BruceVC Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 ."sorry its just you throw the word around so indiscriminately" *sigh* You still don't get it. "Volo can you give me your definition of racism?" Pre judging and/or hating someone based on their race. "I dont think you understand what it means" I udnerstand it better than SJW nazis who believe racism is 'white person saying anything negatie about non white person'. Or 'white perosn' for short. L0L; Okay you do know what it means ...fair enough But how I am pre-judging the Chinese....I have experience ? And I dont hate them....so is it racism? And you know I take this seriously ....so if I am being racist I want to know ?

aluminiumtrioxid Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 (edited) But how I am pre-judging the Chinese....I have experience ? And I dont hate them....so is it racism? And you know I take this seriously ....so if I am being racist I want to know ? "I find the tactics employed by Chinese actors in my country to be morally reprehensible, and I'm somewhat wary towards Chinese businesses in general" is a perfectly reasonable (dare I say, justified) statement to make. "LOLOLO Chinese people speak with a weird accent, this white person mocking them is HILARIOUS" is pretty damn racist. Hah, racism. Pretty clear to me he's not speaking of hating the yellow devils but, alright, heh. "I can't be racist, I don't hate black people! In fact, I have many black friends!" Did he say that in the post earlier? Given China's engagement in Africa recently I just took it as that in his post on trusting them. Or not sure what the heck that is to mean to me, other than I posted the same earlier today, heh. It is to mean that people can totally be racist (or exhibit behavior that is, for all practical purposes, indistinguishable from racism) without hating anybody in question. Heck, some of my friends do it all the time. But I prefer to call a spade a spade.

No its common to laugh at a joke that has accents, laughing at something doesnt mean you think of it in a serious light? But again I dont think I was racist but I dont want to come across as racist ...very important distinction But anyway thanks for your opinion, its okay we can agree to disagree "Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss” John Milton "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” - George Bernard Shaw "What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived.

Namutree Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 (edited) "LOLOLO Chinese people speak with a weird accent, this white person mocking them is HILARIOUS" is pretty damn racist. Eh, I dunno. I tend to think of racism as racial bigotry. Nothing bigoted about finding the accent of other nation's people amusing. I mock the accent of southerners all the time; am I racist against the American south? EDIT: I also mock the Canadian accent too.
