Depends what racism actual means. If we think if racism as just stereotyping, having thoughs in our heads about how people from each race normally behave, for example in what music they like, then everybody is a racist.
If we think of racism as actually treating somebody differently to how you would if you did not know their race, or were "raceless", then some people are racist, others are not. Most people will have racist thoughts by this definition, to some extend at least, even if they are not negative thoughts. Some people do not act on these attitudes, they merely hold them as beliefs. Others actively discriminate between different races based on these thoughts, whether they are true or not.
I am not racist I am culturalist. I don't like black gangster culture. I find a difference between a man of color and a nigger at least in my philosophy. A nigger is a person (usually living in low income areas) who is all around stupid, ignorant, criminal in nature, lazy as shit, and just a bad person. There is a complete difference between these things. So is it wrong for me to strongly dislike someone who is stupid, ignorant, or a criminal?
The options for this poll are inadequate.
My answer would be "Yes, very - but it has little to do with 'hate.'"
I occasionally have impulsive racist thoughts if I feel that someone is getting special perks,treatment, fringe benefits etc...because of the color of their skin....
When I think about it, I've got things pretty good so I should have no qualms, after all when I am alone, I don't have to make any compromises what so ever...if I could find a pretty girl that did not make me compromise a whole hell of a lot...that would be straight sweet!!!!
No, sometimes I joke around with races but, I really don't care about what race someone is. We are all humans, so we have that in common. We need to love, not hate
It's hard not to be racist when so many racial stereotypes are so overwhelmingly true. I realize it's all cultural and not genetic, though.
Race is not something I've ever considered! We don't here in Ireland, it's more to do with religion. I went to boarding school with all colours and religions from all around the world, and don't see why anyone would be prejudiced against others. Generally, I like everyone until they are nasty to me and we whites like a suntan so I reckon we are subconsciously jealous of our dark skinned friends.
i like blacks, but i hate niggers.
i like hispanics, buti hate beaners.
i like asians, but i hate gooks.
i like every race. but i hate parts of any race when they act a certain way case of there ethnicity
Definitely not racist. I like to think of myself as someone who spreads light to the world - I love people of all creeds and backgrounds!
Except Nigerians. Fuck Nigerians.
Just fuck 'em. That's why.
You're not Nigerian anyway. What do you mean "us"?
But anyway, I really just want to spend my life spreading peace and equality to the world, to everybody from every background. Except Nigerians.
And Croatians. Fucking Croatians. Gross.
Judgements based on race aren't always negative like black men are well endowed, Russians enjoy vodka (I will marry a Russian) Cuban women are bad ass, Germans are great with business, a really common stereotype is the idea of Asian parenting.
Judging a person based on race isn't always, "Yikes, you're brown. I am afraid of you." So everyone's a little racist...
Racism continues to exist due to stereotypes confirming their stereotype.
I think almost everyone has thoughts and stereotypes about other races or even their own which is normal. There are no thought crimes yet at least, but acting on those thoughts to harm someone or deny them a change simply because they are white or black half Mongolian, is when it becomes wrong. Do I avoid walking by groups of ghetto looking black kids? Yes, but Id also avoid walking by a group of punky goth white kids, for the same reason. I don't judge so much on race as on personal behavior and appearance and whether or not someone seems a threat.
I'm not racist but I hate Indian people they are usually smelly, disgusting, greedy, and perverted. But lots of Indian women are gorgeous so it must only be the men I discriminate against
Nope. Nigger pieces of shit are pretty much the only racists in this world.
You know what i think im alot racist to black people sorry but its just my thing >_<
I hate all people , they have to prove themselves first, but I give whites a free pass because there are 7 times more blacks in jail and 5 times more hispanics in jail than whites, it's like whites are born to succeed where other races have to overcome there roots
i fuckin cant stand beige people.....and australian aboriginies...cant stand em
im only kind of racist aganist irish american people and thats only some ill give anyone a chance you know what i mean
I'm not really bothered by the race but on how they act. It's like me with children, I don't hate them because they are children, I hate them because they are annoying and messy.
Racism is just about the stupidest thing ever. How can you make the decision to judge an ENTIRE group of people based on the actions of a few idiots who happen to be of the same race? It just baffles me.
there are two things i hate in this world people who are intolerant of other peoples nationalities and the dutch!
i don't hate races. but race is a bit more than just skin deep sometimes.
I admit to being a little racist. I'm quite patronizing to people that call themselves white.
It depends on the parents coloring and the grandparents' coloring too. Let's say you are blond and your wife is a brunette. The chances of your son being born with blond hair depends on the predominance of blond hair between all of the grandparents.
ive had some racist thoughts but now as i get older i think that if we each had a relative of the race that we didnt like we would be better off because you cant hate family..
i wish i had an asian relative and an african american relative.
"Not really, no"
To me it's not about race but about socioeconomic status, education, and behavior.
No opinion regarding the first three points of your profile, i had 2 friends who learned computer languages...I read about 3 pages in an HTML book and returned it, I have zero fondness for computer languages...about helping people, only if its someone I know and it does not require much effort on my part...if I start having to struggle mentally.. I change the subject or something, if that does not work I start whining that I can't think about it now, maybe later...and then later never comes.
After 40 years on an assembly line if you want to group with your fellows just to be with each other or get rich, or whatever it is, fine with me...I just don't want to invade your hangouts...because I go out a lot and am straight unable to sense these things...I am clueless to how people feel around me...but I get the feeling that I should not go back to Dan's...so I'll try to keep on remembering not to go back there...I've found another place I prefer anyway...
I agree that people should be free to be free to be with whoever they want to be with, and not be with people who they don't want to be with...
as long as they don't try to run the people who don't feel like them out of town...
As long as I'm getting an ample share of loot from somewhere (ie...social security)...I've got almost everything I need to be happy...a nice looking woman, probably no older than 30 something, who would not make me have to give or compromise a lot of myself to be with her, would be ideal, but other than that, I'm pretty happy...
