er, she obviously meant fit in with whites. as you noted psychological profiles within groups are considerably diverse, but by her own words she was saying that possibly (im not even necessarily agreeing) the reason why white people may harbour "racist" attitudes towards non-whites is because there is simply a much greater expectation of more integration whereby like-minded minorities will tend to more greatly associte with like-minded whites etc. as a whole, this does not really happen as she is suggesting they expect. so this is a factor according to HER in contributing to racist attitudes, which was what she was saying in the context.

there was no "they SHOULD integrate" in her words, just "if they INTEGRATED MORE IT COULD POSSIBLY AMELIORATE RACIST ATTITUDES"

 

[BigBoyJames -]

I have absolutely zero intention of integrating.

I know what she meant, I was playing devil's advocate. The Joe blow average Australian, if there is such a thing, is as much prejudiced towards others because of social standing or sexuality as they are to race. Similarly people who are more open to minorities tend also to be elitist and feel disdain for those they consider to be of lower status. I think it is less a case of racism and more a case of people feeling unwarranted self-importance. They do not discriminate because of races being different, but because they believe their way of living to be superior. Furthermore I don't consider this phenomenon at all exclusive to Australia.

australians and whites in general are far less prejudiced than non-whites (blacks are probably the most parochial and intolerant racial group); this is self-evident in the fact that white societies are the only societies literally stupid enough to consider racial diversity as some sort of societal enrichment and to embrace an idiotic universalism that is effectively shared by nobody else in the world but them. i don't think the average "joe blow" (or however you choose to characterise him) australian loathes non-whites, but is more than likely indifferent to non-whites, and effectively associates almost entirely with whites. there is an obvious preference for one's own kind which does not necessarily have to imply a dislike of another's kind.

but no, you hit the nail on the head (and i have been saying this for an extremely long time) when you said that so called "anti-racism" can be an elitist movement and an attempt by individuals to distinguish themselves from what they perceive as a "racism riddled society" (according to them, anyway) by embracing what it. these attitudes are apparent in higher circles and in the media, and may have origins in intellectual movements that began as far back as psychoananalysis and the frankfurt school of sociology. in this sense, to beat one's chest and announce how tolerant one is is an indication of high social status; not that much different from owning a luxury car.

whats wrong with jews? logan lerman is jewish and he's fucking hot

 

[cosmo kramer]

they differ from us in their attitudes and many other things, but the most relevant differences of concern are high intelligence (one standard deviation above us), extreme ethnocentrism and ingroup morality, an exacting nature, a quasi-religious devotion to "tolerance", a tendency to reductionist pseudo-intellectualism, and a very poor sense of aesthetics

and they're not the most physically attractive group either. really there's nothing wrong with them perse but their interests tend to be antithetical to our interests and from that about them i object and consider the jewish question to be a relevant one (but obviously have no interest in claptrap holocaust denial or oddball new world order conspiracy theories)

 

[SeCKSiiMiNh]

have you seen logan lerman? if thats not attractive, then i dont know what is

 

[cosmo kramer]

yeah but whoever that individual is is likely an extreme exception to the rule

typical jewish physical characteristics are not very flattering

 

[Lolsmith]

yeah but whoever that individual is is likely an extreme exception to the rule
