Race/Rant

[Answers]

So are you saying that if a person has dark skin such as a "black" person, s/he is incapable of creating anything like the "European culture" just because of the color of their skin?

You're confusing skin colour with race. Trinitron makes a fair point and all facts back him up.

Well I'm definitely glad to see some glimmer of light for this forum. Only problem is, the people who need the help won't listen (allegory of the cave, anyone?) That goes beyond race; why do you think some of these clowns keep coming back with the SAME DAMN QUESTIONS about girls that we answer time andtime again? And people wonder why the best posters are so harsh/sarcastic sometimes.

Anyways, good luck to all the enlightened posters (you know who you are) trying to educate the ignorant, but I'm done. I don't suffer fools lightly.

P.S. To Triniton and Answers, how about doing some research on the rise of civilizations and the shift to agricultural societies and their long-term effects. If that sounds a bit too daunting of a task, how about leaving the cultural observations to the educated, eh?

I'm not going to get into an argument about Races only saying there are differences beyond skin colour. All the fastest men in the world are Black Africans decent. BTW shifting to argricultural societies has little to do with intelligence.

about time for that lock

The threads always get locked when a white person says something. African Americans can talk all day about how they're better athletes, smoother with women. black is beautiful....but when a white person says anything favorable to their own race....RACISM!!!! close the thread..

Hey! It's color.

Hey! It's color.

If you want to get into a spelling debate its color in the US, colour in Europe. :yes:

"All the fastest men in the world are of African Decsent"?

So, all of smartest people in the world are of European or Asian descent?

Is it OK to point out the good attributes of "minorities" but improper to do so of the "majority"?

Yeah, I was being careful what to say. Point I was making is there are differences between races and its racist to point out White strong points so I pointed out Black strong points. BTW (to balance the argument) the worlds strongest men are White!

Some people believe in the fairy tale that it's only skin colour thats the difference between races while completely ignoring all facts.

 

[Mr. Wolf]

Absolutely.. Black people are different. Further more, black people from Cuba are different than Black people from Brazil.. To say that they are the same is ignorant.. Heck, Black people from Detroit are different that Black people from Los Angeles.. There is even difference of some noticeable degree within towns.

Equality. I'd hit this subject as well. Black people are not equal to White people in the United States. Due to education, and then preference of White workers over Black workers by the work force, plus countless other factors.. Thus, it is ignorant to say that Black people have same opportunity as White people.. True, Black people can achieve the same things, but it will be much harder.

Now. Black people are different that White people. Black is beautiful, especially small Black women. I find them more attractive than White ladies.

What???!! Trinitron was just regurgitating what I said to Mr. Wolf. Reread the entire thread.

 

[Mr. Wolf]

That's total bullshyt. Black people have the same educational opportunities as whites. If the schools in your neighborhoods aren't up to par, fix them. Quit having a culture that embraces ignorance. Quit telling kids that it's only cool if you're a sports star or a rapper. Quit telling them that if you're educated you're acting "white"...don't give me this "we don't have the same opportunities" crap

If that's the case, how come asians who migrate to the U.S. from countries who don't even have a formal educational system do better than blacks on standardized tests after a little remediation?...Now, blacks may not have the best schools, but they sure as hell have better ones than where these people came from.

Quit making excuses, and change your ways.

Ha, you're a flamer. I'm not going to even read your stuff.

I'm all about saying that black is beautiful and black women are sexy. I don't care if you have problem with that. :kick:

I totally disagree we are the fastest and smartest just me two cents. We really don't get the chance to be the smartest. LOok at the difference in the school systems, look at most of our black communitys, but if it was totally fair I think black people would be smarter lol and faster. I'm just saying.

Anyone who doesn't think blacks in America are disadvantaged is lying to themselves. Recent history (the past 50-100 years is recent) will impact a sect of people, it will cripple, it could nearly destroy. This country and the black people in it, have a long way to go before things are truly equal, and the past isn't so intertwined in the outcome.

Asians and any other immigrants you want to think up, come here with the means and the mentality to succeed, or they wouldn't be here. Black people are here because of something totally different, and they are still recovering from the past. Their mentality is not the same. The few success stories will shine the light on the future.

You guys need to except that you guys have a huge head start not just from slavery but cuz you guys are still holding us down. If we all swiched schools and you guys got the ****ty schools and we blacks took the good schools we'd defineatly crush you. Why do you think everyone is so opposed to affirmative action? you guys know if you actually gave us a chance we'd dominate in the classrooms and everywhere else like we always do. INfact if you look it up the person with the highest I.Q in the world isnt white or asain its actually a black person. Hince http://youtube.com/watch?v=3htdF2QC1JA&feature=related or hints ronny nelson http://youtube.com/watch?v=k9QIToUn5E8 WE DOMINATE THIS ****!!!!

Black pride is a defense mechanism. It just like the posts in the DJ Bible telling you to be the prize... whether or not you are. It's a way to reframe the mind.

Exactly!


By the way, educational system in the US sux.. Whether a black guy goes to a white school or vice versa does not matter.


Oh, and affirmative action is wrong. It's just a way to populate unqualified black men into a company that does not want them.. That's a way to create hate.. Instead, a person must want to succeed, then no restrictions could really hold you down..


There is a lot associated with Black.. As if black is bad.. But once you say that black is beautiful then all the walls crumble and restrictions are lifted.. You know the saying we all know here very well, love yourself and people will love you too.

 

[trojanman88]

not neccessarily... i just hate people that say we aren't smart. And don't even look up the facts about why the U.S. is in the situation it is today. Okay we might not have the same kind of scores on the SAT's but also ask yourself why dont they score as high? DONT just make it seem like we just dont good brains... ITs deeper than that and white popel need to see it for what it is you guys held us down and you are still doing it today...

"By the way, educational system in the US sux.. Whether a black guy goes to a white school or vice versa does not matter."

To even suggest we are in the same boat thats straight up ignorant

 

[Mr. Wolf]

You're ignorant..


I spoke no English in high school and had good grades in English.. While those who were born in here spoke it well and struggled.. I went to a black school.


It goes back to desire to be successful.. Blaming others for your misfortunes is weak.
