So you think it’s possible to get along better with certain races or is that racial bias in disguise?

[muscularbumblebee]

More of a debate question but do you really think some people get along better with certain races or when they say that you think they are being racist without actually meaning to?

Just curious really, not saying I do, as I think I get along with almost anyone regardless or race

I think that this whole race conversation has been inflated so much you've got everyone walking around asking themselves if they were just accidentally racist 100 million times a day.

In the words of Morgan Freeman, stop talking about it and ignore the talking heads.

[muscularbumblebee]

True but just something to be aware of I guess

[bakajana]

I have friends from different 'races'. I believe this has nothing to do with it, it depends on the individuals

People often get along better with similar people. Race could be an indicator of upbringing. Aka, Asian people are probably raised in an Asian culture. Nowadays we're mixing it all up so it starts mattering less and less.

One more thing. As our cultures assimilate, we do bring elements we like with us. Mine in particular is St. Patrick's Day. For a Mexican or Ethnic Chinese who wants to wear green and a Shamrock, it's not the divisive Cultural Appropriation. It is the unifying Cultural Appreciation.

For sure, it's crazy how much the world changed in the last 20 years. In another 20 I can't imagine what it will be like

[Dargil]

@TallAnon I have written here that the entire Western World is heading toward cultural and economic collapse. My guess is the population will be cut in half. There will be anarchy and feudalism while we rebuild. Hopefully we can avert nuclear war.

[TallAnon]

Hmm, I'm not of the same opinion. I think people will get more lazy and the population decrease we will start to see is centered around suicide.

[Dargil]

Two unpleasant prophesies. I hope we are wrong.

[Dargil]

Excellent progress was made in the 20th century through the 1990's. Obama and Biden have set race relations back 50 years. We got along for years before they stirred the pot.

Its not really a question of race, but personality.

[motownplayer2000]

Yes. You vibe better with people who look like you. And share the same culture as you. It’s not a bias per say.. it’s human nature

[Anonymous]

It shouldn’t matter, if they say that then something is off

[Leibstanrdarte]

you really rate humanity high up

[muscularbumblebee]

What do you mean?

[Leibstanrdarte]

if you think bias is involved, how can it be. Just a theory
