Please convince my bigoted self of why racial tolerance is benefits me and maybe you can become the future miss universe.

[Saebin :D]

wow you sure do create interesting topics. lol.

it's rude, insensitive and hurtful?

[jieunnie<3]

^ Uh yea..that pretty much covers it... also, it creates unnecessary conflict among different ethnic groups and that usually turns into violence. And it'll just pretty much create an uncomfortable environment for the racial victims and the racists. O.O;; Oh ya, and people will think you're a pinkberry.

most people can't tolerate difference, if its one kind or another, they will have something against the opposite sex, some sort of religion, lesbians/gays, or simply something someone said... the list is endless. think about what has come out of not accepting difference - wars and the deaths of innocent people, the inability for relationships between people to develop, discrimination and grief of those being discriminated against.

i'm not going to mention the fact that its offensive to others because i'm quite assured that most people on this thread will.

more importantly, carrying that sort of mentality is not good for oneself, its disadvantaging yourself and limiting yourself to new avenues of possiblity (meaning that your disabling yourself from possible activities, meeting of good people due to your narrow minded views, not to mention you probably won't seem very approachable to those races you are racist towards).

ofcourse theres the matter that it is difficult to define exactly what racism is and where the line is. a lot of things can be argued to be racist, sexist, etc, etc. to put it bluntly, acceptance of others, is letting your mind be free. there are many things that are out of our control, but if we can control the way we think and if we are given that advantage, why not use it rather then limit ourselves?

peace.

Because the difference between a white man and a black man is the amount of melanin in his skin, and if you're going to discriminate against someone because they were born with more melanin, then you're a f@$%ing moron.


But that wasn't three reasons, was it.

^ ROFLLL oh man you're awesome.

1) Racism is not a one-way street; it can be towards you, too--and the more racist you are, the more likely it is that other people will get a negative impression of your own race.

2) It can cost people around the world jobs, friends, and various rights.

3) There's only a subjective basis for racism. In other words, it's all in your head.

4) As you can see, the people here already dislike you specifically because you're racist.

- It's a hasty generalization to judge a person just because of race.
- It hinders social equality.
- Because no race is really "better" than another race [as a whole].

I'm sure not only me, but everyone can give hundreds of reasons why racism is bad, let alone 3. But can u give me only 1 reason why it's good to be racist??? If u dun understand how bad racism is then u're simply a moron.

[Love Virus]

would you like to live in fear everyday of being killed or someone you know that could get killed because of your skin color?
Or not making enough money, not getting into college, not being able to live in a descent neighborhood,
losing eveything you have, because of your skin color?

[Rin<3]

Pretty much agreed to all of the above, haha ~ ^^*
It hurts other people's feelings, not to mention that it's not necessary because we're all the same despite our appearance.
There are too many other reasons - so yes, racism is bad, and I think it's common sense.
