I’d argue that making excuses for “ghetto culture” and pretending that poverty, crime and substandard living conditions is tied directly to someone’s race is inherently racist. Big city elitists like to blame racism for class problems to divert the attention from them exploiting the system for their own gain.
Not at all , it's not exclusively African decent blacks either. Plenty of white & Pakistani descent kids , round my way , copy this " culture " of ignorance.
This makes me think of white guys who are singing and they grab their crotch and slouch around with that ghetto gangster attitude that black men have when they rap. It's a disturbing sight.
It's definitely more vulgar when a woman does it. I feel like she implies she's a whore when she does it even though she's probably not trying to come off that way.
It’s poverty stricken people and how they were brought up, very few get out of it, it just continues generation after generation but it’s certainly not racist to not like it
I don't think it is race neutral. I think black people start trends that others copy. Although the hippies of the 60's came up with the term Rap. The black culture changed the term which meant to talk or have a conversation to do it in musical form.
Not at all. Ghetto thug culture is something inherent to al blacks or latinos and its something many of us minorities would like to see eliminated. So no, if a white person dislikes ghettos that does not mean they're racist.
No because look what they do to their own neighborhoods burning it down looting robbing stealing. You know all the facts my friend you’re a lawyer you’ve seen the news

That's like saying not liking rednecks/hillbillies/white trash means your anti-white. People of all races can act classy or trashy.
@VanillaSalt "I'm the type of individual whos happiness comes from the happiness I spread to the people around me." I don't really see that at work here.
I think that discrimination is discrimination, whether it be a race, culture, social customs, religious practices, etc. Since what you're discussing isn't focused on race, it isn't racism, but it still is a cultural prejudice.
I chose "E". Violence and murder are characteristics of "ghetto culture" in my country and have nothing to do with a person's race.

No. But that might mean you have no respect for someone, who was born penniless broke to loser parents and crawled out from the ghettos and the bottom of the gutter.

No. Ghetto culture is violent, non conformist, conflict driven, and had contempt for any kind of established authority.
Ghetto culture is killing people by the bushel every weekend in our major cities.
Members of just about every race lives in ghettos theyre just really poor and dangerous neighborhoods
You told us what we already know, and you didn't answer the question that was asked.
No that’s classism

Have you noticed that some girls do the same crotch grabbing moves? Seems I've seen Miley Cyrus do it, among other obscene moves.
They are the fools mammy was talking about. ha ha

Ghetto thug culture is NOT* something inherent to al blacks or latinos
How can wearing a pair of underwear and a pair of pants be the basis of a racism claim? Either they fit, or they don't!
It's not racist and I agree with what you said. I feel the same way.
No because where I live whenever I hear that loud obnoxious thumping hip hop music it's almost always some stupid white guy in an SUV.
Nope it's not. But people nowadays consciously conflate culture and racism just so that they can broaden who they get to call racist.

I should update that. That was back when I had hope for humanity…
Also stop stalking me lol

There are just as many white trash wiggers involved in ghetto culture, don’t make me laugh.
If your culture is to swear, be violent, be a gangster and listen to shitty music, I'm not going to like it, for sure.

Ghetto culture is the same as white trash culture.
So no.
