Poll: Is everyone really rascist?

[Go Fighting In The War Room]

Errr....

I just joke about the stereotpes that were made by other people...

 

[martin's a madman]

Humans aren't necessarily naturally racist, but they are definitely naturally Xenophobic, the reason why almost everyone initially feels uncomfortable when around complete strangers. It isn't necessarily a Black Vs White VS Asian VS Etc thing, it's an insider VS outsider thing.

 

[BloodyThoughts]

African American are REAAAAAALLY racist. You have no idea.

I try not to be, but every time they rob us, shoot out our windows, or kill each-other outside our store, it's hard not to let a few hate-filled thoughts pass through.

Don't forget calling us whites crackers and thinking that we don't care. Not that all blacks do that.

 

[VicunaBlue]

No, black people can't be racist.

 

[Ghostkai]

I don't consider myself racist. But to be frank, if I walk into a new job with 5 white dudes, 5 asian, and 5 black, guess which group i'm more likely to try and make friends with?

Not intentional, just the way things are.

I am steriotypical(as a joke) sometimes. I doubt I am racist because my last girlfriend was Korean, and the one before that was black. As that doesn't exactly proove anything, sooo I have no clue.

 

[garjian]

its natural to prejudge, and race is one of the first things you can see about a person.
of course, its no excuse for racial abuse... but surely everyone regards people of each race differently... especially if they dont have a wide, varied experience of the race in question.

 

[AgDr_ODST]

quite simply I think that everyone is atleast a little bit racist(or at the very least capable of racist words/actions)

 

[Darth Pope]

There's a difference between racism and prejudice.

Everyone's a little prejudice, buy true racism is rare.

 

[MagicMouse]

No, black people can't be racist.

Wow, just....WOW.

 

[MiracleOfSound]

Yes.

We are instinctively fearful of the unfamiliar.

 

[T5seconds]

The funny thing is, everyone is prejudice with something while it may not be race. You hated the first MGS game? Not going to buy the second because of the first? That?s you being racist to MGS, your being ignorant towards the fact it could be different that your stereotypical thought of it.

Happy? I didn?t think so.

 

[mcgroobber]

yes everyone is

 

[Disaster Button]

No, black people can't be racist.

Wow, just....WOW.

I believe he was being sarcastic.

Its been said before but people aren't racist, they're prejudice against everything, and uncomfortable with new things at first.

It's interesting to hear the responses of a nearly all young white male demographic talk about racism and its proliferation.

To answer the question, yes.

You see? That is /you/ being racist.

 

[skywalkerlion]

Yes, anyone who says otherwise is a major hypocrite.

 

[Samurai Goomba]

Everyone probably feels more comfortable around their own race, but I don't think everyone is really racist in a hurtful way. Also, noticing what race people are doesn't make one racist.

One thing I hate is the term race referring to people of a different skin color. They're not a different species just because they look different. Just a pet peeve. We should all just say they're people who look different, and have the courage to call white people white, black people black, etc. I don't see how identification based on color is any more offensive than referring to all black people as "African-American" when a good portion of them are neither one.

Stating a fact about this place's demographic isn't racism.

But I'm not quite sure what you're contradicting in my post.

Really? Its a fact? Well god damn, mind telling me where you got those numbers?

THIS.

Seriously, I'm black and I get sick of the bullshit. It mostly elder blacks, though and comedy actors.
