I ask this question since there's so much talk in the media about racial segregation ect.

Which is it? Hmmm.

I say thoughts because you can't be racist and not know it. there's no example to justify that.

I think Racism is a deliberate discrimination between color, cast and creed. It is a psychological state of mind based on either our personal beliefs or learning. Mostly people indulge in Racism to feel superior, they also discriminate about different nations, their people and practices. Racism is a passive approach an approach of looking at the world with a confuse state of mind. It takes all kinds to make this world and that is the beauty of our existence. Different type of people from different parts of the world are actually the ' Signifies', and one should not discriminate, but try to understand and accept the variety, and the realities of this world.

It is based on a combination of emotion, thought, and experience like everything else.

What a weird q. I don't know, I don't think you grow into it, I think you choose to have predejuice because of how you reason or feel around the subject, like if a lot of black people steal things you start to discriminate black people because you think they are thieves, not because your mother taught you that black people are the spawn of satan I think it's a much more conscious choice.

Experience. Racism and bigotry in general are learned not inherited

Experience. I don't like certain races because of reasons. For example: Blacks are annoying as ****. Asians are xenophobic as ****. Whites are racist as ****. Muslims are explosive as ****. Europeans are elitist as ****. Americans are stupid and arrogant as ****. The list goes on...

It's based on experience, and in some cases lack thereof. For example (generalizing) ppl in the middle states are afraid of "muslims" but the places where middle easterners populate the most are coast states, NY, CA etc.

self preservation is innate. seeing differences is a large key of self preservation. Racism is innate.


even if you "aren't racist" you are either biased against your own or are just a liar

I'm interested in Americans are stupid and arrogant, especially the 'stupid' part. Is that true or just a stereotype?

An aspect is environment based, but a part just internal and thoughts and feelings you allow to cultivate there's always people that are innately hateful looking for any excuse to legitimize it or blame for their circumstance

Racism was based on superiority in the past but is now just based on experience, fear, and preservation. It will always exist.

There's a reason as to why a lot of people from all races fear African-Americans. The fear doesn't come from nowhere.

There's a reason as to why people DON'T fear Asians.

The way that large groups of people from groups behave determines how other groups feel about that one group.
