Default Racism: the Dying Regime

I'm not quite sure what the story is behind this sudden outrage and attention to racial and ethnic heritage on the forums. Honestly, I havn't watched T.V. for the past three months and I'm in a void of understanding concerning this latest thread of inquiry... It should be obvious to any educated person that the myth of racism is somehow, far be it from me why the fuck this is, striking a chord and becoming a subject of "debate".

There's nothing to see here. There's no real debate. I can argue about the fundamental nature of the space-time you exist in. The very environment you call home, being subject to rules derived from a guess, who's antecedent structure is a hypothetical law. I'm tired of this shit. Shut the fuck up already...

Do you want my prediction? It's this: the old racist fucks are going to die. Their children? Their children are going to be an ignorant minority. Eventually what? Eventually people in the future will mock our inquiry, not because the intellectual capacities to understand it are minimal, but because the 'achilles heel' refutation is simply intrinsic to any coherent understanding of an adequately modeled world.

And speaking of models, it's good for people to be educated in the historical context of the events we witness. I wasn't around in the 60's. I know there are people alive today who have seen, witnessed, experienced, and been poisoned by the racial animosity that makes up a good portion of this nation's history... To this end I suggest a book I wasn't able to finish when I first enrolled in college (it was a difficult read), and that is "waiting till the midnight hour: a narrative history of the black power movement in America".

Engaging in a debate with a comprehensive view is the best thing we can do. Having read that book or not, I understand that the differences between ethnicities is culture and skin color. There isn't too much more than that--- I defy anyone who would like to suggest otherwise.

...I don't mean to attack anybody here. There's no one person I'm aiming at. It isn't that I carry a grudge against this post or that. Instead the problem seems to be that I have generalized my experiences into more broad and encompassing princples. Those thingies are simply unacceptable. I offer these words of wisdom in their stead: "You know what I want to think of myself? As a human being. Because, I mean i don't want to be like "as Confucious say," but under the sky, under the heavens there is but one family. It just so happens that people are different." --Bruce Lee
