Breh, why are you acting like words don't change meaning? If people are using the word racism to mean something else, that definition is valid. You know that when people say racist they are often referring to the system of white supremacy or being oppressed. and it you don't know, now you know. But you're right, according to the white man's dictionary, black people can be racist, too.

So black people can't be racist, because when people are referring to racism they specifically mean white supremacy? Asian people can't be racist? Latinos?

This is a pointless argument, it's just semantics. No one is arguing that black people are capable of white supremacy, but that also isn't what racism means.

Nah, I take no sides, since I'm neither color... I just see people complaining about things that was no different to others in different parts of the world...breh.

Definition of racist according to the dictionary

"a person who believes that a particular race is superior to another."

So yes but what we can't do is institutionally oppress other ethnic groups. We don't have that power. Whites do globally. Arabs do in the Middle East. Asians do in Asia

That's not the definition of racism. Just because some Cac came up with that definition doesn't make it true.

There's only one functional form of racism on the planet and that's white supremacy.

If we're being honest here, black people have taken institutional racism and tried to make it the definition for normal racism so that we can play the, "I'm not racist because I don't have power" card. Institutional racism is a very real thing. But so is racism on an individual level. And you're fooling yourself if you sincerely believe that there aren't viciously racist black people out there. No CAC defense I just call things like I see them. :yeshrug:

Give me an example of black racism and how it affects white people as a group?

the belly of the empire
but we've earned the right to be here...how? By killing off all the indigenous.


If this cac doesn't get the :camby:

Who gives a fukk, is this black land? Is this white land? Both of you'z should then GTFO. None of you are indigenous, so dont try and justify you being in america.

You first, cac.

Don't bother. By their logic gay doesn't actually mean homosexual, because the word gay wasn't actually created to mean a homosexual and was NEVER meant to refer to a homosexual. I mean the first and real use of "gay" was not to refer to homosexuality, right? It means being jovial.

How can you use a term to mean something different?

But if you look up in numerous dictionaries, homosexual is legit actually one of its definition and the vast majority of people have accepted that.


yes. a lot of black people think we are superior to other races
let some negroes tell it, pop tarts were invented in ancient africa. you've heard those negroes before. :comeon:

and yes, the definition of the word in the dictionary is not for WHITE PEOPLE ONLY - stop thinking like a dude living in his moms basement playing madden all day.

arabs, asians, africans, anglo-saxans, all of them have "racists" among them. especially arabs and middle easterners; I suspect all of them to be racist, but that's for another discussion.

And there's cacs that think dreadlocks was started by vikings.

But thanks for agreeing.

If someone shouldn't trust a dictionary definition, why should they trust your definition?

Just because some Coli poster came up with the definition doesn't make it true. :troll:

I'm out of this thread though, this whole discussion is completely pointless and people aren't going to change their opinions.

An hour ago you were all "it is what it is. that's the way the cookie crumbles". Now it's go back to Africa. :mjlol: I'm all for trolling but this is inconsistent nonsense.

How is that inconsistent? I just said I go by... Do to others as you would have them do to you...so I have no inconsistency's, I am only a two sided coin,

Humble or blunt truth.

I am humble to the extant I have to face reality, I'd like everyone to get along, but I am also realistic, I'm not about to kiss any ones ass nor take heath or ignore boundaries, because someone is oppressed, and truth...truth is you do have a choice in america above 18 you can do anything and go any where, I'd rather have any culture go back to their home lands if they are here for the remainder just to yap about how there four fathers had it bad...breh, I'm on my own turf, I am where my people began...are you?

News flash, every culture had it bad. Do you have any papers tying you in its ancestry with the black slaves? (you do know they have records of this right? Most who say are descendants are hilariously not and only fueling false propaganda not even entitled to them) Or is your greats just settlers from some where else a century ago raised in pop culture white vs black panthers vs kkk, fukk both them, I'd never take hate redemption serious from the blacks, and I fukking laugh my ass off at the KKK who dress up like wizards an who think they are some type of neo nazi rip off when they arent even german, I'd slap a kkk in the face just the same if he approached me with that jazz. So why should I care, you dont care about the 400+ years of white slaves in africa, or the slaves in the middle east, or slaves in asia, or the racism world wide, you just isolate your self to the people around you, with the ignorant historical knowledge around you. Obviously you do have a problem and you are racist or you wouldnt have made this thread.

If you dont like it, then yeah, I am gona be blunt like that guy on the video I linked... stop complaining. I'll do you a favor an stay out your thread, because the things you brought up in all the pages is just a provocation for flaming in general. I take no ones side but I will be quick to call someones bullshyt out and hypocrisy.

Why should I trust a definition created by a white person? White people have zero incentive to have an honest discourse on the subject and only a fool would take thier opinion seriously.

There's only one form of racism on the planet, and it's white supremacy and it's been that way or the last 500 years at least.

Im pretty sure that this is the univerisally accepted term for racism

To assume that Black people have no power in 2016 is completely laughable and ignorant (and a discriminatory thought against Blacks).
that's a severe misreading of what ol dude (or girl) was saying imo

This type of argument is purely semantics... it's silly to me.

Black people are obviously not the perpetrators of THE racist system of opression here in America, they are the victims of it. So obviously they can't be racist in that context. But anyone can be racist generally speaking because the word racist just means you think there are fundamental differences between human beings based purely on "race" and generally, you look down on other "races" for reason A, B, or C. Anyone can do that.

However, white people complaining about racism towards them.... cause they can't say nikka and shyt like that is :snoop: embarassing. So most of the time when black racism is brought up, it will be some dumb shyt like white people feeling like black people are racist cause they "keep racism alive by bringing it up all the time" :snoop: :snoop:. The thought process shown in those examples is just bullshyt, but long story short yeah; anyone can be racist in my opinion.
