To come up with the expression, 'Racetraitor,' allbeit likely many years ago implies that you felt you were somewhat outside of what the people around you thought.
My own family of cousins, who I dissolved from my heart and mind many years ago still, from what I understand or hear, live with the premier vision of gloried Scotland - talking with thick accents, bricklaying and being real men, with lonely wilfs taking care of the bairns at home .. Ugly fatty creatures, splotched skinned fatty kids with straw hair ... coal fires for heat in the winter fog, fleas in the carpet ...
Well, they choose that.
I prefer my creamy olive skinned celluloid free dark haired ajuma, my sleek olive skinned dark round-eyed beauties, my gas fired heating, and my callous-free hands.
This is a decent choice if you have made it. Don't be afraid of it.
PS: You're slant-eyed now anyway. You've lived in Asia so long you are now approaching what we can define as the 'quintessential Asian.' In that case, who are you actually being a traitor to? |

The extremes are easy enough to spot, but where are the dividing lines? Koreans and Saudis are both Asian. How useful is that categorization?
Race is just useful when you want to discriminate. |

I hope not. People who strongly argue stuff like that tend to be really unpleasant in general. |

One thing which often happens on chat boards is that people respond based on some other poster's avatar or moniker, instead of responding to the ideas presented. Ad hominem attacks occur in real life all the time too.
Honestly, when I look at some screen names I too have my thinking skewed. For example 'dmbfan' ... In my mind I always think : dumb fan. But maybe that is just me.
But RACETRAITOR has expressed his feelings on the various aspects of 'race' numerous times on this board. It is fine to disagree with him, but as to his knowledge on religion or any other matter, nobody can really make any judgment based on the antics of this or any other chat board.
RACETRAITOR is probably a great guy to get to know in real life. The same is probably true about Rteacher, although proselytizing is not one of Bondrock's favorite topics. |

Race is a constructed concept that's only purpose is to separate and create the "other." It has no use, in any sense. |
Then why are some people black and others white? What is an Asian? |
Korean_man already said the correct answer.
There's only one race, human. And we're all screwed unless the majority of people in this world someday realize this. |

On a side note:
Due to his name, I used to think he was somekind of former racist skinhead who had given up the "cause" because of a girl. |

If you can prove that listening to Reggae, and having short hair ,and wearing army style boots, makes you a racist you have a point. |

My assumption was based on two things: the name racetraitor and the knowledge that he was a skinhead. It was too easy to put the two together. Of course, my assumption was way wrong. |

You put one and one together and got 11.
He still is a Skinhead. How does getting a short haircut and wearing Doc Martins and listening to Rocksteady Reggae make you a Nazi. |

This was brought up in another thread recently, and is brought up from time to time.
Yes, I am a race traitor. I am married to a Korean, and have engaged in miscegenation on a regular basis. So the hell what?
According to Wikipedia:
| Quote: |
Race traitor is a pejorative reference to a person who is perceived as supporting attitudes or positions thought to be against the interests or well-being of their own race. For example, one or both parties to an interracial relationship may be characterised as "race traitors". The term may indicate racialist attitudes on the part of those who use it.
|
Is there anyone here who would strongly argue that they are not a race traitor? And is it really a bad thing at all? No. I say fcuk your race, or better yet, do it with another race. |
I'm not a race traitor because I'm so multi-ethnic that I don't really belong to anything. |

Ahhh, but RACETRAITOR, how are you doing your race a disservice? You are merely enhancing your race by diversifying the gene pool with such miscegenation, no?
You should change your named to RACEENHANCER. |
Exactly. That's why I don't take any offence when someone calls me a race traitor. It's not a real offence, so not a real insult. Unlike crazy_arcade I do believe in race, and it's a good thing when it's not used to divide people.
And for the record, I got the online screen name from a skinhead, and he was joking about it. |
