I added the handful of racist jokes to gain more search engine traffic to the jokes website (was getting about 1,000 visitors a day before the new racist jokes) and it's worked, some days the site receives over 8,000 visitors and a heck of a lot of them are looking for racist jokes!
I left comments open on the jokes page (all jokes on the site have the same setup) and the pages have been inundated with hundreds of racist comments, (one page Black Jokes One Liners has over 600 comments) not just racist jokes, but true racism: white power this, black power that, KKK stuff, I hate niggers etc... which is distasteful!
If it wasn't for the traffic I'd delete the racist jokes pages, but I'm in the business of making money and traffic = more money.
Also I personally don't see racism as most do, I see it as another form of discrimination, I don't see much difference between been mean to someone for having red hair, being over weight , having big ears, big nose, small/big breast etc... to being mean to someone for having a different colour of skin. They are all forms of discrimination based on not very important differences and it all sucks, but that's the nature of being human, we tend to dislike those who are different to us!
The site also has redneck jokes, yo mamma so fat jokes, dumb blonde jokes etc... which are also forms of discrimination, so although those joke pages tend not to generate hateful comments, it could be argued if I deleted the racist jokes I should also delete the jokes listed above. Like I said above I own the site to make money, so that's not going to happen.
Which is why I've created this Racism Forum for discussion of race and racism issues, hopefully in a mature way.
Within a few days of posting this I'll have linked from all the racist jokes to this racism forum in the hope of those who would like to discuss racism today will join the forum and participate.
