Should the words 'racism' and 'racist' be abolished from the English language, and should there be a law to restrict ANYONE from utterring the word EVER again? While we're at it, lets get rid of 'generalisation' too.

No I'm not serious.

But too many people hide behind this fucking word and im sick of it. I notice a lot of BOS hippies like to throw this word around as soon as someone speaks generally on another race.

Do you people think we are still in kindergarten or something, how egocentric are you? Get it through your fucking head WE KNOW NOT EVERY MEMBER OF A RACE IS STEREOTYPICAL.

One ACCURATE stereotype is the 'lebo' stereotype, and don't try to tell me its not; if you think it's not, go get out more you stupid 11th grader and 12th grader Advanced English (omg I'm learning about society LOL i know more than people who have learnt the same shit I'm learning already).

Yes I am angry.

I guess I'm a BOS hippie.
You say that not every member of a race is stereotypical. Then you go on to talk about "lebos". They are, in fact, called "Lebanese". And I don't think they would appreciate what you have just said about their entire race.
Go and celebrate. Ignorance is bliss.

It's only racist if the perpetrator is white.

yeah those retaliation attacks were just the 'lebos' fighting back against the opressive white devils that enslaved their favourite rappers ancestors years ago. [hippie] Go easy on the young boys[hippie]

I don't need to be told what to think. But I'm glad you approve :)
Have fun tonight.
Australia Day, ironic, isn't it? I mean, an "Australian" can be from anywhere in the world. I wouldn't be taking a racist stance in this particular country. Just me, though. You do whatever you think is intelligent and morally right. :)

and no i don't think taking a 'racist' stance (or should i say seemingly racist stance) is morally right. But i dont give a fuck because i think morals suck.

Re: the word 'racism'

i agree with hiphop. a lot of people are overly p.c, which only lessens your power of objective judgement on the world around you.

then there's the opposite extreme, which is worse. im not advocating racism, which i know exists. im just saying that the fear of being labelled "racist" shouldnt hinder your opinions.

I'm glad you so easily summarise our identity. The only problem is that we accept other people as they are, as if having any kind of cultural or legal assimilation would be unethical...

Eh, it bugs me when people try to safeguard their asses by prefacing a "racist" remark with "I'm not racist, but.."

oh i agree with you, i was more talking about the individual fear of offending minority groups that controls and changes the way we think and function as free thinking people, let alone the greater government and the nation.

Re: the word 'racism'

You guys need to do some very basic thinking. I.e: What would it be like if someone was racist to ME?

It's simple, so you'll probably understand it.

Good luck.

I'm going to get on with my life, graduating high school and such. And celebrating, with the knowledge that an Australian can be any colour, race, nationality, etc.

And you know what?

The less you let people (e.g a certain race) get to you, the more happy you will be.

I'm a damn hippie and I'm damn proud.

Re: the word 'racism'

racism is taking characteristics of a member of that race and generalising them to EVERY member of that race.

*refer to my first post* we are not dimwits, we know not every member is like that.

Re: the word 'racism'

But the thing is, you people are racists. Where do you think your not racist somewhere between calling coloured people "apes" or calling for some mini genocide of 'ethnic' people?

No your reply would be "Oh come on boss im just like you i hate the fucking nigers, come on boss give me a chance, ill shine your shoes boss". Because all im hearing from you, is you sucking up to the Anglo nationalists.
