today, professor zaragosa was saying that "racial victimization is easy to portray. focusing on the vocabulary of obvious racial discrimination individualizes practices and reduces systematic problems to an issue of whether or not a store owner can have a no coloreds sign in his window. it is not enough to create legislation that says we should ( Read more... )

Ignorance makes me want to puke, it really does. I hate racists, homophobes, anybody who is intolerant of people who aren't as shallow minded as them. In the area I live in most people are white so racism isn't common. But there were a few black kids at my school and they got some terrible abuse. Verbal, but you still shouldn't have to put up with that bullshit even if it is just words ( ... )

It's shocking enough these things still happen, but what scares me even more is that it can happen on college campuses, places of higher learning like Berkeley, for fuck's sake, places that are generally more liberal and open-minded than the rest of the population. It's horrible that these things happened to you, Tracie. It's horrible they happen to anybody, but racism and sexism are never going to go away. They're ideas that are part of our history and as long as we continue the passing on of ideas, they will exist. I hate to say that, but I think it's true. And I can't tell you how fucking pissed off and upset I get when shit like that happens to me. I always think that the next time it happens, I'll stand up for myself more, but that obviously never happens.

You don't have to stand up for yourself, though, in those situations. The problem is with them, not with you, and their immature and disrespectful behavior doesn't even warrant a response.

This is the only reason why I hate walking around, ignorant assholes. I can't go anywhere without having at least three cars driving by screaming 'whore', 'fucking bitch/cunt', 'skank', etc. Sometimes, I really do wish I was a dictator and just watch all the fucks cry and wet their pants knowing they are about to die =) Aw, the psychotic freak that is me and my little hopes lol /end psycho moment. BAH IT WILL NEVER END.
Moving on, pigheaded assholes like that guy just aren't worth your time or bother. Fuck picking battles, if he thinks that he is so fucking mighty that he's going to degrade himself by showing nothing but pure stupidity to a stranger and has no clue what respect is in any sense of the word, why show him respect by informing him of his pathetic existence in the world? See, I take great pleasure in Karma, and clearly a swave asshole like that will open his superintelligent mouth to the wrong person and he will regret it. And I don't necessarily mean in the physical sense but in any shape or form ( ... )
