Racism...

[ltk007]

... disgusts me. I saw a thing on TV about this man who was tourtured because he was black and I wonder how some people can be so ignorant. They just make me sick.

Just be a racist to the racists! Discriminate the discrimnaters! Go into the chatroom kkk as MLKing and get some laughs at their pansy ass whines! Those who discriminate people are scared of these people. Go give them a frickin' heart attack!

Racism is hate, hate is something that children are taught by ignorant parents who are usually ill educated, and blame someone from another race for their problems rather than face the fact that they are their own worst enemy. Once again, ill educated slackjawed, inbreeds have proved that stupid people should not be allowed to breed.

paradox is discriminating against evil

Has anyone else noticed how lots of people in online games seem to call everyone else ni****s? It disgusts me beyond belief.

I only hope they don't talk that way in real life.:|

Yeah - I've seen that in Starcraft when I watched my friends play. Pretty crude stuff. People used that racist term all the time.

The only way you can get any respect in online games is to pretend to be a girl... and sometimes that doesn't help

I've never played games online...Thanks for the heads up, DataFly. Now I know there's never any reason to do so. Sh8theads...

Racism sucks. I'm not racist, thankfully. And yes I've seen many people online using racist terms, and it's disgusting. Usually I just leave those channels/games.

People have different definitions of what constitutes racism. Sometimes, they even include purely esthetic appreciation (or lack thereof) into the equation. On a few occasions on this BBS, I have been called racist simply because I said that I find straight hair and a thin nose more appealing in a woman (regardless of colour), without any judgement on her value as a human being.

It's like saying that people who find blondes less attractive are racists against Caucasians.

Bollocks!

<< I've never met anyone that isn't a little racist >>


A more true phrase has never been uttered!

First, one needs to define the word. Today, this means never even questioning someone of another race. Do not dare question their actions or motives. Their idea of equality is favoritism.

TV is there for one purpose. Entertainment! If they can make a situation worse, they generally do. It's all about advertisement dollars.

Much has been made of the dreadful crimes of white on black. There are just as many of them that go the other way. All are terrible!

I've been called a Racists on this forum. It doesn't bother me in the least. My definition is different and I can never be swayed to believe otherwise. I've always judged individuals, and never by color, etc...but I do judge!

Tom, I have to disagree with you here on a technicality.

I've always defined racism as belief in one's superiority or another's inferiority due to race or ethnicity.

I am not racist; I do not believe that my skin color and ethnic background make me superior, nor do I look down on anyone else for the same reason. I will admit to some very strong prejudices, though, which I won't get into here. Everyday experiences here have conditioned me to judge certain people in some situations based on outward appearance immediately, and only after getting to know the person can I discard that original judgement.

Everyone has prejudices; that's an unfortunate part of human nature. Only a select few of us are racist (KKK, Aryan Nation, Black Panthers, HardTech, etc.).

That is as good a definition as exists.

Saddly, that isn't where the definition stops in today's world.

I do not consider myself Racists. However, I think it is natural for any species to group together based on things they have in common. Skin color is jusy one of those many differences.

If everyone would just treat their fellow man as they would wish to be treated, the problem would be solved! It shouldn't need to be any more complicated than that.
