Why does Conor McGregor keep calling Nate "Mexican" as if it's some kind of insult?

[RabbitPunches]

For the love of God 202 cannot get here fast enough. I can't wait for Nate to choke him back in to silence.

I'm sure your life has been full of suffering, simply because you're caucasian. I feel so horribly for you. What, do people follow you around stores? Do police pull you over for the smallest things, and assume you're guilty of something? Have you often been treated like shit at businesses, including restaurants, because they assume you're poor or trashy, all just because of your skin color?
Shut the entire fuck up. No black man has ever stolen your job because of Affirmative Action, you've never actually seen a black person with a fur coat and a Cadillac using food stamps to buy steak for their dog, and you've never been denied financial aid at a college because you were "the wrong color". Just shut the absolute fuck up.

You seem upset. I'm only half white by the way. And yeh I was harassed by police my entire youth.

It's crazy how I don't know a damn thing about being black, but you seem to know everything about being white.

It seems like the people that think this is racist aren't actually Mexican or Latino...

It's all part of the agenda. Is normal. I got called that a lot outside NM even though my family is from here, when the Spaniards and Portuguese "mated" with the Indians, Apache in my case. It's why a lot of us don't speak Spanish, they squashed that language during my grandparents generation. It's why you have shit like the Swine Flu which was "told" to us by the media was from Mexico.

Because Conor is racist. Didn't he call Cormier "boy" once or something like that?


The rest of the world isn't like America. Most countries are 90%+++ one type of people, and most of the time, they all have prejudices towards... basically anyone else. It's human nature. Not saying it's good or right, but it is what it is. People even do this stuff with Mac vs. PC, or PS vs Xbox. People just like drawing battle lines, "my side" vs "your side."

In the US, so many different races and religions have to live side by side so we've moved more and more towards civility and understanding. The rest of the world isn't there yet.

Yeh but he's white so it's ok.

He is actually irish tho.

Don't make me fucking laugh—you're trolling right? America is obsessed with race. BLM and all that nonsense going on at the moment.

You sound like someone who has never lived elsewhere nor even visited other countries.

 

[Lanx]

Look you idiots, Conor is obviously using it in a low brow tone and "trying" to be subtle about it, but he's a retard so it's not fooling ppl with IQ's higher than 3.

You retards are like "BUT DIAZ IS MEXICAN, SO IT'S OK"

Well guess what, Diaz is also a man, you don't see Conor just trying to point that out do you? yea now it sounds stupid, why would Conor point out he's a man?

Why would Conor point out he's Mexican? Cuz he's trying to segregate Diaz from the white ppl. Conor wants the whiteys to be with him, so he's gotta tell the whitey's "HEY! he's not white, cheer for whats right!!!"

 

[Mr Wings]

You associate miget and lepercaun with white??

Of course! Have you ever seen a tall, Mexican leprechaun?

 

[Hans Gercmiov]

I'm half Mexican. My mom is Mexican. My grandmother is Mexican. I have family in Mexico. My sister is married to a Mexican national. I'm just not a whiny ass millennial.

 

[skolar182]

bc he's just playing the heel. Trying to get in Nate's head and make that $$$ the fact that we are talking about this is proof that it is working

Conor could fart and people would talk about it here. For every minute Conor spends fighting he spends 10 hours talking.

Probably called Cormier that. He did call him a ghetto hillbilly.

In b4 Dana gives Diaz a mexican flag and reebok shirt

You know, I find the term 'dumb Yank' unfair. But that's unbelievable if you think the highlighted part is true.

 

[Soul On Ice]

Why does the UFC continue to market Cain as "Mexican"...Are they racist?

 

[Th3PlainTruth**]

Look, we have a Kenyan president. Racism doesn't exist anymore.

Tell that to the 5 dead cops in Dallas.

Because it is an insult.

Exactly.

Conor got death threats over that shit last time. He might want to be careful. ESPECIALLY considering whats going on nowadays.

For the love of God 202 cannot get here fast enough. I can't wait for Nate to choke him back in to silence.

Man you and me both!

 

[Th3PlainTruth**]

It was because he was the first Mexican UFC champion.

Nice try tho.

That's definitely what I was thinking of. So I misremembered slightly but... yeah.


I think that shows the kind of "racism" I'm talking about, though. When you come from a country with very few black people, a country that historically is pretty damn intolerant, it's easy for me to see how he literally just doesn't know how to act around other races. He's not trying to be mean, and he's not doing it out of some racial superiority complex, he's just doing it out of... I guess "ignorance" is the right word.

But when it comes to racism, I always considered ignorance much less deplorable than true malice.

A LOT of people are too stupid to realize that what you're saying is SUPER valid.

Kudos to you for spelling it out in a cogent manner.
