What is RACISM?

A recent thread reviewing a well known RIU vendor has turned into a racism debate. You can find it here.

https://www.rollitup.org/seedbank-reviews/389441-attitude-before-making-your-purchase-3.html

The main question has become, what defines racism?

The original statement made was, "I don't care for mexicans."

Would this be considered a racist statement? I, for one, cannot see how the statement ISN'T racist.

Your thoughts?

well, maybe.

its really hard to say. for him in his life he may be fully justified in his lack of latino care. but i wonder, is that it? is it just the mexicans? so hes cool with Guatemalans?
got no beef w porto rico.

i definre rascism as predifined feelings or opinions without interaction.

i understand it, but i dont understand it, if you can understand that.
im a southern boy, i seen a bit of racism. and you wanna think about something funny?

think about every racist joke you ever heard. if you really think about them all the jokes about blacks are really about how ignorant unskilled or uncaring some white dude is.
all those pollock jokes are really jokes about how ignorant and uncaring some non-polish guy was.

have you ever wondered why there arent any "white guy" jokes? (by that i mean a joke about just being white, not jewish, or irish, or scotish)
cuz they all are.
they are all the jokes.


but you know what.
everybodies racist.
me
you
everybody
cant help it
its just semi cultural at this point
darwinian evolution hasnt quite smoothed that out yet.

but im very racist.
this whole human "race" as some would say. bunch of untrustworthy bastards.
bastard coated bastards with bastard centers.
you cant trust one of them hume's always takin our jobs.
willing to work just to survive. how sad.

DOWN WITH THE HUME'S.

and dont even get me started one the swiss.

comin here takin all our best cheese makin jobs

influencing us with their damn finely made chocolates.

and everybody knows cubans are made of antimatter.

I'm racist.

I hate all races including my own (Mexican) to a certain extent.

Let's be honest, some stereo types are true. Asians can't drive, Blacks don't like to work, Mexicans are lazy but hard workers (???) and white people are crazy, lol.

Tell a "Drift King" he can't drive.

I don't think Blacks like to work any more than anyone else does. The difference is Blacks are more willing to verbalize how much something is disliked.

I don't see the difference between you calling Mexicans lazy, and Blacks not liking to work? :/ Everyone works hard when they feel like they have something to work hard for.

White people are crazy. lol






But so are Black females, old Asians and young Latinos.

Obviously not insulting you baja, but that's racism right there.

I feel racism can be identifying sterotypes and using them as a generalization of the population. There's obviously a dictionary definition but "being racist" is much wider than any dictionary can define. There's so many ways to be racist but until we as a population of humans take that racist mentality and stick it in the same place as the idea that the world is flat and other illogical ideas we will never truly rid ourselves of racism.

Point proven, all stereo types are true, whether an Asian can drift or drive like shit on the I-8 in California. When I was a waiter I hated having black people at my tables, lousy tippers and complained about everything. Asians are also shitty tippers BUT they don't complain. Mexicans either tip big or low, never in between. White people are crazy, they are all of them combined, tip big, tip small, complain and tip big, complain and tip small...etc. etc. Crazy, lol Point is some races are predictable as far as "stereotypical" theories.

You are not insulting me, I already said I was a racist

I was obviously (hopefully) joking but my point is, if you have ever been a waiter or been in customer service, you learn to "dislike" (or hate) certain races due to stereo types.

Racism is just a word...until everyone is grey there will always be a form of "racism."

Do you really need to start a new thred to find a definition for somthing that you have already concluded to be racist? I said that i think his comment was discriminatory not racist but people have there own definition of what racist is. I dont like poodles, is that a racist remark? I dont like gangs or bikers, how about that. so the comment "I dont like mexicans." is just an opinion about one persons outlook on a paticular people. nowitall is right in a sence, we are all racist to an extent. when you were a kid did you ever tell somone I HATE YOU! or I dont like spinnage or how about how much you dislike the people who destroyed the trade centers. what about the islamic or Irak terrorists? are they all terrorists because there from that country. im sure you have said to yourself, I hate those people at some time in your life. We all need to find more important things to worry about, not dwell on one persons statement about his own opinions. It's not a perfect world and your not a perfect person. nor am I. and thats my opinion.

For those of you who are racist to all races... I would say at least you're not being prejudiced. I wouldn't call that racist. I would call it something else.. because you're at least hating equally...

Apparently if you point out that statistically one race falls behind all others in wealth, technology, culture, science and pretty much every other category that makes you a racist. Oh and if you hate Muslims who aren't even a race, you're racist.

We are all the same.

yes, thats true. I mean, look at black people... they've become racially superior in almost every way to white people.

Golf- Tiger Woods Politics-Barack Obama Basketball - Lebron James Culture-Rock and Roll

Wow... it must be awesome to be black.

Blacks? Rock n Roll? Whom are you speaking of? Black Eyed Peas don't count. Now if you were talking R&B, Blues, Jazz, Rap, Hip Hop I'd say you were right. But not Rock n Roll.
