is making fun of peoples inteligence/educational level/literacy/english ability OK, or is that as bad as racism?
I know I do it, you know, pick-up on peoples little smelling pisstakes (sic) and spoken errors (IRL as well as online)... it amuses me... when I make mistakes as well (so that justifies it then)... but it hurts some people's feelings. Drives my wife up the wall, but then she's dyslexic.
What's my point? I'm trying to say that I'm by no means perfect, but we should at least aim to treat each other with respect. In all the arenas that we may differ in.
I'm not saying be 'colourblind'. How daft would it be to try and pretend that we are all the same, to ignore the amazing diversity & creativity that our differences afford us.
Also, of course people feel the need to create groups that advance one section of society (I'm refering to AK's post), but this only in an attempt to redress the balance; to counter centuries of inequality, racism & abuse of global proportions. Get over it, your white American (?) body probably doesn't need any more priviledges. At the very least, you have access to a computer & the internet!
It's like Mothers' day. We don't need a kids' day, because (hopefully this is true for most, but I know not all), as my Dad used to say "every day is kids' day!"
Er, yeah, that's what I think, anyway[/i]

Guys, we all have bad feelings towards other people, it's natural, and we are playing a game of world conquest.....however, dehumanizing others for any reason is a slippery slope.

Remember Rwanda, it only took a couple of years of one side being on the radio and television calling the other side roaches before the machetes were ordered.

Like I said it's a slippery slope, and to my Puerto Rican friend, I'm not sure that standing up for yourself makes you a pussy, you should try it sometime, you might find that you like it.

I say ban the fuckers, Racism is the only thing I'm fascist about.

To the racist in question:

We're living in times when we can't afford to make others insignificant, because as we fight with one another the wealthy few are taking what's left in our coffers, wake up! If you don't get banned I think you should really try to figure out just what you're going to do with all that bottled up negativity before it eats you up.

ok, so after this, please everyone tell me just how rediculous my view on the whole stereotyping as a form of racism debate is. But honestly, i don't see the big deal, really, at all. I understand entirely the past that is has, and how it was really quite horrible. But in this day and age, i hear a lot of people say, "i can't believe how racist people are". Also, i mostly hear this from the Black community. However, when it comes down to racism, it is embedded in Black society. Its actually rediculous, the local rap stations do not acknowledge hockey as a sport, and i have never once heard a score given, and why would that be? Because hockey is stereotypically a white sport. I'm not saying i'm against stereotyping, because i'm not, infact, i do it quite often. I just don't see why everyone can't deal with it. It is not a stereotype because someone just made it up, stereotypes exist because people who are the same in some facet do the same things, and then get teased about it. The point i'm trying to make is, stereotyping happens a lot, but the only people i see who get all bent out of shape about it, are Black people who are calling White people absurdly and inheritently racist. I just don't understand how they can be so blind as to not see the racism that they dish out, and also don't understand why no one will stand up and take a stand on this issue of how absurd it is becoming. I do not hate anyone based on anything but their own personalities / actions, however, i'm not going to lie when i say that in most cases, i tend to find White people more appealing to befriend then Black people, but for no other reason then their persona's, ideas, and actions. Its not stereotyping, its just my feelings on that individual person. Anyways, i think stereotyping is becoming a really huge deal, especially in the racial spectre of society, and its something that i think personally should be dropped, cause everyone should just be able to deal with it. The only ones who should complain, are those who do not sterotype in any way shape or form, and since there is perhaps no one who is completely nuetral in every situation, we don't have to worry about anyone being all to mad.

coolestguy, you are aptly named sir. I too have been deeply disturbed by the lack of hockey scores on local rap stations and its high time someone had the courage to stand up to the powers that be on this important issue. While we are on the subject, I was watching Telemundo not long ago and saw not one update on the Westminster Kennel Club dogshow, in spite of the fact that the hotly-contested toy poodle division was competeing at that moment.

Each other what we need to survive together alive.
