>> [_] Anon 3480325 >># Good riddance said the town despite the Racist Tree serving the community selflessly for decades. Its wood was used to help build a home for blacks. Eventually one black learned of the historical nature of their neighbors house and burned it down. "Black Lives Matter!" Yelled the black. The fire spread through the community taking many lives and destroying many homes. The diversity hire firefighters apparently had zero training upon employment and did not seek to better themselves after employed. "I sure wish we had a fruit tree to eat from said the now homeless and impoverished white person." Eventually the white person obtained an apple and nurtured a tree from its seed. The white person taught the tree the folly of being near blacks. Some say the cycle continues to this day.

>> [_] Anon 2786783 Interesting exposition. Although it had pretty sarcastic and ironic humor, the story portrays an ongoing covert social problem, inherent to human beings (say what you will), each passing day more and more demonized. I think it's highly prejudicial to compare petty behavior with national socialistic fascist ideoly of pre-WW2 germany. Being son of a german myself, I often find myself being ridicularized by my so-called "friends" for what some germans did in the past. Sometimes the "jokes" get pretty agressive, with one or more of them screaming to everyone around that I hate jews without any reason. But what am I even talking about wtf

>> [_] Anon 2786804 >># I don't. I stop awkwardly laughing along and just tell them they are just being assholes. It's not OK to discriminate against anyone based on their looks, like denying apples to black kids. But it's a shitty thing to do to mock someone of german ascent born in the 90's of being a Nazi, or saying "germans are nazis".
>> [_] Anon 2786806 Also, remembered this: Recently I've read in the news that it was discovered that a man from my country, a very respected and competent history teacher, had a nazi symbol pattern drawn on the bottom of his pool, in his home. It was stated he also collected some relics from nazi germany, such as medals and coins. He NEVER discriminated against anyone during class and outside, NEVER tried to justify the killings of innocents and was a fun guy who had a nice family. People said he was a great teacher. When this became known by the ones around him, people ostracized him, called him a nazi, despised him. An ex-student of his was interviewed, he said he would've never imagined that this could be true. He said he was profoundly dissapointed in his ex teacher and from now on disgusted by him. A news post in facebook about this gathered hateful comments, ranging from tons of people saying he should leave the country, be arrested and even killed!! Oh, the irony.

The difference between Stereotyping and Racism is that Stereotyping is a broader term, while also involving a specific form of prejudice. Racism only deals with race.

Affirmative action does go too far in addressing issues related to hiring and skin color, which is why now it has to be proven that there is a specific instance of discrimination being addressed along with a specific response, rather than a vague "hire more minorities" agenda. There is nothing inherently prejudiced about a mental picture of a certain race associated with a certain job when those things are associated often enough in real life.

It's reasonable to have a prejudice against a foaming dog or a bear because those specific visual traits - the foam, and being a bear - are actually associated with specific behaviors and threats. The association between a profession and a skin color isn't an inherently negative association, like that one is. If I'm told to picture a car and I picture a blue one rather than a red one, this could be because I own a blue car, or because all my neighbors own blue cars, or my favorite car is blue.

No, but it instantly shows that you have prejudice on the basis of race. You say you believe racism comes later, but it really doesn't. What you want is for racism to be inherently bad, rather than just a thing, and at the same time you don't want yourself to be guilty of something you view as inherently bad in all forms. So you distance it from yourself by claiming that your racism isn't REALLY racism, making excuses and putting excessive qualifiers on it.

If I'm told to picture someone with sickle cell anemia and I picture a black person, this isn't racist because it's a disease that affects a vastly greater number of black people than of other skin colors, and is famous for doing so. If the impressions we have and the way we visualize things are based on empirical evidence, and skin color is actually a relevant trait, it's not racist. The trouble with the criminal association is that a police force that is biased against black people creates the impression of empirical evidence that black people commit more crimes, when in truth there will be more innocent people getting frisked for no reason, and criminals of other skin colors getting away with whatever it is they're doing.

While I'm not speaking out against the idea that blacks aren't dumber or worse in any aspect by nature, even if the tree thought this way, it really wasn't an excuse to deny the apple. I doubt a young child would shank or otherwise harm the tree, and it seems silly to think that he'd deny dumber children apples. The tree is behaving in an irrational way in it's hatred of Sam. And while it certainly has the right to refuse apples to anyone it pleases to, the children have the same right to deny the tree their business.
>> [_] Anon 1846679 >># i'm pretty sure you don't own it to anyone to explain your beliefs, internal/external (in)consistency. also i'm pretty sure that being able to provide something of value has nothing to do with being consistent or logical?

Even if blacks are dumber, more likely to commit crimes than the other children, those hardly apply to a child. Hell, the tree would be assuming he was one of the majority of blacks who are that way, though in this case, that might be a safe assumption. Also, why hate a dumb person, especially a dumb child?

Not racist in the sense of "I believe blacks (or whoever) are genetically inclined to be less intelligent than whites," because there is some evidence for that. But still, why should we hate black people because they're dumber? If that were officially acknowledged, what would happen? Obama would still be President, he isn't dumb, but even if he were, you can be dumb and president. All I can think of is that people could say that and not be shunned from society, and Rev.

>> [_] Anon 1835683 I kind of liked it, made some kind of sense I also liked how it's ok to call the tree a Nazi but not a black kid a nigger. I always suspected I was slowly becoming stupid but this made me sure, oh well.

>> [_] Anon 1814910 wat
>> [_] Anon 1814929 i get the principle they're trying to illustrate, but the analogy is oversimplified. some people are irrational. you're not going to change everyone's mind, but you can try and change as many as possible and otherwise try to create a society where everyone has equal opportunities. that might mean boycotting a business, even if it doesn't result in a business owner not being racist anymore. you'll have a hard time defending the stance that if blacks hadn't boycotted businesses that discriminated, somehow they'd be better off if there was no economic incentive to reform jim crow laws.
