You believe racism to be an aspect of human nature, and I assume you are human. Therefore, you are admitting to being a racist.

All I did in this thread was point out Jaskalas' inanity. He was concerned that white men are being looked at negatively by the world. I sarcastically alluded to the privilege that is inherent to being a white man, and the relative power you have on the world. I fail to see the racism in that.

This bolded comment pretty much describes every post you ever make on race issues in this forum.


Be honest. You harbor resentment towards white people. No matter how hard a white person struggles, no matter how poor they grew up and the challenges they face, to you they will always be a trust-fund silver-spoon suburbanite.

Was it your parents that instilled this belief in you? I find that parents have a profound affect on if you turn out racist or not.

With these kind of beliefs, I think we all have to take you as seriously as a white supremesist on all matters of race. You are so blinded by your feelings of discrimination and racism, that you have made yourself 10X more racist than those you despise.


And no, I dont think you can throw money at people and make them not racist/prejudice. It takes education and assimilation to cure xenophobia. Even with unlimited resources, this could not be done.

Research white privilege. This is something that I invented, it's the reality of the world. That you deny it only proves it's existence. Calling out white privilege is not racism, nor is describing male privilege sexism, heterosexual privilege heterophobia, or class privilege classism.

I exist with male privilege, class privilege, able-bodied privilege, just as you exist with white, able-bodied, male, hetero and class privilege. Our lives are easier because of privilege. This is just a fact. I know you're the type of person to think that he hit a triple because you were born on third base, but at some point you need to be honest with yourself, and realize that you are where you are because of what your parents and ancestors did, and what was done to them.

First of all, it's their country they can choose who they let enter, no problem with me. However I find it a bit hypocritical they won't allow him because of his controversial views that the Koran is hate speech, yet at the same time they allow these ridiculous protests in which "DEATH TO ____!!!!" is proclaimed etc.

So when did you wake up and figure that out???

I've seen someone else on this forum say bigotry is wrong, unless it's favors their argument. I suppose it was only a matter of time until someone else said racism was wrong, with the same exception.

Yes, but before we do that we need to toss him into a camp first.

It's retarded. Absolutely bat-sh*t insane, but then This Is England, so it's part and parcel now, isn't it?

I was thinking slave labor.

Why not both?

Don't forget to throw Miss California in that slave labor, non oxygenated, waterboarding camp also.
