INCEPTlON 07/14/17 2:54:42 PM #1:	And I don't mean hating specific people for their specific qualities. I mean generally hating a group of people for the stereotypes associated with that race. Nope, that's just hating some people Yes, you are hating them for the qualities associated with that race and that is racism. View Results Was curious to get your opinions on the matter. Met a white dude today who really hated other white guys. I just tamed the fire of that conversation by telling him that it's usually white dudes that end up as serial killers.. Pleased him well enough and he moved on without instigating further conversation. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R5Dkkb4Q0yA --- 124 Gurus were better than me in BGE 2015 contest!

foolm0r0n 07/14/17 4:17:22 PM #5:	Racism is when you hate a race from a position of power, so it doesn't really work if you are on an equal level with the ones you hate. But if you're especially powerful among your race then it could work. That's why the Chappelle clip works at least. --- _foolmo_ 2 + 2 = 4 <cite>foolm0r0n posted [p:882915284] in Is it raci...

Logicblade 07/14/17 4:42:59 PM #6:	Racism is about hatred of the other. Period. Is someone without power who calls someone a jigaboo, or some other slang any less racist because they have no power? Absolutely not. And serial killers come in all shapes and sizes, everyone has the capacity for being shitty. --- Spare me your obsolete empathy The voice of sympathy means nothing to me <cite>Logicblade posted [p:882916717] in Is it raci...

BowserCuffs 07/14/17 5:39:14 PM #10:	It's quite possible to internalize societal and institutionalized racism against your own race, yeah. Which is unfortunate because it often just affirms the racists' belief, in the "even THEY can see it!" sense. It's also possible to be homophobic and homosexual, transphobic and transgendered, etc. I don't really know enough about the situation you described to comment on it though. Generally speaking, if you feel guilty about your skin color, you've got internalized racism (of the "bigoted based on skin color" sort, not necessarily the "societal discrimination against" sort, just so we're clear) --- Everyone's best is different. You can't always be the best, but you can always do your best. <cite>BowserCuffs posted [p:882919985] in Is it raci...

paperwarior 07/14/17 5:46:03 PM #11:	You can have beliefs against your own race that are functionally identical to racists not of your race. Practically all racists have an idea of "good ones" anyway. --- "God Hand is the ultimate expression of the joy of humanity, specifically the punching part of the joy of humanity."-Shigeru Miyamoto <cite>paperwarior posted [p:882920334] in Is it raci...

KingBartz 07/14/17 6:03:12 PM #12:	The core idea behind tribalism (of which racism is a type) is the belief, either conscious or subconscious, that your group is superior to others. So, feeling that your group is inferior to others doesn't quite fit the definition. Self-hatred is a term what I have heard used to describe those feelings --- BKSheikah correctly guessed which years are more popular than others on this video game website.
