I find it funny that some racists try to cling on to biological races, the word itself, cultural differences and everything they can to seperate people and don´t realize that they don´t really need any reason to treat others like poop. They can do it anyway if they want. Its just an excuse to justify hate and feel that you are better than others.

How many fall into it and how easily politicians use it to gain more power etc. is also funny, thou still not a good thing.

Do schools often gather that kind of information (race) and if so, how else would they do it? Not that its any of their business to do so in the first place.

 

"don´t realize that they don´t really need any reason to treat others like poop. "

how does acknowledging that, for example, black people have a different appearance to white people equate to treating anyone like poop?

are you fucking serious?

No need to be angry. I am not here to say if someone is or isn´t racist. I don´t think I have enough info for that.

Racism usually equates treating some spesific others badly and using a skin color/false biological race is just an excuse and something that is taught to many people along with the whole concept of race. Acknowledging that people come in different colors, shapes, abilities, personalities, genders, backgrounds, cultures, genes, etc. is fine. People generally have a different appearance to each other, its nothing special.

"Its just an excuse to justify hate and feel that you are better than others."

can you quote the post where anybody said anything about hating a particular race or being better than a particular race?

Why? Should posts be only about what others posted? Mine was about what was discussed, not directly about any posts.

Race and racism go side by side and I think that racism often includes hating and thinking that some "races" are better than others.
