Every human being on the planet uses stereotypes.  Blondes are dumb, fat people are lazy, rednecks, nerds, Asian women drivers.  We are all products of our environment, life experiences and making generalizations is normal behavior.  So if that’s your definition, when talking about race only, then yes….100% of this place is Racist. 

If your definition is a persons race, and race alone means they are less human or don’t deserve the same rights in America or the same pursuit of happiness, that’s different. I’d say that’s less than 5% of folks here.  And that’s being generous.  Overwhelming minority. 

Let’s see:

1.  @Cdub100 - pretty sure has admitted it

2.  @iam90sbaby - pretty sure has admitted it

3.  @Hardcore troubadour - “quick twitch to violence”

4.  @wiffleball - 

5. @seafoam1 -

6.  @League Champion / @Blue Horseshoe

7. @lickin_starfish (+ whoever “thanked” this post)

 

The following (in addition to some of the above posters) have written “dindu nuffin” which is racist:

8. @Drizzay

9. @Cloaca du jour

10. @avoiding injuries

 

Unless there are more than 200 active posters here, 5% is low.

[Voltaire 4,573]

Some members do say racist things.

Other members draw inconvenient and politically incorrect conclusions from reading data about crime rates, marriage rates, and their own anecdotal experience then convey it in insensitive ways that The New York Times would not approve of.

A problem occurs when people take overall generalities and apply it in individual circumstances.

The accusation has lost meaning in the last few decades. When it was reserved for the likes of David Duke or Richard Spencer, you didn't want to get touched by it. Now that math is racist and showing up to work on time is racist, and the label is applied to people who refuse to move off of colorblindness or opposing anti-racism indoctrination or affirmative action are racist, the word is broken.

The people I listed were real racists though, especially the first 7.   I get that people that may make a joke that can be considered racist may not be truly racist, but I don’t think saying “dindu nuffin” is really a joke.

Gee, racist want to make the word racist normalized, SHOCKING.

And boyo, only the alt right hear some dipchit on the left say math is racist, being on time is racist, etc and then transfer those moronic statements to the left in general.

On to you boyo and won't let you gaslight like you're trying to.

No, the term racist is alive and well and applies to many boyos who post here a ton.

Oh bs it has not.  Step away from the alt right news sites boyo.  No one normal thinks math is racist FFS.  Math is taught the same way it's always been in virtually every school in the country.  And showing up to work on time is racist?

It's like the alt right takes all the characteristics they mindlessly apply to minorities (bad at math, don's show up on time, etc) and then say those characteristics are racist because of a few moron extreme lefties.  Meanwhile the alt righties are just advertising their racism even more. 

That's not real life boyo.

Racists didn't make the term 'racist' normalized. The left did that because they drop it constantly in the wrong context like you just did here, and then threw in an "alt right" to go with it for good measure, as well as a few of your coined term 'boyo.'

Your own thread is a perfect exhibit A for why when somebody on the left call somebody a racist, it doesn't mean anything.

So wait, racist want the term racist to not mean anything, and you think that's reasonable.

Your earlier comment about math inspired me to look up prior GC discussions about how exactly the GC thinks the left says math is racist, and as I expected, it was mostly just broad comments like “the left says math is racist!” without any details as to what exactly the left has said.

One of the few times there was some details provided, was literally in consecutive posts from @Dizkneelande where he appeared to believe a claim that 21% of math textbooks submitted in Florida contained CRT.  I will bump that thread shortly with my reply.

Many seemingly absurd/stupid ideas percolate on the left before going mainstream. Hopefully the 'math is racist' one fizzles out but it's over there now. I teach math and don't want my minority students or anyone else buying into it.

Alright, kindly drop the 'boyos' and the accusations of racism and maybe a reasonable discourse can be had.

This notion that math is racist or that minority kids shouldn't be expected to meet "higher standards" (higher standards = basic math competency that pretty much even the dumbest rockheads we went to High School with in the 1980s were able to achieve) is gaining traction. The way forward is to lower the standards so us math teachers aren't held accountable for turning out adults who can't figure out their mortgage or internet bill or how many shingles they need to buy to repair a roof, or read a floorplan, let alone design an airplane.

Here's what that looks like.

My use of boyo is simply a term of endearment.

And thanks for the link.  So ONE math professor makes this argument and it's "gaining traction" across the country?  Sorry but I'm very skeptical of that.

You're a math teacher, are you being asked to teach anything differently?  Have even close to a significant percentage of school systems across the country started to lower standards or teach math differently because it's racist?

Likely the answer to all is no and once again some loud lefty's stupid opinion is being pushed out like it's even close to mainstream.

I'll hold my outrage until these things become more mainstream and start to infect schools in my area.  Just like conservatives predicted that we'd have boys in girls restrooms constantly, that biological boys would ruin women's sports, that elementary school libraries are full of gay porn, etc.

None of the above has happened outside of very few isolated incidents.  And when they happen they are handled locally as they should.  No need for national outrage or to act like these things are becoming accepted by most liberals.

It's simply not true and not happening.
