Being Prejudice On White Men?

[makaveli121212]

i dont see how its really unfair if they are equally smart...but in many cases especially at the university of michigan minoritiies have gotten excepted with worse numbers than some white students...that is unfair in my mind...giving spots to people based on thier ethnicity rather than their smarts shouldnt be...jewpin i think youre way off here...i can see how you can be ashamed of the white race because of those certain things, but then you must feel equally proud of many of the things the whiteman brought into the world right? not only that, but it isnt like any race is perfect...every race from chinese to blacks to latinos all have their things to be ashamed of, but you just dont look at the bad, you have to look at the good too...thats why i feel that the whiteperson has done equally as many good things as bad things and shouldnt be criticized just for the bad things

Maka, that case at Michagan is the thing that spawned this whole affirmative action thing, but I know a little bit about it...what happened was there was a black guy and a white guy, and the white guy had slightly better grades (but very slightly), and the black guy got in because Michagan decided they needed more cultural diversity. I'm not taking a stand, because I feel both ways, but that's what happened...yeah.

(back on topic)

White people did ruin a lot of shit but whose to say if there were more blacks back then that whites wouldnt have been slaves and all the shit we(the whites) fucked up woulda been done by the blacks

(on a lighter side) lol if we had been the minority maybe it would be cool if the whites talked ebonics and grabbed there enourmous penises every .00001 seconds

The logical consequences of this are clear. Since we are required to believe that the only explanation for non-White failure is White racism, every time a non-White is poor, commits a crime, goes on welfare, or takes drugs, White society stands accused of yet another act of racism. All failure or misbehavior by non-Whites is standing proof that White society is riddled with hatred and bigotry. For precisely so long as non-Whites fail to succeed in life at exactly the same level as Whites, Whites will be, by definition, thwarting and oppressing them. This obligatory pattern of thinking leads to strange conclusions. First of all, racism is a sin that is thought to be committed almost exclusively by White people. Indeed, a black congressman from Chicago, Gus Savage, and Coleman Young, the black mayor of Detroit, have argued that only White people can be racist. Likewise, in 1987, the affirmative action officer of the State Insurance Fund of New York issued a company pamphlet in which she explained that all Whites are racist and that only Whites can be racist. How else could the plight of blacks be explained without flirting with the possibility of racial inequality?

Although some blacks and liberal Whites concede that non-Whites can, perhaps, be racist, they invariably add that non-Whites have been forced into it as self-defense because of centuries of White oppression. What appears to be non-White racism is so understandable and forgivable that it hardly deserves the name. Thus, whether or not an act is called racism depends on the race of the racist. What would surely be called racism when done by Whites is thought to be normal when done by anyone else. The reverse is also true.

Examples of this sort of double standard are so common, it is almost tedious to list them: When a White man kills a black man and uses the word "******" while doing so, there is an enormous media uproar and the nation beats its collective breast; when members of the black Yahweh cult carry out ritual murders of random Whites, the media are silent.

"Black pride" is said to be a wonderful and worthy thing, but anything that could be construed as an expression of White pride is a form of hatred. It is perfectly natural for third-world immigrants to expect school instruction and driver's tests in their own languages, whereas for native Americans to ask them to learn English is racist.

Blatant anti-White prejudice, in the form of affirmative action, is now the law of the land. Anything remotely like affirmative action, if practiced in favor of Whites, would be attacked as despicable favoritism.

Pretty much, all of this, is being pointed to this topic. That's it's going too far. And they're using this to exploit "White Pride" and not to feel bad. So, how far is too far? Can you really be proud and not racist, or is it all some sham or what...

i dont think any whiteman this day and age should have to pay the consequences for what other whitmen did way before they were born

Agreed.

Just as I think that black people trying to bank off of misdeeds against their ancestors are totally in the wrong.

We are who we are, not who our forefathers were, and not who their ancestors were. Besides, not all white people have anything to do with slavery, ever, even in their family line. (We've traced my own back far enough to have proven that at least my own family line has never owned slaves.) Just as I know not all black people had ancestors that were slaves. This "my people" bullcrap is stupid in ways words cannot even scratch at.

In this day and age, it doesn't even matter where your family originates from. America is the only country where a poor black boy can become a rich white girl (Michael Jackson).

Yeah. Like, I hate it how people discriminate against Germans today because of what the Nazis did. Hell, I hate Nazis more than most of this forum, and I hold nothing against the Germans of today (unless, of course, they're racist). My Grandfather probably got in a bar fight with some dude 50 years ago. No call for that dude to come find me and punch me out.

[UltimateSoul]

racism is a disease. if we are to have a society in which we are free from racism, it is absolutely necessary that every form of it is eradicated. if we are to live otherwise, we are only setting ourselves up for further racial hatred.

Yeah, very true. Luckily, that doesn't really happen that often. (If you look, Germany has one of the best economies in the world, so apparently, other countries are still trading with them.)

@ UltimateSoul: Yes, exactly! If racial preference is shown, than discrimination is also present. You can't have one without the other.

I haven't looked through all the messages, so if I am repeating something that someone else said, I am sorry.

The "ancestral" white man was enslaved the "ancestral" black man. That is over and done with. I am not my ancestor and you (a black man) are not your ancestor.

(Will say more later)

thats exactly what i said on the first page...i know you said you didnt read it all...but great minds think alike

Think about a society without racism... think about it.... Who would be apart of this society? The only way for racism to not exist, is to have no races. In this society (the one were thinking about) the term "white" and "black" wouldn't exist; and I don't mean in terms of colors.

Racism is only present in societies that are better off, like the United States.

Both my older brothers served missions for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints in Brazil. For those of you that don't know the details, they go and live in some foreign place for 2 years to preach gospel doctrine. Anyway, they said that racism doesn't even exist down there. Brown? Black? White? No one cares.
