Racism and hate have been and always will be part of life. There is nothing you or anyone else can do to stop it as sad as that may sound.

However, racism isn't doing anything to hurt out world except the people in it, it is just hate/words deal with it and move on. There are much more important issues going on in our world then racism.

It's better now than it was 60 years ago, that's for sure.

I don't know if I agree! I understand that 60 years ago racism was really bad but I mean now its getting worse with all the ISIS stuff and such.

I just found it funny that black people get to talk shit about white people, but as soon as a white person opens their mouth and talking smack about a black person, it's racist.

People don't know that it can be racism towards white people as well, but as it is now, it seems like it's only the white people that's doing it wrong. And all the other people are ''victims''

ISIS are racist in the same way that a murderer is guilty of assault.
ISIS want anyone who doesn't agree with their ideology either dead or enslaved. Calling them racist is an understatement and it doesn't really apply to the kind of racism people think of when someone is called a racist.
When people think 'racism' they think the KKK, not ISIS.

Unfortunately, people don't tend to think of Islamophobia as Racism. The 'You can't be racist against a religion' argument has muddied the waters on this issue.
Are there people who dislike the doctrine of Islam without disliking Muslims as a people? Of course, I count myself among them.
But are there also people who dislike the doctrine of Islam as well as any brown skinned middle eastern who looks like a stereotypical Muslim? Of course.

I don't think racism ever gets less or more prevalent in the world, I think it simply takes different forms in different countries.
You have to be very specific when talking about racism, otherwise people are bound to misinterpret what you are saying, or insert the kind of racism they have encountered the most in their life into what you are saying.

Easily the dumbest shit I've ever read on TTG.

This post might as well have said "I don't know shit about shit, so I'm just going to point the blame to racism, because that makes sense".

I'll tell you what really causes war, and unhappiness. It's the assholes who run the world who want you to think the real cause is racism, when in reality you're doing exactly what they want you to do, which is take the blame away from the real monsters.
