    You're missing the point of the whole thread.

    Racism doesn't involve hate unless it's practiced by a hater.

    Racism is a normal human condition.......hate is NOT a normal human condition.

    Are we going too fast for you?

    Why should I need an African to be nice to me?

    An African should be nice to other Africans in Africa.

    Googled it. Looks good.

    Food is one reason I’m glad I’m a mongrel. I put homemade sauerkraut on my pizza. But I’ve never even been tempted to put **** in when I make ice cream. The Midwest has never bored me enough to attempt that.

    FTR, I think folks should have the right to voluntary self-segregation and even race-based nationalism so long as it is accomplished via voluntary means.

    But it is a dick move to discriminate against folks based on their genetic heritage. While its true that different lineages have different 'internal' traits such as personality, intelligence and creativity, the differences aren't substantial enough to warrant anything actionable. Whatever you think is bad about Africans or whoever, there's a German somewhere that's worse. This dynamic exists throughout all the peoples of the world and makes genetic based discrimination objectively unreasonable. All of the most successful societies in history embraced multi-ethnicism, while the bulk of those that yet havn't are wallowing in cultural stagnation throughout the third world.

    However, multi-ethnicism =/= multiculturalism. Multiculturism is even worse for people than monoethnicism. Its not only reasonable to expect cultural assimilation from foreign ethnicities, it is critical to maintain social order.

    Are you perhaps confusing multiculturalism with multi-ethnicism? For example, if an African moved to Germany, learned fluent German, drank lost of beer and ate lots of sausage and put a German flag bumpersticker on his Volkswagen, would his skin color still bother you?

    Germany has an infestation of people who think like American Democrats.

    Why do you use such a narrow minded view of racism? Superior is not the entire story. Men living in fear get called racists and not because of superior belief.

    No he is quite correct. Many here on the forum try to explain the Nazis. They are very very socialist. national health care is costly socialism. Nazis had paid vacations that lasted 2 weeks. The Germans gained a lot from Hitler. They also lost a lot since he waged wars. Had he never waged wars, the world would study other aspects of the Nazis.

    You and I agree far more than we disagree. You would be interesting to take to dinner and listen to you talk.

    There are a fair number of largely German communities in Texas. Largely going back to an idea in 19th century Germany for Germans to immigrate to Texas and form their own estates and communities and possibly even their own country there or own state.

    John Bonifazi ... clearly not a German name, served with me in the American Army in Germany,.

    John was born and raised in Texas. John also was fluent in speaking German. He told me the TX town was fluent speaking German.

    No.........cultural stagnation is a MINOR problem compared to huge crime and poverty ghettos in every major city that gradually turn your country into a third world nation and eventual and inevitable civil war.

    I don't know how the Germans feel, but blacks who act white don't bother me in the least.

    But how do you know their kids are gonna act white?

    And what if they're Muslim? The Boston Bombers were second generation Muslims with nice Americanized parents........and it all went to hell in that second generation.

    Better to stay separate and not offer the chance for things to go all to hell.

    Yes......white people cause enough problems.......why ask for more by complicating matters?

    We need Extreme Vetting now and we need Extreme Deportation now.

    So you don't know the difference between ethnicity and race. That explains a lot.

    I managed to read through two pages of leftist tripe.

    What is wrong with racism? Well, the obvious is that it divides people up into groups. It could be racism or holders of doctorate degrees. The problem is that there are very educated people with doctorates who couldn't count how many toes they have.

    That said, there's nothing wrong with racism because we are dealing with unknowns vs knowns. I know that most violent crime offenders are black, so if some black dude wanders into my office looking for a job, he's going to be saddled with all of those guys sitting in prison because blacks are violent people. Yet, here's this black dude asking me for a job, and I've got to somehow disentagle him from all those negroes in prison.

    Not gonna happen. He has to convince me that he isn't like those negroes in prison.

    It sucks, but facts are facts. Dividing people up into groups sucks, but we have to do that because people really aren't the same. This doesn't mean that every black guy should be playing basketball for the NBA, but you gotta admit that there are a lot of black guys in the NBA.

    OP may be on to something for us here in the U.S. Let's make racism acceptable and then the problem of racism as a business (Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson) go away. I mean get real, racism isn't going away with these 2 race hustlers in business.

    Thank you for your opinion. As far as opinions go, your opinion is quite an opinionated opinion that people who care about such things might agree with, as far as opinions go.

    Did you have anything you wanted to say regarding buttressing your opinion?

    I didn't think so. Guys like you are a dime a dozen. Opinions, opinions, and opinions.

    I forgot to mention that racism is usually based on extreme personal insecurity.

    Its best to treat and judge someone as a unique individual.

    I have no need to have an african nice towards me. His presence in Germany is a waste of rescources. I want him to remigrate to where he came from. This can be avhieved by creating a negative environment. Its called push factor.
