If Aliens invade the earth, all human beings will also speak with one voice. Haven't we been speaking with one voice on issues that affect the whole world?

How do we speak with one voice The West will always tell you that we're all speaking with "one voice" - however, their racism will never let that happen... They will always look for ways for put their race in an advantageous position whilst selling you that superficial "one voice" dummy... The same thing is happening right now with climate change and globalisation - wake the fvck up!!

It aliens were to invade the planet today, white people will save themselves before they save your ar.se!!

European jews are the same goddamn race as the germans, goddamit! So, how the hell would it have been 'race' with eg: the jews from poland?

Even middle easterners are now calls caucasions so why the hell is 'jew' an exception especially caucasians?!

It's the same Goddamn thing. Fine, nazis were racist but they killed people of their own race!

'Jew' is not a race.

NAZI RACISM

For years before Adolf Hitler became chancellor of Germany, he was obsessed with ideas about race. In his speeches and writings, Hitler spread his beliefs in racial "purity" and in the superiority of the "Germanic race"—what he called an Aryan "master race." [/b]He pronounced that his race must remain pure in order to one day take over the world. For Hitler, the ideal "Aryan" was blond, blue-eyed, and tall.

When Hitler and the Nazis came to power, these beliefs became the government ideology and were spread in publicly displayed posters, on the radio, in movies, in classrooms, and in newspapers. [b]The Nazis began to put their ideology into practice with the support of German scientists who believed that the human race could be improved by limiting the reproduction of people considered "inferior
." Beginning in 1933, German physicians were allowed to perform forced sterilizations, operations making it impossible for the victims to have children. Among the targets of this public program were Roma (Gypsies), an ethnic minority numbering about 30,000 in Germany, and handicapped individuals, including the mentally ill and people born deaf and blind. Also victimized were about 500 African-German children, the offspring of German mothers and African colonial soldiers in the Allied armies that occupied the German Rhineland region after World War I.

Hitler and other Nazi leaders viewed the Jews not as a religious group, but as a poisonous "race," which "lived off" the other races and weakened them. After Hitler took power, Nazi teachers in school classrooms began to apply the "principles" of racial science. They measured skull size and nose length, and recorded the color of their pupils' hair and eyes to determine whether students belonged to the true "Aryan race." Jewish and Romani (Gypsy) students were often humiliated in the process.

I still cannot understand how people try to separate racism and tribalism! What the phuck man? Go to countries where tribablism is tearing them apart and tell me if you've been through such via racism.

Ignoramus of the highest level.

how the hell is the rwandan genocide different from the holocust? Is it because one is white and the other is black, so the black one is not as serious?!

'Tribe' and 'race' are just different hierarchies of social groups.

In the same way . . . .

. . . tribalism and Racism mean the same thing, HATRED, towards different levels of social groups. You can define them however you want but they are underlain by the same basic motives, HATE AND DISLIKE !!!

I think because you have live outside of Africa all you have experienced is racism because you identify yourself with your skin rather than your ethnicity. So, you've never experienced the full extent of tribalism apart from your mates joking about yoruba this, yoruba that.
If you were born and bred in Africa and you identify yourself with your ethnicity rather than yóur skin then we won't be having this argument.

Every discrimination is wrong and absolutely disgusting whether it's by race or ethnicity.

There are sub saharan africans in libya who are getting killed and abused on a daily basis. There are other countries where people of the same race but different ethnicity are getting the same treatment.

You still tell me they can't be compared?

Come off that, man!

There's tribalism all over Europe, however, how come there's no hatred involved Scots and English people go at it all the time the same way Nigerians go at it but it doesn't go beyond that stage...

It only becomes hatred when bigotry is involved - you should able to discern the two...

Racism on the other hand is just pure hatred!!

The only cure for tribalism is mutual respect and understanding one another territorial integrity... Once Africans start learning to do that, you won't have a problem with tribalism - and you lot will live happily together forever after except for some bants from time to time... grin
Re: 'Smelly Nigerian': Racist Confrontation On London Train by GhostFaceKiller: 6:45am On Jan 11, 2013
Tribalism is a neighborhood phenomenon i.e. it usually transcends between two separate cultures within proximity of each other. Tribalism usually thrives were resource distribution is questioned or disputed. Racism needs migration to thrive. So with this distinction, Tribalism is were a balance or stalemate occurs between neighboring clans, cultures, etc. For Racism there should be an overwhelming disproportion of population between races since one group should dominate the other in terms of population, and cultural proliferation within the society were racism is observed. So with this in mind, racism is used to remind a minority immigrant population of their difference while tribalism exist to compete for resources and always if not checked - as history has shown- lead to genocide.

tl;dr: Racism =/= to tribalism

There is a huge flaw in this because if it's evolution we are talking about, apart from the khoi-sans who are said to be the oldest, many africans are mixed. If the khoi-sans decide to keep themselves pure by killing the mix Africans, what does it mean? Are they being racist or tribalist?

You will say it's tribalism, rather than racism.

It's very myopic to limit tribalism to just territorial issues. Why is tribalism about territory and racism isn't?

I'm a woman and I have to say she got it coming. First of all I have zero tolerance for men who hit women. But at the same time,as a woman that doesn't mean you should act out of order or use that as a leverage to be unruly.

Not all guys are men, not everybody would turn the other cheek when you hurl racist insults at them or throw a bottle at them and that's reality. Just because a man wouldn't hit you, doesn't give you the right to hit him.

Please explain to these fuckers that keep blaming the white man for not putting bread on their table...

If the men that rule us today suddenly turned white ala Michael Jackson style, what we call corruption/tribalism today would be called racism. Look beyond the color. Hate's hate.

Our inventions made THEIR lives better before theirs made ours. Inventions and discoveries like mathematics, architecture, medicine, astronomy, philosophy, all accomplished when they were still illiterate cave dwellers. As for them wiping us off the planet, you're woefully naive. Who will buy their wares?? Who will supply the raw materials for their industries? If they kill off the 'darkies', they'd sink into mass poverty, war and destitution the very next day. They need us more than we need them.

ok racism but i want to ask if racism is limited to just the white insulting the black and not vice-versa? [/quote]
Infact this has always been my line of thought, why should racism always be defined as coming from white to black? Why can't it be the other way round? By getting angry at 'racist' remarks against blacks we are indirectly accepting that we are the 'lower' race. I think this should stop, and I think its high time we blacks coin a name for this white lemons and it will be interesting to read the headline say 'kenyan man charged with racist remarks against a british man'.
