Once upon a time, racists used to tell blacks that they should not take racist talk too seriously

And the typical reaction of a Jew-basher to a Jew protesting against Jew-bashing is "Don't lay that PC crap on me" or "you lack a sense of humour".

I just had this same unpleasant experience; not, of course, for the first time, but - and this is what is horrible - at the hands of a supposed friend. I took a screencap, just in case. privatemaladict seems to think that jokes about Catholics being prevented from breeding or hate talk about the Church amounts to protected speech, and that I should not have pointed out that such talk is bigoted and intolerant. Then she locked the post against me: the usual reaction of people who have no arguments.

This has been a long friendship as Internet friendships go, and I wish it did not have to end like this. But I will take that kind of shit from nobody. I do not accept it about Jews, I do not accept about blacks or Chinese, I do not even accept about Muslims (although I do not like Islam), AND I DO NOT SEE WHY ON EARTH I SHOULD BE EXPECTED TO TOLERATE IT WHEN IT IS AIMED AT ME.

Nor do I appreciate this extrmely belated discovery of my supposed "rudeness" (with not a single example to support it) which only came up when it was a matter of defending the bigotry of your damned friends. If really had an issue with my behaviour at any time, you should have brought it up then and not when I was protesting about the behaviour of others. I always tried to be supportive and helpful, barring that I would not say white was black only to please you. This all seems just an excuse to get on a contemptible ideological train.
