Sexism and Racism.

over 7 years

Sexism and racism is inherently linked to power, in such a way that women can't (really) be sexist towards men, and black people can't (really) be racist towards white people.

Yes there are exceptions, I don't want someone to bring up some 3,000 year old civilization that was dominated by black people where they had more privilege.

Racism and sexism are inherently a privilege issue, you can bring up all the cases you want of hate crimes against men from extremists or hate crimes against white people from black people - but it's not racism.

It's discrimination.

If you want to make a case against this then you can prove that women have more privilege than men, or that black people have more privilege than white people.

Maybe it's sad to say that this is primarily the american scope that I'm speaking of, I'm an american so I'm more in tune with american politics and the racial scope in this area.

i think it would be wrong for us to block immigration from "high-risk" countries for a number of reasons, but a large one being that it would only further drive home isis's narrative of muslims vs the west and destroy our foreign relations on a catastrophic level.

i don't believe all undocumented immigrants should be classified the same way as some truly are innocent. a lot of immigrant children were brought by their parents and that's not their fault. they don't have rights as we do and they don't receive financial aid. there's a bill called "the dream act" but the congress always turn it down. but honestly how do you expect us to round up undocumented immigrants and deport them? that's stupid considering most of them lived here over 10 years


"u broke a law 10 years ago, don't worry about it it's in the past!"

there r laws for a reason.

sure. men in islamic countries tend to have a more sexist view of women because of their culture, but that doesn't mean millions of muslims don't peacefully immigrate to the united states, or that we can't help assimilate them into our culture.
