Why so Anti-White and Anti-Male?

What movie were you watching? I didn't see it as anti white or anti male. It showed students of all raises and economic backgrounds dealing with the challenges of college, being away from home, in a different environment other than their own, and finding out its a rough world out there. They didn't show Ice Cube's character in a good light either. He was such an beep to his room mate.
I felt bad for Micheal Rapaport's character. He got no love from anyone, black or white. He was an outsider and ended up with skinheads because he wanted to fit in somewhere.
One thing that bothered me was the whole 'black bitch' indecent. It was so over the top with fudge and his boys busting into the frat party like they're at the OK coral. A little heavy handed.
I believe in Steve Austin and his plan to put a casino on the moon -

Because this is political correctness on steroids. This movie LOL funny, because it takes itself so seroiuly. I remember college being a blast, not like a prison. Really one of the worst movies I can remember except for the humor.

I know that race was the focus of this movie but holy beep it seems like every movie on IMDB has a topic by some offended white guy who completely goes off topic and starts talking about beep that nobody cares about.

Anyone who denies this movie is biased against whites is in denial or stupid.
Lets go down the list of characters shall we?- Kristen - sexually confused, inept and stupid (at least when asked anything by Laurence Fishburne's character)
- Remy and the Nazis - pretty self explanatory. Yeah there are racists on the other side too, but all of them could fight, and were cool. The white guys are just a bunch of pansy, complaining bitches. Even the giant juicer who got knocked around by fat albert.
- Taryn - muffdiving lesbo converter, pressing her agenda
- Billy - cowardly racist rapist
- Wayne (the sensitive white guy) - yea he's an ass kisser, and an unsanitary, dirty slob who can't keep his side of the room clean.
- All the cops were racist and stupid
Did I forget any other white characters?

I think you're only looking at this from a one perspective. Although I don't consider this movie nearly as good as Boyz N The Hood, I still enjoy watching it and I don't only see the whites in the movie as bad and here's why.
Omar Epps character was incredibly self loathing and self pitying. For most of the movie if not the entire movie, he walks around with a huge chip on his shoulder. He's the type of guy that pulls the race card any time someone goes against him (hence the relationship between him and the professor when the professor gives him a bad grade). Most of the movie he walks around with so much anger instead of dealing with life with a calm head.
Ice Cube's character was a more annoying version of him. He reminded me of the type of douchebag who felt he was wiser than everyone else without really knowing what he was talking about. And honestly, him and Busta Rhymes' character were a bunch of douche rockets.
I also think it's unfair to put Kirsten and Taryn on your list. If anything Kirsten is one of the most sympathetic characters. And why is being sexually confused considered a bad thing to you? I feel like that's something most young people go through and there's nothing wrong with that. And I didn't see her as stupid but maybe extremely introverted but that's just me.
And as far as Taryn, she's the reason Kirsten comes to terms with her rape. Also you can't convert a person to be gay. -

this was a horrible movie, pretty much racist against white people with a black guy at the helm what can you expect? black people hate white people. they hate the fact that we have jobs and take care of our famlies. they hate our stability. they hate the fact that we aren't a bunch of ghetto dwellers selling crack on every street corner. we white people don't have to nazi nutjobs, we just go to our jobs or school and do what we need to and support our families. we do what we are supposed to do without the goverment giving us a free handout. black people on a larger percentage get welfare and food stamps as a group. black people are lazy. they want it given to them instead of earning it. it is sad but true. this movie is racist against white peole and pretty much a hate crime.

Lol. I'm black and I co-own my own business, I know how to speak properly, never have used government assistance, I've never lived in the hood (hell I grew up in Seattle), I've never touched crack or any hard drugs, and I am far from lazy (well except after a hard day of working).
You shouldn't shout racism if you yourself are a racist. -

@Albert
Oh, shut your whiny racist a** the beep up! At least 37% of white people are on welfare, and they live in their own ghettosI don't see you bitching about them getting some handouts or whateverstop trying to act like white people are so damn perfect or something. Trust me, if black people hate white people, it because they have always hated US firstlook at how we were treated like s*** from the time this country started.
And another thingas a black person I'm tired of hearing that "free handout" bull****! Exactly where the beep are these free handouts you stupid racists always claim black people are getting? You always spout that stupid s***, yet you NEVER provide any damn evidence of that WHATSOEVER. Hell, you must be getting these mythical handouts all for yourselves, 'cause I damn sure have never gotten any! The movie isn't racist against white peopleyou just can't deal with the fact that some white people were depicted in this film as the villains for once. White people aren't always the heroes they're shown to be in Hollywood moviesain't a damn thing racist about showing that. Now get the beep over yourself and get a damn life!
