Is it Racist? Pat Robertson Calls Mac ‘n Cheese a “Black Thing”
Ah yes, it’s time for another episode of “Is it Racist?” Like many of our other episodes, it features a person older than civilization, however we may not make exceptions for old people, especially when they work in television. This week, we have Pat Robertson, notoriously off-his-rocker Christian TV show host, who has in the past said that the Haiti earthquake was the Haitians fault for having a “pact with the Devil.” Let’s check out the video, shall we?
Alright, the debators:
In one corner, we have NO, IT’S NOT RACIST. Their arguments:
-He seems genuinely interested about the origins of macaroni and cheese
-His suspicion is confirmed by his black co-host
In the other corner, we have YES, IT’S TOTALLY RACIST. Their arguments:
-Pat Robertson is definitely racist
-He’s also probably clinically insane.
-He uses the term “black thing.”
-And lastly, MACARONI AND CHEESE IS NOT A BLACK THING.
As always, it’s up to you. So, Pat Robertson asking if mac and cheese is “a black thing”… IS IT RACIST?
