Nikola Posted June 9, 2020 Author Posted June 9, 2020 (edited) I have seem him talking in favor of pakistan and psl recently alot since he knows his ipl career is almost over and his future is in PSL (as coach maybe). I am Pretty sure he knew what it meant back then. I guess there is some agenda behind this. What you guys think? Edited June 9, 2020 by Nikola
coffee_rules Posted June 9, 2020 Posted June 9, 2020 (edited) Kaala, Kaalu Kallu although means black, but derogatory nonetheless.. sorry Sammy! Ishant, WTF man Edited June 9, 2020 by coffee_rules
Clarke Posted June 9, 2020 Posted June 9, 2020 It's not necessarily meant in a racist sense, they don't regard him as an inferior. Seen many such descriptions being used for nicknames, chotu/lambu types, sometimes based on eye color or hair length/curls.

Norman Posted June 9, 2020 Posted June 9, 2020 I will never understand this but why do they get offended when people (other than whites) call them black ? I mean yes I know terms like "Ni**er" are used in a condescending manner in the West (by the whites) and I'm against it for historical reasons but what's wrong in calling them black ? Why the insecurity ? It's just the freaking colour of your skin. Why the negative connotation for being of the colour black? raki05, someone, maniac and 1 other 4

Is calling gora also racist? Brown? With this line, eventually calling anyone by their eternity will be an offense. Silly....

Kallu, kaala, kaalu is not appropriate, derogatory, may be not racist, but the tone is condescending. [saala] kallu [BC.] Gollum 1

MechEng Posted June 9, 2020 Posted June 9, 2020 Just now, coffee_rules said: What is pewdipie? Famous youtuber with 2nd highest subscribers in the world. Bobs and vagene jokes may look harmless on surface but it amplifies the image of Indian men being creeps especially after the way media blows rape cases in India out of proportion. Have to say that Indians are easily the mentally toughest when it comes to having a thick skin. coffee_rules 1

Maybe cashing on the current situation. Maybe it was said in a funny way, as I have seen Desis calling blacks, kaalu in India and sniggering. There are some jokes about watching WI and Eng cricket in a B&W TV , it is tough to set the contrast right, if it is too light , we can only see WI team and if it too dark, we can’t see WI players. Maybe it funny for some in India. If I see such WA forwards in US, I do object. It is insensitive and a bad joke in US. Just like the slur Baki is racist in UK, but not anywhere else.
