You actually agree with that? That is like suggesting a black person moving into a white neighborhood is an attempt to make white people leave the neighborhood. Ergo, who chooses to shut down the debate, the person claiming racism or the person accused of racism? The goal is not to get you to move or to end the debate.....that is just how many whites react to the situation. I mean, how does someone claiming an argument is racist force the other person to end the debate? I can almost guarantee you that the person claiming racism does not want the debate to end......but the person being called out for being racist decides to move out the neighborhood, metaphorically speaking.Accusations of racism are just a means to shut down debate and avoid honest discussion.
Yes, just yet another trait of racism and its wide range on humanity. Racism has a way of " Quickly bringing a discussion to boil", and I think another trait of it is how some use it like a weapon. Like grabbing a knife and cutting at you and your thoughts.
As human natures reaches for the top, it thinks the bottom is too crowded with lesser beings. So it steps on them , like using them as steps to propel themselves higher. I think that is what created the Women's Liberation movement", women just got tired of men stepping all over them for all our selfish reasons.
Well in some fights there is no winner, just as in debate. I rarely let others chase me away from debate , I have to really get tired of them before I leave. Racist debate has its own peculiar dynamic , it can become repulsive as it begins its boil. And some just seem to grow tired of the heat it generates.
I think the disconnect is that what some people view as TRUTHS others interpret as racist. In other words, some people believe that a truth cannot be racist and if people believe strongly that blacks inferiority is a TRUTH, then they reject claims that they are being racist. However, nothing in the official definition of racism mentions TRUTHS. What people think are TRUTHS is actually no more than a strong belief or faith in your second hand source of the information.
Is there an official definition that defines Blacks as inferior that has a real leg to stand on?
None that I know of but the definition leaves leaves it open for any race to be guilty of racism as it does not officially define racism as an act against blacks only. It just so happens that the way that things played out, its mostly whites who see themselves as superior....ie...racist.
