White people are always complaining about political correctness, censorship on yahoo answers, and affirmative action. I think we play the race card more than anyone. Get over it, we've had it easier than most of the whole world.
Black people are still complaining about slavery and racist people. Slavery was an awful thing that happened, but it was 200 years ago! Their aren't as many racists around as there were a few years ago, also racism is completely socially unacceptable.
Hispanics and Asians are always complaining that you only see white and black people on T.V., stop complaining and do something about it.
If I am wrong, please tell me why, but I am so tired of hearing everyone complain.

Yes!! I wish everyone would just stop complaining about everything and move on or get over it. Complaining doesn't get anyone anywhere.

"racism is completely socially unacceptable.", so is killing but people are still killing. The only place "racism is completely socially unacceptable" is on the TV shows you watch with the heavy-handed message dialogue. Racism and bigots exist far more than you realize.
You asking blacks to just forget about what has been done to them because it happen 200 years ago, just shows your own kind of racism. They have not forgotten about it, because many are still suffering as the result of it. You want people to forget about the 9 million Jews killed cause it also happen before you were born? No one is "crying" anything or playing any sort of "card". They are speaking out about it, which is exactly what they should do, and you need to listen better and learn.

Amen.
What is even more annoying is when people say something is "racist" when it is not even a "race" related issue.
Example:
A: People from France are rude.
B: Hey, that's racist!
Nationality is the issue.
A: I don't like Muslims.
B: Hey, that's racist!
No, that is a religious issue.
A: People speaking Chinese/Spanish/whatever on the bus annoys me.
B: Hey, that was racist!
No, the person has an issue(could be right or wrong) with language.
I'm not saying those statements are right or wrong, I'm just saying they are not statements of a racial nature...So don't call me racist.

it fairly is an situation-free one. If the international gets too warm, we've shown that we are in a position to survive it as a results of fact the "Cradles of Civilization" have been in warm, dry factors. If the international gets chilly, then we've already shown that we are in a position to stand up to ice a protracted time, and that's with out any "extreme" technologies. If the international gets overpopulated, it is going to, out of necessity, stability itself out. i do no longer think of we would desire to fret approximately surviving the subsequent one hundred years. the actual question is the thank you to we shop the subsequent one hundred years from turning out to be to be the subsequent dark Age.

People are not "playing the race card", they are voicing legitimate concerns.
Racism is not considered completely acceptable. Yeah, people pretend that it is, until they slip and a racist comment slips out of their mouth. Then they insist that they "have a black friend" or that you're one of the "good ones"...

Uh....? There aren't enough Asian charactors on TV. I've seen the actor who plays the Korean guy on ABC's Lost on TONS of other TV shows, and I mean TONS. Maybe you think all Asian people look alike or something. Easy for you to say, you're not Asian.

You have a point. So what are you doing about it? Being part of the solution or part of the problem that you're whining about now?
