If it said "Blackbird is the web browser for use only by the african american community"

Then you and lowing would have a point.

But it doesn't.

Actually who cares, we (whites) did enough harm to blacks with discriminating them, let them have their "black" magazines and browsers.

Because there is an obvious double standard that society abides by when it comes to this kind of thing, why do you think there arent all white colleges? or all asian colleges or all indian colleges or all spanish colleges? but there are all black colleges?

If this hypothetical 'Whitebird' was just the same as Blackbird, then no, imo, it would not be racist.

It's only racist when one ethnic group says another ethic group must or can not do something because of their ethnic origin.

Is an 'Irish pub' racist?

If they only let Irish people in, then yes, it is.

If it's just Irish themed, then no it isn't.

It's not that hard.

This browser is a community based browser.

It is open for all to use.

It does not discriminate.

It is designed for the black community and is marketed towards them.

It does not promote segregation.

And the argument that ""Whitebird is the web browser for the white american community" would be considered racist, what real world example can you provide? Or does this imaginary double standard count as a double standard too?

no not an Irish themed pub, a pub which is intended for Irish people by Irish people, in other words a pub which preferably only Irish people go to.

that's a whole lot different than an Irish themed pub.

It's just a black themed browser.

This is a black themed browser. His point about an Irish themed pub is perfect and you still think that pub must be designed for only Irish to go to.

if you look around there's enough things that could prove my point, ofcourse there is no real world whitebird, that's hypothetical. Point is, other communities get upset rather quickly if white people promote themselves.

I.E. a few months ago there was an article in the news that a brit couldn't put the english flag in the back of his car (who would do that anyway,) because it would be offensive to some people, who says the same wouldn't count for whitebird, why would anyone - while it's  clearly marketed as for white people - not find that offensive?

I am sure it will be called racist, if you can't agree go make your own whitebird and test it, you'll prove me right.

How about an Irish pub for the Irish community that is welcome for all to come and have a drink in?

(If it's what I'm thinking of, then it wasn't a case of it potentially causing offence (and to whom exactly would it cause offence?) it was a case that he lived in the EU and wanted the English cross of St. George on his number plate. And that is not allowed, under EU motoring law - it has to be the Union Jack)

lol they shouldn't be allowed to have a black browser - not because it is racist, but because it isn't racist?

If it was racist that would be fine with you because you wouldn't have a so called "double standard" which is hard to believe cause there is no double standard, because there is no double for this browser. There is no white browser.

It obvious you want us to see this browser as racist - when clearly it is anything but.
