You guys are some of the most non funny,motherfuckers..lol.
And I notice that this thread about “FUNNY THINGS WHITE PEOPLE DO”…has more personal,negative undertones mostly about NON-WHITE people. Whereas the opposite thread,has less serious tone with comments that are done more in jest about black people. Hmmm…why is that?
Which is why I said in the original thread that they couldn’t show me even one thread created that was done putting white people in a negative light that was NOT done in jest. There have been several threads over the years discussing something negative and attributed this action to the entire race of black people in this country yet there hasn’t been one that I can remember which does the same in the other direction…then they fault us for taking offense to it.
I really don’t think they can even see it.
That’s exactly what I was getting at.
That’s the primary benefit to living in a world that gives privilege to skin color. If you are part of the majority, you basically make the rules. You can choose to not see racism even if you engage in it. You can fault people who take offense to it of being “too sensitive” or “politically correct”…when the truth largely is, some of us get sick of being labeled as an entire race due to actions of a few especially since this NEVER happens in reverse.
No one actually believes whites are lazy even if most of the homeless in my area are white. However, it seems very easy to claim most black people somehow walk slower (for reasons of suing if they get hit because they are all apparently on wellfare) in front of cars than any other race simply because a couple of people claim it is their experience.
We get to experience being labeled as an entire race constantly as if we don’t even have individual thought…then they turn around and fault us for looking for the best interests of “black people” by calling this “reverse racism”…as if they forgot that the need for this exists because blacks get labeled as an entire group for specific negative actions as if we all share the same brain.
The majority gets the privilege of being seen as an individual. The minority gets the privilege of being seen as part of an entire race constantly.[/quote]
Some people don’t want to talk racial taboos because they are afraid of offending people and being considered the bad guy. That is understandable and noble in a sense but also harmful in another.
And it’s understandable that good non-white people (like people on T-Nation) get up on their toes and defensive when non-white people are criticized. Similar to how men as a group can get defensive when feminists go on about evil men (and saying that potentially offends half of humanity at that). Anyway, what feminists and left-wing anti-racists have in common is they all see race as a social construct, and feminists do that with gender (yet at the same time they don’t mind blasting white men). I don’t think anybody here believes that sex extends to genitals only and that men only appear stronger than women because women have been oppressed into being meek and delicate. Maybe that is a factor but there are proven biologically based sex differences. Same is true of race. Race is more than skin colour. An albino/bleached african does not look like the average white at all. Different races differ morphologically, in how they respond to drugs, in their brains etc. A liberal does not condemn research showing men to be more violent than women as sexist, but goes out of his way to show that racial differences in violent behavior are not real, or at least the scapegoat turns out to be white man.
Nobody faults people teaching kids to be somewhat wary of strange men although the scumbags are quite rare, but simply being wary (as opposed to simply condemning each one to hell which is unfair though understandable given the human tendency for classification) of certain ethnicities even if they are far more likely to engage in act of violence or crime than the sleazy white depicted in the PSA poster. Being a good black person must suck to some extent because they have to deal with the suspicions which they don’t deserve. Unfortunately there is not any simple solution that would satisfy all parties.
I understand it’s different for people in the states for example because races have been actively mixing for so many generations so that not interacting with other races on a constant basis is pretty hard and being born into such an enviroment, the average person’s way to cope is probably to just go along with the flow and not try to offend anyone, as it could end up in social ostracization or worse. It may well be the only way their mind can cope with the scene without going nuts, which is helped by the constant propaganda deconditioning (white) people into colour blindness.
In addition, the blacks in America have mixed with whites to a significant extent and so hold a fair amount of white blood by now. The blacks,arabs etc. relatively recently exported to Europe,Commonwealth etc. are undiluted ‘savages’. If that sounds harsh, consider that in being a few percent of the population at best, they commit almost half of the rapes for example. Just how does a government deal with these kinds of observations? They mumble something about intercultural misunderstandings like animal lovers anthropomorphisize human eating sharks into “mistaking” a bleeding human for a non-human prey.
One has to make the decision of doing the noble thing of either not offending anyone of a race by brushing off the issue (“I have seen plenty of white bastards…I have blacks for friends,blah,blah…” Yeah. We know you do. We just want to consider statistics) and so promoting racial harmony but at the same time, in silencing, they risk having their daughter raped because they were afraid to cite ‘racist’ stats about the likelihood of that happening.
