Racism

[Nightwolf]

Thing with racism is, you have to becarful what you say. Sometimes I get really pissed off with people and I have a short temper normally, so if someone pisses me off, I tend to yell abuse at them. But if there black, half the time people think your racist, but if a black person calls a white person, usally its just verbal abuse, not racist. It really gets me worked up, but there isn't many black people in my school, mainly Asian.

Short tempered LOL.
Anyways, see the thing is that black people have been offended more than white due to their body colour, so they appeal more, so the credit and all goes to them.Thats why they can sue us and we cant...
sometimes.


I'm called Joker ;-;

I was called racist today because I said that I won't marry a black woman, because I want white babies. It is called a preference. I prefer vanilla ice cream to chocolate, but that doesn't mean I'm racist against chocolate.

[Arrow]

I'm called vanilla face, cracker, and honky a lot.  .  It doesn't offend me, because, you know, they went through decades of slavery and abuse... I just ate cornflakes 

Hate that logic. I hate being called racist. I know the perfect comeback, and it would make perfect sense, but then i'd just get a bunch of flack, and be called even MORE of a racist. The come back is:

"Is there a whip in my hand?"
"Is there a chain around your neck?"
"Then bite me, dumbass."

[shadowdude]

i dont get what all the fuss is about, i dont find being called a "cracker, honkey." OR whatever other word you can think off, i dont care if my black friends call me a cracker, heck i have walked down the street and answered to being called a cracker (by my friends) by shoutin back "Yo friendly black fellow" They dont find it offensive therefor neither do it. Nigger and paki along with all the other words are just that, WORDS. If you get SERIOUSLY offended by a word then you really wouldnt be able to take a joke. I find "yo momma" jokes to be more offensive than being called a cracker.

I hate racism...end of story...

Well I'll tell one of many stories...

It was about 12am, right after the New Years fireworks. Me and my sister are walking in front of our parents as we head to our car. We saw two chicks in the distance, they seemed like normal bitch-slapping-blond-asshole-hobos-lifeless-high school-drama seekers to us. When we got close, the blondest of the two came up to my sister and went "I HATE CHINESE PEOPLE!" and the slapped her. She ran off in the distance as her only friend in the world who she was gay with followed trying to rape her. My parents didn't see her slap my sister and only realized it when I said bitch-slapping-blond-asshole-hobos-lifeless-high school-drama seeker slapped my sister.

DO NOT READ UNLESS YOU HAVE HAD SEXUAL EDUCATION!
[spoiler]Note: Some bits have been changed for entertainment purposes including bits below. The time and slapping bit were true though. And the fact they were gay with each other seemed obvious to me. I mean, why would they be carrying condoms which were filled with sperm in their mouth because the two of them got donated penises attached to where their previous penis was because they were fucking each other so hard when they were 10 it fell off and so they found 2 hobos who were willing to give their penises to them for $10 both including surgery costs.

I hate Racism. My freind is from Chile, and Im glad no one calls him bad things.

But there are racism on my school. Youngters from a local school decided to be racist, just because they thought it was cool. That dosen't make any sence to me. I don't see it as cool.

[Winged]

Yea, the kids at my school thought it was "cool" to be racist. One of my friends made me look at the positive side...I think it had something to do with fighting or something.

~Winged

[The Shadow]

The funniest thing is that the school they went to has a very bad rumor. Fights, harasings, The croos on the walls, and so on.

There was a kid who wrote the cross on his arm, just because he thought it was cool. Dumb.

[Winged]

Thats just low =/

Whoever the hell made racism 'cool' better stay out of my way I'll punch them in their dork like face!

Here's a funny story. I was with my friend and her father at a party held at the VFW. The VFW has 2 halls. One was for her family reunion... the other was rented out by a wedding party.

My friend, her father and I were getting ready to go home. In the dumpster there was rattling, then a raccoon popped out like right next to her father's head! He said something like d*mn raccoons!

Then the entire wedding party from the second hall filed out... The entire wedding party was black! With her father having a southern accent saying raccoons they weren't fond of that!

~Winged

I've recently noticed a small amount of racism in some of my fav animes but I won't list them..

Racism is alot like an orange, you have the hard mean and cruel outside and the sweet and non offensive inside, and no i didn't fail. Im just not learned

[sinu siku]

Somewhere in Alabama.

[biohazard]

Everywhere in Alabama.

Fixed.

[gonorrhea]

I meant their headquarters, but yeah.

[BackSeatBandit]

It's very bad, Nightwolf, very bad.

According to statistics, racism is actually good. And statistics are never wrong. Statistics prove that statistics are right.

Racism is built up from fear or hatred through one's own selfishness. I don't tolerate it at all. To me, being a racist makes you a weaker person. The hard part is some people are taught to be racist by their parents of others they hang around with. It's like a bad habit that is extremely hard to do away with.

[Ravenshade]

Racism is a part of life. Everywhere I look a can see racism in one form of another, and I also know many instances where Racism is none existant.

A black person is black right?
A white person is white right?

Neither are correct, I....I am aryan if that is the correct spelling. I am supposed to be the epitome of what a human is. I should be the type of person that people are racist against. Yet I am not. I am accepted.

Women, culturally have always been second class to men, go out and look for things that are female based. Shopping, babies. While the men are free to do as they please. However, if doesn't look well if men go clothe shopping, especially if they wear pink. Isn't that racism.

Racism is discrimination against another race. So obviously racism is going to occur.

When you are shoved into a room full of people of different races, none that are you own, how do you feel. Alone, afraid, nervous. Regardless of who you are, if you are shoved into something you don't like, you'll do one of three things. Fight, Flight, Withdraw. Fight with supposedly "vulgar" terms. Paki was originally shortened from Pakistani because it was easier. Not because it was racist or supposed to be used as a vulgar term.

If I called someone a sausage because that's what I thought their head resembled...technically that is descrimination.

White has already been associated with nobility. This much is although genetic, when applied with logic holds true.

When we go out into the sun, white becomes brown, and over time darker and darker. Those who die from heatstroke because they are not brown enough die off along with their genes, while darker and darker skinned people are born to cope with the heat and surrounding environment.

White, in this sense, comes from people who take the lead, for instance the salvery trade, although this is a crude example of the White scum taking the lead...literally.

Which means Black has been associated with being a worker, throughout history this was true.

However, we see fairer and fairer people the more we move away from the equater, England, Russia, the Eskimo's are all white, because heat rarely affects the skin up there, and therefore we become White, and the Black die out because they cannot survive as easily due to the fact that eventually...the black fades, and is replaced with white. (usually over generations)

It isn't just our personal prejudice is what I am saying, it has happened for millenia this huge gulf, white is supposed to be cold, while black is supposed to be warm.

Yet in today's day and age, this isn't so, but socially it is deemed that (mostly deemed) that blacks associate with blacks, whites with whites...and anything else with anything else.

Unfortunately for Eugenics, White isn't the perfect race, the perfect race would be slightly brown, able to adapt whatever the climate.

The only time I don't see racism, is when that race adapts to the culture they are now in, especially in migration. For instance, it drives me to insanity when an asian preaches about their Allah...in fact, I just want to shoot them. Feel free to call me racist. If they adapted to understand the religions of the culture they are now in, they wouldn't be as feared, especially if they dressed the same as the culture, that also helps.

If anyone hasn't noticed, we get socially bred to be racist. We become patriotic to our country, outsiders are treated badly. Having borders, is like having money...a detrimental effect on society.

Fear is the prime reason for Racism, fear of the unknown especially from what they percieve as invaders, or the opposite force. (Tajfel) I know I have rambled, but I hope I have made one or two good points there and maybe a bad one for people to criticize.

This should agree with alot that people have said, but I haven't read most of that, I just decided to put my thoughts down, however, I do agree with BackSeatBandit

It is true, that if we worked together rather than adversarial, (which is more or less what I have been saying) we should get along.

[Esmeralda]

People hate other people in their lands too for speaking a different language. In Finland we have 300,000 persons speaking swedish and 5 million speaking finnish, and the finns hate us so much for "making the country dirty" that you learn to really hate racism. It's the same thing with immigrants, they face racism daily, too. And that's really bad.

"Is there a whip in my hand?"
"Is there a chain around your neck?"
"Then bite me, dumbass."

[okartee]

everyone thinks im a racist now at my school, I accidentally (Yes, Accidentally) said um the "n" word in front of a black girl (I didn't know she was there), so she flipped out, i got suspended and now everyone but my good friends call me racist... and now i feel really bad because I've known her since kindergarden....

[landofshadows]

And there was me thinking Racism was a religion based on running races... Marthon's, Speed walking, cross country...LOL

Joking...

I accidentally (Yes, Accidentally) said um the "n" word in front of a black girl (I didn't know she was there), so she flipped out, i got suspended and now everyone but my good friends call me racist...

Hummm not good... I once done exactly the same thing at school in media studies, but I had good reason, there was a power cut, when I was watching terminator two, I can never prounounce Swatchzanagger It's sounds wozzaNigger... It was dark, with no power... One thing leed to another... so I can see how you Accidentally said the N word...

Joking again... Am I on form or what... Err.... hold on Intelligent Debate... OOOOoooops !!!

On Topic

If a Black person said to another black person "Hey Nigger" it's not Racist (It's a Compliement and a greeting).... For a Black person to get offend by a white person saying it, then I guess they feel inferior to a white person... If they feel that way, who's issue is it ?... I mean fair enough if you said "You Dirty Nigger" then yeah, you deserve to be ousted... But if you said it in a jive slang type way then it's been blown out of proportion.

It's like at work I even say to other white people... "Nigger Please" From a stand up sketch I saw... If some one is say being stupid, trying to beat box or tell a joke and it's rubbish, I use that little jive slang...

In Black Comedy shows like Fresh Prince Will has most of the white Kids using Black / Jive Slang... RESPEC !!!
