is the Shoop Da Woop meme racist? | |||||||

I was wondering, I made this guy because I thought it was funny, but I always saw it as sort of a frog face cartoon, than an old fashioned racist caricature – until I actually read the encyclopedia dramatica page on it.
thoughts? |

I think if you’re worried about being racist this probably isn’t the game for you. |

I don’t know the exact origins, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it started out as a racist thing. Blackface, big lips…it’s entirely plausible. |

I disagree.
Agreeing not to get mad about racist jokes does not obligate you to make them. And maybe OP just wants to know if it would be appropriate/acceptable to make Shoop-da-Woop jokes outside of FWZ. |

gtfo.
It originated with that character from DBZ in the article (http://images.encyclopediadramatica.com/images/b/bb/Shoodawhoopanimooted.gif), not originally intended to be racist, but it seems that some the other images that spawned from it have been racist, but that goes with almost anything on the internet. |
