A delegation of foreign communists came to see a Moscow kindergarten. Before they came, the kids were instructed to answer every question by the visitors with just one sentence, "In the USSR everything is the best in the world."
The visitors came and asked their questions:
"Children, do you like your kindergarten?"
"In the USSR everything is the best in the world!" the kids shouted.
"And what about the food you get?"
"In the USSR everything is the best in the world!"
"Do you like your toys?"
"In the USSR everything is the best in the world!"
At that, the smallest boy in the group started crying.
"Misha, why are you crying? What happened?"
"I want to go to the USSR!" |

Stalin summoned Radek and said, "I know you spread jokes about me. It's impertinent."
"Why?"
"I am the Great Leader, Teacher, and Friend of the people after all."
"No, I've not told anybody this joke." |

For many years the Americans have been training an agent to work in Russia. His legend was superbly elaborated. Finally he was dropped off from a plane into the Russian territory dressed in a quilted jacket, felt high boots and a cap with ear-flaps. He stepped out of the woods came to the nearest log cabin and asked the old woman who lived there for a drink.
-Are you a spy dearly, the lady asked.
-Where did you get that from, old lady.
-Well, we never saw black men in these parts before. |

If I posted something like that you'd all call me a racist.
This is SO racist! |

Black Russian:
1 1/2 oz. vodka
3/4 oz. Kahlua
Pour over ice and stir.
Hardly racist! |

Vitali, you don't know what racist means. What is racist about that joke? I make no insults to blacks. Where does the racism exist in that joke. You got up too early didn't you? |

Ken, I am just testifying what would happen had I posted a joke of that sort.
racism:
n.
1. The belief that race accounts for differences in human character or ability and that a particular race is superior to others.
2. Discrimination or prejudice based on race.
Ken, if you are so cool, go and tell this joke to a black person. See who will be laughing then. If you can't - do not ever make any kinds of statements of that sort even through a joke. |

| The joke is not racist at all. Infact it shows that we employ people of all races as spies, if anything it makes fun of the USA, implying that Americans are dumb and thought a black man would be able to blend into an area populated by just the opposite. Also the black man in this joke seems surprised that he was found out, further trying to prove that Americans want to create an illusion that everyone is the same, and nobody is different. Of course its an exaggeration because everyone knows there a difference in skin color, but this is afterall a joke, and jokes were meant to be stupid. Had you told this joke I would not have attacked you because I do not see it as racist. |

Here's an experiment for you then Fire. Today, go outside and tell this joke to the first black person you meet. See the result.
And... you said you have muslim friends. Are they african americans? Tell them the joke, see if they burst with laughter.
This is a joke for dummies. It's not even close to being funny. |

| Why is it so hard to understand? Any joke about Jews, Russians, blacks, Muslims, Christians and any other race, nationality or faith makes that particular race, nationality or set of beliefs look like a sore thumb. It shouldn't be acebtable. This whole thread should be locked! |

Id have no problem telling this joke. Besides arent these communist era jokes to begin with? I have muslim friends that are arab. Though I dont see what being muslim has to do with it. If this joke was about the police sending a white man to infiltrate the nation of islam, everyone and their brother would be laughing at the stupidity of it. (Nation of Islam is a racist group, with no affiliation to Islam). Anyway it is what it is. |

Fire, I cannot believe my eyes that you are not agreeing with me. I know you have your alliance with Ken, but I also know you are from CA where folks are more sensitive to that kind of talk. If you were from NC or SC I'd understand you defending Ken. |
