because white people brought blacks from africa for slavery lol those titles only pertain to american nationalities -_-
I'm not sure what you mean by the first line, but it looks to me that you're just cutting out parts of my text to make it look like mean something else. I did not address the existence of the race itself, but it's title of "African American". It's what the American census calls said race. I know the history of the middle passage and stuff, but I was really not referring to that. And I really don't like how you cut off the "/white american" part of the text, because it just makes it look like I'm kind of racist, lol. And in case parts of my comment cause confusion, the first quote you addressed was me stating that I wasn't saying that you are able to or can call it a race, but in the second quote I continue to say that "I don't know, some people say it is." but just in other words, which is true, alot of people say "white americans" without the "white", so it turns to only "american". This looks confusing because the second quote was actually a reply to your comment, which actually made me realise that it wasn't really racism so I said that "I don't know", indicating a guess. The next quote you referred to really confused me. I don't know what your purpose was, but really, I don't understand it. Your final line is true, that they only pertain to American nationalities, but they are still a race. While it is true that only American citizens may be called "white american" (obviously), but I am referring to them as a race in general. If you'd look at the "fat stereotypes" on American people, what is pictured would be a white american, which is really what I was referring to in the very first comment.
Then why not just say 'white people' as it would refer to white people globally? Think global fam my bad True
As much as I would like to support this as a greenie, It's also very hard to change this. Old habits don't go away easily. Plus we STILL have the KKK, who will never bug off, just GO AWAY KLU KLUX KLAN.
I was asked to leave my thoughts bellow. My thoughts: What the f***? You're talking so much bullshit in that thread that isn't even remotely true. 'greenies' isn't discriminating. Noobs is, I agree. But there are so many absolute lies in there I think this thread should be locked and deleted.
The rudest thing I've seen in this thread is H- ho- how the ... How do you say something like that! I'm honestly lost for words.
You tell us not to be racist and yet you are. I feel you had a rude and a bit of a hypocritical approach to this but I agree discrimination does happen and needs to stop in the world. At the same time though I wonder if this belongs a minecraft forum?
i was a greenie literally last month and was proud asf. its not an insult its an accomplishment for being able to get so far without being donor.
im here just scrolling through comments dont mind me just scroll down i dont know what to say tbh :3 #GreeniesLifeMatters
No. I agree with you. Whenever a black guy gets shot by some idiot cops this black people need to grow a pair and suck it up. This is 2016 racism is ok again.
Well I didn't say white people to refer to them globally because the OP's comment was about an American stereotype. I wouldn't be talking about African/White Americans at all if it wasn't.
Well yeah, my reference to White/African Americans was just to explain to you why I thought some people call "American" a race.
‘Greenie’ is actually a racist term for Mexicans. It has a lot of meanings, actually. In Australia – you can already guess – it's what we call those idiots that try and save the environment. “Discrimination takes place everywhere. White people say that white and black people aren't equals. White people know really well, that black people don't want to be called a 'n*****'.” This paragraph went from 0 – 100 real quick. Honestly. I’m going to educate you, OP. The word ‘n*****’ (complete spelling) is what you would call a slave. ‘n****’ (street spelling) is what you would call a gangster. There’s a difference between a n***** and a n****. There’s plenty of black people that will back up this claim, and many of them repeat it themselves. Many black people don’t actually care if a white person says the word, as long as it’s not used in a way to insult them – the nature of the word makes context very hard, though. I knew a black guy IRL (Crazy, I know) and I frequently said the word around him and he never once got triggered and went on a tangent about slaves. He just laughed and called me a ‘p**** white b****boy’ and that I’d never say it in a way to offend him. I do not encourage any of you to test this theory in such areas as Brooklyn or any other area that is labelled a ‘hood’ as you’ll be shot the moment you pronounce the first two letters of the word. As my black friend would say: capped, n****. “But they don't care, they still call them like this. White people are (in average) richer than black people since Africa is a third world continent on its own.” What? There’s plenty of black people richer than white people. This statement is highly racist. “The first world develops faster, works faster, it's linked to everything around the world. Africa is not able to do so. Not yet. To help Africa, to allow them to take place in our world normally, we need to stop racism and discrimination.” Are you assuming that all black people live in Africa? You also claim that racism and discrimination need to be stopped, but you’re actually racist yourself. “In America, this has already happened. Black people count as normal citizens, they are allowed to do (almost!) everything.” *eye twitch* “Another important point is the lgbt-community.” Yeah, skipping this whole gay debate. I don’t care about your sexuality. What happens behind closed doors should remain there. And the rest of this thread is just ramblings of a delusional racist. There is only one race and that’s human. We all breathe the same way, we all bleed the same way, and we all die the same way. Racist, sexism, and homophobia isn’t going to stop as the human race is actually cancer and should be exterminated to prevent further corruption.
