I do know that there are already several threads about racism, but I find it a theme too important, therefore I put it here again.
Oh goodie... more beating a dead horse. Thanks for that.
quote:
To start with talking about racism e. g. white over black is false and is only stating the personal ignorance and lack of knowledge.
Then why would you post anything about it if the discussion is null and void?
quote:
So pretending this is only revealing the non-education, the non-cultivation.
Words. Use them. Force them to do your bidding.
quote:
According to a French Sociologist (Albert Memmi) racism is defined as follows (I try to translate from German)
Because French sociologists always use the German language when speaking?
quote:
Racism is the generalized and absolutized judgement of real or fictive difference for the accuser’s benefit to his victim’ s disfavour to justify his privileges and aggressions with.
OK.
quote:
Accuser is the one claiming to be superior and judging the other to be inferior by abstracting a real difference to a non-real difference. The victim is qualified inferior only for the purpose that the pretending superior can exploit and benefit from the other.
I'm with you so far... albeit a tad lost I must admit.
quote:
To clear it up, what is exactly told by the above sociologist:
1th the judgement of the other is generalized and absolutized, this means it is not individual. So the accuse of racism is non-individual, so in reality there is no fundamental base to address reproach to the accused in any concrete way. In conclusion this means it is not individual and therefore not substantial.
Oh God. What the hell does that even mean?
quote:
2nd the subject of accuse is real or fictive, but in the end it is all fictive.
So wait, if it is either real or fictive but it is all fictive.... why did you even give me a choice?
quote:
Why? If there is a difference it is a too small one to harp on about. Is there a difference between white and black negligibly the different colour. Black mankind is mankind as the white and others too, there is no preference. If you try to focus on the gene analysis, it is to affirm, there is a difference, but it is a too small difference to make it valuable. There are also gene differences if someone is black or brown-haired, if someone is grey or green-pupil-eyed. So you cannot recur on the genes to make men and women with another colour inferior to yourself.
I'd like to teach the World to sing... in perfect harmony...
quote:
3rd the trial to elaborate, construct and pervert the difference to advantage of the self-pretended superior
Dude... No really... Dude. You just hurt my brain.
quote:
4th that all to justify and legitimate the advantage of privilege or aggressions
Either this is a low blood sugar moment for me, or you are breaking every law that exists in making a sentence. We won't even talk about making sense.
quote:
You can transfer all of that to genders man/woman or religion christian/moslem or nationality and so on. It is to understand that all is constructed by us humans. We are the ones who declare and state if someone is superior or inferior, this judgement is depending on our socialization, education and cultivation, in fact it is not natural but artificial -I repeat it again- by us humans.
So, let me get this straight, without humans there would be no human racism? Do I win?
quote:
So if you are able to learn anything out of this be aware that you are human as the other one as well, be he/she man/woman, different-coloured, different religionized and so on….
We are different and the same, all at the same time. Jesus... I'm starting to talk like you.
quote:
So in the end, if you respect ypourself, then respect others the same way!!
I feel like holding someone's hand now. Honest.
Thanks for setting me straight about this topic.
