Re: Racism and Prejudice

Post by nightbloom »

I disagree a little with having to respect someone else's beliefs. There is only one right answer and all others are false. If I think you are wrong, I dont have to respect your wrong answer. lol I can say, you are wrong.

But to say "ALL" of any group is bad is retarded. Using absolutes in regards to something as variable and non existent as race, nationality or religious beliefs is pretty damn ignorant. Only hicks and the very young do that.

Oh and AXII, governments do things like that, not your average 16 year old dirtbag in a video game. Throwing up pics like that has nothing to do with what is going on here.

He IS being racist, its one thing to have your personal opinion, bot a whole other to force and demonastrate them onto others.


he is insulting him, but not in a racist way, last day i killed a guy at pvp and he called me "%$#%..... christian". lol, thats racist? its the same thing. "IF" there is a discrimination, its because of the religion. Thats not racism, its discrimination, its crap, but is not racism.

PD: Im really sorry for you guys, must be really irritating, but shit happens.

how about "lets respect each others point of view no matter how wrong urs may be". Respect is not a matter of agreement, just builds up a more civilized community that is able to express their point freely without having the finger of guilt pointing at some race, religion, or ethnicity. I personally love picking on turks, but who doesnt..I dont hate on them for being turks but more for being stupid...well actually make fun of not hate :roll:

Make threads about how much you hate people from X and how they are ruining the game for you. Put racist slogans, images, etc. in your sig/avatar. Screw it up once and you get a warning.

That doesn't make sense. You can disagree respecting what other people think. It's way too arrogant to correct people with what you think it's right, just because you consider/know it is. Of course, I'm talking about big stuff, like religion or political opinions, not little stuff

For the sake of modesty? You're not serious are you? I'd rather be perceived as arrogant and be able to correct people's erroneous beliefs than stay passive and just watch people do what they think is right - especially when it harms other people's rights.

Don't take such pacifism (especially relativism) too often. Before you know it, you've spiraled down to nihilism.

dont know if you noticed but 90% of the turkish population does this to them self by the way they act, over 50% of the germans do exactly the same, the viets way back caused soo much fuss, the americans bait things on, the british bully with sarcasm, french keep to them selfs and so on

People act like jerks in this game i know but the jerks are what gives the majority a bad name

No matter what someone says its their oppinion

If people think getting corrected is disrespectful, I don't care. I, myself, do not mind getting corrected.

We learn from our mistakes after all.

That I cannot agree. You cannot catch flies with vinegar (well, unless you use balsamic vinegar but whatever). In most occasions, insults will only reinforce the other party to retaliate and defend their belief system.

It should also be noted that there are people who perceive corrections as a form of insult, especially to their credibility.

Religious belief is not something to be corrected, faith belongs to each individual. What I mean is you have no right to correct other people beliefs because you don't share them. That's not relativism, I don't believe every opinion is right, there is only one truth. But, if other don't take what I think as THE truth, I respect what they think, even though I don't believe it.

Therefore insults are not the way to go if you wan't to correct someones POV.
Those who perceive corrections - only if they're true as a form of insult/degradation are not ready to think outside the box

Even if these religious beliefs hinder upon people's rights? If a religious belief requires monthly human sacrifices, would you still take a passive stance?

Hey, it's their own faith! Why should I even bother?

The problem: religious beliefs can take numerous forms.
