Has anyone and a particular event turned you into a racist?

[Anonymous]

I have people around me that I can't shake them off and they happen to be a different culture to my own. I'm forever hearing about it and I'm sick of it.

They don't have any awareness of other people and the country they are in and push their lifestyle and culture onto me despite asking to leave me alone and I've had enough. Its feel like torture having them in my life and they can't take a hint so now I hate them and anyone of that culture I think.

Never a racist, no. I've had a few relationships and friendships that were so poorly handled that it's made me cautious about being involved again with people of certain cultures though. I've since met people of the same race/ethnicities and we got along perfectly fine.

The way those bad relationships ended left a REALLY bad taste in my mouth. Unfortunately I do think that race and religion played a role... so it's kind of tough to ignore those elements of it.

Hellll no. I've never been racist & I never will be. I think I'm too intelligent to be racist. Many can think in lower levels of consciousness like that & be completely fine. But I would feel uncomfortable. There's always a deeper reason for everything. And I never pretend to treat something as a fact simply because it's the most convenient option. My brain won't let me. I'm too scientific. An ideal one in regards to how empirical my thinking is.

Did the leftists' PC culture and DEI policies work? You are witnessing firsthand the divisive and devastating affects of those policies. Different races and ethnicities were actually getting along better pre-Obama times. It wasn't perfect, but we could crack racist jokes and laugh about it as kids. I know because I lived just outside Atlanta in 2005-2011. This snowflake culture has ruined our nation.

Snowflake culture? Bruh you got scared of a dude praying in an empty parking lot, you're afraid of black people living near you and can't stand anyone you think is an illegal immigrants (Hispanic specifically).

You talk a lot about snowflakes, snowflake.

Yeah sort of. When I traveled to certain regions of the world and the locals saw and treated me as inferior because I'm White. And the worst part was they justified it or claimed it wasn't racist

[FunkyMonkee]

No, if anything, I've gone FROM being one (not that I really ever was one) to NOT being one simply because I just don't see the point in hating someone just because they had no control over the colour of their skin.

[Asker]

Not the skin colour, just the culture. All they speak of is their culture food, celebrations and clothing that sort of thing. I don't enquire as I don't care but they still speak of it when it isn't fitting or appropriate to do so. I haven't had any experiences with other people of that background but I also don't have the energy or patience to want to.

[FunkyMonkee]

In that case, no.

Yes, democrats have turned me into a racist. I support President trump so I must be a racist because I am opposed to affirmative action hiring and DEI policies.

[DrPepper12]

Yeah growing up white in the 70s & 80s non diverse suburbs made me racist like everyone else. Leaving that place in HS n college changed my perspective.

[Agape93]

Nope. I'm a bad person but I'm not pathetic.

[jahaims]

Ignorance is the only source of racism

[anmari2001]

Not consciously
