I needed to make a rant about racism as it honestly makes me sick to my stomach. Today I was watching the youtube video of the woman on public transport in London who is being absolutely vile to other passengers because they are not the same colour skin as her and she thinks they need to "go home". Firstly skin colour doesn't determine race and secondly just because someone has a different skin colour than your own it doesn't mean that person is a foreigner. Let's not forget the way the (White British) which she seems to think are so elite have treated and abused other races for our own advantage. Honestly just watching the video made me feel so sick and what makes it worse is that there are children who she is spreading her filth to who will know no better. This is just one example there are plenty of others I could bring up. (Racism in football is really bad like the Dani Alves banana throw and other sickening incidents)

I just can't stand people who think that they are superior over anyone because of their skin colour or race or whatever. Now I'm not saying that only white people can be capable of racism (far from it). Every race that has ever existed has had people that will judge and insult people that are not part of that particular race and I just think it's backward and ignorant.

The world would be a much nicer place without racism and whenever I see people being racist it actually makes me disgusted that people are so hateful for no reason. It's actually very sad to see, what makes it worse is that racism is passed down through generations as children are taught to look down on other races when they are young and don't know any better.

We are all humans so we should be tolerant and nice to each other. Unfortunately this is the world we live in though.

What are your thoughts?

Racism doesn't exist. It's just dumb people that get offended by words. Also, majority of " racism " comes from the shortening of country names. E.G " n word " for Nigeria, " p word " for Pakistan, " c word " for Chinese. Etc.

I live in Britain so if someone shortens downs that word and says " You're a Brit " am I supposed to get seriously butt hurt and cry racism? No. It's a word. Get over it and stop whining.

Wikipedia wrote Racism consists of both prejudice and discrimination based in social perceptions of biological differences between peoples
