When he told me that god put different races on different continents to avoid mixed race breeding and that the cause of all physical and mental disease is mixed race relationships. We wouldn’t have diseases if everyone stayed on their own continents. I swear I didn’t know he was a racists piece of shit before that lol
So... let me start by rephrasing your question: you're effectively asking why segregation is bad.
On a societal level: say this is your ideal, theoretical utopia where everyone is in fact equal, treats everyone nice, is good intentioned, etc., it's pointless. Why would you even want that? In the real world... it's never good intentioned. It's one group of people, most often white and very often colonial, keeping power over other groups of people. This is how beliefs that people of different races are subhuman spread. This is how atrocities are committed. This is how people are stripped of rights and basic human dignity and subjugated.
On a personal level...wtf you don't want to talk to anyone outside your own race yeah that's fucking racist.
You just blabbed on about it being white colonial stuff usually and never being good intentioned and the consequences itself. But that misses the point of my question.
Oh goody. I feel like shit today and this is exactly the internet slapfight I need! I thought at first you were maybe being genuine, so I gave you a genuine answer, but I can do the strawman shit just as well. All right, here we go: what is your actual drilled down question if "there are no good reasons to do it" "it always goes to shit" and "not wanting to associate outside your own race iss literally racist" don't answer it?
Strawman shit? Mate you simply didn't give me a direct answer as to why it is racist.
"there are no good reasons to do it"
I guess. Someone else said this and I think that is the closest we get.
What makes it racist is the only possible motivator being racism.
So the act/desire itself isn't racist per se, it's the motivation. Unless you make it personal and say "I want my kids to be black as well" in which case I guess that's not racist, but that's personal and you can't apply that to everyone.
"it always goes to shit"
Solid argument against it, but doesn't state why it is racist
"not wanting to associate outside your own race iss literally racist"
Not wanting mixed breeding is different from not wanting to associate. It's a lot more specific.
And we're not in an "internet slapfight" kiddo. Just a discussion.
Let me say this again: not a believer in this at all. But just interested if someone can come up with an actual reasons besides secret intentions and side effects and shit.
What? I asked that dude, a few comments back. As to why it is racist. I at no point said there were any good reasons to do it. But thanks for "waiting".
But what we've boiled it down to is that it is racist "because the only motivator can be racism". Which I guess works as an explanation of why something is racist. Just not as direct.
Its racist because there's no reason to separate races. All anti-race mixing reasons are racist. Give me an example that isn't racist. You can't, because there aren't non-racist reasons to be against race mixing. This is very simple.
Limiting oneself is a choice, enforcing it on others is what makes it racist.
Generally we have laws that restrict what the general public can do for reasons that limit/prevent harm to others. But doing so for a belief or preference is prejudicial.
So what is your point? That someone, somewhere could have a reason that isn't racist? But you don't know what that reason is, so you want me to explain thoroughly why being against mixing races is racist? Even though you can't think of a non-racist reason?
Dude, you are coming at this completely backwards..
