why are they so racist ?, why do they think everybody should date white only? . I just came back from America last week and have noticed that they are very racist . Please if you are white don't offend , but you have to admit that it is true . I really hope one day we can live in a peaceful world no matter the color of your skin 🙂

I find it irritating that as a white person I'm not allowed to make any comment about a non white person otherwise I'm immediately labelled a racist.

Can I just say that it's not just white people that are rascist. I've seen my fair share of, black, Asian and non English, white people throw out some racism.

Unfortunately racism dwells in the hearts of many people from many different corners of the world.

If you want it, you will find it.

So, is it out there?, or is it in you?

It amazes me how many people don't know the difference, and so become the mockery makers themselves.

You are what you think, is all anything ever boils down to.

People always say to me..."so if you don't mind me asking, what are you?"

I'm used to it though and I understand, I'm mixed Asian and white, but I look like I can be of any mixed ethnicity really. It's kind of hard to pin it down.

Human female!
Is normally a response that gets a confused look lol

People are so fucked up, though .... the opportunity is present to be thrilled about being a part of the changing of social perspective, by participating in creation of new breeds and races of people ... but, instead would rather wallow in the misery of having to experience life in this particular meat suit, in time.

There's no doubt in my mind that all of us have experienced life in many others, perhaps with every 4th generation since time begun.

But, STILL ... look at you !!! You are STILL barbaric in vindication if given the chance, just as has ever been.

Well, actually, I've probably had to deal with such fools in every lifetime.

It doesn't really matter though !!!

My father was Jewish, and my mother Roman Catholic ..... meeting in 1948. This was unheard of, an abomination !!!

Every generation or era .. there will always be something different, diverse. So, being mixed race isn't any less or more important than anything else in the life's scheme of things.

It only matters in your mind. The normal person doesn't really notice unless it's pointed out.

If I am in a group of people, my attention and awareness of that person is centered around what kind of person they are in terms of personality, intelligence, honesty .... as far as that person's physical attributes, they aren't relevant to my judgment of them unless it's made a mockery of by that person.

"Why are white people racist" is also a racist statement if you think about it.

PEOPLE are racist. Because, ignorance. And old, outdated thinking.

The occupation that I'm in can make people stupidly racist due to consistent trends and behaviors from specific groups.

But if you think about it, it's not about race, it's about socio-economic groups. The same patterns exist within the same socio-economic groups. Sadly, many of these groups also have specific races involved due to our lovely government keeping them there for the purpose of controlling our society and creating scapegoats.

You know who else is really racist? Hispanics. I hear more blatant racism from these individuals than white folk. At least here, the white people have the common sense not to say such racist shit so openly, haha. There have been times I was offended and felt what they were saying was incredibly unjustified and fucked up. But they think it's okay because they aren't white.

...Because so many people peg white people as being the only ones who are racist. Newsflash, everyone is capable of being racist. Only racists peg white people as the only ones who are racist.

it's not good too mock people either LillyBlossom. mocking people will only come back at you in the worst possible way. thats just as bad as being racist. maybe even worse.

I said I wasn't perfect. I sometimes feel disdain for people. I'm not proud of it.

bottom line is you mocked them. whether perfect or inperfect. and you gone pay for that in later years.

I'm sorry that you've had such a bad time with fire signs. I can assure you we're not all that bad.

Yes we do like to talk. I can't talk on anyone else's behalf but I can tell I always tell someone to their face 1st whatever I would say to someone else.

I'm not a bully and can't stand them. I'm more likely to stick up for someone I don't like before letting someone bully them!

@MadMarchRam it's not that i hate fire signs. (all my kids came from a fire sign mom). i don't like their fiery energetic nature. when fire sign people get together, they gossips about people behind their backs. their the types that talk the talk and can't walk the walk. and they say we geminis talk a lot??!! haha. it wouldn't surprise me one single solitary bit if all my high school and middle school bullies were all fire signs. fire influence people is just bad all the way around. there's nothing nice and kind about them.

It's interesting that you say that because I was known at school for sticking up for the unpopular kids, defending and befriending them. In fact, I almost went out of my way to befriend misfits growing up. My teachers used to say that I should be a lawyer because I always intervened and then brought adults into the situation to ensure justice was served. I also don't backbite, which is why I'm always the outsider amongst women as I keep to myself. Like the other poster said, I am always upfront and say things to people's faces. At work, people complain to the manager behind someone's back. I go straight to the person first, and only go to the manager when the problem is consistent. I am sorry you were bullied; that was unfortunate. I was often sought after to join the so called "popular kids," but I hated cliques and the idea of following and disliking the same people even if I personally had no trouble with them, dressing similar, and liking/disliking the same things. So I did my own thing which meant I knew people from all the different groups.

I honestly was simply playing Devil's Advocate and think I did a pretty good job making a case. Again, it's not what I believe or personally act on. I mentally wanted to explore, and it was misinterpreted as me speaking seriously. My heart wasn't in the wrong place and I didn't have malicious intent.

there seems to be alot of "hidden" racism going on in the U.S. (of course it's everywhere!!) but, i saw this on the news today and i thought, geezzz....the policeman just took out his handgun—!! And not his tazer gun? but i read he is in his 70s? So, it seems weird. But it might be that he really did it out of an accident. But geez. it's awful!! i read it over and to find out if the victim survived, but sadly the news said that he died in the hospital. 😢

we all know if you do criminal activity, it's not about sense.

it still doesn't take away the fact that there are police brutality which really exists.

but i wonder if the man were asian, white or hispanic, would it make a difference?

What's even more racist is that these police brutality stories seem to make the news if there's a minority involved- mostly black people, as of lately. The only reason they're getting the attention they're getting is because a black person is involved. They go after other minorities with the same racial profiling, but you aren't hearing about that as much, are you?

There's a reason these stories are hitting mainstream and it's not just a coincidence or things coming to light suddenly.

Alot of people make comments about someone else's weight over being racist or pre judice nowadays. Being overweight and being bullied has more effects than any other..alot of people are committing suicide over this and not really about skin issues..

It's like what shall we talk about today, gaining weight or being judge for your skin color? Or being the only mixed person in your neighborhood..yeah people look at that too..

Or being bullied about your weight or skin color.

I'm a product on 1 Italian, 1 Czechoslovakian, 1 German, and 1 Scotsman who said fuck this shit during ww2.

Probably the reason I secretly feel I belong in Europe.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the term 'African American' is the PC way to address a black american?

Not all black people in america, born there or otherwise, is of African descent. Some have heritage from west Indies, the carribean islands and many other places.

Just saying 🙂

NOBODY cares who you date, you're racist for thinking that. Do your own thing and stop looking for others' opinions... meh
