Are British cadaans the least racist people in the West?

Post by JamalAddow »

Bar a few EDL and BNP members who hate everyone, most Brits don't hate black people (obviously everyone hates Pakis), but other than that we're well recieved.

I remember the only physical abuse I had in Britain that was close to racism was from a black kid in a white neigbourhood who hated Muslims.

I'm talking about black perspective, cuz there aren't that many Somalis in our parts of Britain, so they see us as black here.

And I'm not talking about Oxford cadaans, I'm talking about normal cadaans.

lol people honestly have no idea what racism is. Racism is a SYSTEM not just name calling and not liking people, thats called PREJUDICE.

Racism is PREJUDICE + POWER. So people who have Prejudice towards another people and the POWER to affect them as a collective group. Therefore "Blacks" cannot be racist, what power do they have to affect the lives of cadaans collectively other than petty name calling? For example, they cant kill a white person and get away with it because the judicial system is run and controlled by whites.

They petty name calling and not liking a people is PREJUDICE. Honestly it doesn't matter if another person doesnt like you if they cant affect you. Whites control and have their hand in the world economy which is why there jurisdiction and view matters because they CAN affect people. Their prejudices wouldnt matter if blacks had 100% control of there economics, governments, resources, etc, but that's not the case.... hence the term "white supremacy"

I know a few madow, somali guys, very intelligent people who were driven out of their jobs. Nobody ever called them, but there are subtle things that happened.i have experienced some weird reactions and plots myself.one bastar who I thought I was on good terms terms with asked to do a job which wasnt really mine and I didnt have the time.maalintii dambe waxaan arkay kii oo boss offickisa galay.ileen anigu iga dacwoonay.institutional racism is still alive in the Uk. But it is still better than most places in the world.

It must've been one of those chavvy areas. Only Somali guys are seen as black, so they usually come off unscathed {others still see them as terrifying thugs though}
The women, and girls on the other hand {the overwhleming majority of whom wear an assortment of hijabs, jilbaab, and abayas}, to the chav are just seen as muslamic africans. The U.K is full of chavs, the middleclasses fear and despise them, so do the immigrants. Even tourists have been left shaking their heads when they come across these people whose existence they weren't even aware of.

British people are just more ordered...and less overtly racist. This in some ways is worse, at least with a Spaniard, Polish or Italian they'll tell you if they don't like you or not, British people won't.
Nonetheless a non-white living in the U.K, Germany or Scandinavia is more palpable than Southern/Eastern Europe.

Actually what people fail to understand is that the UK was very racist right up until recently when they adopted the socialist nordic model of being pro-multriculturism, a model which was founded by Swedes but spread like wildfire throughout the western world, in the US places like MN were massively influenced by this model, erhm, I just want to say, Thank God for Swedes they did us refugees a favour and they didn't even owe us anything since they were not the major slave traders or colonizers of the world.

White people are racist, but they have a habit of being respectful of their government and following the societal rules. But do not get this twisted with being good natured, the whites merely tolerate you, and they can switch on you at any time, just look at what happened to the Jews. :lol:
