RE: Racism

in #racism6 years ago (edited)

Not to be a grammar nazi but this is one of my biggest pet peeves. According Webster, not Google, which is ridiculous with definitions, I think you mean "prejudice" or pre-judging someone based on their background. Racist means you think your race is superior to others in some way like you said but juding someone on race is prejudice. I don't think anyone really believes their race is "the best" rather they pre-judge them like saying "all Asian people are successful". Asians may be the wealthiest race in America with the high education levels but it doesn't mean they are ALL that way just like not ALL whites like mayonnaise.

Conservatives and Libertarians, like me, didn't care what race Obama was - he was actually half white but none of that matters to us. We just prefer small central government and low taxes. Criticizing him, we were labeled as racist when you could have had a turd sandwich telling me they're going to take more money from my pay check and I still would have criticized him. Everything is not about race and just because you find one prejudice conservative, doesn't mean all conservatives are prejudice-that's a fallacy. I actually find your rhetoric a bit prejudice implicating all white presidents were prejudice and Obama had to "undo" it and it's time for black to live free? Pretty sure blacks were living free before Obama took office in 2009. That's the great part about freedom though-you can believe what you want.

I agree with you on Steemit though, there aren't many fools on here.
