馃 I wonder when racism actually began
and could it be consider it speciest ?

@iQuit when the white man appeared

@iQuit in ancient times people stayed away from each other like the plague in different tribes.
iQuitF
@popmol I get that but before man... species probably did the same and they probably do now. The only real difference is we are verbal and it's more apparent since we have no idea what other animals say to each other
popmol22-25, M
@iQuit no no i mean humans, they did that. and people are stupid not to be racist. i mean when the Spaniards went to mexico. and south America they got defeat by both war of course but even worse is sickness they couldn't handle our sickness if they were a little racist and kick the bastards out they wouldn't all have died probably.

@popmol this article is a bit interesting it diverts racism towards a different path of origin and show examples through history.

@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.

@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

@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.
