Forums - General - Why are people racist?

In order to be racist you have to not look at people as individuals. Instead, racists look at people as collective groups such as we the people, we the poor, we the white, we the females, and so on. This is not really a bad thing. However, racists take it another step. Instead of just looking at people as groups, they also think of members of such groups as people similar to each other and different from so called regular people. And again, usually take it a step beyond that by treating people differently because they are members of these so called groups.

Individualists cannot be racists. Only collectivist are even capable of people racist. Of course, well educated collectivists cannot even be racist because they know that the science on race is not yet decided. Most scientists that look at the issue think that different human races don't actually exist. However, collectivists tend to not be interested in such thoughts by their very nature so many collectivists are racist.

Racism exists mainly because, just like the Germans believed in WW2, they believe in the perfect race. The other reason is because people that are of the Jewish faith or African American will not drop the subject that their races/faiths were killed/harmed in the past.

Now I'm not racist by any shape or form, my half-brother is african-american, and he agrees with me that there is a difference between an african-american and the N word. Anyone from any race on the planet can be the N word because it means lazy, a** hole, f*cktard, etc.

Now I have no idea if anyone thinks the group Anonymous is trying to accomplish is racist or not. But i'll let you know I protest scientology as a cult because until they change their ways they simply are.


I know this is 3 different subjects and all that but it was easier to jam them all into one post instead of making 3.

^well i said based on what ive seen. and its true. i have no problem with white people but when i used to play with white kids as a little kid (i still do), i could tell there parents didnt want me there.

example: i remeber going to a birthday party at my neighbours house, and 1 hour into the party the boys mom came home and told my 2 other black kids and this 1 indian kid to go home now "its family time", BLATANTLY. surprisingly she let these 2 little polish kids stay.

           Well people are very silly for making horrible judgements like that, but it's best to take a polite approach (if your able to, depend on the situation) into changing a person's mind on this, then just getting angry over thier negative opinions on a certain race.

==> why do you bring science here ?

of course race exists !

the question is :"do we care ? or not ?'

" do we try to class them ? or not ?"

"do we try to check which is superior to who ? or not "

I believe in race, everybody believe in race.
But do we try to put importance on them ? or not ?
I think we should not ...

I think its to do with personal experience, a lot of people in the UK hate pakistanis, this cant just be an unjust hate for no reson why pretty much every other social group in the UK gets on with no problems, Its to do with how many pakistanis act and treat others like shit and throw around racial comments against white people.

I know it cant be all of them but there is a large number who do go around acting like jerks and they cause hatred to themselves from white people at least, cant speak for Black or Asians or other groups as im not one and none of my very close friends are.



o yes just a question for you guys.

do you consider south americans to be white? i.e diego maradona



"Why are people racists?"

Because everyone else is beneath me. I am not racists, I think I am above you all!!!! I am SuperChunkist.

For really. Racists are just ignorant and need to read more.



Because it's a fallen world.

 This may shock you, but many scientists consider all humans to be the same races.  Scientists used to break down humans into 4 races but than almost all scientists thought that theory was wrong.  Some scientists started breaking down humans to many races but others moved to the we are all the same race theory (which makes the most sense to me).

Are you a collectivist :)
