Racism

wishicould · 12-09-2011, 02:57 PM

In my honest opinion, there isn't anything wrong with racism.

Now let me explain. People should have the right to believe WHATEVER they want. Just be true to who YOU are.

What bothers me, is people who grow watermelon sized balls on anonymous forums, x box live, or anywhere else they can't realize consequence for what they've said. If you wouldn't say it to the persons face, then don't hide behind the web and spew a racist agenda just because you can get away with it. PATHETIC.....JS

Whoever it is I kinda agree with the 3rd paragraph.

People already have the right to believe what they choose. They don't necessarily have the right to act on those beliefs.

racism in thought and racism in action are two different forces.

whites only drinking fountains, for example, is true racism. not OK.

locking your car door because there is a black man on the sidewalk is just you being a racist pussy. that's OK.

real racism isn't cool, like leaving crosses in people's yards, scalping people, small pox x-mas blankets, and lynching gays, that shit leaves a lasting negitive impact and shit...

trolling people by saying a bunch of outlandish shit, and them being game by spitting back a bunch of outlandish shit...Pretty decent...

Hate is bummer time...

I don't like when minorities tell me that I can't understand racism because I'm white. I go: "No, you can't understand racism 'cause you're not white; I hear the shit they say about you when you leave the room! They don't hold back on my account."

The difference in the understanding part bro is whether it has directly happened to you or not, not what race or color you are. It can happen to anyone! Has it actually happened to a close friend of yours, one of your peers or family members? Can you truely understand anything you have not experienced personally and be able to honestly say how you would have reacted/felt? Or do you just have an idea of what it is?

This, however, I can agree with this in most cases. If you feel strongly enough to go after random ppl online, have some self-respect and put a face and name to the words

No racism isn't OK. It's not OK to be an ignorant fucktard.

I truly understand, I spent many years in the hood 'regulatin' peoples shit' for the 'man' down at the bank. I been called everything from honky to 'blue eyed devil', which by the way is my favorite as it at least shows a little flair, I used to collect slurs like notches on a gun stock. Racism is the last act of desperate, tiny man who has exhausted his patience and has no leg to stand on. It's his last ditch grab before hitting the proverbial floor. I didn't go looking for those folks because they were another color, they brought me upon themselves and just don't want to admit it.

"You all just doin' me like this because I'm black, if I were a white girl in Irvine you wouldn't be doin' this."

Fuck yeah I would, only difference is I'd be enjoying it more.

I've worked very hard to snuff out any sort of racism in my thoughts, actions, and vocabulary.

For example, when speaking to another person, instead of saying something base like, "nigga what?" I say, "Pardon, nigger?" as a far more respectful way of asking for someone to repeat themselves.

Also, instead of referring to someone who's excessively cheap, instead of simply calling them a "jew" like a lazy racist, I say, "My goodness, your money retention is reminiscent of a Jewish person. Adolf Hitler would likely be justifiably aggravated to see you alive."

Or in the case of a brown coloured person, instead of calling them a "sand nigger" like your average White pig would probably do, I refer to them, whilst maintaining eye contact (very important part of showing respect), as a "sub species of nigger whose genetic roots flourished in an arid environment."

You'd be surprised at how a little eloquence and a thoughtful approach to a lesser human can improve your relationships.

the ammount of seemingly disagreeing people i've thanked in this thread makes me realize how little i understand about race relations.

don't bother me though. am i a racist? the fuck do i care? i treat people like people as best i can and if someone else wants to say i'm not doing it right, well i don't have the energy to argue it. hate filled bigot, progressive white-guilt paranoia, i dont have time for it. just keep on keeping on, do what's right, and like the op sad...if you got a problem say it face to face like a man
