I was listening to that CKNW this morning and some East Indian broadcaster used the word "redneck" to describe white Canadians.  Now I sure as hell would hear about it if I was on the radio and called Chinese c***s or East Indians pakis and I think the term redneck the way they use it is also offensive.  What do you think because I might complain to the CRTC about this one.

It's in the CKNW audio vault and as best I can tell since he has a harsh accent, he says "The time should come when rednecks accomodate most immigrants..."

I think that's offensive as if I said "It's time most c***s adopted Canadian ways".

But the term rednecks did not imply all whites, right?  Whereas the term c***s implies all Chinese.  Now if he said Cracker or honkees you might have stood a chance[Smiley]

Cracker is the same as redneck, they're carry the same meaning.  I sent a complaint and we'll see what happens.  I'm pissed the f*** off.

I didn't think they carried the same meaning - but good luck with your complaint.

What's your point you f***ing whore?  I'm saying it's the same god damned thing for a coloured to call a white person a redneck as it is for a white person to call an Oriental a c***.

And talk about being racist, the more I hear from you and your type the more I become racist I'm so sick of your bullsh-.

I'm tough but I'm fair and when I come across something that's not right I stand up to it because if you don't you're nothing in this world, you're a punk.

I would be offended if somebody called me a redneck. It has an ugly history of race and class based discrimination.

Well as long as that's right out in the open, that's good









Now redneck implies someone of a certain political stripe, there are many whites who are not redneck, but in your own words, all c***s are c***s. Cutie laid it out for you but you are blinded by rage.

I think "redneck" is basically the same as calling an Asian "coolie" and neither are appropriate in civil society.

Yep now I thought redneck would be the same as WOG ( worker of the ground).

Maybe we should let this thread die and let MM get on with his complaint!

I though Wog came from Golliwogg....

But, yes, I agree, Cutie.

But hey where did Golliwogg come from?

2 definitions of WOG that I know are "worker of the ground" similar to redneck or "worldly oriental gentleman" which tends to be forgotten about!  I find it interesting as a use of the English language.  Now redneck is also a worker of the land.  Please step in and correct me if I'm wrong.  Not all white, asian, africans work on the land in this day and age?

i agree with mm. we are moving far too many clandestine and serpentine ppl into our country that have no plans of ever becoming fellow canadians. we should have learned from japan's attack on pearl harbour. i'm not saying all the japanese in the west are eastern in thinking. i'm saying that canadian japs would have bowed to hirohito if the japs won while i would have never bowed to a jap and died as a canadian. imagine what will happen in canada when war begins with china on the opposing side?
