Can someone please explain to me

So all a minority kid has to do is not fill in his ethnicity and he'll ace the SAT!

Brilliant!

well, its not that simple. its a problem with deep social ties...

if i were asian, i know i'd be alot better at math - not because im naturally good at math, but because everyone expects me to be, so i'd work alot harder at it.

So if he didn't check his ethnicity, he would do worse on a math test.

Brilliant!

how is that ridiculous?

Well, it's your life not mine, but,

Are you really basing how hard you work at life/intellectual pursuits on what other people expect from you racially? If so, that loss of personal decision making is your prerogative, but I wouldn't go around expecting or assuming that everyone else does the same.

lol not at all. i was giving a hypothetical situation. i support the individual over everything. thats why im ing about the whole racial stereotype nonsense in the first place.

[balli]

lol not at all.

Because it would be ridiculous. Right?

[The Reckoning]

Because it would be ridiculous. Right?

not at all. if a person grows up being bombarded by their own racial stereotype their entire life, they would be more accustomed to fit the package - to be more like "one of their own." how can you not understand that?

[ChumpDumper]

So parents just need to tell kids their race is the best at everything.

[The Reckoning]

im trying to point out that society is structured like a warped caste system without us even realizing it. comments like...

Really, you're still white and in charge of everything else. If the price for that is not being able to wear a racist t-shirt, you're coming out far, far ahead.

IBut then again white American's were never stolen, shipped like cargo, enslaved and then disenfranchised for the next 150+ years. If we had been, I'm sure we too could say some things that expressed racial solidarity and it probably wouldn't look so bad.

really strip us (as in any race) as individuals. im sure a little kid would have a really high self esteem when he hears like this.

A white kid would. They got it easy.

That's the ing point. They shouldn't have high self esteem. I know I don't, racially speaking. The sooner we can indoctrinate the most kids possible, with white liberal guilt, the better off the future will be IMO.

[Creepn]

I have to agree that the shirt is tasteless. But white people complaining about it is tasteless as well.

[2centsworth]

You're white -- enjoy yourselves.

you really think you're that much better than us don't you.

[ChumpDumper]

you really think you're that much better than us don't you.

Well, I am white after all.

[2centsworth]

Well, I am white after all.

you're a racist prick, but you being white has nothing to do with it.

[Brutalis]

Why do you go to hip hop stores?

I don't, they are in the window of all 3 of the stores for display.

Really, you're still white and in charge of everything else. If the price for that is not being able to wear a racist t-shirt, you're coming out far, far ahead.

Take care of your own ish.

You sound like a white supremacist.

[2centsworth]

so you're saying you being white does having something to do with it?

[ChumpDumper]

I don't, they are in the window of all 3 of the stores for display.

Oppressing you.

You sound like a white supremacist.

[ChumpDumper]

so you're saying you being white does having something to do with it?

No, I'm laughing at you.

[2centsworth]

chump, because he's white, thinks he better than minorities. now you're a racist troll lol.
