Racism: the Dying Regime

[Vineyea]

Racism is just as real as any other social contrivance you want to name. Some of the people here are going to make it a point to be antagonists out of spite and mean spirit. In America it's a right of the people to have their speech uncensored and to that regard you can expect that if there's a volition to be the bearer of preconceived notions, disagreement, and malice one person or another is going to stand up and fill that role.

Your internet alias has more to say about you than does the color of one's skin to say about what they are.

If this were true the word "******" wouldn't be strictly associated with "black" people in the year 2013.

I know more white ******s than ******s of all other races combined and it has nothing to do with their taste in music.

That's irrelevant to the ontology of the judgment. Racism isn't an empirical fact, it's an agreement between peoples. Much like the English language is a social institution on a very fundamental level. We've got this background commonality that's essentially the product of agreement and even though there's no universal law suggesting English ought to be the spoken language of any and all rational beings it has a very real existence in our everyday lives.

Racism will never be obsolete. The words white/black/african-america/hispanic in itself is racism.

African american is the most racist ignorant description of a person I've seen predominantly used in american culture. Calling a black dude an african american is racist, more than likely he ISNT from africa and if that was a legit term for someone from africa a white person could be an african american and thats just not how it works.

The black ethnicity is much much better off than before the civil rights movement. Just because we have a "black" president doesn't mean racism is dead and I am of the firm belief racism will never be dead. The way we have handled the race subject in itself is securing its future in american society.

Until we do not see skin color as a race, racism will never truly die.

This post was filled with racism, look at all those ignorant racist terms!
