If you are not racist, Why?

I'm sure someone out there would label me as a racist, but personally I do not think I am racist. I definitely think there are inferior cultures, but not necessarily inferior races. A good example is in Indian culture, from my perspective Indian culture is filled with degeneracy, but I think if you took an Indian baby, and separated him completely from India he would not be a scammer or a rapist (or anymore likely to be).

Something that stuck with me is a video I watched about a Klansman explaining that he sees black people and niggers, with niggers being ghetto and black people just being dark skinned normal people. I see it a similar way, I see American black people as a race of people who have become ghettoified in their culture, and my real concern is that kind of ghetto behavior could spread to white people.

The racial IQ stuff is something I don't really know about, but I think most of the things creating inferiority in particular races are more to do with culture than IQ.

I'm not a racist. But like above, I am very culturalist and religionist.

I don't hate white people, but I don't like the socialist views held by some of them. There are plenty of non-woke white people I get on with just fine.

I don't hate black people, but I don't like the drill or ghetto cultures. There are plenty of normie black families I get on with just fine who don't get involved in that.

I don't hate arabs, but I don't like their widely held opinions on women. There are arabs I get on with just fine who similarly don't like the state of things in their ancestral homelands.

Gays aren't a race and I genuinely am not bothered by their sexual preference, but I still don't like the wider LGBTQ+ hook up leftist culture that permeates many of their communities.

So on, and so forth. I've similarly heard, usually from dubious sources, that certain races are predisposed to certain behaviours but I can't say I think about this. I don't know enough about it, and even if it was true being a dumbass is no excuse for being a gang banger.

A few reasons. Firstly it's unfair to a good person or a skilled person to treat them as if they are not; or conversely for Progressive racism, to pretend the bad is good. I care about fairness and that means treating people based on who they are.

Secondly, for simple practicality. I am capable in a few moments of interaction of judging how easy someone is to get along with, if they're intelligent or not, if they're shifty or not. Most of us have these basic capabilities of human interaction. So going to some media-informed proxy process is both unnecessary and in fact less accurate than the evidence of my own eyes and ears.

If someone wishes to quibble with those positions it's likely that they want to talk about tendencies and generalities. Well that is the racism - judging the individual based on other people who share some racial group. You can talk about race (though discussions are often ill-informed messes) without being racist, but it's racism when you treat an individual differently based on that rather than who they are. It's neither fair nor, usually, efficient.

Thirdly and finally for now, humans over-exaggerate pattern recognition. This is a known thing. In particular negative reinforcement is known to outweigh positive reinforcement. Add in the tendency to conflate culture with race (especially Americans and Progressives love doing this), and it's usually just not well-grounded. People, of any skin colour, are just typically not well grounded in rational thinking, and that's something we all know is true.

I'm not racist, I like variety.
There are people of all races that I despise just on sight, including my race.
Just because I've met these exact types so many times, I recognize them on sight.

I grew up around skinheads and such, I know them when I see them, they stand out to me.
Now however, I live in a place that, for example, has Arabs.
Some of these Arabs are hoodrats and they almost have hoodrat uniforms, there are a couple of looks that only they have.
When I see Arabs like those, I immediately get cautious, just in case.
99% nothing happens but you know, better safe than sorry.

Does that make me racist?
Perhaps but at least nothing happens to me when I go out.

Real answer tho, I don’t have any strong feelings in particular about people in general. No amount of talking can change some people. It sounds like a cop-out, but they are who they are.

Dramatic changes of heart are found only in Christmas movies, and the author of “Amazing Grace” which has a pretty interesting inspiration.

What I do hate are the actions some people do. Particularly anything to harm the weak like kids and animals. Part of the reason I like Kiwi Farms, because we expose the people who do just that.

I’m also simply passive about the world in general. I am concerned with how things are, and how they ought to be. However, it is not in my hands, but in God’s hands, And He has a plan I couldn’t hope to compete with.
