Cracker isn't anywhere close to the N word.

I know because we can say cracker. No one calls it "the C word".
So your right to be “offended” by a collection of letters is greater than that of someone else to be offended by a collection of letters? What word did you use earlier... hypocrite.
You still didnt answer my question.

He doesnt get a pass because hes black. He wants an apology for something that he did too.

When you try to pretend that you're offended by someone calling you a cracker you just look like an idiot.

Because one side says that Black Lives Matter and is fighting for equality and the other side is a racist piece of shit saying things that would get a person of color fired.
They burn buildings and murder political opponents in the street.

Colby is a dip shit and his act is annoying as fuck, nothing he said was racist though
'Who did you get a call from? You get a call from, frickin', your little tribe? They give you some smoke signals for you?'

As a general rule, fighters and the media really need to start calling out ESPN/Disney and their sponsors over shit like this if they want change.

There is no point going after the UFC middleman - start going after the people that pay the UFC for its content. Dana doesn't give a sh*t if he is peddling racism because it won't hurt and might even help his bottom line. He's a fucking scumbag cage fighting promoter and just inherently a disgusting human being.

But the overlords at Disney who worry about putting a happy, diverse face on their corporation in order to sell princess toys to little girls might blink if they start seeing headlines like 'Disney promotes racism in cage fighting'. If stakeholders can make Disney regret thinking they can get into the cage fighting business without getting some shit smeared on their other businesses, they can start making inroads on issues like fighter pay too.

nothing colby said was actually racist the tribe thing was maybe condescending and un pc but he was also doing that to be edgy it is this type of exaggerated overreaction that is getting cities looted and destroyed by the BLM rioters/terrorists.

As long as you burn down shit, loot, beat up old people and claim whomever you hurt was "racist", it's all good..oh and don't forget, make sure you don't want a Nuclear family structure orv you're racist too.
