Why are some groups, some people, some countries given a pass? (allowed to be racist)

Also see a related post I started here where I discuss how I was denied a job because I am white:

Sorry to hear that, but I don't think it's that uncommon.

Welcome to the PC world of officially sanctioned discrimination. I am a WASP male, and have experienced the same thing. The best thing to do is to try to be an entrepeneur. Don't work for a large company which has EOE (unEqual Opportunity Employment), and definitely don't work in a government job (same reason). You are a second-class citizen. In our society, that's just the way it is. I expect that it will get worse before it gets better, but that doesn't mean that I can't try to fight around it. Good luck.

I'd say you have written a pretty accurate analysis. You cannot say that blacks are racists. Slaveholding is not all that bad in Sudan. Islam is a religion of love.

[machman]

Because, you can't be racist when you have been oppressed. It's a fact, look it up.

Question: "Why are some groups, some people, some countries given a pass?(allowed to be racist)

Answer: Spiritual bakruptcy leading to the need to be elected, leading to the need for bloc votes. Secondly, the populace in general is egalitatian even to the point of accepting death rather than surrender this 'need'; a debauched populace; wide spread tolerance(the inability to say yes or no, the inability to take a stand, the inability of our society to excrete); warm, fuzzy, lets discuss anything etc. A people sans limits to their personal conduct. Thirdly, the balance has now tipped in favor of the former outcasts and they are moving into power. In order to strengthen this power they will bring in more.

Harare - Duncan Cooke, became the latest victim of Mr Mugabe's thugs. Mr  Cooke, 25, was attacked on Butleigh Farm, 80 miles north of Harare, by  six government officials who were inspecting his employer's land for  resettlement. When he asked them to move their car to make way for a  tractor he was slashed with a panga, receiving serious head wounds.  Outside the private hospital in Harare where Mr Cooke underwent surgery.

Black rule in South Africa is carrying that once-proud nation deeper and deeper into savagery and depravity.  South Africa has the highest incidence ofrape of any country in the world,  and one inevery eight Black South Africans is infected with HIV or hasfull-blown AIDS. 

The belief is widespread among Blacks that sex with a virgin -- or more generally with an uninfected woman -- will cure AIDS : supposedly the woman's uninfected body draws the infection out of the body of the man who is having sex with her.

  Because the HIVinfection rate is far lower among White women than among Blacks,  White women increasingly are the targets of Black rapists, as are infants of either race.  A recent series of gang rapes of South African infants, as young as five months old,  has caused shock even in that crime-ridden country, although there has been very little news in America about the rapes. 

The media here, having played the key role in bringing Black rule  and subsequent ruin to South Africa, largely have ignored the consequences of their destructive work.

The world seems to have adopted an unwritten code that states that some groups are simply superior to other groups. The best group consists of black-Muslim-lesbian-feminists, and the worst group consists of straight-white-Christian-males

I have to disagree. "The world" hasn't adopted these notions, only Americans. And third-world "advocates" (e.g., U.N. thugs, NGO lefties, World Bank beggars, DemoRats generally) are all too happy to make use of this uniquely American weakness to grab as much political advantage and cash as is possible.

The world is not against us, but our PC fellow citizens certainly are.

May I add in there 'New Zealand'. Our government is so emmersed in shame over past 'injustices' that they are forking out enough money to minorities to bring our economy to its knees.

Thus the reason we 'cannot afford' an air combat wing. PC gone mad.

The Australians have got it right!!

"The best thing to do is to try to be an entrepeneur. Don't work for a large company which has EOE (unEqual Opportunity Employment)"

I run my own security firm with three other guys, we lost out on a job because we're white. It seems harder and harder to avoid.

I am getting sick and tired of the hypocrisy and double standards. I've noticed it even more after Sep. 11. You see these stupid liberals on TV; we (the US) do A + B + C, no wonder they hate us. If I were to give reasons why I hate them I would be racist.

[Michael2001]

Thanks for posting that. Unfortunately, it won't be seen by many. It's not as important as "Muslim gets paper cut in Israel".

"We have no one to blame but ourselves. Probably the biggest mistake (since Adam took apple) was allowing women to vote."

Are you actually a moron or are you someone who enjoys disrupting certain threads?

[Red Jones]

very well written; I agree with the one comment about how if you are white and male it is best to not work for either the government or the big corporations because you will be discriminated against.

[JoeBloggs]

If a Catholic doesn't want one of his offspring to marry a Protestant or vice versa he is regarded as a bigot, but if a Muslim doesn't want one of his offspring to marry someone from another faith, the saying goes something like "well, his religion is very important to him". Strange that.

... in South Africa is carrying that once-proud nation deeper and deeper into savagery and depravity. ...
...subsequent ruin to South Africa ...

You do know the difference between South Africa & Zimbabwe, right ?
(other than being Marxist shi+holes)

Being a Rhodesian I think I do....

Those of us who have Irish ancestry should be able to say whatever we want, then, since the Irish have been oppressed both in their own country and here (i.e., "No Irish Need Apply").
