Like the belief that groups of people behave distinctively not because they have learned to do so, but because their members share some inherited essence.

I don't care. The fact is, Racism is an ACTED OUT behavior.
Jim Brown was the one who said there's a difference between a racial remark and racism.
Niqqas are always whining about "someone called me a niqqa." Man...that's hurt feelings. Someone turning me down for a job i'm qualified for because they think I'm a niqqa is racism that directly impacts me and hurts my entire family. That's racism. fukk a racial remark.
nikka I dont care what you think, you one of those people that think black people all gotta share the same opinions, like I dont like Pac as an MC and nikkas always on some "oh that mean you white" when these cac love them some Pac.
Im always, well on SOHH and so far here, calling out racism and of course some of the hate for Lebron is racist but the big portion is cause of the whole way the Heat colluded. Even the facade of Wade meeting with the Bulls and Lebron meeting with 5 teams when they knew since the previous regular season they were all going tot he Heat. The whole thing was collusion and a farce. Thats why I want these homos to lose. But believe what you want

So you think it's a big step for someone to take words and turn them into action? I don't see it that way at all. Words can often lead to someone acting out.. It starts with words and then progresses from there. I have family in the south. I've heard about the shyt that goes on down there.
So I guess if Pat Riley orchestrated the trades for them you would of been happy with that tho right?
agree with you wholeheartedly here, nikkas always talking about "Ill knock a cac out if he says niggga in front of me" like man knock the cac out that didnt give you a job when you were more qualified than the white guy that got the job, cause you were black.

Pat Riley was one of the biggest scumbags throughout the whole thing. This old faggggot met with Lebron as he was still signed and in the middle of a run with Clevland, thats the definition of collusion, I wouldnt even have minded as much if the offseason started and a little while passed and they all talked like lets go to miami, but they knew waaaay ahead of time they were all going there and Lebron and Bosh didnt give their all during the season, Lebron was straight up like fucck it in game 5 vs Boston, thats deplorable. then they met up with other teams, preventing those teams from making their own moves by preoccupying them with the idea that they might sign to those teams, when they all know it was just for show. the whole thing was a disgrace. I dont care about "the decision" or none of that, its the collusion. Also once they did that I was off put by the whole pep rally they had, like this aint highschool

Yes. Most racists are nothing more than toothless bigots. Few people have the power to turn their racism into action. I got into an argument with an old bigot on the train a few years back who came at me sideways on the racial tip. When I asked him "are you effecting my paycheck or where I live?" it pretty much ended the conversation because he couldn't hurt my feelings which is all that he had.
Yes.....it is a big step for someone to turn them into action. Don't make it an easy thing now because you want to win an argument.
Well I do. Most bigots are toothless and powerless. They don't have teh government sanctioning their bigotry for them anymore.
Most people, black or white, dont have the power to act out on racism. Second, blacks don't have a history of economically or systematically acting out as racists towards other groups. Whites have done a great job of watering down the term to make it an "anyone can be a racist" thing to diminish the past as it relates to how they benefitted from it. You can buy it all you want, but I'm not. Racism effects lives. Racial comments are nothing but hurt feelings. I dont' let them hurt me and in doing so, it bothers a bigot who sole means of power is trying to get you mad.

So you're not going to at least verbally confront someone who is using racial slurs/remarks within arms reach? That shyt doesn't slide.
Get over it..

I do....i show them how what they're saying has zero effect over me. It's a racial comment.
Why would I give that the same energy as I would to a racist loan officer giving me higher rates for a loan? Why would I give that the same energy as I would someone who wants to put my kid in special ed because they treat black kids differently?
It's a bullshyt fight. I rather deal with REAL racism, not racial comments. That ain't effecting me. Think about it.
imo this depends on the situation but Im not risking a charge to fucck up a cac every time the word niggga is uttered, thats what these whiteboys want, if I was gonna throw down I probably was even before "******" was mentioned.
edit: my bad you said at least verbally, yes I would
