I think blacks and whites shouldn't marry or date: How is that racist when it's founded on truth?

Question

1. Black/white couples have the highest divorce rates of any IR combo

I think blacks and whites shouldnt marry or date: How is that racist when its founded on truth?

2. Black-White couples make the least money out of all the IR pairings.

3. Blacks and whites don't really find the other attractive on average.

Black men rate white women the least attractive out of all women and Black women rate white men least attractive after Asians. Both white men and women rated blacks least attractive behind Asian men.
4. BAD HISTORY & BAD PRESENT- When a group of people enslaved, killed, and tortured your ancestors for the last 200 years and then had Jim Crow laws and laws to deny you basic human rights to this day why the hell would you want to date them? From police brutality, the prison system, school redistricting, unfair wages, etc... whites have and continue to put black Americans at a disadvantage. Are black people really going to pretend that most whites don't feel the same way about blacks as they did then? Is the recent Nazi rally and the majority voting for the racist Trump not indicative that most see black people as not worthy of even living with basic human rights? They see black people as sub-human. To them blacks are either mere entertainment for them or a beast to be tamed or killed.

No seriously, there's something mentally wrong with black people who want to date whites. Seriously of all people to date or marry, THEM?

Whenever I say this to people they claim I am racist. I can't be racist technically, but I am prejudice. No problem in that. I see reality for what is and I personally any black person who wants to date whites is suffering from mental illness either that or severe low self-esteem.

Racism is the belief in the superiority of one race over another, which often results in discrimination and prejudice towards people based on their race or ethnicity. Today, the use of the term "racism" does not easily fall under a single definition.
The ideology underlying racist practices often includes the idea that humans can be subdivided into distinct groups that are different due to their social behavior and their innate capacities as well as the idea that they can be ranked as inferior or superior. The Holocaust is a classic example of institutionalized racism which led to the death of millions of people based on race.
While the concepts of race and ethnicity are considered to be separate in contemporary social science, the two terms have a long history of equivalence in both popular usage and older social science literature. "Ethnicity" is often used in a sense close to one traditionally attributed to "race": the division of human groups based on qualities assumed to be essential or innate to the group (e. g. shared ancestry or shared behavior). Therefore, racism and racial discrimination are often used to describe discrimination on an ethnic or cultural basis, independent of whether these differences are described as racial. According to a United Nations convention on racial discrimination, there is no distinction between the terms "racial" and "ethnic" discrimination. The UN convention further concludes that superiority based on racial differentiation is scientifically false, morally condemnable, socially unjust and dangerous, and there is no justification for racial discrimination, anywhere, in theory or in practice.
Racist ideology can become manifest in many aspects of social life. Racism can be present in social actions, practices, or political systems (e. g., apartheid) that support the expression of prejudice or aversion in discriminatory practices. Associated social actions may include nativism, xenophobia, otherness, segregation, hierarchical ranking, supremacism, and related social phenomena.

I agree. Blacks and whites need to separate for good. As a black woman I don't like being around whites. I have white guys hit on me sometimes and I find it very disrespectful that they think they can talk to me after all of what they've done to my people. But most are entitled sociopaths anyway.

Don't worry though, more and more black people are waking up and wanting to separate from whites for good. The movement is growing bigger everyday :)

Wow I guess I read here more than enough shit for today.
People should go for whoever the fuck they want. If you knew how (outdated) statics work, you'd be careful throwing your judgements here.
Also don't bring up history if you don't know what you're talking about. I'm not denying that it didn't happen. It absolutely did and it is horrible. However you can't just generalise. Ain't no one could control the past.

Or you could just keep your nose out of other people’s business and keep your judgmental and idiotic prejudice to yourself.
None of these couples want your opinion, and you don’t need to go into a relationship you personally don’t agree with so it’s a win-win

You should share links rather than images, so we can assess the source material.
1) divorce rates aren't necessarily based on the race (s) of the married couples. Of course, racist misperceptions of family, friends, classmates, coworkers and neighbors can add pressures that non-mixed couples don't have to contend with.
2) I know several interracial couples, all of whom together make over $100k annually. So I'd really like to know how that data was gathered and compiled.
3) Generally suggesting people of different races don't find each other attractive is an ignorant argument against interracial dating and relationships. Obviously, if 2 people choose each other there is a mutual attraction. Whether or not others see the attraction and agree is completely irrelevant.
4) Again, obviously, not all white people are racists, and very few, if any, living whites have ever owned a slave or actively participated in slavery, or even racial oppression. Trump was NOT elected by a majority of the U. S. population, or even by the majority of voters. He was elected by electoral college.
You absolutely are racist, and there's no exception for what it means to be racist. Anyone who holds beliefs about people based on their race IS racist, no exceptions. Now, you're absolutely free to hold those beliefs here in the U. S. But claiming your skewed, ignorant perspective is "fact" by hand-picking stats that support you hate and fear isn't just ignorant, it's dangerous. That kind of crap is exactly why atrocities have occurred and continue to occur. It's why some of Trump's supporters can be openly racist. You're feeding into a broken system. thanks for that. How about you just pipe down unless you can actually contribute something positive and meaningful?

Why do you care what someone else does with their life? If I want to marry a black woman how the hell does that effect you especially a way in which you need to delve into data? Sounds like you're just an asshole. If you want to marry a toaster I support your decision. You can fuck it, I'll still support it. I'll think you're stupid and weird but I'm not gonna stop you from doing what you want to do.

See, I can't disagree with you at all, but I would say I'm less radical in my belief. Let me explain:

Yes, I'm a Black man, and yes I do believe for the most part long term it would be better if we mostly deal with each other. Most white people are right-wingers, and you know that right-wingers hate Black folks, that's just a given. I do agree with you there. I don't however think they're all psychopaths, that's too harsh. I would say most left-leaning white folks are relatively friendly and I haven't encountered any problems with them for the most part, but I still maintain that I would rather be in a Black marriage than anywhere else. I think what we are starting to see from tiktok and other places is an emergence almost of interracial relationships, and maybe that's why people for some reason think it's trendy, but I always take it with a grain of salt, because even if let's say both partners had genuine interest for one another, the chances of them divorcing are high due to cultural differences. I will maintain that people are free to do what they want to do at the end of the day, it's their choice, bit we as Black people need to learn how to get along more often because it will definitely be more beneficial for us.

aggle · Answer

Personally I think this its all little out of the ball park.
From your results it doesn't really tell us much. I mean black and black make less than black and white. Should black people not date other black people?
It's a little authoratarian to state the two races shouldn't be in relationships together. Espically the part saying "No seriously there is something mentally wrong with black people who want to date whites" as if simply being in a mixed relationship makes you somehow mentally wrong.

Most normal people tend to date based on attraction, wether it's black, white or Asian I don't see the connection between mental illness and being attracted to another race.

I'm not saying your racist you could just be simply prejudice but I can't deny I see why people may call you a racist for your views.

A lesson I've learned about life from observation is that whoever you hate will inevitably end up in your family, the universe has a funny way of dishing out poetic justice.

Fell free to continue hating Blacks OP but I promise you your future daughters will come home with Tyrone and Jamal from the projects and have their biracial kids

Hey genius... based on your stats and logic, I wouldn't want to date WHITE folks because of what they did to other human beings, in general, either. But it's ok for whites who want to date blacks, right? But if I got a date with a black girl, then she'd be mentally ill for dating me, right? You're a bit fucked up. You think that because people in charge of the government, or people in power, oppress other people based on their color or race, that ALL people of the same race think that way. Have you ever considered that if EVERY marriage were a mixed marriage, and every child were mixed blood, then all this bullshit would have a better chance of ending? You just perpetuate it.

readywriter · Answer

These sources seem legitimate sources and they don't make judgements just deliver facts. It certainly seems that interracial marriages have horrible tract histories. Other than Asians mixed race family incomes really suffer. But your take went political with the pictures. That was disappointing. It has to be crazy love, they think, that marry other races under the studies guidelines. better to marry with race. Of-course these studies do not address age, education, and location. Not that those items can be used as excuses. members of mixed marriages also make those choices.

The problem with this is that it's not all statistics. People can't choose who they fall in love with.

"I can't be racist technically," And there's the problem right there. You're delusional. Your whole analysis is a post hoc ergo propter hoc error. You confuse cause with effect. You assume your conclusion.

Actually, wmbf have the LOWEST divorce rate of any IR. At least get your statistics right. Further, statistics are ONLY applicable to POPULATIONS, not individuals, so...

BatmansWife · Answer

Why do you care on why black people date white people? People can't control what happened in the past. Why aren't people talking about black people slaves or the countries that still own slaves?

Anonymous · Answer

I wouldn't marry a white girl. I just think most of them look ugly to be real. Only black queens for me.

strangytie · Answer

Straight people have the higher divorce rate, abuse kids the most, and have the lower incomes. By your logic straight people shouldn’t be allowed to be married.

Splintercell · Answer

I think your your wrong. The number of black and white couples have grown and succeed today. It was a culture norm back then. It’s about the character of the people not the color of your skin.

I would not worry about it. racism is slowly dying out as we all become the same colour. Slowly, this need for diversity means inter breeding, and that means a uniform colour eventually.

I wonder what will become politically incorrect to take its place?

Sounds like you're just bitter about choices other people make that don't impact you at all.

But, unless any of those statistics hits 100% or 0% it means there *are* success stories.
