If you are not racist, Why?

[The Last Stand]

I'm an individualist. I judge people based on their character. Issue is that some people are just uncivilized.

Thirdly and finally for now, humans over-exaggerate pattern recognition.

Over-exaggerate, maybe, but they're not constructed out of nothing. So it would seem the smart strategy supported by empirical reality is to listen to one's racist intuitions, but allow for the possibility of individuals who deviate from that pattern.

That's what I try to do.

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.

That's my opinion too.
Humans are just humans at their core, race only changes some physical aspects (like how black people are so good at certain sports) but the main issue is culture. Personally my main issue is with Muslims.

Muslim Arabs are degenerates, for example. I was born and raised, and still in live in a first-world country that is suffering from mass immigration issues especially from Muslim-dominant countries. Guess what? They're the ones committing crimes, dealing drugs and making everything unsafe. My home city is gorgeous and dates back to the Roman empire, we have the sea and beautiful forests and rural areas. But it has slowly been invaded by Muslim immigrants. They've taken over entire districts and made the whole city unsafe. I don't live there anymore but I'm going back for college and I am both excited and incredibly sad/angry.
The non-Muslim migrants however (think ones from Ukraine, Poland, Italy, Christian Lebanon, basically anyone and anything non-Muslim) are mostly peaceful.

So I wouldn't call myself racist, no. Idgaf about skin color and such. But some cultures and religions are simlply fucked up and deserve to be fully reformed and/or eradicated.
Muslims should be the top priority, they're literally killing, raping and causing wars in so many countries, INCLUDING MUSLIM-MAJORITY ONES.
Pajeets are absolutely insane too but it's Indian culture, a whole country, so imo much harder to fix than Muslims since they're a religion and not a culture.
And some other cultures have issues too like some countries in South America, or South Korea, but nothing as bad as Muslims and Indians imo.

One of my points is that there are far better and more accurate social cues to guide one's guardedness. You see some dude with a friendly manner, dressed well, speaking clearly, you're going to respond differently than you would to a group of young males hanging around on the street in 'gangsta' clothes and blasting out loud music and shouting at passing women. And both of my scenarios are going to be true whether you switch your mental visualisation from White, to Black, to "Latino". You might feel one demographic is more or less likely to be in one of those scenarios than the other (and in America you might be right) but that's besides the point - these cues I talk about are going to dramatically out compete skin colour in informing you how likely you are to cross the street.

Why go to race? It's a statistical drift far overwhelmed by more obvious factors. You've actually done what I said any criticisms of what I wrote would do, which is to base them on tendencies when my most essential point is that racism isn't a conversation about overall generalisations. That's the Progressive idea of racism because Leftists don't think in terms of individuals, only power groups. Racism is the act of treating an individual differently based on their race. There's no need to do that and in fact it's counter-productive to yourself as well as unfair to individuals. Use the context and cues you have - they're more reliable by orders of magnitude.

This is an absolutely critical act: Racism is not statistics. You can say all sorts of things statistically that are true. It becomes prejudice when you apply it to an actual person and pre-judge them. That's what racism actually is. Not the Leftist-Progressive reinvention that thinks it's a group or societal structure. Sexism, Racism, whatever-ism. They're all acts of treating people based on an assigned group identity rather than individuality. The moment you think otherwise you have accepted the premise of the Progressive that lets them make their arguments.

So to re-address the OP's question, I am not racist because I am not a collectivist, I am not a Left Wing Progressive, I don't see the world in terms of Identity Politics. Racism is a form of Identity Politics and I don't do that. I have all the cues I need to interact with someone from who they are as an individual.

 

[The Last Stand]

The best way to disprove racism is to have babies interact with each other and train them the same way. Children aren't born with hate.

 

[Overly Serious]

@Pepito Cafe Sounds like you would recognise something in this notorious tweet:


The funniest thing about the tweet is that it's true. In so many ways.

 

[levin88]

That's because being racist is unattractive. How many people are there that want to be around someone hateful enough to be against a whole group of people. By race or gender.

 

[David Brown]

I've never met or even heard of anyone who hates people because of the color of their skin. In fact I don't think anybody has ever actually done that, except completely insane schizo freaks who don't really count as people. Skin color is a uniform and an indicator that happens to be a good predictor of behavior at scale. Nobody's skin has ever caused them to do anything lol.

Accusations of racism are just used to browbeat White people who don't want to be enslaved through taxes and tortured by Anarcho tyranny and population replacement. Anti-racist is a code word for anti-White. Diversity means chasing out and ejecting every last White person.

I'm surprised by the amount of people in this thread who acknowledge the physical differences between races but for some reason refuse to acknowledge the brain as a physical object impacted by genetics. You think evolution only went neck high? Is the brain just made of magic fairy dust from the equality fairy? Your brain is not even 10% of your body weight but consumes a huge amount of resources. Of course evolution has a huge impact on the brain. Maybe more than any other organ. Genetics is what causes race differences.

Some people here insist on the "muh cultural differences" cope. Where did the culture come from? Culture works together with biology and some culture excels and thrives when employed by different biologies. Some biologies cannot adopt other cultures no matter how hard you try. At some point we as a society will be forced to recognize that all the failures of integration are insurmountable, or we will be destroyed. Nature, the lovely and cruel bitch, doesn't give a fuck one way or another.

 

[WTBOnlineFather]

I don't need to be racist because I live in a country that doesn't have niggers. Gypsies aren't a race so hating them doesn't make me racist.

 

[assigned Karen at birth]

One reason I'm not racist is because I hate woke-ism, and woke-ism is incredibly racist.

[Lach]

Yeah i'm pretty racist, yet I treat every one I meet from multiple racial and ethnic groupings pretty well until given a steep reason otherwise, I've been friends with a black security guard from Sierra Leone(who I suspect was a warcriminal), Mexicans, Hmongs, Mongols, I just don't believe in having kids with other races especially whites since it just brings the iq average down and mutts seem to be more resentful of their white parental counterparts for not being white(lol). Of course, I'm also pretty steep on immigration as well since I know for a fact that nonewhites no matter how hard you try to assimilate/befriend/fellate, will always create a subculture for themselves that takes an opposition to the white native demographic, you can just look up voting averages in the United States and cope about how we need more chinks and spics "who are so trad" that continually vote for ruin of my country in exchange for short term gibs and preferential treatment.

 

[cuddle striker]

I have lived in a lot of diverse places, currently do too. Because of my job, I've been called out to white trash hell, ghetto row homes, and crowded apartments with 4 generations of Asian nutters in one room.

People are all the same. Some are good, some are bad. Nationality matters more than color, when you get into it- cultural values that make people "bad" are usually homeland garbage that's been carried over as tradition.

And every culture, every nationality has these. European "old country" cultures are disgusting in their own special way, see any white trash and that's all of it. Indians bring caste trash values and bad hygiene (regardless of caste). Africans bring misogyny and hoarding. Black Americans and Irish people have heavy cultural loads about being "less human" and the violent response to that is generational. Name a country and there's a disgusting behavior that comes from its culture.

I'm merikan so I hold the melting pot ideals- you should bring the best parts of your culture to contribute and leave the mess behind. The more originally impoverished and downtrodden from other nations live up to this- Sikhs, Somalians, Arabic women on their own. (Muslim women who escape the home country assimilate really fast - clothing notwithstanding, they make excellent doctors and lawyers, and appreciate educational opportunities they definitely value and would not have had access to)

The more status a group had in the home country, the more repulsive ideas they will bring along with them.

I'm strongly in favor of race mixing, simply because it puts the kids into a fully American cultural context and they DO want to leave behind the embarrassing things their parents partake in. I'm white but don't feel an attachment to it as any kind of identity.

 

[Thorndyke Special]

I don't consider myself a racist, but many people I know would just because I strongly believe that we have to be able to honestly talk about issues like the black crime rate if we're ever going to solve the underlying problems.

In my personal dealings, I try very hard to overcome my racial biases and to treat people based upon their character.

Now I am very prejudiced against one group of people and think the world would be better off without them, but communists aren't a race so I'm in the clear.

 

[community member]

I'm racist for the purposes of self defense given the statistics but it's mostly just against the men

 

[hog cranking frog]

"Racist" is as nebulous these days as "woke"

We talking hard core essentialism or simply noticing things? To some, a new red panic has kicked off where under their beds are maga hat wearing klansmen waiting to hang them. I believe this to be absurd yet it's a view a segment of society has (probably a small segment)

I try to treat everyone I meet with respect and reserve judgement as a principled stance. That said, many today would consider me a racist for noticing things. I also find the AA appreciation thread very funny, and niggers eating corn starch thread to be one of my favorite on the internet. I probably disagree with many of the posters on the issue of essentialism but who gives a shit let's have a fun time online.

 

[A Proud Black Woman]

Because I am black!

 

[Margo Martindale]

By leftist standards I'm a super nazi chud the descendant of hitler just because I like laughing at racist jokes and making racist jokes

But reality is different, I like the give everyone a chance irl no matter what race/sex/religion, as long as they are a decent person, excluding obvious red flags like looking like a drugged up tweaker or something else that screams DANGER

 

[analrapist]

Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you [nation of Judah], and given to a nation [ethnos] bringing forth the fruits thereof. - Jesus, Matthew 21:43

The term "nation" there is "ethnos" in the Greek, from which we derive the term "ethnicity".

Now I'm not saying that anyone is superior as a consequence of race, but the gospel record makes it crystal clear that there's a vast difference in the different ethnoi. This makes me a "racist" by many definitions.

"By their fruits will ye know them." We're to deal with people as individuals. So technically, I'm no racist, but by the contemporary definition of racism, sure.

 

[TenMilesWide]

I have been informed by my educated betters that Racism = Prejudice + Institutional Privilege. I have no institutional privilege, therefore I can only at worst be prejudiced.
