It's Really Simple Why Older People Seem "Racist" Compared To Younger People (In General) | |
Wookiee666 User ID: 62421844 United States 02/25/2017 07:08 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Forgive me for repeating myself, but I wasn't racist until I got a job with a company that had to hire "them" to meet quota. All of 'em were big bucks. None of 'em did even half the physical labor that us crackers did. Once 3 of us were guiding a 55 ft pole into a hole. I thought to myself, "Damn I'm doing' a lot of work. So, I let go. Proved that they weren't putting any weight behind it. Dude looked at me, smiled, and said, "you caught us, see this", pointing to the back of his hand, "this is why we were hired. No other reason. And we'll NEVER be fired." Warning: JustSomeGuy_42 is a publicly confessed unvaxxed neophiliac .

Quoting: Squonk1960 I'm disgusted when I see these punk Californian college students (SJW's) protest and cause violence and property destruction for an issue that they have no real experience with. Stupid liberalism in young people is almost to be expected. By contrast, when I see libtards as old as Obama and his entire crowd, that's a whole different matter. Liberalism is somewhat cute and quaint in dumb-ass college-aged people. but the stupidity of liberalism rapidly loses its quaintness when the libtardism is displayed in 50 years olds or 60 years olds. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 70974838 United States 02/25/2017 07:34 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Part of it is "Political Correctness". The Left labels a lot of things racist simply because they dont want to acknowledge legitimate complaints or observations. If you find an American community where: 1.Violent gangs control the streets and public spaces. 2.Drug dealing and prostitution occur openly at MAJOR intersections. 3.The leading cause of death for young men is homicide 4.The graduation rate is less than 70% and a large majority of those who graduated cannot pass an 8th grade basic skills test. 5.Teenagers in the community have a higher casualty rate than most of the combat units that served in Iraq. If you see these 5 things in an American community , it means that Liberal Democrats are in charge , and they have been in charge for decades. So whats a liberal to do if someone starts talking about violent crime or failing schools in our inner cities? You pretend the person is talking about race and call them a racist. Well , the list of "racist" things to say just keeps getting longer as it becomes more and more obvious that communal violence and neglect follows Liberalism around like stink on shit. After the age of 30 most people figure it out and stop paying attention to the ever growing list of "racist" things to say. The University of Michigan now considers "where are you from?" to be a "Micro-Aggression" against people with foreign accents ( I'm not making this up ) So now you have a lot of people over the age of 50 who don't know ( or dont care )that it is now "racist" to say anything even remotely critical of violent communities or talk about literacy rates. |

Larry D. Croc User ID: 70736097 United States 02/25/2017 07:49 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I'm well into my 60's. I grew up in the 1960's as the product of a lower middle class environment. NO ONE was "politically correct", ethnic references were simply an identifier. If you were Italian, you were a "dago". If you were German, you were a "kraut". The Polish were "polacks", and so on and so forth. Was it proper? No. Did everyone do it? Yes, without exception. We learned to moderate our language as we grew up, as the civil rights movement gained visibility and credibility. If you misspoke, you apologized. Or got smacked...lol. No one was focused on "micro-aggressions". We weren't taught that we had to "love everyone", we weren't conditioned to "love has no limits". Prejudice is having a negative response without experience. Discrimination is making choices based on experience. I detest lima beans. I've been forced, as a kid, to eat the damn things. I hate the taste, color, look, and texture. Do I "discriminate" against lima beans? I sure as hell do. Am I prejudiced about lima beans? Nope. I think, at the largest levels, "they" have done a good job of encouraging our youth that there is value in being a victim. There is saintliness in being a victim. First time I got "bullied" and complained about it my father told me I had to "learn how to stand up for yourself or you're going to get your ass kicked forever." Today? Does anyone admit to teaching a child how to defend themselves? Or is it "we'll sue!!" "Oh, poor Timmy is a victim of that vile bully Susie." "Socialism only works in two places: Heaven where they don't need it and hell, where they already have it." Ronald Reagan The trouble with our liberal friends is not that they're ignorant; it's just that they know so much that isn't so." Ronald Reagan |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 73387405 I saw once a black arguing loudly with a cop outside a mall in Melbourne Australia. People walking past where staring - eyes bugging - they'd never seen anything like it. When you make statements using generalizations your always inherently wrong. For the most part we haven't had the very strong racially divisive social conditioning and events that have gone down in the US or to some degree the UK , so there are no really strong entrenched positions because of continued historical clashes. We did however have some very poor relations with the indigenous people of Australia when the British first settled and while they had primary control of the laws and policing of our land. One of the things which has happened in Australia is that in the past our Prime Minister has apologized to the indigenous members of our society for those early travesties. The ratio of indigenous to other nationalities in Australia is very small , so the day to day occurrence of encountering such an individual is not common. The Aboriginal culture is highly valued by most Australians and to many a source of great pride as we are an extremely young nation in comparison to the history recorded for all other nations and we rely of the indigenous ancient history as our claim to historical fame. Then there is the welcoming of Indians by slaughtering them and sending them back in body bags. And those that managed to survive the slaughter, they were given shit and dirty jobs despite their qualifications. Generally, they were looked down upon due to the colour of their skin colour regardless whether they were migrants or born here. They all received the same treatment. While the Chinese on the hands were welcomed with open arms and heart and were given free reign to completely buy out every aspect of Australia and given good paying jobs eventhough of the 2, the Indians have a far better grasp of the English language than the Chinese. Yup, you're correct racism in Australia was thing of the past. It doesn't exist. |

Old(er) people have lived longer and have had many more experiences in life. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 70988335 We all start out as babies. Young and naive. We want to believe everyone and everything is good and whole. The older we grow, the more we see reality for what it really is. So when I hear or see some stupid young liberal punk talking about how everyone is all the same and everyone is great, and if you disagree then you are racist and hateful, I just shake my head and laugh in disgust. After all, it's natures way, whether as humans or in the animal kingdom, to steer clear of potential dangers and threats. And it is past experiences and memory that helps us to identify potential threats. If I've had bad experiences with a particular group compared to others, then I am going to watch that particular group for potential danger. It's very simple really. The pathetic part is the amount of older people who still hold onto this false view of life and want to pretend we're all the same and every bad behavior or action can be justified. This is 100% fact. Life experiences make old white people seem more "racist". But blacks are generally taught to be racist as children by their parents. As they get older, they get less racist. |
