Racism? maybe... - Comments

  • The way we run things is stupid.
    But whatever. And it doesn't matter.
    At all. But people think it does.
    Stupid.

  • Sorry babe, but, you have to deal with whatever life gives you.
    DUDE! I'm a f*cking ginger kid! Who is what some jerk in my school calls 'emo'. Not to mention I'm also Jewish. You're gonna get sh*t wherever you go in life. Especially in school. You are what you are and you can't change that much.
    You can change your style, your friends, your school. But you can't change your roots nor your skin color without being Micheal Jackson.
    A kid in my school is also half black but has pale skin. And he's on the chubby side. Yet no one I know makes fun of him because he is okay with what he is and he doesn't care.
    Neither should you.

  • Look, I get what you're saying very well. It just so happens everyone who believes that racism is wrong also is a big fat hypocrite. I'm sorry but its true and whoever denies it is just making themselves out to be an even bigger hypocrite. Its funny because African Americans always preach about equal rights and all this but in the end they themselves still make racist comments against other races and one can't help but think; "Practice what you preach." or "Treat others how you would like to be treated." In reality all races do this. They say one thing and do another. I lived in a predominantly African American neighborhood before I know what its like and I'm Mexican. They don't like us either but that still doesn't mean that I'm gonna go spreading a bunch of bull about their race because HELLO wake up everyone we're all human beings. We are ONE RACE. Whether you like it or not. Unless you're from outer space then...good luck with that.>>

  • We are all the same race. . . human.

    It's simple as that really but people just don't get it

  • V. Totally fine to shorten it, I let everyone else do it. And Jinxeh: Her sister has an account and she got on it, she said. I don't think she meant she has two.x)

  • Nero ur right no such thing as race therefore it does not matter

    Brookiekillskittens ur right too so i took it out and why would u kill kittens there cute (sometimes until they try to claw ur eyes out)

    Jewel Nicole something i should have put in the journal is that i have always been picked on for being the white girl so maybe i was a little prejudiced but i know without a doubt she was too and it most likely will never stop but that doesn't make it right

    THANK YOU straightjacket_who32

  • v. She's completely right. You have no proof that they were laughing at your skin color. It's just normal high school shit. Everyone deals with it, you'll always have to put up with crap in life, so it's best to learn how to brush things off your shoulders.Everyone rants on here about race, and honestly? This is nothing we haven't heard before.

    The world isn't fair, and girls aren't either. Just ignore them, as hard as it may be, it's proven to work.

  • Right. Like I said before, you're all just acting like immature high school students and then blaming it on race. It's not about race. It's about obnoxious high school girl behavior. She could have been laughing at you for A LOT of stupid little reasons. And even if she was laughing at you because of your race, you and your friends are still no better than she is.

    Judging an entire race because of some bratty high school students? Seriously?

    That's high school. People are going to be mean. They're going to pick on people if they're different.

    Like you said, RACE DOESN'T FUCKING MATTER. Perhaps you can try being true to your own words.

    And BET isn't racist. Outdated, sure, but not racist.

    I'm so tired of these rants on Mibba about racism. Yes it still exists in this country, but being picked on at school by some "mean girls" doesn't constitute pulling the race card.

  • Though you deleted her comment, I'm with Audrey T. on this one. High school kids are obnoxious prats that will pick on anyone because that's their nature. You're really jumping the gun by going straight to "racist!" with this one. You think that simply because she's black, her actions were driven by race, and that in itself is a bit racist.

  • Well, it's true. There is only the human race, and it's been scientifically proven that all human beings, no matter where they are from, share around 99.9% of the same genetic code with each other.

    Race exists only as a social construct, and it's pretty sad how that's affected us throughout our existence.

  • Yea bugs me too. That's why I put that I rather not answer for school and stuff that asks me. I don't see how it helps anyone at all, then they all say "Everyone is equal" well what happened to the other side of the minority spectrum.
    Worse is the fact that if you are the slightest bit pale, you can't say anything about Latinos, Jews or black people......I'm with you.

  • Nero.
    That is the smartest thing I have ever heard escape from the mouth of a human being.

  • I'm mixed, half black, half white, and so are a lot of kids at my school. Do we get shit off of black people? YES. So you shouldn't think it's just white kids getting picked on by black people. Everyone is up for grabs, everyone is a target, that's life. I'm over it, let them say whatever they want. Because in the end it just makes them look stupid.

    All because 100's of years ago people that I don't even know, made Africans that black people don't even know slaves. I'm not saying slavery is right because it's not. But get over it, your not a slave and you don't know anyone who ever was.
    That made no sense, and most likely it's going to cause drama on comments, so you might want to edit it out. I'm just trying to help.

    This is a touchy subject, many people will get offended, and racism is always going to be around. Nothing anyone can really do about it.

  • Racism is such a stupid term. There is no such thing as race among humans...
    March 4th, 2010 at 01:55am
  • Alright, well, I'm going to say the same thing I said on the other journal. Racism is going to be around forever, I don't think it'll ever completely stop.

    And I'm going to have to agree with what Audrey T said. You're blaming the girls race for her behavior instead of her character. That's prejudice right there, so, in my opinion, you're just as guilty as her. (If she was even being prejudiced, because you still don't know what exactly she was laughing about.)
