13 Jan 18 - 06:08 AM (#3899272) Subject: Magnificent Jackson Browne recording! From: Bonzo3legs A magnificent IEM recording has surfaced of Jackson Browne playing to Japanese on 23/10/17 in Osaka. This has been recorded from the audience from the wireless feeds to in ear monitors, and therefore CD quality!!! |

13 Jan 18 - 06:50 AM (#3899286) Subject: RE: Magnificent Jackson Browne recording! From: GUEST I haven't seen Japanese referred to as "Japs" in over 40 years. I thought "Japs" had gone the same way as "nigs" and "pakis". Apparently not. Fixed. Racial slurs for the sake of racial slurs are not necessary. ---mudelf |

From: Jackaroodave Geeze, Bonzo, when I was a kid we used to play a ball game called, for no particular reason, "n****r baby." "When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put aside childish things." |

13 Jan 18 - 03:52 PM (#3899391) Subject: RE: Magnificent Jackson Browne recording! From: GUEST,Pauperback Bonzo3legs, my mother told me Jap was a dirty word back in the 40s. It must have been particularly uncomfortable for her since she was teased for having Jap eyes. |

13 Jan 18 - 05:49 PM (#3899416) Subject: RE: Magnificent Jackson Browne recording! From: Jackaroodave I'm troubled by "Jap" because of the general disrespect and pain such expressions cause--not because my late wife was Japanese. She was a person of such generosity, integrity, and kindness that a puerile racial slur can't touch her. |

From: GUEST,paperback Some swivel-eyed loon has claimed that in the future's endless loop Techocracy, you must learn, unlearn, relearn, then repeat. OTOH Jackson Browne said: You can take as much as you can from the generation that has preceded you, but then it's up to you to make something new. |

14 Jan 18 - 04:28 AM (#3899494) Subject: RE: Magnificent Jackson Browne recording! From: Jackaroodave Now it's coming out. The atrocities perpetrated by Japanese soldiers on Allied POWs and civilian populations, as in the rape of Nanking, are beyond the pale. And the refusal of hyper-nationalists to acknowledge them makes them that much worse. However, when the US bombed my wife's village, the farming families they killed didn't do any of that and didn't even have a say in it. They were as innocent as my own parents or yours. So were the 97,000 killed and 125,000 wounded in the firebombing of Tokyo, the 90,000 and 39,000 (low-end estimates) killed in the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki respectively. Labelling and equating these innocent civilians with military butchers all as "Japs" show EXACTLY what is wrong with racial epithets. |

14 Jan 18 - 05:16 AM (#3899506) Subject: RE: Magnificent Jackson Browne recording! From: Bonzo3legs Well I am more than sorry for your wife's villagers, but there seems to be a lot of fuss here about a mere abbreviation. Nobody complains when Scottish people ate referred as Scots, the French as Frogs etc. |

14 Jan 18 - 05:31 AM (#3899510) Subject: RE: Magnificent Jackson Browne recording! From: Jackaroodave Never mind that there's hardly anyone living in Japan who was an adult during WWII, and that Japan has a constitution renouncing war (which is sometimes actually adhered to). "After the appalling acts carried out by the Japs during WW2, they will always be Japs to most normal people. Put up or shut up." Can anyone here say,"Kosovo"? |
