Racism - Definition: Racism Evaluation
Google ^ | Today | Freepers

Posted on 08/27/2016 7:44:00 AM PDT by dila813

Google Definition: 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.

Traditional Simplified Definition: the belief that a race is inferior or superior to another race


TOPICS: Chit/Chat
KEYWORDS: racism; trump
If you read the definition, I can only conclude that Trump and the Republicans aren't racist and that Democrats are.

1. Republicans: You don't need the government, you can do it on your own 2. Democrats: You need the government, you can't do it on your own 3. Democrats: People of color need special preferences to combat this country's history of racism and overcome performance/cultural barriers. ~~ Everything I look at screams that Democrats are racist in every way.

Trying to keep people enslaved to the government because they can't do it.

They constantly remind these people their are inferior and everyone is out to get them. No one will help them but the slave masters in the Democrat party.

So, most of the women at the Rio Olympics in certain running events; most of the most successful NBA stars, they’re products of a racist system that imagines they have certain physical characteristics related to their ancestry.

Racism is the belief that race determines destiny and duty- one’s station in life. Purely defined, racism is value neutral. The values added to it are almost always malign and wrong.

They have certain physical characteristics related to their ancestry. That is a truism regardless of who or what one is.

In practice racism is as dfwgator defines it. I would tweak that a wee tad to say that racism is not saying “how high” immediately when a liberal says, “Jump!”

Racism: Having preconceived notions about an entire race of people regarding specific negative traits in the absence of supporting empirical observations or statistical analysis of data.

So for example, if one group represented 4% of the population but committed over half of all murders, and over three quarters of all random murders, then someone claiming that the group were violent thugs with poor impulse control would not be racist. Likewise, if a person identified a group that was 8% of the population but committed nearly 100% of all rapes/ sexual assaults they would not be a racist if they stated that group had a proclivity towards being rapists. OTOH, if someone said that all members of a particular race kidnapped and sacrificed children, were in conspiracy to control the worlds wealth, or smelled bad, they are probably racist; likewise if one group accused another of systemic oppression, elaborate conspiracies to rig the entire social and economic system against them, and special privileges granted them, they are most certainly racist.
