Default Would racism ever end
saw it on another on another forum, some said we might become one race so it would be impossible and others said it will never end(with many various reasons)

Although, I would like racism to end, I don't think it will ever happen. People will always find a reason to differentiate themselves from others and claim their superiority. If we were to become one race, so to speak, I don't this mentality will change. We, as humans tend to do, will separate ourselves into groups and discriminate on others based on something else, like language.

Sadly not, even if there's one race or religion among humankind we would deride and show hostility to each other based on other criteria such as language, location and social status.
Moreover racism isn't innate, it is a very experimental-inherited behavior influenced by greed and envy or violence.

The primal cause of racism is a fear of shift and of the unknown, all humans have that believe.

indeed and theres nothing really for me to add since you said everything
but what if every single person was toleratant of other races,cultures and ethnics around the world and educated to respect others for their differences. would racism still exist, but then again theres always one

Will you have to stop dehumanizing your definition of 'subhuman' existence?

Racism is just Selfishness; at its core. Racism IMO just operates by the same principle of selfishness but it works here against other people/peoples who are dissimilar to the racist.

To stamp out racism in people, , you need to go beyond just tolerating someone else of another colour, you need to treat them as your own - now thats a hard thing for a lot people to do. To stamp out racism you need to have to stamp out selfishness first in the individual person - and thats hard for everyone to do.

There would be less racism in the West if there was less large-scale immigration.

It's all about competition for jobs and sex (foreigners chasing local women).

Like our fellow brits who go to make staff parties all over eastern europe, they have practically taken riga, tallin, prague and many other east euro capitals, in order to get decent women and cheap drinks.

Don't blame non-europeans as it's even happening within europe.
And dont get me started with Italians.............

Italians in Ibiza. Jesusss I thought I was in Napoles, and they are generally hostile. Racism, classism and sexism will always exist for the above mentioned reasons.

  • i am stronger than you are, you are inferior because you are weak
  • my dad's car is more expensive, you are inferior because you are poor
  • my language owns your language, you are inferior because you speak an inferior language
  • my religion is the true religion, you are inferior because your religion is inferior
  • my land is better than yours, you are inferior because you live in the mountains
  • my country have bigger economical penis, you are inferior because your country is inferior
  • rap is better than rock, you are inferior because you listen to crap!


wil racism ever end? i doubt it, its build in our natures and people can't stop comparing.
and ok, race goes down the garbage bin and gets replaced by something else, but "racism" will never die.

racism won't end. even when faced with the fact that there are people of another race that are just as intelligent or just as athletic or just as sophisticated they still will go on about how their people are superior and everyone else is subhuman.


we as humans can't help but notices the differences between our races, we notice these things from a young age, that different people come in all types of shapes and sizes and shades.. and really there is nothing wrong with adknowledging these things, the whole color blind arguement is ridiculous imo, all that matters is how those differences affects how you look at one another..you can either get past it or dwell on it and shit on everyone elses ethnicity to try and big up your own, though in the end it does more of a disservice to your people than any real help, you make your whole race look foolish when you act an ass and wave your racial superiority in the face of everyone else.

Since Humans are very vain creatures, it will not end. Even if people were one race they would divide themselves into tribes, religions, cultures. Heck imagine if they were all European. You have people who will say blond and light eyed people are superior to the people with darker hair and eyes, believe it or not does happen. So the answer no. The only way to end racism is on the individual level, that is by getting to know people from other culture and breaking the misconceptions. For example racism is mostly an individualistic matter and hardly a collective one. Even when the collective wants artificially to remove racism often leads to more of it. Thus you and only you can end racism not the collective and not your particular group. You also tend to learn that racism only brings pain to the people who espouse it. To be healthy is not be hateful and see all people as equal is what is the most important.

racism will live forever cause simple people will live forever. racism is by-product of need to categorise and simplify "complicated" world. to calm down fears and, last but not least, to make life easier.

Nope, never will aslong as people are different. Even if we weren't different we'd still find petty things to fight over about because humans love that. Petty things such as dick size, according to another topic posted on another forum swedes are superior because we have the 2nd largest dicks in the white race

Superiority over dick size.......lol, humans are doomed.

Even ten thousand years from now when all of our descendants are triracials, there will still be prejudices.

Racism is a symptom of a greater problem.
