Am I racist?

What about Jews being lawyers or doctors? Or being good with money?

Do you know why their noses are so big? It's because air is free.

Jewish culture emphasizes education and intellect as tools to economic success and social influence from very early age. Thus, they tend to be attracted to jobs with high social impact and financial return. It is something to admire and emulate, not be scared of.

I support stereotypes, but I don't think any type of race is better than the other. ****, people call me a cheap Dutchman all the time, and any Jew jokes you've heard about money get told about us dutchies all the time. I've never thought anybody was a racist bc of it, but maybe that's just cause I'm white and it's not possible to be racist against whities.

No. You don't care because no one has ever ****ing persecuted you for being Dutch.

Meanwhile, Jewish neighbourhoods steal deal with vandals having swastikas spray-painted on them. Don't equate your plight to those of the Jews.

None of these are examples of racism. To be racism, there has to be feelings of superiority towards another race. What you are describing is prejudice. Still probably not a good thing, but it's not racism.

If you consider the other race INFERIOR because of the prejudice feelings you have (which we all have in different ways), that is racism.

It is not true that most people fit the stereotype. For example, show me evidence that the British have worse teeth than other people. You can't, because it's completely untrue.

Same applies to most stereotypes. For example Jews are one of the most charitable groups in the West. It takes a 5 minutes search to verify that fact. Additionally, even though they tend to be well off financially, they are among the very few groups who vote Democrat because of their ideals of social equality even though it isn't in their economic interest.

Stereotypes are just a tool that helps ignorant people to remain comfortable in their ignorance.

I am not saying that all or most of the people fit the mold but enough to that people make stereotypes about them. there are plenty of people from England that have bad teeth that keep the stereotype going and confirm racist thoughts for people. Even if statistically they dont. Either way its besides the point I am making. I am saying even if 99.99% of a race does something its still racist to say all people of a race do something. We are all individuals.

I agree that people should get educated about facts but I dont think we need to look up stats about a race to confirm or deny something about them. They are individuals not a group and should be treated as such.

I for one am shocked that you're taking this so seriously. Nope, I'm not. Dala on a crusade to be the most self righteous person of all time, again.

I don't think mexicans are inferior for trying to scam me. I applaud their ballsiness. I just don't want to deal with it.

Serious issues need to be dealt with srsly, brudda. This one hits home- there's loads of racist folk here in Canada. Especially against the indigenous peoples.
