Racism is so stupid. Did you expect your race to be the only one on this tiny planet?

[disgruntledseagull]

I don't think you guys understand per capita either.

There are 100 people and 10 of them are blue and the other 90 are red.

One red man and one blue man each commit an illegal act.

The red man is jailed for a decade but the blue man is given leniency and let out in a year.

The same blue man commits an illegal act as soon as they release him.

He is let out in a year.

This goes on the same way until the red man is let out of jail.

If you read the statistics on this without any details attached you will think that blue men commit 10x the crimes as red men per capita, when in reality the fact is that blue men are given 10x the opportunity to commit crimes.

Do you believe in Asian Jesus

(How should I answer this question? Oh, I know!)

If by Asian Jesus, you mean Middle Eastern Asian? Yeah. And by Middle East, I mean the Middle East that was created in 1901. So, whatever it was called before that & before the man-made Suez Canal of 1869 was created to separate Israel from Egypt. So, those people of Israel who were scattered to parts of Africa, Asia, & some parts of Europe to escape the Romans? Yes. One could describe Jesus as Asian from a certain perspective with modern terminology.

An extra tidbit, the story of Aladdin is actually that of a Chinese man who thought that Jafar was his uncle. Jafar was Ethiopian. All the characters just have Arabic names despite the setting being in China.

Seems to me that long ago, the people of that area had some sort of genetic similarty to those of the Orient & Africa. And since Miriam & Yoseph hid Yeshua (Hebrew names for Mary, Joseph, & Jesus) in the land of Lower Misr/Mizriam (which is located in the North because the modern world map is actually upside-down), they must have resembled the ancient Egyptians in some way if they managed to blend in & successfully hide from Herod. Not to mention that the nation of Israel were people that consisted of Israelites and those from other nations who came to worship with them (proselytes); which included Egyptians amongst some others. They also had children with women of foreign nations when they were not supposed to. So, by modern terms, the Israelites of old would had been considered multiracial to a small degree.

(This is because there was no division of "race" back then. I may need to do further research, but the invention of race came about during the middle or late 1700's by Europeans. There were just tribes, tongues {languages}, & nations during Biblical times. This separation of "race" during the 1700's resulted in the more distinct "races" of today. That and the genocide & rape done by European colonizers who forced their ways on their own people and then on the rest of the world. But if you know anything about genetics, it was impossible for a people with recessive genetics to genetically overtake other groups who had more dominant traits. Thus, the genocide was more effective since the rape wasn't as effective as they may have hoped. Ironic that they invented race only for their own invention to reveal they were genetically recessive. Isn't "race" a stupid construct? A construct fueled by fear, resulting in hatred.)

And if ppl wanna use Noah's sons to explain that "races" existed before, then just know that some of Japheth's descendants are considered to be the progenitors of the Chinese peoples. Ya know, the people who resembled certain Africans during ancient times because the creation & division of people based upon color had not happened yet. Don't folks understand that after 2 generations of "racial" mixing, the children look different from their grandparents? A lot of historical statements aren't full truths. The reality is that separation of "races" is like how humans bred dogs. All of these dog breeds we have today didn't always exist. They came about by invention, separation, & selective breeding. And humans made the foolish decision to treat themselves and others like animals, creating the idea that there are different breeds of humans that we now call "races."

if you're a white person taking pleasure in the idea that Trump voters of colour are experiencing racist violence from white trumpers because "they got what's coming to them" I don't think you're anti-racist at all, I think you were just waiting for an acceptable target, and you're also fucking weird.

Bad Person Deserves Punishment For Their Sins give me a fucking break and get yourself out of the fucking catholic church. you're all prison abolitionists until you see someone you don't like.

"markedly fewer children from the non-western rural sites"

In a desert region(no limpid pools of natural standing water to gaze into)

where the fuck are the commonly found reflective surfaces for these tiny children to use to become aware of their own reflection's details exactly?

This is rural Kenya.

Does this look like the sort of place where a 1-5 year old gets daily exposure to a clean mirror while having a clean face????

"Oh they didn't notice the mark on their faces they must be retarded"

No you are retarded if you can't see how these conditions would make anyone a bit less aware of their own face than they would have been otherwise.

If you had only seen your clean face a double handful of times in your short five years you wouldn't really know what the fuck it looked like either.

Oh and about the Fijian kids I mean it says right there they are taught to obey and not question.

So an adult puts a mark on their face and they don't remove it they just freeze.

I mean yeah they have been taught to obey adults without question.

Of course they just freeze :/

I get that you were following official artworks for that (and hoyo is a colorist company) but drawing sugilite that gray is racist...? Where is his color

i went back to check and saw that not only is the skintone off but the colors for the bathrobe and obsidian's hair are not what i remember using

most likely suspect is my past self rushing the drawing because of sleep deprivation (the proportions aren't the best either looking at it now)

they're not severe errors but i was cross checking on different screens and it was a lot more noticeable on my phone so you may have the same case

I love kabumisu, but yall focus on mithrun's development too much. What about kabru. What about the things mithrun helps kabru with. What about the things kabru realizes about himself through his interactions with mithrun. He people pleases so hard he accidentally starts thinking about himself, that's such a funny concept. why aren't there more pieces around it.

Why Critical Race Theory should not be taught in schools, Truth and real history should be taught instead.

[edwinisms]

it’s actually so wild to me that this fairly quirky YA type show gave both of its main characters deaths that can, in one way or another, solidly be considered hate crimes. they were both flat out murdered as a result of being A) gay and effeminate or B) brown (south asian, specifically) and you could argue whether or not those kids thought of it that way in the moment or whatever but the bottom line is that they would not have been in the situations that killed them if they weren’t of their respective minorities. like legitimately that is a ballsy choice for this kind of netflix show, let alone for the two Main Characters, and i respect it big time

[txttletale]

me when i actually care about racism and in fact care about it so much that i straight up forget what the original controversy was and confidently assert it was something completely different because i definitely care about it beyond using it as a bludgeon against the Evil Trannies i constantly call pedophiles

Out: Black people can act civilized like everyone else

[unlimitedbutchworks]

wild as fuck how trans men on here can openly and flippantly accuse random innocent trans women of being pedos to drum up moral outrage against them quickly, and when people start to point out that hey, that’s insane, she’s never done or said anything like that, these shithead dudes are like “well she said something racist too or is into incest or raceplay or something else that’ll stick despite not being on any of her blogs so it’s like whatever” and then their audiences are just like ohhh ok and everybody forgets and forgives the blatant pedojacketing while keeping the fury of it after being mollified by whatever progressive sounding idpol they shit out. disgusting!
