Miss wrote Racism just shows a lack of intelligence really. So whenever I hear someone being racist I just laugh because they probably have an IQ below 80. And that's what interests me, dumb people.


Don't wanna start an argument, but I have friends that are "racist" and they are very smart people.

Are you sure they're not just educated? Because educated and intelligence are very different.

Since they're racist I'll assume they're just educated. You need to think logically to be intelligent and racism has no logic, therefor, your friend is probably just educated.

I live in "the ghetto" you could call it and I am the only white person in the neighbor hood besides some old folk and my mom. 75% of my friends are African-American and I stand up for them and when someone is racist at all in any way I always want to strangle them because someone like a white person will most likely try to avoid my friends because they are African-American and it sickens me and like I said... I want to strangle them [Exaggeration]

Lets put this into perspective.
If I graduate from Harvard with a 4.0 GPA, wouldn't I be intelligent?

I don't agree with the point you made.

I wouldn't necessarily say so honestly because I know a few people that graduated from my high school (yes I know it's not Harvard, but it's just a point) that graduated with a 4.0+ and some of them are really dumb people, lol. They're slow as in thinking wise, they're not really quick to react to things, they don't really listen to important things, they tend to just be really dumb, lol. I guess it's just different for me since I know people like that.

You proved my point. Saying that all "Racists" aren't intelligent could be true in some circumstances, but is completely relative. If you grew up in the bad parts of Detroit, it's going to be much different then growing up in a rich, successful family.

Honestly, I'd want to "severely hurt" someone who's racist because being racist is like saying your race is perfect. BUT.. everyone's entitled to their own opinion and I can't stop them.

I honestly don't get how people find racism offensive.

Like, " Oh no! He called me a 3 syllable word! I'm so offended I better run away and cry " Like, no. Racism is the exact same as being a general ****. You call people names. If words truly make you feel sick then all I can say is wow. I truly don't understand how people can feel that way.

I went to a public mixed race school so I heard it all about " racism " and to me, no. It's not offensive. It's just words. Calling someone the " n word " is like telling someone to F off. It's a word. Nothing more. Like I said, I don't know how people can even care about it and even think about how they think it's offensive, even to feel sick because of it. I will never know.


Racism is a lot more than just being called a word.


No it's not. It's just a word. It's something emotional, not psychical. Yeah you can argue " well people will kill someone of another race " but that's not racism, that's sheer stupidity.

Racism doesn't exist. It's just dumb people that get offended by words. Also, majority of " racism " comes from the shortening of country names. E.G " n word " for Nigeria, " p word " for Pakistan, " c word " for Chinese. Etc.

I live in Britain so if someone shortens downs that word and says " You're a Brit " am I supposed to get seriously butt hurt and cry racism? No. It's a word. Get over it and stop whining.

Racism has always been a big thing and most likely will stay around for a while! If not for ever


It's not a good thing and does cause problems. But at the same time I think it's some that black people use to there advantage. Sorry if you disagree
