Racism is racist.

This is gonna be a controversial one.

Well it's a Level Playing Field because everybody is racist to some degree usually the ones that are accusing are the most racist

@NickiHijab Welp, here comes the controversy, because I disagree.

If a person disagrees with you does that make them a racist or are you a racist for disagreeing with the other person
33person · 26-30, M
@nedkelly It makes their sister racist, actually.
I'm going to be controversial by not being controversial. I totally agree.

@Serenitree Sometimes I even play classical music in the background while I say these things. It helps people remember how smart I am.
Serenitree · F
@33person Well, I for one, am genuinely impressed.

It really depends on your definition of racism and racist
33person · 26-30, M
@MarineBob That's ageist
fazer1k · 56-60, M
The dictionary agrees with you. A racist is one who engages in racism.

popmol · 22-25, M
racism isn't racism anymore xD
popmol · 22-25, M
@33person in today's society just noticing a person is black or asian is racist so if everything is racist nothing is.
33person · 26-30, M
@popmol The truth is, no, it's not racist to notice someone is black or Asian. What would be racist is if you had to ignore that they are black or Asian in order to relate to them. That would be like having to ignore someone is 5 foot 7 to relate to them. Idc what society says, but it's mentally unhealthy to ignore someone's race. You should be mature enough to acknowledge someone's color without thinking their color is a problem or a deformity.

However, bringing up someone's race can be weird sometimes, if it is truly extraneous information. For example, suppose I tell you the following story: "I went to the store today, and I bought toothpaste, dental floss, and a bottle of mouthwash. I then went to the cash register and a black cashier rang up my stuff. Then I left the store and put the stuff in my car and drove off. When I got outside, I noticed a scratch on my car because someone left a cart right by my car and it rolled down the hill and hit my car."

So, why did I tell you the cashier was black? It's weird. I mean, it would be just as weird to mention he was 5 foot 7 or that he wore glasses. It's not a focused story. I wouldn't call it racist, but I would say it's weird for me to get off the point of the story to spend time describing the physical appearance of the cashier. However, if the point of the story is to describe his physical appearance or to describe a way he may have been treated differently because of his race, then I should mention that he is black.
popmol · 22-25, M
@33person haha did i ever say i think less of black or other races? i don't.

well i don't know what you mean with that story. i only bring it up if i'm describing someone's look. or if i make a joke and the punchline is only funny if you know they are black for example.

thats not the point. i'm getting pissed off of people who tell me whatever i do is racist for no reason. and people are saying everything is racist now so nothing is. simple.
iQuit · F
🤔 I wonder when racism actually began
and could it be consider it speciest ?
popmol · 22-25, M
@iQuit well these mostly show the ones coming from europe but aztecs, different indaind tribes , different African tribes and all kinds of asians murdered each other for being different. and they were from the same skin. with slight differences.
also i don't know if i agree with the definition they state here in this thing. the domination if they mean one dominates the other like America before black rights thats fine but if they mean a majority of the country is white and the smaller ones i black or something i definitely do not agree.
but how i see it never found racism or xenophobia a too bad thing. everything exists for a reason. its in everyone right to not like a black man for he is black or a white man because he is white. i don't care as long as you don't punch each other in the face.
iQuit · F
@popmol but the aztecs did not kill each other because of racism
they killed each other for religious belief mostly

as a form a sacrifice to their gods. Many tribes here in the Americas had their own faith before the conquest of the lands by foreigners.

sadly racism isn't the only form of discrimination and people always find a reason to judge things. the thought process of each generation evolves but some stigma remains and the truth behind this word digs deeper with some people who have been affected by it down to their roots.

or it can also be that we find reasons for why everything exists
after all mankind as it evolves in time it has time to evolve in thought and find meanings to many aspects that surround it's entity.

People no matter what their shade have been witness to prejudice and by now most are aware of their actions and whether or not to instill negative sentiments about others based solely by racial divide.

Violence begets violence and as long as hate persist then further generations will attest to their own accounts of division amongst one another
popmol · 22-25, M
@iQuit same did we xD until we send people to convert them then there was less killing.

yeah and they killed each other a lot. and i don't think indians killed each other for another belief.

so blacks will feel extra bad? because once other black people were slave sore people were racist against them? i mean can i then punch any other european? i'm from belgium we were taken over by england france italy germany the netherlands.
and can i then be racist to any arabic or islamophobic because europe was attacked by the muslims resulting in the holy wars?

easy. theres no meaning to life.

thats my point, everyone says its always white people but everyone in the world kill each other no matter what reason. so fuck off with europe does everythign bad. and if they do that that means north america is all racist and and south too because they come from Spaniards which are the worst of europe. canada too. certainly africans killing each other in masses. and Asians killing each other in masses.
Racism is dumb. and people think to much about it. 99% of racism today is nationalism or people saying ooh there once was racism between our colours meaning now theres a problem. around 200 there was no racism at all and 10 year later everyone is shouting theres mass racism everywhere. any asian can hate me and any black guy can hate me for being white. i don't care. in our society if they have a job and its something that sells or he is a public speaker they will be fired. or they'll lose money easy as that.

thats not true. i know racist rich people i've convinced their children easy that racism is stupid. and theres 2 people already who aren't as racist or not a racist at all anymore. i don't care where a person comes from although whats in their head that does make me hate them.

as long as you don't stand in my way i'll not be sexist or racist. stand in my way and i'll hate you for whatever reason i want. if its a difference in skin er different sex. i don't care. people care to much. if i call a black guy black theres people who are angry who aren't even black they are angry for blacks. when they say blacks need more now because they used to have less even though they are equal mean you'r saying they are stupid and can't make it. in our society studying being nice and staying in a suit helps you get further in life no drugs being in the hood and acting all tough.

let racist be racist they will never change. all you can do is tolerate them and get them in jail if they do something illegal.
