What do you think about racism?

Racism does not only take the form of hatred, intimidation, or violence. You can also be called racist through scorn, bullying, or by removing other people from certain activities and groups just because you see where they come from. Racist behavior is actually a human defense mechanism when anxious or feeling insecure. Someone acts racist to make his position seem more important and valuable in the eyes of others

I hate racism! Everyone in this world is created equal. We all came into this world as babies and all of us will die in whatever date or manner and when we die we all become skeletons that look exactly the same.

@longwu23 Reports of discrimination and racism happening in the US and in Europe is very heartbreaking and frightening at the same time.

@gamayngbaki Correct, true, right. We live and die and that's it. We are young today and tomorrow we will also get old and helpless and that is the time those bullies will realize that saying "do not do unto others what you do not want to do unto you" .

Racism has been going on for many many centuries. It is so saddening that even until now, some people do not know they are being racist and they think it's just a joke.

In a way I feel like referring to other humans as "races" is odd given we are all the human race but then I know race refers to biology, cultural and sociological aspects. But it wouldn't be good to not refer to them as different "races" because it would be disregarding biological, cultural and sociological aspects of other people

@longwu23 Why hate or bully those with black or brown color. Why harm those helpless, old, black or brown when not doing any harm to others. We are human and not animal to act as one.

Unfortunately racism is always there and may not be resolved in a short time. Welcome to myLot!

Hello! Welcome to MyLot! I don't approve racisms. Being rasict is one thing, acting on it is another. Such violent behavior need to stop.

Dont know whats there to think about. One among many ugly and disgusting human parts, people full of hate and anger and bitterness. Unhappy people. In normal world we wouldnt even have to discuss this, there would be no thing known as racism. But world we live in, unfortunatly, is far away from normal...
