like i said, it might be, but it's not nearly as relevant when compared to other races. white people were the ones to push social darwinism. the racism they receive is, justified. you know, social justice.

If it weren't for europeans colonizing sub-Saharan Africa they'd probably still be living as badly as they were 1000 years ago.
Sure we did many bad things but the survivors are better off for our being there.

That's not social justice you nitwit that's social revenge. "Some white people did this stuff decades ago so we should take out our frustration on all white people alive nowadays."

that's. yeah that's basically it, but 'justice' is kind of a fancy way of saying 'revenge'.

(It's not like all of you care deeply about the feelings of those you dislike. )

I don't. Not at all.

But that doesn't mean I intentionally use tribal and offensive language just because I don't like a guy.
Why would I attack someone's race when I specifically dislike them? This isn't Xbox Live.

You don't have to attack people you dislike?
But if you do then don't hold back, I guess. So long as you can get away with it.

jus•tice (jŭsˈtĭs) ►
n. The quality of being just; fairness.
n. The principle of moral rightness; equity.
n. Conformity to moral rightness in action or attitude; righteousness.

Ever since Socrates people have been debating 'what is justice?'
But that's gotta be one of the dumber ones

Actually, justice is about law and is unsympathetic to revenge. Someone can murder your family, you can watch them, but if you punch them in the supermarket the next day, you have broken the law and will be penalized by the justice system.

At least in the US.

I feel like blackface could actually be funny though :/

I don't know if you're trying to say physically attack or just attacks in general but...?

I mean't verbal attacks. I can deal with someone I dislike without dishing out bad words and slurs at them. I'm not 7.

yeah that's.... the point at which teen angst mangles a formal justice system into a revenge plot lol. whatever im tired goodnight

No. No it isn't. This is one of the dumbest things you've ever said and I've seen you say all sorts of silly stuff. Revenge is the antithesis of justice. Revenge is born from emotion, where justice comes from rationality. Revenge is personal by nature while justice is impartial. And most importantly, revenge perpetuates a cycle of hostility while justice seeks a fair compromise.

Okay let me push some strawman your way (acknowledging right now that the argument I am about to present is probably incredibly fallacious and highly flawed)
During the imperialist periods when white people were doing what white people do best which is go everywhere and colonize everything, not all white people were like "oh yeah IMPERIALISM." This was also loving decades ago, meaning that most of the people being discriminated against today had nothing to do with the imperialist periods.
Now let's go back in time. Back in the 1940s the national socialist party was off and killing a stuff-ton of Jews because Riddler was kind of a tribal. Lots of Germans were involved. Not all of them agreed with Riddlers ideals, and some up and left Germany because they realized what the national socialist party was doing was wrong. It is 69 years since the ending of the Second World War. By your logic, genocide against the Germans would be something that "doesn't matter." Because the Germans committed genocide 69 years ago.
Am I correct.

that's. yeah that's basically it, but 'justice' is kind of a fancy way of saying 'revenge'.

So the Jews would be justified in committing genocide against the Germans? The blacks would be justified in enslaving white people?

what do you think "justice" is?

A fair compromise is exactly the opposite of what the tumblrinas want though. They want instead of equality to be superior to everyone else by being special snowflakes.

Quite of few of the posts on the page you posted on explain just what you ask.
