Re: Just want to know what&why?
My definintion of Racism is the book standard definition of it.
I am not racist. I hate it because it devalues the human being and experience. Yes, it is important, because as humans we are all equal to each other, despite any differences we have such as skin, ethnic origin, or whatever deals with us biologically.
rac·ism
ˈrāˌsizəm/Submit
noun
the belief that all members of each race possess characteristics or abilities specific to that race, especially so as to distinguish it as inferior or superior to another race or races.
prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against someone of a different race based on the belief that one's own race is superior.
"a program to combat racism"
synonyms: racial discrimination, racialism, racial prejudice, xenophobia, chauvinism, bigotry, casteism
"Aborigines are the main victims of racism in Australia"

Re: Just want to know what&why?
To a degree I am a little racist. But do I actually hate any race and think I am superior? No. Every race has some points over others.
I find hating on someone simply for their race, religious standing, or whatever is fucking stupid and they are the real morons. I hate those people.
It should not be of any importance what race, religion, sexual preference you are. Just be you (but don't be an asshole)

Are you sad? It's not something you need our opinion for.

I say laugh in their face for being blinded by that childish form of ignorance and then walk away hyera.
Re: Just want to know what&why?
You shouldn't feel sad. You're not the one at fault here, Hyera. You didn't choose to be who you are so they can't actually criticize you for something that you were born with. Racism is quite illogical. As a South African I should know that better than most.

It's logical when you think of how it stems from the human nature to survive and dominate as well as the power plays in politics. How do you control people? You make them feel less than what they are.
However, it's an awful thing, and as our civilization progresses, we push more and more to understand and accept civility, civil rights, and how to properly treat a human being as a human being and not some lesser entity.
Re: Just want to know what&why?
What if someone said "Your English is ugly. so, don't speak my language anymore".
(or it can be other language. french, solvk, Japanese,hindi,chinese & etc)

That's not logic, that's just primal instinct. Logic would tell you that cooperation is the best way to strive.

They should actually be encouraging and helping you to speak their language. If someone tried to speak my language, I would praise their efforts. By trying to speak another's language it shows that you're expanding your "world" and is interested in the other's culture. It's admirable.
