Re: Racism
No. Not at my current energy level. However. I will say that racism is just one manifestation of bigotry. Which sucks.

Re: Racism
If I have jungle fever, am I a racist for referring to it as jungle fever?

Re: Racism
At the risk of being shunned, I must confess that I have never been fond of the Incas.

Re: Racism
Figures. Oh sh-.
No, but really, I have no direct race issues. I do notice things at my job, though, which is in customer service.
Black people on average are significantly worse tippers than anyone besides seniors. They're also much more likely to behave rudely when you're taking their order.

Re: Racism
If everyone had the exact same skin color, there would be another way that we differentiate people, and cast some down as inferior. I recently read how even Abraham Lincoln was racist, and not the paragon of virtue that he's made out to be.

Like most bigotry, this is borne from ignorance. It's the whole calendar thing that has caused negative stereotypes.

That was the Mayans, not the Incas.

 I told you that my bigotry was borne of ignorance. All along I took out that calendar thing on innocent Incans when it was the Mayans who were culprits.

Re: Racism
I am glad that I have been set straight. Come to think of it, all of the bad things I have heard about Incans were told to me by Mayans. That's horrible.

Hey, we worked for free for you people for hundreds of years. Suddenly you free us and expect us to throw a couple extra dollars your way for walking 20 feet to bring us a plate of overpriced food?
