just a kid'. Kid's say stupid things, kid's behave in dumb ways, and kid's are prone to being jackasses.

The following years would catapult his career and put him squarely in the same rooms as Usher, Kanye West, and plenty of other prolific, talented, and famous African Americans. I would hope, atleast by this point, the kid has wised up and broadened his views on race.

In any case, he's a kid, and kid's say dumb things. Let's not tear him down for this. There's are plenty of other reasons to criticize him, but using this as ammo, an antiquated video of a boy not yet into the realm of stardom, is just plain reaching.

(Also I am assuming this is Justin pre-his famous years)
Click to expand...

I completely agree. Kids have no legal authority over themselves because we expect them to say and do a lot of stupid things; in a sense, thats a big part of what growing up is about.

I feel that when rappers use the N-word in their tracks, it perpetuates the use of the slur.

What does the N-word even mean to young people these days?
Click to expand...

I'm pretty sure kids understand the difference between nigga and nigger. Most rap songs use nigga, which is a poor way to take the word back. He'll there was even a boondocks episode about this.

Kids apdo dumb things but aren't dumb, I'm not sure how it is up in canada but in the states the intentions of nigga and nigger are very clear.

And now I dislike Bieber even more, would you look at that.

Well, having read the rest of this thread, I'm once again disappointed in people. Do yourself a favor and avoid the rest of this thread if you see this.

No, really, don't look at it, it's awful.

I should have listened to this.
 
and this was back in his more "innocent" days too judging by how he looks. I thought he just became a piece of shit as time went on but it seems he was always like that

No.

No no no no no.

Hell no.

We are not about to normalize this shit. Like it's OK to go through a racist joke phase. We all went through a racist joke phase, right? I mean, you must have had a really sheltered childhood if you didn't tell a few jigaboo jokes, amirite? Because I sure didn't, and neither did any of the kids I grew up with.

Making jokes like this, thinking it's ok, and RECORDING that shit takes a special kind of ignorance and privilege.

Please. Are you saying you've never shot the shit with your friends and said a few racist jokes/dead baby jokes? I'm sure that JB has nothing against black people.
 
Cloudy said:
Or maybe I've actually experienced real racism so I know it when I see it? I've only been called a nigger to my face once and I'll never forget it.

I'm just having a hard time pumping up my outrage meter at jokes I've heard many times from other black folks. There's also a joke about black men and pizza (look it up) which I first heard from black folks. It's funny while being racial and stereotypical but I wouldn't call a white person a racist just for telling or laughing at it..

No.

And the fact that you find that so damn hard to believe tells me more about you than it tells you about me.

There's no fucking such thing as the "innocent racist joke phase." If that's something you did as a child because your ass didn't know any better, fine. But then admit the shit was wrong. Admit the bad stock. Don't try to argue that anybody should just be ok with it because Justin's youth warranted him a racist dumbass pass.
