TUH my dude this thread is slippery from the start. You can't possibly say "I'm not racist because my and this guy's races are vaguely the same in some genetic history way." So what? A Brit can be racist against an irishman even if they're basically mixtures of the same people

I'm not saying your OG statement was offensive but you've linked the two issues together here and I'm talking about the race/racism issue

First, the statement I made was not racist. No objective person can come to such a conclusion. Him calling me racist is like what TLOL does, calling everyone anti-semetic because they have an issue with Israel.

Second, they ARE the same race. There CAN be discrimination based on skin tone, nationality, etc.. That is true. That isn't racism. At the end of the day, the Arabs and Jews are genetic kins relatively speaking, and the only thing that separates them are religions and language.

From Wikipedia

While biologists sometimes use the concept of race to make distinctions among fuzzy sets of traits, others in the scientific community suggest that the idea of race is often used[3] in a naive[4] or simplistic way, i.e. that among humans, race has no taxonomic significance: all living humans belong to the same species, Homo sapiens.[5][6] Social conceptions and groupings of races vary over time, involving folk taxonomies [7] that define essential types of individuals based on perceived traits. Scientists consider biological essentialism obsolete,[8] and generally discourage racial explanations for collective differentiation in both physical and behavioral traits.[4][9]

Match point Broke wave.

broke wave is definitely another corny ass worshiper of the arab and their religion, i get a neg about every couple of weeks from him, somalians in general need to figure if they want to be black or arab

Him, Ritzy Sharon and Torrential need to form some type of Canadian Muslim Justice League. Dudes are always riding for each other in every thread.

Much love to them. They know I love them. We just have our differences.

It's not really hate man. It's really all love. I like that we're building on this website. I learn something all the time. I neg and talk shyt but that's part of the fun of it all. I'd probably eat a double bacon swiss with you and have a beer if it came down to it :manny:

Post the entire source breh.

Don't be shy.

As far as the substance of what I said, race as a taxanomical designator is obsolete. So while Israelis, Arabs, Persians, and Indians are perhaps more closely biologically related than other groups, they are not part of the same "race" persay, as we sociologically understand racial groups, which is the place that race matters most. Somali's are the same "race" as Ethiopians, but we are certainly not the same people.

Are we going to act like people aren't going on ant-semitic rants lef and right in the Gaza thread?

Same on this end brother. Just fukking around.

For sure. I feel discrimination is a better word suited for discussing concepts like this. Racism implies to me a particular form based solely on physical features. A lot of these issues presented during this Israel/Gaze thing don't seem to be based on racism. Discrimination based on religion, sure.
