Racism comes in many shapes in form.
I live in a community which is probably above 90% all white skin-toned people. Many here go around talking about how they disagree with racism, and that blacks should be treated equally, etc. Yet if any of us were thrown into a room full of black people, odds are we would freeze, because for once in our life we don't entirely fit in!
The whole thing about "acting black" is a myth. One of my closest friends is black. I've known him since I was in second grade. He acts just like me - he doesn't talk like a "gangsta" or anything. That just goes to show that you act as you're taught to act, and you talk as you were taught to talk, etc. (well for the most part)
As far as the idea that Americans are stupid, I don't know where the world got that from or what their definition of "stupid" is. But, I guarantee there are just as many "stupid" people in England, Australia, or wherever in comparison to the U.S., just as there are intelligent people (i.e. rocket scientists). Americans in general are not stupid, we're just people. We're all just people. If you look at the world from that one sided perspective that "this type of person" is stupid, then, well, congratulations! You're right! There are stupid people!
Best thing to do, hard as it is, is to look at the human race as a whole. In that case, though there are many different versions of humans, saying that a black person is a different race just ain't true. They're still human! I guess where I'm going with this is that human beings in general are stupid. We are just stupid creatures. Just when we think we have it all figured out, we don't! It's a loop, it's just gonna keep going like that. And if we ever achieve true enlightenment then I'll be damned
Here are a few personal philosophies that I've written (and yes these are by me so if you use them I'd like some credit
)
1) The concept of reality is a mirage. Reality is in the eye of the beholder. Every human being blindly believes that their perception of reality is truth; therefore, the only truth is that no human can comprehend truth.
2) It is impossible for any one human not to be opinionated in some form. Though one may believe part of an issue to be true, another may disagree and claim to know the exact opposite to be true. Hence, it may be nearly impossible for each side to alter their opposition's idea of fact, making each individual opinionated.
Dictionary.com definition of "Opinionated" - Holding stubbornly and often unreasonably to one's own opinions.
Ironically enough, all of this is just my opinion, making me opinionated - and proving my point.
