Huh, interesting. I didn't know antiquity also had racism. It would have seemed less likely.

However, I didn't go anywhere prior to the Romans or even European history so it's kind of my fault :p

Yeah and I think there was an Islamic scholar in the 10th century who also derided black people and said that they were inferior and hence why they were fit to be slaves or something. Can't remember his name though.

Out of curiosity, why would you think this? Your signature says you're a "history graduate," so it sounds sort of funny for you to have made such an unusual assumption.

Well, yes, but I didn't study History of the Middle East back in college. My focus was mostly European History and U.S. Foreign Relations.

So fuck racial background or all traces of heritage. If I marry a curvaceous Italian redhead clearly she's Latino and not Italian.

Oh I've loved all my exes; I'm just saying, were I to worry about what bigots might think then I wouldn't be seeing the woman I am seeing right now who is a sweetheart and I love her.

She has basically married someone on the other side. Once she does that she is on that side, and I hope she doesn't try coming back.

I know you're not trolling, considering you're an admitted Nazi. Simply put, it's a wrong way to think. I feel bad for you, really.

No. In fact, I think all racists such as you should be separated from the rest of humanity. Far more reasonable distinction.

I'm Latino and I don't care a lot about race, really.

It's just a silly concept.

No, that is a horrible idea. Racists "like him" should be taught and educated. Do not resort to that Apartheid garbage.

Most people don't think like you, ya' know? I'm glad we're past the racialism of the 1800s and early 1900s

You cannot teach those that do not want to be taught. Throw them out the airlock. They're a tiny minority, they won't survive long. Not my problem if they want to drive themselves to extinction.

Agreed, it's time for racism to go and die.

That's a violent way to think. Which is exactly why things like that should be taught in educational facilities.
