Julie - with all of your 'education', you seem to lack a basic understanding of what 'racism' is.
1) How do you know I'm educated at all?
I don't, nor do I care, but you have mentioned a few times that you are. Are you now saying that you are uneducated?
Julie Wrote:2) You don't get to define what racism is for me.
What an idiot. The definition of racism is the definition of racism. You don't get to choose your own definition of the word. 
Julie Wrote:"Race" as a biological & genetic concept is invalid. However; Race is real because it operates as if it is real. Why? Because it is a social contruct with consequences which are very very real.
That's like arguing that Harvey the pooka is 'real' because you believe he's real.
Race IS an illusion, period. When people watch a magic show, they see the 'illusions' on stage as being real, but that does not make them real. If people react to something as if it were 'real', it doesn't make the thing they are reacting to real, it makes them WRONG.

Eh, don't give yourself too much credit. You're the most annoying person in the forum at this moment, but you're not the worst we've seen.

I'm the brain dead boozer around here, get it right. Syber is some kind of hippie bitch that lives in a tree house, wears Birkenstocks, eats granola, and lets her armpit hair grow out.
I thought Julie might've meant me but I'm just a binge drinker, I don't know if 'boozer' really applies if I only get sauced up every other month or so.

Besides that.....It was sarcastic because she "knew" Syb had "known" that when voting for the post they both would "know" that each one "knew" that it was sarcastic. A double whammy in reverse because it is common knowledge that they and everyone "knows" that being sarcastically nitwitish about voting is a sure way to get a thrill and really rile up everyone. Any dummy can see that!:B
See.....I get it! Because I "knew" now everyone "knows" Ha!

Yes. I am extremely UNeducated. Which makes the fact that it takes several of you to attempt to do battle with me all the more pathetic.
Tee hee.

You're the marsupial moron here, not I.
It's common knowledge that people can't completely agree with a working "definition" of racism. Sure you can google & get Answers dot com's or Webster's definition etc, but there is an open argument about what Racsim is. For example, Can minorities be racist? is one part of that argument / controversy.
Quote:Julie Wrote:"Race" as a biological & genetic concept is invalid. However; Race is real because it operates as if it is real. Why? Because it is a social contruct with consequences which are very very real.
That's like arguing that Harvey the pooka is 'real' because you believe he's real.
Not exactly, nimrod.
Harvey isn't hanging people from trees, denying them housing, targetting them for subprime loans, or stopping them on the New Jersey Turnpike for a curbside cavity check because they "fit the description."
Quote:Race IS an illusion, period. When people watch a magic show, they see the 'illusions' on stage as being real, but that does not make them real. If people react to something as if it were 'real', it doesn't make the thing they are reacting to real, it makes them WRONG.
Sure it's wrong, but the effects of racism are quite real. So arguing that race isn't real is an exercise in futility. When racist people are confronted with the facts - That human beings are simply human beings and that race, as a biological concept, is not real or valid - what do they do? ...suddenly drop the Racist foil & warmly welcome those they previously hated into their homes to use their toilets and wed their daughters? I think not, knothead.
Anyone with a basic education knows that there is no "Race" from the scientific standpoint. Life is classified by Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, and Species. Very basic knowledge. But despite this, past scientists STILL set out to classify human beings by race (even though they KNEW DAMNED WELL that it was a social construct and not a scientific concept), proove that certain people were more "human" than others, or prove that people who fit into certain "racial categories" were inferior or superior.
(Related Tangent: I worked in the field of science (biotech to be exact) for about 10 years. I love science. One thing I did not love: I discovered that scientists will often be "directed" to scientifically prove social conventions / beliefs... Anything they find which goes against the social grain is definitely not used to effect any change in society and it's often disregarded & discarded. So, most science isn't exactly pure. Science has never really been used for any type of social "revolution"...usually, it's used to cimply reinforce the social order.) I am not including medical advancs in my comment here. Those are often "revolutionary".
Do you know what the word "construct" means in this discussion? It's an idea...intangible... So you can chase your tail by arguing about how race isn't real and sing to the choir about race not being real. But we all know that certain ideas are very powerful and they operate in society as if they are real. The argument is pointless because the truth is well-known and it is futile because it does nothing to solve the problem.
To be blunt: Most people know that "race" isn't real, but society has embraced it as a social construct and most people operate as if it IS real. So... the real question is: Now what?

Jesus--Julie takes long winded to a whole new level.
Syber--your "wordy bitch" title is in jeopardy here. You're looking positively brief in comparison.
