Re: Racism

Racism has increased, is it time to stop talking about it and let things go back to how they were before all the corporate woke washing?

Re: Racism

Why can't everybody accept that we are all different? We will never like everybody, but in most racist comments the people that say them have probably never spoken to person they are criticizing!
I judge people by what they say & how they behave, so if they are criminals I have no time for them if they break the law , black or white!
Are people so ignorant they cannot see that racism is taking us back to a time where people all belonged to different tribes & had to fight to get what they wanted.

I don't like football, but I will say that the England team all worked hard to get to the final, and whether they are black or white I suspect they all did their best to win. I don't know who posts all the racist comments on social media, but whoever they are I suspect they may be regretting that they didn't have the talent to play football for England, so resent the young black players, who have shown they are better than the racist.
Why do that always need somebody to blame, when there will be a loser at every football match?

Re: Racism

I find it frustrating that racism appears to be all one way. It seems to be white against everybody else. If racism is to be eradicated, then other cultures must also be tolerant and understanding of the culture of white people, surely? (Just in general, not specifically about football)

Re: Racism

I think that those who are continually claiming they are being racially abused should stop feeling sorry for themselves and get on with living.

Easy to say when you're not the one living it.

The woke thought process seems to be " you're only worthwhile if you are different. Tradition and status quo are immoral. White is bad, white male is worse, white heterosexual male is the root of all evil in the world."
I vote Conservative too, I am bloody doomed!

Why ever NOT?

Problem is for many races, their race wants to dominate.

We’re no different to any other race.... only some of us want to dominate as well..

Superior to others ...is so not good!!....

As a human I am equal to everyone...but obviously not in society.

Which don’t count to me...I am inferior to “ No One” as they aren’t to me!.

What’s with all this superiority rubbish...what does one gain from it.

Oh let me guess....” Power”.....why some humans have to feel superior to others..I have no idea...maybe you can explain.

My race is better than yours...that’s what it boils down to..for some...

I live in America, the so called melting pot. I hate the term used to describe people who look Anglo-Saxon, "White People". I don't take it as an insult, but as a stupidly made comment. If you live in America and your family has been here 3 or 4 generations, then chances are you like me are a mutt. I may look like a white person, although I have at least 3 races I know of in my DNA stew, God only knows if there are any other races in there. I don't get being hung up on describing ourselves as white, black, yellow, red. Can't we all just be people. I'm just saying.
