I don't get the crowd that sayd the sheeeiiit button is distasteful.
This is a meme because the actor that played Clay Davis in The Wire killed it and was awesome. We love the way he said it. I hear it every time I see the button lol.
It boggles the mind how something so extremely positive as the appreciation of black artists is twisted in the mind of holier-than-thou posters that have racism for lenses. You have to want to see it negatively to be outraged. This is basically a nigger-appreciator button (not to say nigger-lover even). Yes, we appreciate even the stereotype.
If you love your fellow nig, why don't you love your fellow nig button, guys? Or are you racists? Now that would be distasteful.
Cheers!
Clay Davis has nothing in common with the jigaboo depicted by that button, except for the phrase and pigmentation. In fact he's an antithesis of a "nigger". This kind of distinction is rarely seen by the racists.
