Ok...back to the thread now.
[QUOTE=Mr. Scorpio;24455218]it's not like i give a damn. the fuckin moon men could have gotten the tech first for all i care, all that matters is that someone was bound to get it and they were bound to be dicks with it.[/QUOTE]
Okay, so what is there to discuss, we got the tech first, so that means it is morally okay for us to abuse our technology to make our lives better while suppressing the majority of the population of the planet?

[QUOTE=Mr_Razzums;24455307]What are you going on about?[/QUOTE]
He said someone is bound to develop advanced technology first, and those people are bound to be dicks.
So does that make it okay?
Does that justify atrocities?

Not relevant to thread.
[QUOTE=sloppy_joes;24455225]Okay, but some advancements are mostly used for good, and some are mostly used for bad.
Penicillin and Insulin, not killing anyone anytime soon. Napalm, mustard gas, and chlorine gas, not really helping humanity, but still a step forward. as you said.[/QUOTE]
both a product of advances in chemistry.
Let's just say everyone is equal and call it a night
This thread is silly!
There is nothing wrong with black people they just need to work a bit more and play a bit less.
That's all :smile:

Shit, I think I already knew that, It's pretty late here and I'm working at like 15% capacity.
[QUOTE=TH89;24455095]Also, your ancestors have accumulated large amounts of [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_capital]social capital[/url] and [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cultural_capital]cultural capital[/url] that they have passed on to you, and which give you a big advantage over most minorities.[/QUOTE]
Yes, my Irish ancestors have always been at the forefront of society

The Past Is The Past Lil' Buddy.
As the Fons would say...

Forget About It[/i] :biggrin:
The people who are truly racist are horrible, and there certainly is evidence to suggest that there is.
However, I can't tell you how much I hate idiots that get uptight because I won't call black people "African American." Call me white. I don't care.
And that's pretty much my whole policy on race. I just don't care. So what if white people are better suited for swimming and black people for running? It doesn't mean a damn thing. However, that goes both ways. If you get disproportionately offended because I say "nigger" in a lighthearted and sarcastic tone with my friends (some of which who are black and they don't seem to give a damn either), I'm not going to care either.
As a matter of fact, I don't give a shit so much that it really gets me angry when people make a big deal out of this. Yes, racism is out there. No, I'm not going to care about it round the clock. Sorry.
It's all fun and games until the PC white knights come around to ruin everything. The only cure for this is apathy. Forcing people apart and saying "you have to respect them for who they are no matter what" is only going to make the problem worse.

Actually nothing is going to solve the problem. Because A, like you no one gives a shit about things that aren't self evident to them, and B, because people are cocks.

You say that apathy isn't going to solve the problem, and then you go and say that apathy is the best policy.
Am I missing something?

Not true. :smile:
[QUOTE=TheLocust;24455654]Not true. :smile:[/QUOTE]
Yes true. Hitler didn't look at what happened when Napoleon went into Russia, and the Nazis got fucked.

I've never met a black guy who prefers African American and I've never met an Indian who prefers Aboriginal.
Who are these people?
I call black people neither black or African-American.
They are my brothers :smile:

There is no best.
As I said, we're fucked.
I've met natives who don't like being called Indian, but that's understandable.
