Is "WARNING: HOMOPHOBIC HUMOR AHEAD" the new "I don't mean to be racist" ?

... takes one to know one ...
If you think gay is the new black, DOM the new Jim Crow, then yes. I would imagine so.
Now, do I get the benefit of:
WARNING: OLD WHITE CRACKER HUMOR AHEAD
WARNING: COUNTRY REDNECK HUMOR AHEAD
WARNING: ANTI-SCIENCE CHRISTIAN HUMOR AHEAD
Not that I need or expect them mind you as I can laugh at myself from time to time.
How about you? Heard any good Marxist jokes lately?
Man, I really wish we'd have more "old white cracker" humour around these parts, I sure do miss it...
Oh yeah, I remember all those cracker references, you're so right...
now all we have is the
cook rights
and
left overs
Noticed you dropped the "old white." Not that old white and cracker aren't redundant.
see, here's where things get sticky.
since i "know" INDY, i know the manner in which the joke was intended, and we have to give him points for being clever, and also for it rising above the usual "silly faggot, dicks are for chicks" humor.
however, if i didn't "know" INDY, and if the post had no context or history, then i think it's possible to find the post mildly offensive, since a (likely) straight man is calling a (confirmed) gay man a fruit, there's something uncomfortable about it due to a long history where (likely) straight men have bashed and killed (confirmed, usually) gay men. it's certainly not the equivalent of using a well-known slur like "faggot."
much more clever than macaca, anyway.
I understand this, but in a public forum where the jokes are usually aimed directly to you, i.e. "American fabulousism" "rubbing weiners" it just shows poor decorum.
unless something is overtly bigoted
why focus and harp on it.

the "rubbing weiners" "joke" was, indeed, in very poor taste.
this one, not as much.
i found the "rubbing weiners" comment overtly bigoted. and said so.
I really think this is over kill
this board attracts a broad range of posters from different communities, environments and backgrounds
unless something is overtly bigoted
why focus and harp on it.
I also find it odd that some want to keep a cumulative score card and bring that to the table to make a judgment about a single post or incident
