Honestly I'm not even sure what the big deal is. It seems like only whites aren't allowed to be racist anymore but everyone else can be as racist as they want to white people. Either don't tolerate it at all or tolerate all of it. It's a hypocritical stance.

idk, hard to win the argument when you have to split hairs over "are we racist, or anti-semitic?"

I mean, that isn't splitting hairs. They are two different hates. One is hate aimed at races/ethnicities, the other is specific to people of the Jewish faith. They aren't interchangeable. I can't call someone an anti-semite if they are merely vocal about Asians. and I can't call someone a racist if they hate hindus. The logic just isn't on my side.


But with this place being a drought when it comes to logic, I really shouldn't have expected anything more.

I know you think you're really clever - but the point I was making is that racism and being an anti-semite makes you a bad person. Arguing over whether you're a racist or anti-semite does not have a "good outcome" for you.

Does it? I'm asking on a merely philosophical level at this point I suppose. Chunky Milk

Either don't tolerate it at all or tolerate all of it. It's a hypocritical stance. It's probably a 'justice' for white people oppressing others in the past. Not that I'm apologising on behalf of all whites here though. This is a feeling we should have gone over long ago; we're in the 21st Century, and we need to make steps towards true equality and not some vengeful sense of karma. That's not what equality is about. Prepare for hell on RuneScape in Naval Cataclysm!

yes.

Really? Because I have many friends who at some time or another express racist views, but I wouldn't call them a bad person.

I guess that's because I don't hold their social limitations against them out of spite. Chunky Milk
