I miss the days when everything and everyone was “racist”

Don’t like the air con too cold ? Racism

Don’t like colour of the library toilet ? Racism

Unhappy with your car’s fuel consumption ? Racism

Packed on a few pounds over Christmas? Racism

those sunny days past when I could counter every debate and argument with “racism” and not to forget “racist”.

Let’s bring back racism

> I miss the days when everything and everyone was “racist”

The racism fad years, I lived through those without encountering it, like the “free love” years.

Exactly what years were you talking about?

This website is extremely enlightening about racist attitudes by both “blacks” and whites in the USA. I put the word “blacks” in quotes because it’s more a religion than a race. A christian is anyone who wants to call themselves a christian, a black is anyone who wants to call themselves a black.

Anyway, back off high horse, the website is https://igpa.uillinois.edu/programs/racial-attitudes and is well worth a read. Very prominant is the change in white attitudes to interracial marriage between 1955 and 2015.

An interesting thought though if you were a white Caucasian raised by Aboriginals and grew up with their culture could/would you classify yourself or officially be recognised as an Aboriginal person or be accepted as one

I think this comment displays a fundamental misunderstanding of 1. what racism actually is and 2. what it means to identify with a particular cultural group.

According to the official definition by the Australian Bureau of Statistics, anybody can call themselves an Aboriginal or Torres Straight Islander. There’s no requirement for any ancestors to be Aboriginal. In fact, you can prove from the age structure of ABS results that there are a lot of people out there calling themselves Aboriginal and Torres Straight Islander, neither of whose parents are Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander. I have heard the ABS complain about this.

that’s not what racism is about though… I can call myself ATSI, I can identify with it, I can be accepted by the people as part of them, but I’m still not going to experience racism in the same way… even if I tattoo it on my head.

although, in fairness, that same tattoo will probably illicit it’s own form of discrimination

Dare you to say that at an Aboriginal gathering. They would quickly sort out your befuddled mind.

interestingly many serial killers of the organised type do keep lists of their victims… names, places of burial/abduction/kill, inventories of trophies etc.. it makes it very nice for prosecutors, but being the meticulous planning types, they are usually the most difficult to capture.. their unravelling generally comes when something doesn’t go to their plan and they spiral and make silly mistakes. (although just as interestingly, these ‘mistakes’ are often not attributed to the same killer because of the divergence from the pattern)

I have a sort of quiet anglo pride, prowess from, possibly it could be understood as anglo superiority, be a difficult thing for me to deconstruct, if there’s much to deconstruct, and to do that i’d probably use a bunch of english words, i’d need English it, with english ideas, consult with structures in my cranium that evolved over millions of years, I might wonder how much truth or reality on the subject they’d yield, then I might defer to culture for an answer, borrow some tools from culture for examining that, more english words and ideas, probably disappear up my own whatever

I do have some racist sentiments, more I play with them to, analyze them maybe, make fun of them

more I have some misanthropic sentiments, criticality about the entire species, which I try to keep positive, again requires some humor

Its true !

Once you kill you can’t stop killing, after that the killing takes a back seat and you start documenting the kills
Eg
Drunken hobo
Central station
Sydney 1am
Flower tattoo on left arm
