    Okay, let's go along with your logic.

    Where does "white" stop. Are Iranians white? Or Russians?

    So what does the term white mean, exactly? What are its characteristics and what are its implications?

    Caucasian are white, what's the big deal. If there isn't any hostility or downgrading involved what's the problem. It's not a classification.

    But are there any "whites" in Caucasus?

    Okay, then let's call a train a zurgiblopk, because it doesn't mean anything. You can make stuff up for things if you want to, but it has nothing to do with reality.

    I actually like zurgiblopk fine. It sounds more trainish then train..;)

    Sorry sometimes the urge to troll is too much to bear.

    I don't believe there is an exact definition of what "white" means, exactly. But then, some things are more easily definable by exclusion, not inclusion.

    Extremely broadly speaking I have found that [nope] seem more civilized than people of [nope]. IMHO still mainly a cultural thing, but then I do find [nope] to be trash

    With the latest infraction, I guess I got the answer to the initial question.

    Deleted words are, in no specific order:

    1. sub-saharan legacy
    2. white guys
    3. sub saharan cultures

    So basically... If I understand this right... Some political ideas and thoughts are not allowed here?

    I honestly do find sub-saharan cultures to be trash (infraction no. 2 now I guess). Their general look on women could be used as a typical example of what I find uncivilized about them, not to mention horrible.



    Do I have to pander to some black guys who get upset when I write what I think, or can we have an open international political discussion? If we can not talk about stuff like that, there isn't much use in having an international politics board, no?

    But as I said in my PM at the time, your statements are far to general and stereotypical and it was clear you was bringing up ethnicity and race into the equation. Then you start using terms such as 'trash' when applying these statements.

    This isn't what is allowed.

    *Rant version when not wearing my moderator cap *
    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 
    Racism isn't allowed on the forum. This is clear by your 'white guys' and 'trash sub-saharan legacy' which is code for 'Black people', your public post on this matter as i clearly quoted states 'black guys' which fully justifies my action as you state that you fully intended to mean as such.

    It is nothing to do with an 'open discussion' when you simply refer to people as inferiors based which hole they popped out of randomly in the world, it simply isn't tolerated here. There are communities out there which pander to that sort of thing but not here and society in general for good reason.

    Law in the land also dictates 'Innocent before Proven Guilty' as a way to stop prejudice by attempting to have the law qualify to a jury of peers why a persons liberty should be taken. How come it is acceptable to condemn people as 'trash' 'rapists' and other such terms when the vast majority of innocent of such crimes ? Do you think people should hold you to account for actions you have not performed yourself ?

    Would it be acceptable for me to label you with such terms and shrug my shoulders and go "Why should I pander to Kadagar_AV ?"

    I am not a religious person, but there is one message in there which rings true is "Treat others as you would like to be treated yourself". So don't condemn innocents unless you want to be condemned yourself.

    That is racism, you know. It is of course also true.

    Actually I meant a word that starts with "n" and ends with "oes", but I have been warned to use that fully functional word.

    It is nothing to do with an 'open discussion' when you simply refer to people as inferiors based which hole they popped out of randomly in the world, it simply isn't tolerated here. There are communities out there which pander to that sort of thing but not here and society in general for good reason.
    I think I have kept to talking about cultures. PEOPLE from a certain culture of course will have certain advantages / disadvantages. Are we allowed to talk about cultures as inferior?

    Law in the land also dictates 'Innocent before Proven Guilty' as a way to stop prejudice by attempting to have the law qualify to a jury of peers why a persons liberty should be taken. How come it is acceptable to condemn people as 'trash' 'rapists' and other such terms when the vast majority of innocent of such crimes ?

    If you accept a ****load of Swedes into your culture, you WILL start to have to deal with dental problems concerning the use of snus.

    Does that mean every Swede use snus? C'mon, you are not an idiot. Just like some cultures are more prone to use a drug like snus, some cultures are more prone to, say, rape. Does that mean that every individual from that culture will snus/rape? OF COURSE NOT, and it's an absolutely idiotic argument you bring up here. Also certainly one I haven't used.

    Bring a ****load of Swedes to Africa and snus-addiction levels will sky rocket.
    Bring a ****load of Africans to Sweden and rape levels HAVE sky rocketed.

    Should we NOT be able to discuss things like this on an international political discussions board? Seriously??


    Would it be acceptable for me to label you with such terms and shrug my shoulders and go "Why should I pander to Kadagar_AV ?"
    Yes, of course. I would accept if a country didn't much like Swedish immigration because we brought cultural problems with us, like snus. It doesn't mean I would, or that every Swede would. It would just mean that if you accept Swedish people, you have to accept Swedish problems.

    Same goes with Africa... If you accept Africans, you will have to accept African problems.

    I am not a religious person, but there is one message in there which rings true is "Treat others as you would like to be treated yourself". So don't condemn innocents unless you want to be condemned yourself.
    Well I don't give a **** about religion... Also, the quote you gave is simple human morals, seems completely idiotic to try and make it a religious one. Heck, monkeys get that message, and they can't even read.
