Posted: Sun Jun 08, 2008 7:29 am Post subject: Is Korea Racist |
|
|
i make a lot of posts on here with the clear intention of causing an argument. i think you interweb kids call it trolling, which is obviously oh so cute.
but that is not my intention with this one.
i think korea is more racist than the US, the only nation with which i am familiar.
i think they have a hierarchy which goes a little something like...
whites <america, on down>, korea, asia, and then everyone darker. ah-flee-kah would be the bottom.
i dont think this is conscious. a conscious measure would put korea at the top and then everything else below. i only bring it up because of the glaring fact that they bring english speakers here to americanize themselves. they say one thing with their pocketbooks and something else with their general world view. recipe for disaster. |

My response was that "Xenophobia is not the same as racism"
Nothing more nothing less.....
Racism http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Racism
Xenophobia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xenophobia
Although wikipedia is a very poor reference site, my point still stands... |

Come on, what the hell did you expect with a title of "Is Korea racist?"
Seriously, even trolls who discovered the internet yesterday know that the trick is to make the topic actually debatable, rather than a given.

Hmm, actually all I did was a quick-n-dirty google image search for "master of the obvious." It's the first thing that pops up.
I have no idea what the picture originally comes from. But if you say it's Battlestar Galactica, hey, you're the expert. I've never seen it--I have other things to do with my time.
Nice try. Maybe you can ask bogey666 or kentucker4 for some tips on how to be a better troll. I'm sure you'll improve with practice. |

This guy brags about trolling, then proceeds to clutter this forum with yet another trolling post. Don't feed the troll. |

If you're a white person from the US, no sh*t you think Korea is more racist.
Every country is racist. I experienced more racism in America than I do here, but I'm not going to say that America is more racist than Korea (or vise versa). |
