Either some of my posts are getting deleted or I've contributed links to threads with the accuracy of buck-shot in a tornado.
Michael Sandel tries to make a discussion about race and national policy be something other than a degenerate exercise in vanity. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AUhReMT5uqA | ||

Every race plays a part in racism. No one is innocent.....the problem lies in that we all feel personally persecuted based on our race. It's hard not to hate those that hate you, but what does return racism accomplish? You can not fight racism with more racism. No one race is innocent, no matter how we view ourselves as the victims. It's all perception based upon our own experiences, and we have ALL encountered hate based on our color.
Perception of our own knowledge and experiences. Are you one that stops the loop of thinking, or are you one that just throws that hatred right back? There is only one way to stop this violent cycle, and it's to be the bigger man and set the example. If you don't, you just fuel it further. | ||

And to anyone for whom this may be relevant, I'd just like to add you shouldn't become discouraged when making your stand seems to cause more problems than it's worth. There have been numerous times in p99, both guild and parties, where I've been accused of overreacting to light hearted or joking racism... or even the idiosyncratic use of words whose connotation is universally negative.
Stamp it out where you can and if your company doesn't respect you enough or care about having you around enough for them to change the way they speak then perhaps you have something better to do. | ||
