http://www.thecoli.com/threads/chinese-racism-is-bold-washin-nikkas-clean-dead.431000/

but according to THIS thread, black people nor asians can be "racists" by definition

 

[Booker T Garvey]

This is 100% wrong, they benefit from the system of white supremacy just like everyone else that's white.

how fam? explain. not trying to argue, just trying to see your point.

 

[Gifted one]

yes. please. run along now.

in a debate/discussion, people are going to challenge your opinions and you ain't having that shyt.

instead of debating you opted to deflect and even went so far to get on some:

"no using examples!! don't ask me to answer that!! unfair!!"

but your momma thinks you're smart though and that's all that matters little buddy.

Thanks for taking bits and pieces of my post debates are pointless if there is no solutions being drawn, hence why it's pointless because you in your feelings since you can't point out my points. Go ahead and quote me again, no need for me to go back with someone who is inferior to a civilized discussion...

But wait...

I said you're inferior So now I'm racist the same way the powers that be that systematically and institutionally oppress others are

so basically only whites can be racist according to yall?

So all this time me calling "racist" mexicans, arabs, asians, etc. "racist" has been actually me being a know nothing c00n?


Cmon everyone can be racist

Yall not even being sensible in yall arguments no more

Ol "im angry bout this so my racism not rlly racism " ass nikkaz

Racism is racism

If Johnny had his whole white family merked by black ppl for no reason and had a subtle hatred for blacks because of it I would call Johnny a racist..Idc how justified he thinks he is for having such hatred

How does some podunk poor redneck fukk living in the middle of Fairhope, AL benefit from Racism? Not all white people benefit from racism. In fact these are the idiots too stupid to realize their racism fukks them up when they vote overwhelmingly for Republican, and then wonder why their ebt and welfare benefits seem to shrink year after year.

Because that poor redneck has to do very little to turn his life around and get on track. The system is set up for him to succeed, whether he wants to or not is his choosing.

[Virtuous_Brotha]

Prejudiced? Yes. Racist? No. Racism is power based. Me calling a white person names doesn't compare to a group who can prevent me from living in a certain part of town, taking out a business loan, getting a particular job or even a job at all, due to my skin color.

Not only that, but you also have the mainstream media which is utilized to paint a less than favorable image of blacks compared to whites. So no, there's no way a black person can be racist in today's society

So if a group of say Hispanics attacked you unprovoked and started brutally giving you that work while calling you a nikker it would not be a racist attack?

 

[Anerdyblackguy]

Why are people taking out the power context when it comes to racism?

@Knuckles Red red said it best

Racism = is power + prejudice

Again us black people In America lack systematic power to be racist.

 

[DazednTranslation]

Is this thread referring to African Americans or all black people in general? ?

 

[PhonZhi]

I dont give a shyt about what happened in the past

What race are you?

 

[Virtuous_Brotha]

Think racism and white supremacy are the same thing brehs

Why are people taking out the power context when it comes to racism?

I'm noticing folks have to strip it down to the most basic and raw form to be able to draw these comparisons for the sake of "blacks can be this too". Almost like the obvious advantage one side over the other needs to be toned down for the sake of debate. The fact that even has to be done tells you everything you need to know.

 

[GetInTheTruck]

saying black people can be racist is like saying someone's 8 year old is abusing them
can their child hit them? yes, but using the word "abuse" for it, which automatically connects it to an adult beating a child, is retarded

So we should look at black people collectively as children?
