Black people can't be racist.

The European got to where he is now technologically, NOT because he oppressed native Africans.

The native African is where he is now technologically, NOT because he was oppressed the European.

Please correct me where I'm wrong.

Excuse me! The Greeks and especially the Romans "enslaved, tortured, discriminated and sometimes hated- just because the indiginants have not the same level of education"

So Africa did not benefit from Colonials?


London is not a British name it is Roman.

Difference is, 2000 years later the Roman roads still exist in one form or the other.

Looking at Africa it's pretty hard to conclude that it benefited from anything. The place is a toilet. It didn't benefit from colonialism. It also didn't benefit from liberation/independence. Compared to other parts of the world that where colonised by the old European empires, north America, Australia, even south America. In these parts they achieved independence by various means and have done relatively well.
 
FYI Don't confuse the concepts of censorship and rights to speech and private property.

You can't censor someone on private grounds, that assumes you have the right to say whatever you want on private property, which you don't.

The only reason for the existance of freedom of speech concept is because of the existance of public property.
 
It's not that blacks can't be racist, it's just that no one takes racism against whites seriously. It's like female on male rape, it's not considered as serious as male on female rape, most times it's just laughed off. It's unfortunate but it's just the way things are.

There's a difference between racism and discrimination. Discrimination can happen both ways because of a variety of reasons of which racism is just one.

Racism is the viewpoint of superiority in terms of race. Discrimination can flow from this.

The black people of today are discriminating more because of a feeling of retribution. Not so much because of pure racism.

So, yes, black people are not racist ... except if they are feeling that they are superior to white people ...

How many people in America, Australia and South America are still indigenous?

Many in South America. They may have mixed with the Portugese but the big nose genes of the Incas are still in them.

Discrimination is not another form of choice. It is based on assumptions that are made before getting to know someone. Which is biased and ignorant.

o really, if I choose pepsi over coke then effectively I discriminate against coke. I usually stick to foods that I know, for example I would never trust someone if he offers me raw meat to eat, I do prejudge and discriminate against raw meat, you can call me biased and ignorant, but I prefer sticking to what I know.

I'm not really a conservative, when it comes to choosing whether or not to eat raw meat or fried meat, I'm going with the latter, I call it educated guessing.

+1 for taking words out of context!
 
To call someone a dog is one of the biggest ways of belittling and ridicule in many black cultures, comparable to calling someone the "K" word.
If more whites would understand black languages they would be surprised how often they are called a white dog.
No racism???
 
Compare the wealth of people in Africa to Europe - there's the answer

To which whites will answer, in this particular instance ... (to quote Naas Botha ... look at the scoreboard).

You can call whites a dog all day long, it won't make much difference. But strangely enough when whites call blacks a k.... they are up in arms.
