Title: My Thing (race related)
Post by: disturbia on July 26, 2010, 09:36:56 PM
Whats my thing with black people. I live in Regina, Saskatchewan. Not a lot of blacks. We have a football team here called the Roughriders, a bunch of NFL cuts and mid range Canadian players.  Anyways, the black American players have come up here for years and act all gangster like they are the shit. They treat people like garbage, they steal liquor at bars, they just make a damn fool of themselves and it has been an issue in this city for years, even reported in the newspaper. They have caused mountains of trouble. So, from a young age this is what I saw as the "typical black person". It is what developed my dislike for them. That is why I am how I am.

Anyways, I understand my view is not shared by many, and thats fine. I just wanted to let it be known why I am how I am, and from this day on I will make no more racist posts.

(even Goodrum, Ron? how can you deny me that?)

As you know, this will be moved to a different board.

But, while someone always as a problem with someone else, it irks me that you put everyone with the same color in the same boat.  It is bullshit.   Everyone is different, and you gotta find that out for yourselves.  There are different Muslims, different Jews, different Christians.  Not all are hardcore religious freaks, not all are liberal. 

Same with races and colors of people.  You can argue that the Roughriders or a majority of them are like that, in your opinions, but judges millions of people over 10 people who get drunk isn't cool. 

Judge someone by how you meet them, and how they are.   It is simple as that.

No such thing as an oriental. The orient is an area not a group of people.

From Wiki,

The term "Oriental" (from the Latin word for "Eastern") was originally used in Europe in reference to the Near East. It was later extended to the rest of Asia, but came to refer to Northeast Asians and Southeast Asians in the 19th and 20th century US, where most Asians were Chinese (and later Koreans, Japanese and Filipino). By the late 20th century, the term had gathered associations in North America with older attitudes now seen as outmoded, and was replaced with the term "Asian" as part of the updating of language concerning social identities.

However, in Europe, use of the term oriental for an east Asian has no negative connotations attached and is commonly used. Note particularly that, in the UK at least, Indian people (for example) are considered Asian but not Oriental, giving credence to the point that the term 'Oriental' now means 'East Asian' rather than any meaning related to the Greenwich Meridian and its colonial links.

Boils down to that blacks have different muscle fiber and require more "nutrients" at specific times.  Nutrient timing could stop this thus getting them out of the catabolic state which puts them in illogical thinking.  More blacks need to carry lunch coolers for this.

"Musilm" is hardly a race. Larget muslim country in the world is Indonesia. By muslim, people generally think arab. And all arabs are not muslims though the vast majority are. Once you dig in (and I have to because of my work), you realize that even the word "arab" doesn't stand for much. There's a lot of hatred between arabs themselves depending on the country, the social status, the religious leanings, etc... Pretty much the same if you talk about Africans (Afro-American are a different issue though I think), people from west, central and east Africa are very different and it gets even more complicated if you get into the french speaking parts and english speaking parts of Africa. Also, immigrants are not generally cream of the crop so we get the worse of those countries and cultures.

yes, because we live in different country, words have different signification.

muslim = algeria/morocco = maghreb

black = cote d ivoire, mali, etc.


the success of an immigration depend on the quality of immigrant.
unfortunately for France, the black and people from maghreb who come in France are only motivated by the social help; and living like parasite.


A new fact in France it that people from maghreb who arrived in France during 70/80's are now complaining about the black.
in fact i think that our black are really different from your "african - american", our black are the zero degre of humanity, no brain, no intelligence, hater, lazy, really violent people, it's something to see.

In Hawaii we always call Asians Orientals, except for Japs whom we call Japs or Nips. When I moved to Southern Cali and used the term Oriental it was like I said Neegar. Now that I'm back in Hawaii I'm so use to saying Asians that when I do I'm asked, "Do you mean Orientals or Japs?

Clearly. Other countries do attract the more ambitious and more educated ones. But not France. I live here too. This country is a magnet for the laziest fucks on the planet. But that's not surprising as French people themselves are not exactly setting a strong example. Lazy country all around. From the 15th of july to 1st of September it's almost impossible to get anything done in this fucking country. Not only the vast majority doesn't want to work but they'llmanage somehow to prevent you from working too if you feel otherwise. We're doomed.

Because there's very few "decent" people here. A simple as it gets. Tired country. Parasites you call them and they are. But if you move up the social ladder don't expect people to be more competent, hard-working, honest, etc...It's the same thing, just disguised a bit better and socially acceptable as it has run through generations already. Hard working people are a hard commodity and you'll find them dispatched a little bit in every line of work. But most people here think that they're country is top notch and that there's no need to change a thing. I constantly work with guys with top colege degrees, guys coming from the best "ecole d'ingenieurs' such as Polytechnique, X, etc...Most of the time, they're just a duplicate of their dear daddy and once they got their degree they're done, they've secured a spot where they're untouchable and they don't give a fuck about anything else but their own interest. Most o fhtem are totally disconnected fromreality and lazy fucks too. They don't want things to change, no more then the ones at the other end of the spectrumwho benefit also from the situation. Only the ones in the middle get screwed.

You guys are mixing two unrelated things, there's a massive difference between race and culture. PC folk don't want you realizing this but it's the truth. Culture makes up 1000 times more of you than race. I don't give a shit about race as it's something people make up like religion. Your delusional if you think there is much genetic difference between races, of course some trivial shit is different, like hair and nose, and pigment, but that's about it. Culture however means the difference, between beating your wife, not washing your hands, stealing, raping, etc. Whites like to pretend like it's something racial, it ain't we have had over 1000 years to get where we are now, and along the way we fucked up alot, and i don't see why we need less developed cultures, fucking up what we took so long to get too.

Ron, I'm a little racist, but I believe I'm equally as critical of my own race as I am of others.  I don't hate anyone.

I've always wondered though, say that there was a race that was blatantly and overwhelmingly good (or bad) in whatever way.  When would it be OK to generalize that race as good or bad?  ???

Call me ignorant, but why is it OK to generalize in almost every other aspect of life, but not based on race?

Because it generally false, races are made up, sure you can hate people with dark skin, but you got issues my friend if you think that makes sense. There been loads of studies to show there is no major genetic difference among races, all genes for race are about 7-20 genes out of thousands. Culture hating though is the best part of life, it's great, I hate american  culture for example. ;D

Your opinion is based on specifically singling out a couple of black people however even that doesn't matter because I'm sure you've seen white people do the same thing over the years. 

Race doesn't determine someone's behavior and if I based my opinion of white people on you, then it wouldn't be a good impression considering how you've attempted suicide, threatened someone's daughter, and being fat and out of shape gambling all day.

Seek mental help.  You excuse is pitiful and I've actually met white people who have a much better excuse for hating black people than you do

Exactly.  I have never encountered a black person who has a problem with it, it's the PC whites that do.  And I agree 100% on your second point.  Its such a ridiculous term. 
I was playing pick-up bball one day and some clown who really didn't belong in the gym was referring to who he was going to pick-up for his team, he used the term "African American guy" in reference to a black guy who was standing among some other white guys.  All the black guys just fell out laughing......we ran him off and he didn't get to play.... ;D

Ron you're a man in the media.  You notice when they arrest someone who is maybe german but also a muslim they call him a muslim, but if he was christian they would call him a german.  The media loves to label people certain ways.  Same thing with the sympathy towards jews.  In the news if a christian spaniard died, the media would just say a spaniard dies.  But if he was jewish they lend sympathy to them and say a jewish man died.

Also you are right there are nice black people, nice asian people etc... but when you are in a black neighborhood and 99% fo the good blacks are at homes, studying, having dinner and on the streets all you see are the 1% that are gansters, selling drugs etc... you then think that's all there is.  You relate things to what you know and see and not the unknown.

But when an American Muslim kills his fellow soldiers (for Allah) they pretend it's irrelevant. Until it's relevant.

Whats my thing with black people. I live in Regina, Saskatchewan. Not a lot of blacks. We have a football team here called the Roughriders, a bunch of NFL cuts and mid range Canadian players.  Anyways, the black American players have come up here for years and act all gangster like they are the shit. They treat people like garbage, they steal liquor at bars, they just make a damn fool of themselves and it has been an issue in this city for years, even reported in the newspaper. They have caused mountains of trouble. So, from a young age this is what I saw as the "typical black person". It is what developed my dislike for them. That is why I am how I am.

Anyways, I understand my view is not shared by many, and thats fine. I just wanted to let it be known why I am how I am, and from this day on I will make no more racist posts.

(even Goodrum, Ron? how can you deny me that?)

You mean they act the same way the Aboriginals here do?

As you know, this will be moved to a different board.

But, while someone always as a problem with someone else, it irks me that you put everyone with the same color in the same boat.  It is bullshit.   Everyone is different, and you gotta find that out for yourselves.  There are different Muslims, different Jews, different Christians.  Not all are hardcore religious freaks, not all are liberal. 

Same with races and colors of people.  You can argue that the Roughriders or a majority of them are like that, in your opinions, but judges millions of people over 10 people who get drunk isn't cool.

Bullshit. Take my wife as an example. She's blond-haired, blue-eyed. Every time she has been assaulted/molested/harrassed in the street it was done by fucking Moroccan scum. So, according to you, she should merrily walk into a group of those degenerate apes again? Just to give them a fair chance? Get the fuck out of here with your PC bullshit. Some cultures are absolute garbage, and need to be treated as such: incinerated.

Wu-Tang isn't muslim. There are members who are five percenters but they believe that the black man is god. A.L.L.A.H. arm, leg, leg, arm, head. They also believe like the Nation of Islam that the white man was created by a scientist named Dr. Yakub. It's all a bunch of nonsense and far from traditional islam. It's funny how so many people don't pick up on all the 5% references when listening to Rza, Raekwon and Ghostface in paticular.
I don't even think the NOI believes that anymore. Yeah, a crazy scientist created the white man a few trillion yrs ago ::). So, before the universe existed a black scientist existed to create people on a planet that hasn't been created, let alone the universe itself. And the fact that W. Faud, or however his name was spelled who established the NOI wasn't even black in the first place, but a mix of Polynesian and white. Which is why came up with the term "Asiatic Black Man", which soo many rappers, like Big Daddy Kane would quote, not thinking that ,"Hey, my ancestors came from Africa, not Asia. And there is no such thing as 'Asiatic Black Man'."

The Wu has 5%er language thru out their rhymes, but they are seperate from NOI, being a 5%er is not about language, but more about philosophy. And in theory, in terms of interpersonal relationships, they tend to be on point---positive treatment of oneself, mate, women, man, community.

Yeah, it can get annoying hearing "God", 15x in one sentence, like dudes saying "ya' mean?" or "you know what I'm saying?", or "...At the end of the day...."

Thanks, it's kinda hard to explain the 5% stuff, but wikipedia can do it better than me. I've been around some of the dudes, good people, but rough around the edges. You can grab bits and pieces of their philosophy and apply it to your life. Some of these dudes are true thugs, but then when sit down and talk to them, you realize that you and them have alot in common, but you come away having a deep discussion, and a feeling of positivity about you. And some of those mofos are crazy, talking that mess one min. and smoking crack or doing PCP the next.

But, I tell you one thing, when Erykah Badu and Outkast 1st came out, they were referencing Nuwabians, led by Maliki (or Malichi) Z. York. It was a cult based in Atlanta, hence the title album ATLiens, my room mate in college fell into this cult, giving money to this man so he can build glass pyramids in Atlanta. All that referencing spaceships and aliens and Hollow Earth shit, comes from him.
And fat people are called Flugorods, they were created (here we go again) by some scientist (always some scientist, with no documented work ::)).

Maybe its the crack and PCP that causes the "scientist" theory to come in?  i remeber all that ATLiens stuff, and was very confused by it.

One thing I really miss about the service was the chance to sit and talk on a deeper level with people that there is no way I would have come into contact with in that context any other way.  For example had a very good friend who talked to me at length about where he grew up in Detroit, seeing friends get shot, etc...  and when I met another guy from Detroit and told him the area the first guy was from, he even talked about how bad it was.  Here was a hick from the mtn's of NC, 18-19 yrs old, talking with a black guy from the inner city.  The service was a great cultural experience for me because you quickly realize that there are really good, really bad and everything in between in regards to people.  A lot of guys, black and white, only associated with their race, but I really think playing sports gave me a lot of common ground to mix with everybody.

there maybe a possibility to to your first statement, although, I think they grabbed that from the NOI.

I agree. And I've talked a lot with former servicemen, and since I am from a military town (Annapolis), I come in contact with middies, and Marines, and enlisted Army as well. But from my experience in college, I went to Morgan St U, which is a historically black college, and believe me, the theory that black people are monolithic is a misnomer. Depending on where you were from in the US, there were different ways of thinking. And then there was the Caribbean way, which could be broken down further, the African way of thinking, which can be broken down into E, W, N, S, and central, and Muslim, Christian, other, Etc. Peeps from the Southern US thought different, the women from the Southern US knew how to cook and treat their men. Women from California, smiled a lot and were chipper. Women from NYC and PG county, Md beefed, because they were stylish and fine as all get out. And talking to all these types of people, showed similarities, yet differences.
My, freshman yr, somebody asked me why I was in the library a lot, and I said "I am looking for truth", when then had a deep discussion.

I met that man about 2 yrs ago, he is attorney now, and he ask me was I still lookig for truth. I told him, "No, truth has always been here, the only reason why we look for it, is because we cover it up because we are either ashamed of it, or we don't want to face it. We are scared of ourselves, what we've become or haven't become. And that truth has always stared us in the face."

religion is ridiculous? WELL,

 does every religion have some 'members' that are hypocrits and do not follow the moral guidelines? yes

 does every religion seem to have some kind of flaw in its description of the nature of reality? yes.. to a certain extent.  

does every religion seem to have at leats one or two 'moral guidelines' that dont have any logical explanation behind why you should follow it/them? seems like it


however, the idea of religion, a group of people gathering to worship God and morality, that is not ridiculous at all.


and for the most, every religion is founded on the same principle: one god, love your neighbor.



i think you frustration with religion stems from the history of religion on this planet and the inability of any religion to set up a moral system free of error and an accurate description of reality to go along with it.


however.. you have to understand that the infinite can not be accurately put into finite terms, and recognizing this shoudl allow you to realize.. the impossibility of religion to express the nature of God.  which i think is what your looking for, maybe..

 It is an unscientific mind that generalizes to such an extent, and a particulary weak one that infuses that generalization with as an amorphic quality as 'hate'.

Change your language and you change your life.  Use 'seems to me' instead of 'is' when describing your world.  For example,
1. 'Blacks seem to me to be inferior' versus 'Blacks are inferior'.
2. 'Jews seem to me to control everything' versus 'Jews control everything'.
3. 'Women seem like sluts to me' versus 'Women are sluts'.
3. 'Terrorists hate our freedoms' versus 'Terrorists seem to hate our freedoms to me'
4. 'Jesus is the truth' versus 'Jesus seems to be the truth to me'
5. 'Liberals are communists' versus 'Liberals seem like communists to me'
6. 'The fetus is a baby' versus 'The fetus seems lke a baby to me'
7. Insert your own predjudice here____________________ ____________

It's difficult for humans to talk in abstractions.  Our central nervous systems seem to "need" to encode a static based reality where we can say this 'is' or 'isnt'.  The nature of our universe appears to be quite different though.  We appear to be in constant change or flux even on a sub-atomic level.  To say something 'is' or 'isn't' appears relative only to the known information at the time.

Seems like I offended you and I really didn't mean to. Sometimes I speak my mind a little too much and offend people but. I just see the world for what it is. I'd love for all that christian jazz to be true (love your neighbor etc etc)but from what I see it's ridiculous. I'm sure there is a god out there but it's certainly not anything that would affiliate itself with the joke that is christianity.  You call me arrogant but you believe that this god we thought up is the one who runs all in the universe. That seems a bit more arrogant than me. To think we can even understand a god to me is stupid. If there is anything that put all this together on such a complex level I highly doubt we can even understand it. to think we know it all (when the absolute fact is no one does) is a lot more arrogant than my takign a jab or two at some silly religion used to control people just like you.


BTW I'd rather die than quit smoking weed. It takes away the stress I feel when I think of how ugly humanity is. Funny how you try to make it sound like my marijuana use makes me some kind of scummy person.

there s one problem with budhha's teaching. Well, two in fact.

When people want to kill you, buddhism is useless. Too bad in real life some people sometimes want to kill you. Maybe it didnt happen to that guy who was worshiped in some part of the world, but everywhere else people tend to want to kill you wether you like it or not.

Buddhists got genocided in tibet, the dalai lama stated that he regrets he didnt have an army, tibetans think the dalai lama abandonned em. Nobody in the world cares about buddhism but rich white people who think it's trendy but have no idea how things are working out there for people with less education and money than them. Nobody moved a finger to help tibet cause nobody took em seriously. Basically buddhism doenst help surviving. Lot of good stuff in it, but the same can be found in most other religions or psychology.

James,

don't give up on higher ideals like loving others and doing the right thing. the world is a crummy place because people don't act on these principles. if everyone followed the tenants of christianity (and some other religions) instead of twisting them to justify their own poor behaviour, the world would be a better place. you can't lament over other people not treating others with respect and kindness if you're not willing to make the commitment yourself. it has to start with each individual.

I sympathize with your struggle and urge you not to lose hope. despite your occasional dabble in narcotics I truly don't think less of you or that you are a bad person. I admit I used the stygma normally associated with these activities to sting your credibility and thus erode your argument. I believe in the pursuit of truth and doing the right thing. I imagine you believe in something similar. as for your problems, maybe drugs aren't the best way to deal with them. but that's for you to decide. again, I wish you the best

"yes, but the majority of them....."

6 billion people on the planet but folks can proudly claim to know, "the majority of them"  ::)

Betty Frieden (an American feminist) claims that ALL men are potential rapists.  Assuming that Betty has personally met 10,000 men in her lifetime and that half of people on the planet are men, Betty is making these conclusions based on less that .00001% of information.

Assume that Hitler met 1000 Jews in his early formative years.  There are roughly 300 million Jewish peopke in the world.  So he based his conclusions of inferiority off of .0003% of information.

Roughly 1.4 Billion "African" people. How many have you personally met to make claims about the whole?

Roughly 1.4 Billion "Chinese" people. How many have you personally met to make claims about the whole?

Roughly 900 Million "Indian" people. How many have you personally met to make claims about the whole?

Roughly 325 Million "American" people. How many have you personally met to make claims about the whole?

Roughly 1.5 Billion "Muslim" people. How many have you personally met to make claims about the whole?

Roughly 250 Million "Eastern European" people. How many have you personally met to make claims about the whole?

Title: Are you a racist?
Post by: Stark on July 29, 2010, 08:55:21 AM
To answer this question we must have a look at what the definition of racisms is:
I copy pasted text from Wikipedia which defines racism as:
Racism is the belief that the genetic factors which constitute race are a primary determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race.[1] Racism's effects are called "racial discrimination.

Now have a look at yourself, can you truly say you are NOT racist?
I bet you can’t.
Everybody is racist to some extent, and you know something? It is okay.
Don’t buy into the bullshit the tree-hugging hippies and political correct mad liberals and conservatives like to preach, we are ALL racists to some degree.
And I have a strong suspicion we always were racist, the only difference is, in today’s times it is not social acceptable to not like a specific “race” or even
Harbour the slightest suspicion about a specific race.

I can certainly say that every time I see a bad driver on Irish roads it happens to be a Nigerian driver, I have asked around and others have said the same thing.
Which leads me to believe that ALL Nigerians are bad drivers – and I know that this assumption is completely illogical, I know that somewhere out there HAS to
Be a sane and normal driving Nigerian – I certainly haven’t found him/her yet but I given the fact that we have around a couple of thousand Nigerians living in this country
Chances are slim that every one of them cannot drive.
On the other hand I have asked an Australian friend who has no problem with Nigerian drivers in his country but believes that Asian drivers are the worse.
Have I ever called somebody the N word – never to their face but in the safety of my car while passing another Nigerian who is obviously out to kill me and my
Family many times, it rolls of your lips so easy and you are not fully aware what you say at the present time, only later you surprise yourself and think: God damn that was racist.
But how do I know they are Nigerians? They don't have the Nigerian sticker flag on their car, nor do they look much different to many other african immigrants we have in Ireland.

I am a firm believer that you should always be true to yourself, does it make sense to lie to yourself and say to yourself: I LOVE Nigerians and I think they are fantastic
Drivers? Absolutely not.
But what you should always do is to reason with yourself, don't just buy into stuff but challenge your believes and argue with yourself.

Neither. I never hang out with (groups of) people and am by myself as much as I can be. Getbig is the only place where I willingly come to socialize, cause it's a global platform that has very interesting people posting in it.

To really answer your question though, if the blacks are exhibiting stereotypical behaviour (kicking things, cussing etc), of course I'd avoid them, same as I'd avoid the other bunch if they are showing obvious signs of being a violent gang. It would be foolish to expect anything good from them - no different than a black guy avoiding KKK members dressed up in their attire with guns and such in their hands, obviously on the prowl. But if they are dressed "normally" and seem OK, then I wouldn't have a problem.

But I didn't. I'm not avoiding the Black gang because they're Black - I'm avoiding them because they're a gang. The gang aspect overrides the race of it's members, which means I'd avoid the bunch equally regardless of whether they are Black or White or whatever.
