Racism And Double Standards

<div class="IPBDescription">Hypocrisy and the like</div> This is about the sort of double standards we see with those claiming to be proponents of equality and tolerance for all.

<!--QuoteBegin--></div><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'><!--QuoteEBegin-->For one thing, I have never heard of White Nationalism before, and my instinctive reaction was "oh jeez, not some racist Klan crap", but you surprised me, Afterglow.

There's nothing against the poster of this statement here, (very much to his credit he made an intelligent assessment of the statements) but as an example, his instinct was to assume that it was something highly racist. This is a growing trend in the U.S. (and I would assume in other countries as well) where having racial pride if you're of one race is lauded, but degraded if you're of another. It's ok to have groups, clubs, or organizations for members of a certain race only, but if you're of a different race and try to make a race only club, you're immediately attacked, and your group shut down. In some cases, in the U.S., universities give more weight to applicants of one race over another, (a less qualified applicant of one race would make it in over a more qualified applicant of a different race) and the same can be true when applying for a job.

My question is why is this the case? Why is this not only tolerated, but applauded and accepted by society? Post your thoughts.

Please, to anyone who is just going to call others racists, you aren't welcome in this thread.

    just to make a quick point:
    White Nationalism is a term often used by members of groups like the KKK and other racist organisation, I am not saying that is necesarily always used in this way, however it often is, and thus don't get down on some one believing that white nationalism = racism (b/c it often does).


    As for Afirmative Action (what you described is PART of AA), well there are problems with it. Some people see it as revers racism (It is often much esier to find scolarships if you are a minority, simply b/c there are few scoarships reserved for white/predominently white groups like the Daughters of the American Revoloution(DAR))., I personaly have some problems with it, though I am not all out for aboloishing it, mainly just twaeking.

    I Am a WASP (White Anglo-Saxson Protestant, though I am not actualy Protestant, thats what my family is) From NYC, AKA The Majority (not realy, but often looked upon as they are), thats just to get some of my biases out in the open <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    I like the concept of working for equality, Programs like Headstart and others that aim to get underprivlaged children an extra advantage are GREAT! I would like it if everything was colorblind, but it isn't, thus these programs tend to be aimed at Minorities (minorities still have statisticly lower incomes, thus lower income neighborhoods, thus worse schools).
    However, I frown upon the idea of making life easier for minorities, simply b/c I don't think that this is doing them any real favors often. Giving a job/place in a college/whatever to some one who is less prepared then a non minority, is sorta silly. If some one isn't going to beable to cut it in a job/school, then letting them in dosn't do anything, aside from setting them up for a fall.

    What I would like to see is more programs aimed at helping raise the education level of every one. Stamping out of racisim (of all sorts) would be nice, but it aint gona hapen any time soon, so untill then I will setle for the less perfect meathods.


    Oh, and As for things like 'white people' groups, well, there are alot of them:
    Itallians, Irishs, Germans and others all had clubs at my school (admitadly my HS was Bronx Science, farily diverse and liberal). We also had:
    Indian, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Black...

    heck, here is the list:
    <a href='http://www.bxscience.edu/student_activities.jsp' target='_blank'>http://www.bxscience.edu/student_activities.jsp</a>

    The 2 that I was a member in?
    Role Players
    Science Fiction Fantasy (originaly just SciFi, pronounced as skif ee)
    Those were actualy 2 of the more diverse organisations, after all geeks come in all colours <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    I'm guessing it's some sort of social guilt. It's a similar thing with sexism - every other advert seems to be the "Stupid Man, Clever Woman" model. If they switched it around, it would be called sexist.

    you mean like bimbo jokes snidely? =3

    while being anti-racist is good, you've kinda highlighted the problem that most people overlook; positive racism. Proper equality gives no advantages or disadvantages, negative racism (the one most people refer to) hurts or puts at a disadvantage people based on race and the lesser acknowledged positive racism basically hurts or puts at a disadvantage people based on NOT being of a race, albeit indirectly, as it goes out of it's way to place those of the race(s) being discrimated for in a better position.

    Ideally applications to jobs wouldn't have things asking of your ethnic origin (notice most job application have that?) and a heck of a lot of other things.
    It's like scales... if you push one down others go up, if you pull one up the others go down. It'd be better if people learned to drop the whole sex/race thing entirely but lets face it; it ain't happening =3

    If people would get over the fact we are all human and not another race then I think we would be better off. Racism can and does go both ways. I applied to a technical college that specialized in the field I want to get in but I was denied because I am not at least "35% native american"

    What the **** is 35%? <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    A double standard does exist; and not only for race, but for sex also.

    I am part white, part asian, and a little american indian. I have been assaulted because I am white and called names because I was asian.

    I think a major cause of the double standards are activist groups. The groups are formed to do good, but often go over board. This is from Afterglow's post in another thread:

    <!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->
    So the girl wanted to start a club that was basically a white version of the NAACP, but the NAACP shut her down. I don't know if she had ulterior motives when forming the club, but it is hypocritcal for the NAACP to shut her down.

    ....

    NAACP = National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.

    Her group would not have been for the advancment of Cacasions.

    Personaly, I think that there is ALOT missing from that story, seeing how as caucasian is purly based on skin tone/hair, it has nothing to do with ethnicity.

    I find it kinda wierd that some one would want to create an organisation for abunch of people who have absoloutly NOTHING in comon...

    weee, google is fun:
    The NAACP infact DID NOT suported the statments against the club. The statments came from the then president, who later was forced to resign.

    And all in all... caucasian club?
    Its silly.
    Caucasians include all of Europe, Parts of Africa, India, South America, and ofcourse the majority of people in North America. Heck, Caucasians are found in almost every part of the world (be they indigenous or not).

    And just remember, I am still rather sure that the main reason why I got into my college is b/c when I put down caucasian as my race, they probably missread and didn't see the cauc part <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Letting people of the same race congrigate into one group..is bad...I should just make a club called. Humans For Humans. Ment on breaking up any orginization thats based upon helping one group of ethnic backgrounds.

    Maybe the words in the world that refer to race of any kind should be turned into swere words. but that wouldn't work anyways.....

    basicly what we need is a entire revamp of the human scicology of the world, before we blow up everyone out of racism, etc. In all honesty I think I see more rasism today pressant than in any other time.

    Meh, I've got no problems with people being racist, as long as they aren't hurting anyone else. I'm also a firm believer that you should be able to choose who you want to work for you/who you want in your school/who you want living with you, etc... If it's YOUR property or YOUR business, you should be allowed to decide who you want there.

    For instance, not that I'm saying I'd do something like this... If I were to start a business and decide that I don't want any Asians working for me, I should be allowed to decline any application from an Asian. It's MY business, I created it and therefore I should be allowed to decide who works for me.

    The fact of the matter is, we live in a racist world. Every single one of us is racist (definition: has preconceived beliefs - stereotypes - about a specific race), because we have grown up subconsciously accepting racist thoughts into our psyches.

    Don't believe me? A study was performed in which subjects were shown a video of a man coming around a corner. The man could have any one of six objects in his hand: three dangerous (knife, gun, etc), and three harmless (e.g. cellphone). The man could either be black or white. The task was simple: the subject was to determine as quickly as possible if the man was a threat or not.

    The study found three things:
    1) A black man was more likely to be mistakenly identified as "dangerous."
    2) Subjects were quicker to correctly identify a "dangerous" black man than a "dangerous" white man.
    3) The above two facts <i>were true regardless of the race of the subject!</i>

    Another study had subjects watch a videotape of an encounter between two people in the hallway. The encounter was staged and included a short back-and-forth conversation followed by one of the participants pushing the other.

    If the pusher was black, the subject was more likely to describe the push as "hostile" than if the pusher was white.
    _______

    This is just an example: even those who claim not to be racist usually are, at least subconsciously (I'm not saying *everyone* is racist, but I'd bet most people are). The decision to treat all races fairly is a conscious effort to overcome innate racist tendencies.

    Someone who believes all races should be treated equally probably has a lot of guilt to deal with - again, not always conscious. They feel guilty because inside, they are likely still battling with their own ingrained biases. As a result, a pro-white opinion may get shouted down - all in an attempt to over-compensate, really. Another element is that any kind of pride touches to the competitive nature of man - pride in one's own country/race/belief is an unspoken statement that "I like my race because it's better than any other." So even if it's pro-self and not anti-other, there is always an unspoken element of anti-other.

    Perhaps pro-minority movements are more acceptable because they are not perceived as this kind of one-upmanship. As an interesting tangent, perhaps those in the majority take subconscious comfort in the fact that as long as there are minority groups pushing for *equality*, their group (the majority) must still therefore be the superior group.

    Keep in mind, though, that even minorities create extremist groups, and generally society has been no more accepting of them than it is of the extremist majority groups (e.g. the KKK).

    I really have nothing to add to coils post - he pretty much covered all the targets there. Only thing I'd like to comment on is affirmative action -

    Perhaps one of you well-read people out there can remind me which book this came from, but here it goes:

    "9 white applicants and 1 black applicant apply for a job. One of the white applicants and the black applicant are selected as the top two candidates - both equally matched. However, the black candidate is selected for the job, due to affirmative action. The problem with this however, is that all *nine* of the applicants go away feeling victims of affirmative action, not only the sole candidate who truly was."

    That was a paper from an economics prof at some university I can't remember. Honestly? I think affirmative action is hurting more than helping. Personally, I'd like to know I got a job based on my *skills* not on what I look like ( unless it's modelling or pornstar or something similar). Just my 2 cents.

  • MavericMaveric Join Date: 2002-08-07 Member: 1101Members
    To add-on to Calldown's post, affirmative action can come and bite you in the arse as well, because if you hire someone who isn't properly qualified they could, can, and will possibly fail at their job. Pray that that job does not involve a humans... no, <i>anythings</i> life. o.0 All i want is the person with the [instert job here] is to actually know what they're doing. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Here, i'll give you one way better. I'll list instances and you can do the research
    yourself and find out why that is so.

    Affirmative action. <-- #1 on my list.
    The 15 year old girl in Ohio for wanting to start the white club in her middle school.
    The NAACP called her a racist yet the club was open to everyone- blacks, Mexicans
    everyone.

    www.fbi.gov Check reports on Black on White crime vs White on Black crime.
    Why is it that there are no marches for any of the white people slain or murdered?
    If you line up a white male and a mexican male one from america and one from
    mexico i'm pretty sure you'll be able to tell the difference. But on reports Mexicans
    are labled as white. I think thats a little rushed to catagorize people dont you?

    Example: A black kid is killed by a white man- Its spotlight on Tv, Everyone hears
    about it. But when the situation is reversed why is it that noone notices? Because
    the Tv doesnt play it.

    Take a black male- put him in a stright white Neighiborhood. No doubt the cops
    would be called on him in less then 3 seconds. Cops can only ask what are you
    doing- and check for warrents nothing els.

    Take a white man put him in an all black community what would happen?

    I'd provide you with an answer but i'd be banned for it. Or even worse, Labled a
    racist. Or i'll prolly be labled a racist just for writting this post. All races are not
    the same. Whats so wrong with saying it>? WE ARENT ALL THE SAME

    To go further not all people are the same. When your forced into a
    melting pot things happen. As the melting grows and certian races deminish in
    size what do you think happens to the under dog>? In 2050, 46 years from now
    White people will be a minority in the USA, By the massive increases of people
    Illeagles comming through mexico the date goes down as it becomes sooner.
    You might say i could be dead in 46 years from now- But what about your children?
    what about the world there going to grow up in? Try and make it better. Thats not
    geared twards just white people. Thats for everybody.

    I'm not telling you to go get a gun and prepair for the enivitable "Race war" thats
    gonna whipe us out, thats just stupid. Thats what the KKK and nazi groups alike
    all prey on. And there recruits are people who are often looking for a strong sence
    of family because they are lacking in that area. I've been targeted by blacks, i've
    been targeted by skinheads. What my goal is- is Wnisim. You dont have to live in
    fear and constantly being targeted just because of your skin color. I watched the
    movie Malcom X with Denzel washington- His speach just before it skips to his
    house were' he's seen loading a carbine mag standing by a window. It was a very
    powerfull speach- directed at black people to shapen up. If a white person said that
    How quick do you think he'd get shot down? Good movie, if you care about politics
    rent it, see how it can be transfered to Wnisim.

    The media likes to report things that surprise people. Due to unconsious racism one is likely to be more shocked that a white guy killed a kid than that a black guy did. Similarly, you rarely hear about it when poor black children are abducted, but when richer white children are, its spotlight news.

    Afterglow brings up some interesting points.

    Are we all the same? Should we accept our differences, or ignore them?


    Most importantly, if whites do become the minority someday, and the same "positive" rasicm we carry towards ourselves continue, what will happen to us?

    Will whites become the next oppressed race, in an almost cruel twist of fate?

    Most importantly, what can we do about it?

    White nationalism, while interesting, just says "Unite!" but really, will this solve anything, or just make problems worse...?

    There is no positive or negative racism.

    rac·ism P Pronunciation Key (rszm)
    n.
    The belief that race accounts for differences in human character or ability and that a particular race is superior to others.
    Discrimination or prejudice based on race.


    As far as this definition goes, favoring one race over another is just as racist as disliking one race over another.

    The ultimate goal is to either not care or simply disregard races, not putting anyone ahead of anyone else because of it.

    I think its interesting to note that in the studies posted earlier, the stereotypes persisted accrossed racial boundries. It may well be that whites will still recieve preferential treatment, even after they become the minority.

    Personally I think there are more important things to worry about, like if our (as in american citizen, not white) rights will continue to erode in the name of safty. But if your going to worry about it, then WN is pretty much the way to go. Don't spread hate messages because people will ignore you, and it'd probably be best to compare your situation with similar situations for opressed races in the past and offer similar solutions.

    Yes, whites will probably be a minority soon, but blacks will also still be a smaller minority. The estimated majority will be Latino, and after them the projected majority is Chinese. Unfortunately, I read this about a year ago and I have no way of supporting it, so I don't blame you if you don't believe this information.

    I'm against affirmative action but I'm for helping those in bad neighborhoods. I've seen some of them first hand in Brooklyn (I was practically living in one), but it wasn't all black. The main ethnic groups in the area were Dominican, Puerto Rican, Haitian, African-American, Italian, Irish, Russian and Jewish (you can't go outside without seeing a Hassidic (sp?) Jew down Ocean Pkwy.). That's a lot of races in a small area (Kensington, to be exact), but there was no racism there. So mixing races is not bad. The problem is when an area is predominantly controlled by one race and suddenly members of another race start moving in. If you're white and going down, say, Fulton St. Mall on a weekday, you can't get into some of the stores unless you can name the rap they're playing. I guessed right and got in for 5 minutes. This is kind of a generalization, but one of the main reasons I like black people (at least the ones I knew, you can't call me a racist for writing about the blacks I actually knew/know) is because they tend to be more direct, unlike whites with all their niceties and extraneous conversational garbage (it gets old, I think you know what I mean) they'll just come out and say what they're thinking. It's quite refreshing not to have to listen to someone prattle on for 10 minutes before they get to their point.

    By the way I'm a WISA (White-Irish-Slavic-Atheist).

    On a side note, I decided to watch Hanity and Combs last night. They were interveiwing a black radio host that was fired were racist remarks. She said that she was "racist", "didn't understand white people", "and thought that blacks and whites should not date". I belive that is accurate to what got her fired. Anyhow on to my point. During the interview she was asked if she thought she was racist, her re play was "Im' black, I cannot be racist". This wasn't the first time I heard this though, on two other ocassions I have heard someone claim that they cannot be racist because they are black.

    Whites will no longer be the majority in 45 years.......

    So?

    1) You should look at a distribution of wealth or income as compared to race. In 1960, blacks possessed 1% of the nation's wealth. In 2003, blacks now possess... 1% of the nation's wealth (<a href='http://www.bridgew.edu/BridToday/2003/Nov/ogletree.cfm' target='_blank'>source</a>). The average American CEO makes 400 times what the lowest-paid worker in his company makes (source: textbook for a class I took called "Elites, Leadership, & Society"). CEOs, by the way, are nearly all white men. Whites control the vast majority of the money - both wealth and income - in this country, and studies show that the rich are only getting richer. So even if whites become a numerical minority, they will still control the vast majority of the nation's resources.

    2) What does it matter? In the end, we're all human... and quite frankly, we all ought to be able to get along together.

    What obvious reasons? I won't deny there are probably differences between races, but that doesn't mean they're any less better company. As many of my friends have been white as not.

    Why do you care if whites become a minority in the future? How would that make it a worse place for your children?

    I just clicked on that link about whites becoming a minority by 2050... And what it says is actually the exact opposite. It does not say that Whites will be the minority, all it says is that the percentage of whites will decrease a good bit. Even then, the article I read said that Whites will still make up 50.1% of the population, but at the same time it says Whites will lose the majority when minorities make up 49.9% of the population.

    2 things to note about that:
    1) 49.9% is not a majority
    2) Whites would still be the majority, they would just be very close to losing be "outnumbered" if you combine ALL minorities, but that does not mean Whites would lose their "majority" status.

    What's funny is that Fox News has a headline that is quite a bit more accurate: "U.S. to Be Half Minority by 2050".

    There will always be a majority, but that majority does not lose its status until another group ( singular ) surpasses it. So once again... Those statistics do not say Whites will be a minority.

    There's nothing against the poster of this statement here, (very much to his credit he made an intelligent assessment of the statements) but as an example, his instinct was to assume that it was something highly racist. This is a growing trend in the U.S. (and I would assume in other countries as well) where having racial pride if you're of one race is lauded, but degraded if you're of another. It's ok to have groups, clubs, or organizations for members of a certain race only, but if you're of a different race and try to make a race only club, you're immediately attacked, and your group shut down. In some cases, in the U.S., universities give more weight to applicants of one race over another, (a less qualified applicant of one race would make it in over a more qualified applicant of a different race) and the same can be true when applying for a job.

    My question is why is this the case? Why is this not only tolerated, but applauded and accepted by society? Post your thoughts.

    Please, to anyone who is just going to call others racists, you aren't welcome in this thread. <!--QuoteEnd--> </td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'> <!--QuoteEEnd-->
    Coming from South Africa I can maybe offer some additional input to this discussion.

    Basically, you have a situation both here in the US and South Africa, where one race has suppressed/dominated/enslaved (use whatever term you will) another race for a length of time.

    So as a consequence, even though we're living in more "enlightened" times where the governments at least, are not actively supporting this sort of behaviour the _legacy_ of it all remains.

    So unfortunately things like white on black violence will almost invariably draw more attention than the reverse because people instinctively have a knee-jerk response that says something like "its happening all over again..." or "the oppression isn't over...". Regardless of whether or not the violence was racially motivated in the first place.

    Also, certain members of the minorities that were suppressed, have learnt that playing the "race card" can be a powerful means of control. So you will have those individuals that claim racism/discrimination where there was none to be found before. This of course turns what wasn't a racial incident into one. And people on both sides of the argument tend to get defensive and generally things go downhill with increased racial tension.

    My view on things like Affirmative action is basically this. I think they were necessary to correct an unfair situation _initially_. However, they must have a time-limit whereby they are phased out, because they are a source of racial tension and really have no place in a society that claims to be "color-blind".

    Not exactly correct, but the issue is mostly one of semantics.

    1) A majority (for instance, when speaking of percentages in an election) is defined as greater than 50% of the total.

    2) A <i>plurality</i> is defined as the largest fraction of a group, which is less than 50%.

    If 3 people run for president and A gets 40%, B gets 35%, and C gets 25%, A wins because he received a plurality of the votes.

    So if whites become less than 50% of the population, they will in fact no longer be the majority. They will, however, still be a plurality.

    "When you look at 2050 and possibly see a large Hispanic population that doesn't speak Spanish anymore, being Hispanic might be something very different from today," said Roderick Harrison, a demographer with the Joint Center for Political and Economic Studies (search), a research group that specializes in studying minority issues. <!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->

    were born there. (Japan or China forgot) due to mass over-population. and lastly
    Any person outside the white race who has intercourse with a white women- That
    child- will carry on the traits of the person who mated with her. I.e. Always a black
    child in a black/white couple. Asian eyes, the whole thing. but what? just lighter
    skin? Then the child isnt accepted by anyone because the child looks so different
    from anyone.

    To prove that point on the job applications they've had to put "Other" in the race

    protestors that were opposed to the war on iraq? Remember those? Just when we
    started bombing and sending in troops why did they all come running back as
    quickly as they could? GEE lets think about this.

    Or Racial equality. Why dont a group of 12-30 protestors that say "we're all the

    believe "White people were created by a black wizzard back in the day to hamper

    I am not telling you to distance yourself from all your friends. I'm not telling you
    to hate, to slay, or anything els. Just be aware of the changing times. You (and
    most other people- Vast majority of the population) are taught self hate. If you
    stand up for yourself YOUR a RACIST. No. You can have pride in being white.
    You can have an All white community and not allow others in. Blacks do it. so do
    mexicans. Whitey does it we're racist. And if your not white and you begin speaking
    about the "gated communities" with the gold bars and the dimonds everywere your
    obvously not informed. All white people dont have millions. Check around for
    "White flight" in a yahoo search. You will *LOVE* the results. I promise you.

    I was not for the Racisim when it happened the first time, nor will i be for it when/if

    good at this.

    On the whole I find this to be untrue. Most of the people of other races that I meet accept me just as readily as white people. This may not be true everywhere however.

    Hatia(sp) or Jamaica- with the random "White people Maceddie(sp) slayings and
    decapitations" Some people wont even allow you to enter there country unless you
    were born there. (Japan or China forgot) due to mass over-population. and lastly
    Any person outside the white race who has intercourse with a white women- That
    child- will carry on the traits of the person who mated with her. I.e. Always a black
    child in a black/white couple. Asian eyes, the whole thing. but what? just lighter
    skin? Then the child isnt accepted by anyone because the child looks so different
    from anyone. <!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->

    Whats wrong with people of "mixed descent"? Really man, what are you trying to say? All I've been able to get out of the last two paragraphs is "Some countries won't let you in, or will rip you off first chance they get" and "Children of mixed descent aren't accepted by anyone, as proof, there is an 'Other' checkbox on job applications".

    You haven't said such a thing, and I believe the statistics would make doing such a thing seem fairly dangerous. Though I doubt it would be much better if I were to wander into an all-white ghetto.
