KopTalk.com Forums What is racism ?

Are different ethnic groups differently disposed towards being racist? Is being racist, a trait that is primarily to be found in one race more than another?

When one ethnic group is identified as being 'racist' is this not simply a racist observation?

If being racist is a weakness or a flaw in one racial group, surely it would be equally prevalent in another or what are we saying?

When one group identifies another as racist, it seems pointless. If you want to say that people are capable of racism, and that it is not a good thing, most people would agree. If one further insists that one ethnic group is 'racist' ie more racist than others, that surely is just a racist statement that seeks to taint a race of people without objective justification.

How can one race of human beings be racist against another without the same attitude prevailing in reverse?

How many Americans are in the KKK? Could anyone (I understand that you are not suggesting this) honestly use this as proof that 'white people are all racist'?

If anything, the failure of the KKK to take root in so much of USA rather suggests the reverse.

I see another grooming gang has been unearthed this time in Newcastle 700 victims 98% white and the perpetrators almost entirely of Asian Muslim extraction. The victims white schoolgirls some as young as 11. One thirteen year old girl raped repeatedly for days under a Kurdish flag held in a dingy flat and pumped with methodone to keep her compliant. As is usual in these cases the authorities turned a blind eye not wanting to be accused of racism.

So my question is could any of this be racist or is it just cultural differences we are going to have to accept on the grounds of tolerance

We all know white people dont commit rape, just asian Muslims.

Of course they do and pedohillia the however the police are not hampered by "so called" sensitivities in arresting them which means in practice they can continue their disgusting trade in children with impunity. Also the Muslim grooming gangs in Britain are nationwide and extensive and alarmingly don't seem to be stopping despite the number of arrests of the gangs in recent years. This was commented on by the judge in the Newcastle case. There are no cases of Muslim grooming gangs in Derry as far as I am aware.
