I call that hatred there levelefe what you said in your last post. Its like how I feel towards Hitlary Cunton. We are both white but I hate the stupid bitch. would you consider that racism? To me the term racism is towards a completely different race not a different group of people. Like the french, english, or the jews.

Racism has become a term which is used to describe prejudice based on someone's physical apparance and cultural behaviour.

In fact, we now know this idea of race is a no-sense. If you disagree, I challenge you to name your race. Go on Tater, what are you? American? African? Asian?

Go ahead Tater i would like to know your "race" ... the whole concept of "black" and "white" is total bullshit. So Tater what is ur race ?

ehh there could be different viewings of race in different minds... but

race2 /reɪs/ Pronunciation Key - Show Spelled Pronunciation[reys] Pronunciation Key - Show IPA Pronunciation
–noun 1. a group of persons related by common descent or heredity.
2. a population so related.
3. Anthropology. a. any of the traditional divisions of humankind, the commonest being the Caucasian, Mongoloid, and Negro, characterized by supposedly distinctive and universal physical characteristics: no longer in technical use.
b. an arbitrary classification of modern humans, sometimes, esp. formerly, based on any or a combination of various physical characteristics, as skin color, facial form, or eye shape, and now frequently based on such genetic markers as blood groups.
c. a human population partially isolated reproductively from other populations, whose members share a greater degree of physical and genetic similarity with one another than with other humans.

4. a group of tribes or peoples forming an ethnic stock: the Slavic race.
5. any people united by common history, language, cultural traits, etc.: the Dutch race.

This is true. Tater is not expressing racisim when he makes comments about France and French people. He is expressing pro-American, anti-French nationalism.

There is a major difference between Nationalism and Racism.

Levlelfe, I hear what you are trying to say about people of the same race but different political or religious idenities hating and killing each other - perhaps the Serbs vs. Croats and Bosnian Muslims is the most notable recent European example of what you are talking about - but that is not the situation in this case, this is different.

Tater is making fun of you because you are French. The way I see this exchange between you and Tater, you are doing a pretty good job defending yourself individually and French people in general, and have come up with some pretty good responses. As you are undoubtedly aware, you have nothing to apologize for by being French, just as I have nothing to apologize for by being American.

I'd appreciate if we didn't try and elevate this discussion into the realm of "hate speech". This going back and forth seems harmless and not intended to be personal to me, and nobody involved really hates the other person - this is all in fun, right?

Anyway, carry on please, I'm going to be gone until tomorrow night, please try not to tear the house apart while I'm out.

Thanks
