Current Events > Are you racist? (Enhanced Edition)

(+) Yeah! (+)

I wanted to do a more detailed version of @HeyPuff's poll with demographic info and 1 per IP. Let's see the real results here. And perhaps find an answer to the age old question of who is more racist?

Asian "semi-racist" here. I don't hate any races but I sometimes stereotype them. I also have racial dating preferences.

I'm white. I'm not racist but I have been the victim of racism many times in my life.

Sort of?

I can't stand people who are ESL and struggle with English. Part of that is 'legit', because of dealing with so many motherfuckers who can't have a proper conversation with people, and especially while dealing with radio communication. A combination of brutal accents, half-spoken english, and a lack of understanding of radio protocol fucking infuriates me.

That and I have absolutely no respect for religions, especially Middle Eastern ones, because of how many problems I have to deal with on a regular basis from those. Christians and their ilk tend to cause lots of political stupidity, like trying to bring prayer into classrooms, or remove science-related studies in favor of bible bullshit, but the goddamn turbans and beards are my biggest problem. Every single goddamn time some guy with a turban and massive beard comes around to a jobsite, we're in trouble. Usually they're already refusing to put on their steel toes, because they're not used to it, but the hard hat refusal, and inability to don a faceshield/air supply system makes them ineligible to be on many jobsites.

There's even special, custom turban hardhats, but I've never met a single person who would wear one, just outright refusing to cooperate. And unless they want to be wearing a full goddamn full air suit at all times, they can't be there. Of course that starts worrying everyone around, "Why are those guys wearing the emergency suits? What's going on?".

The worst part if they know they can pull this shit, because of Canada's Human Rights laws. They'll protect these stupid religions to the death, instead of being sensible and saying "Cut that shit out while you're on a jobsite". The long and the short of it, is we have to absolutely exhaust any and all ways to accommodate them, wasting time and money in equipment, alterations, and they hold us to the letter of that. Here's five examples of when Canada bent over and took it up the ass, and screwed our traditions for someone else's:

you mean like when the government slaughtered the first nations, killed their food sources and stole their land?

oops. i thought you meant stuff that personally impacts the person involved.

No, and I'm white. I have no problem offending people, but racism is equal parts dumb and inefficient. Broad, sweeping generalizations about any group are completely useless and are only noticed because people ignore any example that doesn't conform to their stereotypes. However, even if you put aside the morals though, it's a completely useless and efficient way to go about your life. There is no evidence to suggest that certain races are superior, so why not draw manpower from literally every willing pool of potential manpower? Just look at the Nazis; they forced Einstein to flee from Germany because of idiotic philosophies. How'd that work out for them, again?

#1. Alright, like just about every country, religion, or group of people in history?

#2. As an addition to the first, that's survival of the fittest. If a group of people can't defend themselves, that's what happens - someone takes your shit.

Since I can't stand marathons or the Tour de France, I guess I am.

I'm white, and I'm not racist in the slightest (unless laughing at an occasional racist joke counts)

If you really believed in that, you wouldn't have a problem with immigrants coming in and forcing their culture and religion on you (not that there is any evidence of that, ever).

So you are a Social Darwinist? First of all, the American government did not attack people outright most of the time. They used a combination of treaty breaking, biological warfare, lying, killing, or capturing women and children and backstabbing to take America. Not only that, but they did frequently defend themselves such as when Custer had his 'last stand'. Again though, that is a bullshit argument to be made.

The fact that you support genocide though is really all anyone needs to say to discredit your asinine post.

Nope.

Way to discredit yourself 100% by saying "No evidence of forcing a religion". Besides, I don't care about what some crybaby SJW, or some religious nutbag thinks.

You support genocide and I'm the nutbag, right.

Edit: Also nice job avoiding the hypocrisy of your statement and the ridiculousness of your justification for the genocide of indigenous Americans (which the government admits, the people effected admit, and everyone else admits).

so not a racist assuming you see no race as worst than yours as a general thing.
