So I think the problem I have with parsing this site is I can’t understand what kind of pressure would make someone racist. The left loyalty-purged me twice for sins of excess tolerance like the time I spoke openly in a leftist community about how they should not hate-browse the internet (I only got to say that once!), as well as my general advocacy against mandatory xenophobic atomization, and for that matter my opposition to two-faced bullies who used “tolerance” as excuses to run manipulative flocks of alts! All in all, I’m pretty comfortable saying I’d not likely bend to whatever kind of pressure conforms people into racists, or going through leftist “anti”-racism might’ve done the trick. But would it have? No part of that experience was particularly racially flavored. I met a bunch of spiteful lying jerks. No more, no less; it doesn’t even really reflect on leftism. Patterns like that don’t work well enough to go en masse.

In fact, it seems a little peculiar that I’m supposed to believe privileged comfortable white people would shatter into racists at all. It makes more sense in the dehydrated regions of Asia and Africa, or in the diseased jungles of South America and Africa. Rather than some upwelling of broken white racists, it seems more likely that people who imagine themselves omniscient superiors are drooling over their own fingers in glee about how clever they are.

What I’m saying is, this whole “are arabs white?” question is too bogus to believe in. It’s a gibberish question from suffering minds.

I’m slow to give up on the hated. I know anyone here must feel that society has designated them to die as racists, but I still don’t want to break you into that role. You don’t have to be obedient to hate-filled people.

Thread vanished at low post-count, so I’m transplanting my comment :)
