Race is a social construct. Racists are overthinking it.
Not at all, you're severely idealistic, and ignorant, if you believe such a thing.
There's a ton of different racial variables which cause differences in temperament.
For example, MAO-A is found lowest in African-Americans, and this gene is found highest in Caucasians, and low MAO-A causes extreme impulsive behavior, violence, criminality, and general risky behavior.
Another example, the 7 repeating allele of D4DR causes ADHD like impulsive behavior, inattention, and risky behavior, even criminality, and is found highest in South-Americans. and at lowest frequencies in Asians.
To say these don't matter, it's a severe ignorance.
Everything you said is bullshit. The differences we are cultural and environmental. Race isn’t a predisposition
I see the individual first.
Of course that statement means nothing to the race gimps that fill these pages.
I consider this section just to be another wing of the Rubber Room.
Thing is, I have never once used a racial slur on these pages, but apparently calling out idiots makes you a racist.
Whatever.
The individual is most always the important factor for me regardless of race, gender, blah, blah. Whether I determine someone’s a good person or an a-hole has nothing to do with any of that stuff.I hate what gets written here for the most part. Hate it. I could go into many details but I won't here. Maybe in the thread.
So anyway, if you come to this forum but you believe in Individual over Race, give me a holler below. I do not mean that "color-blind" hooey, like race does not matter. Of course race factors into who we are. But I mean that you see people AS INDIVIDUALS first, with names, histories, and stories, rather than "races" being the primary characteristic of a person.
On the eve of the 4th of July, this strikes me as deeply American...and Christian. So let's sound off!
Individualism is severely idealistic, severely weak, and in the end is without value, hardly even a moral value, even.
Survival dictates that we tend to get along better with our own group, and that other groups can be a threat by division, or by overtaking for dominance.
To bring too many different groups into a situation, often leads to conflict, and chaos.
It's called Balkanization, and it's caused war, massacres, genocide, and even wiping out of cultures across the globe.
None of this is anything favorable.
Also, Individualists tend to be quitters on their groups, instead of letting them thrive.... Like we see in Western European societies they're too busy letting the Individual be judged, that they've let in hostile intruders invade to the point of slowly collapsing themselves
While, it maybe true there's good, and bad, smart, and dumb in all groups.
They occur at very different proportions, for example we find that the Black collective often leads to more violence, decay, and poverty worldwide, regardless of they're being good, or smart Blacks, their societies are left behind.
Once again, nothing that should be supported.
Frankly if you're in my group, I will stick with Individualism. That word salad just comes across to be as divisive as the rest of the shit on here.
I have seen enough of your posts to conclude we have absolutely nothing in common.
Those who choose conflict will find it no matter what "group" they are in.
Take the Balkan wars.... Catholic Croats vs Orthodox Serbs vs Bosniak Muslims.
They all speak the same language..... Could they get along?
Absolutely not.
That's how Balkanization goes down, over, and over, and over again.
It doesn't matter that you have cute little ideals.
When the sh(t hits the fan, you will be dragged in as the lines fault.
I've spoken to Bosniaks in the war in the 1990's, her Serbian neighbors came in, and started shooting up their house.
That's the reality, and vice versa, Bosniaks did the same to Serbs too in the 1990's.
Idealistic Individualism will still get you killed, even if you have cute feelings of Individualism for the other, it won't save your life in the end.
Look at Amy Biehl, an anti-Racist activist in South-Africa, who still got killed by Blacks, because of the Black vs White divide there.
The problem is Individualism is idealistic, and holds absolutely no value in the real World.

Lol! Racism is more than using slurs.
No it is believing some races are superior or inferior leading to discrimination or prejudice. Which usually manifests in slurs and other things.
I think you've engaged in this plenty by posting how civilization started in Africa and etc, etc, etc.
Actually the archeologists have shown proof that civilization started in Africa. And there is nothing I have said that infers racial superiority of blacks. This is part of the problem with this discussion. Those like you want to pretend an asymmetrical relationship is symmetrical. Just like you now want to hold a micro level discussion about a macro level issue.
I guess that hinges on what one determines is “the beginning of civilization”. The formation of group identity? Or perhaps constructing buildings? Art? Language? Some of those are incredibly difficult to put a date on. Maybe even impossible.I see the individual first.

Humanity started in Africa, civilization started in the fertile crescent.

Muslims have killed a lot less White Americans, than African Americans have.
Even if the attacks by Muslims are more gruesome, they're pretty sparse.
Also African-Americans pay less in taxes, overload the system a lot more, and yet take more welfare by far.
It just goes to show you're not thinking very clearly.
Not saying that Muslims aren't a problem, but you Hicks tend to be not completely rational on the situation, in the first place.

Thank you for weighing in. There is no doubt about it: leftists will call you "racist" if you don't buy into their entire Orthodoxy. I reject it utterly and it no longer affects me at all. It never really did but anymore it's like brushing a gnat away, which is sad in a way--they have watered down a serious charge to the weight of a gnat.
In short if you don't like their big gov't schemes you are 'racist'.
It's a con.
11 Warning Signs of Gaslighting
Gaslighting is a tactic in which a person or entity, in order to gain more power, makes a victim question their reality. It works much better than you may think. Anyone is susceptible to gaslighting, and it is a common technique of abusers, dictators, narcissists, and cult leaders. It is done slowly, so the victim doesn't realize how much they've been brainwashed. For example, in the movie Gaslight (1944), a man manipulates his wife to the point where she thinks she is losing her mind.
In my book Gaslighting: Recognize Manipulative and Emotionally Abusive People - and Break Free I detail how gaslighters typically use the following techniques:
1. They tell blatant lies.
You know it's an outright lie. Yet they are telling you this lie with a straight face. Why are they so blatant? Because they're setting up a precedent. Once they tell you a huge lie, you're not sure if anything they say is true. Keeping you unsteady and off-kilter is the goal.
2. They deny they ever said something, even though you have proof.
You know they said they would do something; you know you heard it. But they out and out deny it. It makes you start questioning your reality—maybe they never said that thing. And the more they do this, the more you question your reality and start accepting theirs.
3. They use what is near and dear to you as ammunition.
They know how important your kids are to you, and they know how important your identity is to you. So those may be one of the first things they attack. If you have kids, they tell you that you should not have had those children. They will tell you'd be a worthy person if only you didn't have a long list of negative traits. They attack the foundation of your being.
4. They wear you down over time.
This is one of the insidious things about gaslighting—it is done gradually, over time. A lie here, a lie there, a snide comment every so often...and then it starts ramping up. Even the brightest, most self-aware people can be sucked into gaslighting—it is that effective. It's the "frog in the frying pan" analogy: The heat is turned up slowly, so the frog never realizes what's happening to it.
5. Their actions do not match their words.
When dealing with a person or entity that gaslights, look at what they are doing rather than what they are saying. What they are saying means nothing; it is just talk. What they are doing is the issue.
6. They throw in positive reinforcement to confuse you.
This person or entity that is cutting you down, telling you that you don't have value, is now praising you for something you did. This adds an additional sense of uneasiness. You think, "Well maybe they aren't so bad." Yes, they are. This is a calculated attempt to keep you off-kilter—and again, to question your reality. Also look at what you were praised for; it is probably something that served the gaslighter.
7. They know confusion weakens people.
Gaslighters know that people like having a sense of stability and normalcy. Their goal is to uproot this and make you constantly question everything. And humans' natural tendency is to look to the person or entity that will help you feel more stable—and that happens to be the gaslighter.
8. They project.
They are a drug user or a cheater, yet they are constantly accusing you of that. This is done so often that you start trying to defend yourself, and are distracted from the gaslighter's own behavior.
9. They try to align people against you.
Gaslighters are masters at manipulating and finding the people they know will stand by them no matter what—and they use these people against you. They will make comments such as, "This person knows that you're not right," or "This person knows you're useless too." Keep in mind it does not mean that these people actually said these things. A gaslighter is a constant liar. When the gaslighter uses this tactic it makes you feel like you don't know who to trust or turn to—and that leads you right back to the gaslighter. And that's exactly what they want: Isolation gives them more control.

10. They tell you or others that you are crazy.
This is one of the most effective tools of the gaslighter, because it's dismissive. The gaslighter knows if they question your sanity, people will not believe you when you tell them the gaslighter is abusive or out-of-control. It's a master technique.
11. They tell you everyone else is a liar.
By telling you that everyone else (your family, the media) is a liar, it again makes you question your reality. You've never known someone with the audacity to do this, so they must be telling the truth, right? No. It's a manipulation technique. It makes people turn to the gaslighter for the "correct" information—which isn't correct information at all.
The more you are aware of these techniques, the quicker you can identify them and avoid falling into the gaslighter's trap.

Hate, perhaps, perhaps not.... You can state facts, and opinions which are politically incorrect,without being hateful.. BTW.
However,
The ignorance is from yourself.
Racism, and other prejudices are natural.
So, you can't really do much to change that.
So, then actually, by supporting importing diversity by immigration, you're increasing prejudices, and racism.
Especially, in the form of victimization, because racist opinions don't hurt people in a homogeneous society, they can hurt people in a diverse society.
This is just how ignorant you Anti-Racist types tend to be.
