Is someone who is racist is friend with a black person, what does that make them.

[The Red Next Door]

what is your opinion on that? He don't actually hate black people but the stereotypical blacks.

[Muzk]

I think they fucking fail and should learn to differ racism from anti humanism



Also using it as some kind of excuse is no fucking reason for childish racism... and if the black guy shares his views, punch both

[Pirate turtle the 11th]

Well this is a loaded topic really. Everyone is prone to making slips of racism its ingrained in us by society and chances are unless your a holy nun of leftism your going to be prone to slippage just as many people are when it comes to sexism and homophobia , this obviously requires leftists to keep each other in check to minimized this but until society is changed people unfortunately are going to maintain small amounts of this crap. For instance as LS can recall I once thought bolt the Olympic running champion was Nigerian when infact he is Jamacain I strongly suspect this is due to the fact that somewhere in the back of my head it went something like Black guy running fast = Nigerain, although minor its an example and to avoid this splilling over into our politics we as leftists must absoultly keep each other in line about stuff such as this.

However if we are talking about people who outright run about calling black people niggers who like to eat watermelons etc or is just outright nasty then the guy in question is bassicly a **** in need of a kicking if he acts like this infront of the black friend then its quite sad as it shows that the black guy must how low confidence to have to hang around with a loser such as this or if they guy is only a racist fuckwit infront of others whites then the guys a coward.

what is your opinion on that?
he's an idiot

[Dr Mindbender]

what is your opinion on that?

it makes them a selective racist.

I've met white people who say they love black people, but hate asians and various other combinations.

[The Red Next Door]

i am the black and don't share his views

[The Red Next Door]

and he not really racist if he associated with blacks, he just have a bad opinion of them and by the way don't get mad about the comment i made in our club disscution

[#FF0000]

and he not really racist if he associated with blacks, he just have a bad opinion of them

That pretty much means he is a racist.

Just because a racist has black friends, it doesn't make him any less of a racist. It's like the anti-Semites who say "some of my best friends are Jewish". It doesn't matter. What matters in determining whether or not a person is racist are their views on other "races" and ethnicities, not the ethnic composition of the people they associate with. A misogynist who is married to a woman isn't any less of a misogynist for marrying a woman.
So no, your friend is not any less racist because he has a black friend.

What? Having a black "friend" doesn't mean someone isn't racist. In fact, its usually a cover up and excuse they use to spout racist crap.

Oh well, I guess a man cant be sexist if he has a mother, sister or daughter. Wow that should solve all the problems of prejudice in the world. Seriously though being friends with blacks, gays women doesnt make any less prejudice. I bet that guy probably does not even consider the hurdles his black friend has to jump over in life. i m sure he usually thinks that black people create racism in their own minds, its just a figment of their imagination. Coming to you I wonder what your opinions of black people is.

He don't actually hate black people but the stereotypical blacks.
This statement says a lot about you. What are stereotypical blacks?

[communard resolution]

Well, Luftwaffe and Gestapo chief Hermann Goring employed a Jewish fighter plane pilot, who was a personal friend of his. When confronted with criticism over this, Goring said: "I decide who is a Jew and who isn't".

So I would guess that a white racist who has a black friend is still a racist. Such examples just serve to highlight the absurdity of racism.

Perhaps, but nobody's talking about black "friends".

It's quite common around here. Usually in small towns people are more racist then in big city's, while the small villages are usually around 98% 'white' people. So the common rethoric is:
"White Power! All foreigners should leave the country! Oh, except for Ahmed, he's a cool guy." (Usually, that Ahmed is the only non-white they actually know, because they live in a fucking small village).

Still makes them racist skinheads.

It makes them an inconsistent cowardly hypocrite.

[Stranger Than Paradise]

Yep it really doesn't make it alright to be racist just because he has a black friend. A lot of misogynists have wives. That doesn't mean they are allowed to do what they do.

[*Viva La Revolucion*]

If he has a 'bad opinion of them', he is a racist. If he thinks there is such a thing as 'the stereotypical blacks', he is a racist.

I don't think it's a good idea to group people together like that just because they have a different type of/amount of melanin in their skin. And anyway, black is such a general term - it isn't even a race. Would someone from Yemen be classed as black, or is it just people from Sudan or Ghana? The whole thing's a bit stupid really.

[Die Rote Fahne]

I have a bad opinion of Jews....but I'm not an anti-semite?

See the lack of logic?
