This is not what I said but racist did. There are so many things like this.

>But you'll keep using all the White inventions til the day you die, even though your race had done ABSOLUTELY NOTHING in their entire history. Of course you will try to point to some quadroon who did something here and there in White societies. Yeah, keep using your indoor heating and plumbing, your cell phone, your automobile, your computer, etc. Every time you turn the key in the ignition, turn on a light switch, dial a telephone number, sign into the internet, pop a dish into a microwave oven, or even flush the toilet... you're reaffirming White power! It must be quite a burden you ape!!

It is wrong, not right at all and stupid but when I read those kind of thing, I'm so obssesed and sad. I feel so down and can't really think about happy thing. Why? How do I get over/ignore it? What do I need?

You get sad and depressed to see that a fellow human being could hate and treat another with such disrespect. It means you have a conscience and a heart. That's not a bad thing to suffer from.

How do you get over it? You accept that some people in this world still don't get it. They don't get that we can be different, but don't have to be separated by racial, gender, ethnic, national, religious, or any other differences.

People like this act from a place of fear and insecurity regarding their place in the Universe. They latch onto the only feeling of power they can. In this case, that a sense of being part of a particular race they think gives them superiority over others.

To get over it you must understand that there are all kinds of people in this world, and it will need each and every type of diversity to make it go round. If there wasn't people like this, wouldn't life be boring? Everytime you see or hear something like this that upsets you, just try to find something positive out of it. About this you ask? Simple. The person who wrote that obviously doesn't see their self as "human", but color instead. If you are human you will not be offended or disrespected by these types of statements, but use them as a learning tool on "what not to do". Let the person be ignorant, just continue on and you would have already beaten them. Remember this phrase, "when someone hates you, the only way you lose is when you hate them back".

Listen! I'd really like to slap you right now not to hurt you but so that you'll get a hold of yourself.

Can't you see? The person who wrote that obviously thinks very very little of himself and it would seem like he has lost all self respect because of what others have done to him. In order to elevate him from that lowest low, he needs to throw garbage at others so those 'others' would feel lower than he. If you keep on feeling the way you do, you are giving him what he wanted in the first place. So please, leave the garbage with the garbage. You should pity him instead. Btw, 'he' could be a 'she'.

Ok, at the count of three, snap out of it......1, 2, 3 !

You need to accept that you are not in this power fight between these groups of racists. Some people are idealists and believe that their race is the better, this view is completely idiotic but that's not the point. Do you really care if people use devices developed by white people? Do you care if you use something made by a person of a different race? Your goal in life could be protect family, friends, to better human existence or you could be looking out for numero uno, it doesn't really matter. The petty quarrels of race should not be your fight, unless it is against the quarrels themselves.

In society many people of many races contribute to social
progress and convenience of lifestyle. The racist
agenda might attempt to dismiss the contributions
of racial minorities, but in the scheme of society
and in the best interest of society the racist population
must remain the minority. Therefore, it is important
to recognize the fallacy that racism drives progress.
The racist hopes for the target of racism to become
sad and immobilized that is their effort to attempt
to bring their false representation to reality. In my
opinion, neither getting over it or ignoring it is the
answer. Disproof of that false representation through action
is the method which outweighs the empty lies of
racism; be an active contributor to society's prosperity.

I'd say its because inside you agree that using those things is wrong. Maybe not because it has anything to do with white power, but for other reasons...enviormental issues or personal problems.
I suggest that you quit using those things yourself, as much as possible anyway. And find people who feel the same way that you do to talk to - support always helps.
I hope that made sense or has something to do with your question.

LMAO! This is the definition of ignorance! Look in the dictionary and you will see this dumb asses picture there! Who ever wrote or said this lives in some other reality! Pay no heed to it because where there is 1 there are more! Ignorance is not a disease it is an unwillingness to learn!

Instead of sitting pondering the thoughts of others and the actions of others, observe and decide how you are going to think and act. Obsessing over another person's acts and thoughts is only going to drive you crazy. You can't control how other people act you can only control yourself, and how you deal with it.

You need the Lord. God is no respecter of persons. God created us all and He loves us all. Read God's Word the Holy Bible and let Him teach you how to live righteously with the Holy Spirit within you. It is easy to love everybody when you know Christ Jesus. Perfect love casts out all fear. Trust God, because we all need God. We were all created for God's pleasure. He has a book with the number of hairs on your head in His book. He knows everything about your DNA, your cells, your genes and your heart. Trust God.

you have a right to be unsettled by such a statement whereever you heard it or read it...you need to concentrate on the good things in society and what you personally can do to make a difference.....progress is made by taking one step at a time.
