it's not bashing. it was an astute observation of today how much rabo suck on their bikes. literally every crash todya was caused by a rabo rider.

The issue here is that there were no South Americans involved, so bashing them out of the blue just as a way to get back to Ryo gets pretty tiresome.

By the way, I don't see many people offended when someone mentions the Bleeding Carrots.

I don't think so. He's offending a lot of people as well. Anyway, this is being blown way out of proportion. Is today's stage really that boring?

I guess, you both, qualify as bigots in my book :D

Yikes, genuinely thick. How sad.

It you say something about a group which contains every single racial grouping within it, by definition your statement can not be racist.

How can you be judging someone by their race when you are saying it about every race?

Or do you think being South American is defined by your race? Almost as dumb as the statement above.

bashing rabo every stage gets tiresome too. We know they suck but to reiterate that every stage...yawn

you hear nobody say how much coldeportes sucks this season every day either. And rightfully so (it gets tiresome)

I was wrong, my first thought was, that you can say it's racist when the color of the skin is different, but actually if someone say something negative about a country and about the people in it then it can be racist too, but yes, move on!

They caught the break relatively early today, too bad a few more couldn't go with Bak, would've made it a bit more interesting

can you even read? my post was a response to someone saying the claim about south americans couldn't be racist because south americans are also white. that statement alone is racist itself

No, I'm sorry, you either can not read (with full comprehension), or are very stupid.

He said there are white people too

I.e. 'South American' is not a racial group. Therefore you can not be racist by judging them as a group. You can be foolish, but not racist.

You are right that saying you can not be racist against white people is stupid, but that is not what anyone said - please feel free to go back and check for yourself.
