What would happen if whites started WET like Blacks did BET? - GoFuckYourself.com

Harmon · 12-14-2005, 01:46 PM

Would there be any issues? I'm watching BET right now and was just thinking about the ramifications. BTW, I am not racist in anyway but the double standards kind of make me chuckle... am I wrong?

WET may not be acceptable here, but maybe in Africa, where white people are the minority, it's a different story?

Shaft_1971 · 12-14-2005, 01:53 PM

All the other channels on TV are WET.

There would be such an outcry and black people would bitch and talk about how "their people" were enslaved over 150 years ago and how the white man is always keeping them down, which is the reason why they can't find jobs and have to commit crimes and collect welfare their whole life.

Bullshit. Blacks are well represented by the major networks. Whites are purposely kept off BET.

This is a valid point. While I did use to make the exact same comment/joke I had never really watched BET. When you take the time to watch you realize that it does reflect a culture and attitude not present in most programs which are predominantly white. For instance on Sunday Mornings I will often flip over to BET where they usually have a couple hours of Gospel Music, and I just can't get enough Gospel Music for some reason, all the hands clapping yelling and praising...I'm not that religious by any stretch of the word but it always puts me in a good mood. You will find alot of Music Videos that MTV does not even consider putting on the air. Their Sitcom and Drama based Television also portrays a culture, attitude and specific situations that you will not find in Network TV. You do see a good number of african american based sitcom's on the WB and UPN, but nothing much more than that I believe. So I guess I have come to see the validity behind the channel, even though I still find humor in the name.

i find it funny that a lot of black people pull the slavery card, but fact remains, only about 5% of all slaves came to america....slavery was not as present here as some people make it out to be

there is not one person in my family tree that ever owned a slave, so why do I get bitched at for all slave owning people?

sad part is too, is that BLACK people sold BLACK people into slavery.....but you don't ever hear that when the slavery card is pulled, do you?

sorry, that shit just pisses me off

research the white slave trade, hundreds of men were stolen from cornwall (UK county) and taken to tunisia as slaves. They were proper slaves as well, not given houses like half the american black slaves

exactly, it only makes the gap bigger between the two races.

You've never seen a white person on BET? They had white jazz musicians on just the other day. Yes, its true.

Those networks are not centered around race nor are black people excluded from those networks. Nothing short of WET is equivalent to BET.

Deepai · 12-14-2005, 05:14 PM

I'd watch it, just to see all of my favorite minorty acted commercials, done by white people.

BET was created out of neccecssity. It is a vehicle for black artists to express themselves. Calling BET reverse racism is like calling UNIVISION or TELEMUNDO the same becuase they broadcast Hispanic enteratinment targeted at STRICTLY a Hispanic audience.

And lets not forget its owned by Viacom....not a bunch of honky hating niggas.

escorpio · 12-14-2005, 05:22 PM

Univision is in spanish.

And it has the hottest women on the planet.

Yup but both Telemundo and Univision are based out of the United States and clearly target the Spanish demographic. And though the stations name isn't SET...it mind as well be.

Programs like Friends, Will and Grace and countless others all target a certain demographic. It's done in the content, jokes, writing, advertising, set pieces, clothing, culture. 18-35 white males and females. If that is not discrimiinative practices I don't know what is.

You guys are looking into this way too much. If BET wasn't called BET it would be just another UPN or WB but with music.

And for the record I don't agree with BET's programming choices and the way it perpetuates racial stereotypes....so its crap anyways.

Black people still own black people in Africa.

That being acknowledged, it's still true that there has been and continues to be a problem with racism in this country. Whatever the reason.

I see your point regarding spanish language television produced in the U.S. but I don't agree 100%. Targeting a demographic seperated by language is different than catering to a demo that simply wants to identify by race. BET being crap for perpetuating bling and booty stereotypes I agree with.
