Can an intelligent person be racist? We had the discussion in philosophy a few days ago and it turned into a very interesting one. If you are reading this, no matter who you are, I want you to comment and let me know what you think ( Read more... )

oh wow you went all philosophical on me here.

I think an intelligent person can be racist, because if you look in the past at some of the most intelligent people, they grew up in a culture that held racist views. So I think that racism is more a matter of the culture and beliefs you grow up with rather than the intellect that you have.

I could also be completely pulling this outta my ass lol. The quotes required too much thought for a weekend for me. Sorry!!

I just wrote a responseberry, and tried posting it. This is the message I got:

Sorry, but your comment of 15666 characters exceeds the maximum character length of 4300. Please go back, shorten it, and try posting it again.

WELL YOU CAN'T GO BACK! I TRIED GOING BACK AND IT WAS DELETED! I just left you 3.6 responses in one, and it deleted it. It took me like 3 hours to finish. It was great. Now it's gone. I was going to recap just now, but I can't. There was so fucking much. Fuck this. I'm going outside. OOOOHHHH man I'm not using this fucking live journal for a long time now. I'm going to teach it a fucking lesson. I swear to god, letter bombs are in it's future.

OKAY FIRST OFF...everything you read here must be thought of objectively. If I say dad is smart, you can't think but he's an asshole so it doesn't count. Because that isn't the point. We all know dad can be an asshole, but at times you must acknowledge that he is intelligent. Point made, hopefully understood. If it isn't understood, don't respond to this cuz I'll ignore whatever you say, unless you can entirely objective. You talked philosophy, this is how it must be done. NO BIASES. Got it? Good lets go ( ... )
