are you racist ?

explain it in your case . how racist are you . what do you consider to be racism etc
I recall instances where I've been racist to afghans, especially towards avicenna cause he pissed me off. I did go off on east/se asians on AS here and there and on TA with that Taiji dude and his sock pretending to be se asian, when he started portraying indians as weak/rapists.

Quite a bit with northwest indians as well when they pull that 'jatt/indus master race' BS sometimes.

this is not to justify my racism, but i was explaining how and why i was racist in those instances. Racism is wrong, even if you retaliate. There are other means to retaliate without being racist.

What I consider racism is insulting/mocking a group whether seriously or as a joke, especially when one does it to elevate themselves randomly at the expense of putting down other groups.

You can be racist towards euros, black people, east eurasian people, south asian people etc but can you be racist towards me in a racial sense?

no . not in a racial sense . only in an ethnic / xenophobic sense

i dont consider euros as a different race btw. . i dont care what anybody says . they are caucasian i am caucasian . but i could be xenophobic or europhobic too

By that logic I can't be racist towards you too because of muh Northern West Asian race and stuff like that

I don't consider Euros as a part of our race tbh. Sure, some Euros are closer to us than others but in total they are still very different

you and me are not different races . you could only be xenphobic or kurdophobic towards me but not racist . we are both caucasian racially

and i respect your opinion and my aim is not to force kinship with us on euros ....but i dont consider them to be a different race . we lately talked about it here and i explained :

You and I are both the same race. We are both Northern West Asians but saying that someone who is Swedish or Norwegian is the same race as us is far from the truth. They aren't similar to us at all, even though they are also Caucasoid like us. Looks aside, genetically they are also extremely far away from us. Us, northern west asians not only are similar genetically but we also look similar to each other.

i consider all caucasians to be the same race . just like all negroids or all mongoloids are the same race

scandos are different from us of course . but they are still on the BIGGER SCOPE in a wider sense still the same race

and if we mixed with them it would not be mixed race and the offspring would not only cluster in europe genetically but also "look european" most of the time

i am not a fan of scandinavian looks at all btw. . ....just for the record . i am not trying to reach for an overlap . it is just my opinion . we will have to disagree i guess

I can't agree with you that all caucasoids are part of our race.

I agree with you that if you mix a northern west asian person with any kind of european, the offspring will look either northern west asian or european. In case the offspring is half north/nw/e euro then the offspring will look distinctly euro looking but that's because southern euros and northern west asians look similar for the most part, which is for example why I can pass comfortably in most of southern europe.

For me, someone is my race if they are Northern West Asian. I really don't care if they are also caucasoid because they are still genetically far away from us and have been separate from us for thousands of years

as i said we will have to disagree then

but "all caucasoids are not part of our race" doesnt make sense

if you are racially caucasian you are racially caucasian . there is muh diversity within a race

it is like saying that a calorie is not a calorie . like a calorie from chocolate not being the same as a calorie from a carrot only because they are different in micronutrients . but the calorie IS a calorie from both

By thay logic south central asians are also the same race as us, the ones who are 90% + caucasoid..
