Grape Soda really that is considered racist yikes I can literally order Fanta Grape soda from Walmart somebody better tell them they are racist



Wouldn’t have been if he didn’t say it was named after a black person. He did it to himself on that one. It’s way below the belt.

Wonder what their feud was about to make this dude go there.

Do I get to cry and claim "racism" when a black person jokes that I want extra mayo on my sandwich? Or can I just shrug it off and get the frick over it because it's silly and not worth being offended over? Tired of douchebags being offended at shite because they're told they're supposed to be offended at shite.

I would say a bigger version of that is using the N word like a punctuation mark and then getting upset when someone else uses it.

“That’s our word!” Yeah, no shite dumbass. You use it enough.

Does this explain LeBron’s obsession with cranberry Sprite then?

The worst thing is most of those “racist origins” are wrong and completely made up.

This is why he got punished for racism.

“Grape Soda,” which can be a racist term directed at Black people


Context is important. Any term can be derogatory if used in a derogatory manner.

I always chuckle when I hear blacks use "cracker" as a derogatory term for whites, origin has nothing to do with whites/rednecks

While I agree that "Grape Soda" is weak as far as banning someone for being racist, this idiot didn't do himself any favors for tweeting that the name was in honor of a black tvg host.

I mean, you have to be smarter than that.

First I've ever heard of this. And I live in the Deep South and frequent this board which is populated by deplorables.
