That's What Racism Isn't

For me, the 'preference' is a culture thing, NOT a physical thing. Let me make that clear. Even if it were a physical thing, what's wrong with that?

I dislike the victim mentality.

No, you're just playing messiah.

My preferences as to beauty are quite contrary to whatever ones "the man" might be forcing on me, so I would love to hear your explanation as far as that duality.

Implying the preferences of people you have never met are the result of brainwashing is shitheaded thinking.

Please refrain from shitting in my mind like that, ever again.

Ditto.

On that note, I'm wondering if anyone can tell me what they think about the following:

My parents never taught us about race. The first black person I saw was my bff in second grade-skin color never occurred to me then either. We moved, my new school had all white kids . . . still never occurred to me. My older sister,years later, marries a black guy. Still no blip on the radar. My grandparents said some stuff, but I smoothed it over, and all was well.

Then he started feeling me up. Later found out he did the same thing to my little sister. I moved out, moved away . . . and ever since, every black guy I've ever worked with has hit on me in a sexual manner. I don't know if it's cultural or what it is, but I begin to think about race now when I see a black guy, and associate black men with guys who like to grab a woman's ass and fondle her breasts, smell her hair . . .

Does that make me racist? Black guys make me physically uncomfortable and I would never date one. I don't feel racist, which is why I explained the above.

Any thoughts?

Btw, my boyfriend is vietnamese. He feels me up with my permission. ;-)

I had two white guys steal from me. Should I be threatened by every single white guy within proximity? Sorry Kwist, you're a racist.

NEXT!
 
FYI, I've dated people from several different ethnic backgrounds and I found them all beautiful. Don't be so quick to judge others. Maybe you do it because you feel others are judging you?

It seems there are more and more boneheaded threads on race here lately, so I must be as thoughtlessly flippant as the responses I've seen here. Usually I leave but I'm in the mood to respond to this hot mess.

BenW, I've met clones who express themselves similarly. How unoriginal. Next time you respond to me, please come up with something I haven't heard before.

So tell me, what 'culture' do I come from????

Now you stepped in it...

Wow, my post was unoriginal, apparently?
Brilliant debate tactic; completely ignoring what I said.

You're clearly a moron with a superiority complex, and you've earned a spot on my ignore list.

Have a great day.

No one insulted you personally in this thread. Why are you so bent out of shape?

I don't know what culture you come from or belong to or like best because I don't even know you at all. It doesn't matter anyways. You have your mind made up that you are lonely because of the SHEEP.

Ketsugi, I'm tired of cretinous individuals who believe they're even qualified to have conversations like these, when everything that falls out of their mouths is plain-dumb, callous and thoughtless. The fact that you don't know why I'm responding the way I am, makes you ignorant. I don't feel it's my job as one of the few black people on this forum to educate you. Sorry, but I'm not that generous with my time.
 
I will not argue with someone who has this much hate in them. Toodeloo.

Have you read your responses throughout this thread? Dude, you're a straight-up racist. But somehow you believe you're behavior is acceptable. Amazing.

First of all sedna, I don't give a rat's bum fur what race or culture you come from. Whatever it may be however, I am sure it does not disdain showing others a modicum of respect.

If you feel you are in a position of superior knowledge than those you have been conversating with you should be able to eloquently and adequately explain why you are correct in your assumptions.

Re: Calling Kwist a racist....You should likely read the very good discussion thread regarding the definitions of racism, bias, prejudice etc. http://forum.infjs.com/showthread.php?t=1652&highlight=racism .
Additionally you may want to re-read the forum rules regarding trolling behavior.

Re: Your 'thoughtlessly flippant about race' comment.... If there is a problem with the attitude towards race maybe you should take a night or two to cool yourself down and post something more enlightening that starting some sort of flame war. Maybe the problem is more you than anyone else right now.

Re: to your reply to BenW, if you've heard his comment before you should know exactly how to refute it. I see nothing but baiting, incendiary commentary, and trollish behavior. Don't engage in name calling and inflammatory rhetoric as your debate tactic.

I'm giving back in tone exactly what I read here. Becasue it's CLEAR to me that dense people have a hard time understanding otherwise.

It's funny. I'm just ONE person, but I'm glad that I got under your skin enough for you to understand the texture of the asinine responses that preceded yours, that my eyes had to endure. But instead of you being focussed on that, you choose to single me out. You know what, go crawl back under your fucking rock and leave me the hell alone. Who the hell are you to tell me how to respond to extreme racism, bigotry and ignorance?

I just wanted to say that I find your responses entertaining.

Please continue with your poor logic and lack of argumentative skills. Someone will eventually ban you but for now I'm having fun watching what you say.

v I see the process has started. v

Last Mohican, DO NOT email me to tell me how to respond to offensive and ridiculous threads like this, if they continue to exist. Period.

So happy to entertain you jerk.

FYI - I don't argue with people below me. I throw mud at them.
 
Wow! It's clear that I picked the wrong time to post my thoughts!! lol. Alcyone, as always, I respect your aptly stated opinions and sharp tact.

As for Sedna, My whole point is, is it racism if, over a span of three years, the only people who have ever touched you inappropriately (definition being unasked for and unwanted ass-groping, breast fondling, and hair grabbing) have been six black men? Is my discomfort from racism or sexual harrassment? And some of the times I told a superior, and some of the times I didn't . . . This has NEVER been done to me by ANYONE else.

Actually you are indeed not giving back, in tone, what you are getting. You are giving out vituperation, judgement, and ignorance.

You are being clear in only that you want to have an antagonistic attitude in the conversation, insulting people by calling them names, and then expecting them to show you some sort of sympathy for your experiences....As well as expecting people to just switch over to your side without giving them the knowledge you claim to harbor.

I singled you out because you weren't contributing to a discussion, you were de-escalating it into a flame war.

If you didn't want to be singled out, you wouldn't have posted the content you did, in the manner you did. You are getting the attention you want. Why are you telling me to go back under my rock? Or is it just because you actually don't have anything cogent and articulate to say to back up your suppositions?
