RE: We Are All Racists

in #racism8 years ago (edited)

I just thought about the 5 people I hang out with the most. I am a 5th generation Canadian (England, Ireland, Scotland), Caucasian male. I hang out with:

  1. A third generation Canadian (Irish ) Caucasian female
  2. A first generation Canadian (Sri Lanka) Brown male.
  3. A second generation Canadian (Vietnam) Asian male.
  4. A third generation Canadian (Jamaica) Black male.
  5. A Sixth Generation Canadian (England) Caucasian male.

I wouldn't say that I am racist, but I definitely agree that I have many prejudices .

Sort:  

i think this is irrelevant to the point i am making in the article

Oops, I apologize. Take it as a compliment. Your post got me thinking and I didn't finish my train of thought.

I wouldn't say that I am racist, but I definitely agree that I have many prejudices .

It should instead include people you communicate with online. People hang out offline with whomever happens to be around and most neighborhoods are segregated. It doesn't make someone racist to be in some neighborhood which is segregated.

On the other hand if you have access to all kinds of people and have the choice then if you actively choose to avoid certain races of people that would be evidence of a problem. Do you avoid certain people because they have the wrong race?

You both didn't read the article. I specifically speak about how the conventional meaning of "Race" is not the issue.

dana. for fucks sake. stand up to the level of your rep.

I've quoted parts of your article. It's possible that I just don't agree with you. People with high reps can disagree.

Nop, i specifically even stated the dictionary definition of racism from the second paragraph. You are just trying to go around it to shill your point.

Reputation in here means nothing. Well, it actually means that you are liked from a few people who know how to mine cryptos. nothing else
