Black and Asian men charged with hate crime in beating of white teen - Polidicks

[QUOTE=OleWally;25041306] inb4 neanderthals had bigger brains[/QUOTE] You just shot down your own argument.

[QUOTE=TH89;25041138]All of this falls well within the pretty well-accepted definition of racism: the idea that race is a determinant of demeanor, abilities, behavioral tendencies, etc.[/QUOTE] wrong, that's stereotyping. racism is when a race is deemed inferior for those qualities. :eng101: i like how on fp you can get banned for saying "all blacks like fried chicken" but if you say "all 12 year olds are screaming twat dumbasses" you don't get banned. the level of discrimination is the same, just on a different basis (age). i remember the days when i'd valiantly attack people who said that all 12 year olds are dumb because they're 12. easily interchangeable with "all blacks are dumb because they're blacks" i think i lost my train of thought a bit i'm not good at making long posts :saddowns:

[QUOTE=noobcake;25043632]wrong, that's stereotyping.[/QUOTE] Not according to Merriam-Webster's and the Oxford English Dictionary. :riker:

[QUOTE=TH89;25043793]Not according to Merriam-Webster's and the Oxford English Dictionary. :riker:[/QUOTE] 1: a belief that race is the primary determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race. From MW. OED is more like your given definition. 1. the belief that all members of each race possess characteristics, abilities, or qualities specific to that race , especially so as to distinguish it as inferior or superior to another race or races

I see, Never saw the "as to distinguish it as inferior" bit. I believe my point still stands, because you don't generally see people going around saying "lol blacks like fried chicken let's make it so they can't vote because they have big lips" as much as you see "lol blacks like fried chicken and have big lips" Really stereotyping is more for entertainment value than anything else. A level headed black character with accurate facial proportions and average diet isn't nearly as funny as a black man with lips the size of aircraft carriers who must carry atleast 5 gallons of koolaid on his back at a time in order to function, in cartoons at least. (I'd like to see a cartoon try to get away with a character like that. :v: )

itt we try to justify our hypersensitivity toward anything dealing with race

All discrimination, but aren't banned generally because...?

this forum is full of discrimination that goes unnoticed and is usually encouraged. but if it involves a jew, black, or asian, it's considered a bannable offense because th89 is a mod

Good on the law. The law should apply to everyone.

What is actual racism to you? Something like "all niggers are violent apes"? (Don't ban me :( )

[QUOTE=Doriol;25045270]this forum is full of discrimination that goes unnoticed and is usually encouraged. but if it involves a jew, black, or asian, it's considered a bannable offense because th89 is a mod[/QUOTE] What about Native Americans?

[QUOTE=Tetracycline;25045355]What is actual racism to you? Something like "all niggers are violent apes"? (Don't ban me :( )[/QUOTE] the unscientific belief that one race is superior to an other

I fucking [B]hate[/B] racists, no matter the color of their skin

[QUOTE=Doriol;25045407]the unscientific belief that one race is superior to an other[/QUOTE] Racial superiority is subjective. It is a scientific fact that Africans have longer, denser bones, so scientifically, they are superior to other races at athletics. If someone considered athletics the most important attribute a human can possess, than they would believe that overall blacks are superior to other races. Would you consider them racist?

[QUOTE=OleWally;25045647]Racial superiority is subjective. It is a scientific fact that Africans have longer, denser bones, so scientifically, they are superior to other races at athletics.[/QUOTE] yes that's scientific, not unscientific so what is your point exactly [editline]penis[/editline] I guess I worded it wrong, I meant that if you hold beliefs that are unscientific about a race, you're a racist.

Technically Africans from America were literally bred for athletics by slave masters

[QUOTE=Doriol;25045682]yes that's scientific, not unscientific so what is your point exactly[/QUOTE] Bad reading [QUOTE=RG4ORDR;25045743]Technically Africans from America were literally bred for athletics by slave masters[/QUOTE] Bad everything Blacks in America have an average of 20% European DNA, and an average of 15 more IQ points than African blacks.

[QUOTE=OleWally;25045764]Blacks in America have an average of 20% European DNA, and an average of 15 more IQ points than African blacks.[/QUOTE] You can't compare the IQ between two groups of people, one being in a area with high rates of education and the other with very poor standards of education and claim they have 'genetic superiority'. It's just dumb. Puns lol.

[QUOTE=Encryption;25038720]Serious question here, Black people always complain of racism towards them. Me for one am not racist at all, may crack a joke with a black friend but thats about it. They always bitch about racism, but who the hell has a black channel on TV? BET If we had a white TV channel it would be an absolute shitstorm. And don't say we have CMT because thats a load of horshit. Only pussies that love people bitching watch CMT. [highlight](User was banned for this post ("Racism" - TH89))[/highlight][/QUOTE] There was absolutely nothing inflammatory in this post directed at blacks or anyone else TH89. The only thing he said is that BET = black and CMT = sort of maybe white You've been banned twice for this already, as a reminder.

What would the public outcry be if we were to call these same black folk "black trash"?

[QUOTE=Doriol;25045270]this forum is full of discrimination that goes unnoticed and is usually encouraged. but if it involves a jew, black, or asian, it's considered a bannable offense because th89 is a mod[/QUOTE] I ban for racism because I'm told to. If I was told to ban people for hating furries or Justin Bieber, I'd do that too, but I haven't been so I'm not going to. This forum is full of rampant misogyny, for example, and I don't like it very much, but I asked about it and was told to let it go, so I let it go.

The tables have turned.

It was about why that other particular post was bannable.

[QUOTE=OleWally;25045964]What about a comparison of Caucasians and Asians? Both have high standards of education, yet Asians outperformed Caucasians? Why would that be?[/QUOTE] Not all Asians outperform Caucasians, like not all Europeans outperform Blacks. It's more of a matter of social structure, how figures are reported, and the amount of money involved. It's really not all as black and white (lol puns) as 'Asians are smarter because more of them pass school'

More Asians pass school because their culture and society is different from Western ones

So I can say this " Indianans need to open a casino and steal our hard earned American money and American land they aren't even white" Cause apparently Natives aren't bannable

[QUOTE=MrEndangered;25046497]Not all Asians outperform Caucasians[/quote] Averages [QUOTE=MrEndangered;25046497], like not all Europeans outperform Blacks.[/quote] Averages [QUOTE=MrEndangered;25046497]It's more of a matter of social structure, [/quote] Oh so it's another one of those 'socio-economic' arguments [QUOTE=MrEndangered;25046497]how figures are reported, and the amount of money involved.[/quote] Those rich white racists and their dirty conspiracy money [QUOTE=MrEndangered;25046497]It's really not all as black and white (lol puns) as 'Asians are smarter because more of them pass school'[/QUOTE] I never said more of them pass school, although consider that Asians who come to Europe and North America and attend their respective school systems from birth still out-perform Caucasians.
