Why racism is stupid

An article promoting all the positive aspects of cultural diversity, both in the UK and worldwide, in an attempt to counteract the Nazi filth thats been polluting the newswire these past few days.
WE ARE ALL ONE RACE. We may have different shapes, sizes, and colours, but the fact remains, we all belong to the same species, Homo sapiens. However, listen to some of the fascists who have polluted the newswire with their filth over the past few days and the would have you believe that one culutre/race (mainly White, European and Christian) are inherently superior to other cultres, and Asian, Muslim people are often singled out as inferior, along with the Jews who want to wipe out everyone else off the face of the planet. It is well past time to set the record straight. First of all, we as a human race originate from one common origin, in Africa. Since we originate from Africa, it is quite likely that the first humans were black, and every other race, inculding whites, decended from them. This pretty much drives the "whites are superior" argument down the toilet. If non-whites are so thick, what are the Asian, Oriental and black students doing at my university? If anyone is inherently inferior it's the hypocitical racist scumbags who write this crap. I happen to know one Asian student who is one of the nicest, caring people I have ever met, and it just makes me think: racism is just plain stupid, and racist people are in a way blind as they are unable to see the beauty within, so everybody else should feel quite sorry for them.

Therefore if either the whiteman or blackman is superior it would actually be the blackman from Africa who isn't related at all to the Neanderthal.
Anyway I'm off now to scratch my neanderthal ar*e.

until I was about 18 I guess I went along with the story,the indians were the baddies and the cowboys were the goodies , they always won in the end and invariably got the woman ..
The WW2 stuff was much of a much.
Now days it's Black hawk, before that it was Rambo, most of todays blockbusters are more of the same hollywood propaganda.
we are all middle class but some of us are more middle class then others. so we are all well educated but some of us are better educated then others
LEFT is RIGHT , RIGHT is WRONG .
there's just the rich and the poor , the poor paid for your education, your cumfy life style is on the back of some poor bugger on the other side of the world. The Palestinians are a good example ..
looka
Of course...

Civilizations have risen and fallen, whole continents have sunk in hoary antiquity, but I do believe we are all here, on Earth, in the same stinking, sinking ship and a mega tsunami is coming, so fuck petty debates on race and lets all pull together, or die together.

all the same to the POOR.

To me there is a different the right wing guy is more than likely a racist bigot and has "I'm a cunt" written on his forehead. The lefty guy is more than likely very bright and well educated, politically correct, and proud of it, but totally full of shit like the twats who wrote most of the above shite.

Somthing else that i have been musing for a while is that if the most recent projections on climate change are correct (Warming in the Arctic causes a disruption in the Gulf stream flow leaving N Europe with a climate more usual at this Latitude- ie fucking cold like N Canda)
Then there will be thousands (Millions?) of displaced North Europeans looking to Emigrate. And if your going to Emmigrate then that means you have to be a immigrant somewhere, Somewhere like Africa say.
And I know what I would say to this influx of illegal immgration if I was a African given the way that we treat them at the moment.
What goes around comes around.

The reason why Africans were enslaved and oppressed by Europeans was purely due to the European invention of gunpowder that gave whites military supremacy and therefore the chance to build empires. Africa's downfall continues to be Western business interests and the influx of Western arms.
If you think that the height of civilisation is the ability to commit mass murder more efficiently than others, then give me the noble savages of Africa any day.

By the way, could someone on IMC remove the 1st_amendment comment as this racist trash is exactly what I am talking about, and it has no place anywhere, especially not on IMC. Pete and cleo's comments are also racist as they make out that blacks are superior, and in my books that is just as bad as saying whites are superior. You cannot have one rule for one race and one rule for another.

Attempting to demonstrate that the extremist opinions on race demonstrated by earlier commentators was as bad as the comments of your so called enemy 'the right'...
Thou clearly that sort of complex play on 'devils advocacy' was lost on the brain washed masses of indymedia.
Look at my nick... I'M here for one reason... to try and encourage freedom of speech for those with all political ideologies and opinions... as indymedia really has begun to impose its own 'insidious' brand of cencorship on what people can and cannot 'say' in reply to newswire articles.
Remember... you guys villify the right and say that fascism = control of the people. But on the same level your own brand of marxism/socialism is supporting the very things that you claim are inheritently bad about fascist ideology.... (media control and censorship, intolerance, even as demonstrated in the above comments, racism, and hatred of your own race)...
Its about time indymedia allowed ALL to post... with the exception clearly of posts that make libelous comments about individuals.

We've all lost the human race.....
