Default Outlaw "Race"

I would really, really love to see a nation (preferably a diverse, progressive one...Canada or France comes to mind) institute a policy that made discussion of race and racial differences illegal. I mean, when is racial categorization ever useful? When it isn't directly fueling racism and stupidity, it really isn't doing anything except maintaining the notion that we're "different". In an ideal world, I think humans would say "That guy has light skin and his family is from Europe. So what?", or "That guy has dark skin and his family from Africa. So what?". As long as we keep making distinctions between "black", "white", "brown", etc in practically every context...I don't think we're ever going to get there.

This law would make it illegal for any news or media source to distinguish or identify racial differences in any way, and people heard using racial terminology ("black", "white", "hispanic", etc.) could be fined or arrested as though they were using a racist slur. The only time it would be legal to describe someone's "racial" features is when it is part of a necessary description (ie. imagery in a book, history, describing someone from a group), and anything that served the purpose of grouping them into something equivalent to a "race" would be illegal.

If you had to go around and constantly make sure you didn't identify people by race, I think that over time people would simply stop thinking about race (in urban centers, at least).

Well, at the very worst, this would just be an interesting social experiment. What do you guys think? Would you alter the specifics of the hypothetical law?

No, definitely not. We aren't equal, so let's not pretend we are. Blacks are closer to apes on the evolutionary scale. Whites have invented everything you use today and yet you still cannot show any respect for the superior race. You will learn the hard way, boy, you cannot disrespect a white.

this place is like the most jewish place on this site.

if you want to speed up miscegenation, the jews should change nigger dna so they dont stink as much really, they can wash, or whatever else, but they still stink.

thats where that thing comes from "i'll be on you like stink on a nigger"

that and cure aids, because most of the nigger babies all of these filthy white whores are shitting out usually are born with hiv. you can bet that heidi klums niglets has it...lolz

Keep this discussion high brow or I'm closing it.

DerDrache you're a valued poster. Unfortunately these threads attract nothing but bottom feeders.

How typical of a fucking nigger.

A nigger doesn't like something, ie, the discussion of racial matters, so he advocates that we make it illegal. What a fucking nigger.

If I personally don't like eating meat, can I make a law to ban other people from doing it? No. Your personal likes and dislikes shouldn't dictate what other people can or cannot do.

That'd be fucked up honestly. See what happens with "Holocaust Denial" laws in Europe. And Hate Speech in Canada. Freedom is taken away

to determine where you came from

humans ARE different. Male or Female or intersex or Transgendered/Transsexual, Neurodivergent or Neurotypical, etc.

that's probably happen in the future.

the fuck what. Lots of people going to jail

no. it would repress it and make it worse and more appealing. "why do you pass laws against it if it's so wrong. Hiding something?" The law also prevents dissenting and opposing the law. Like Holocaust Denial laws.

what's your point? two wrongs dont make a right. Just because some white racists did something bad it doesn't give the black people carte blanche to do something bad.

Do you even have a point?

This.

If all races are equal, certainly mentioning race is no problem since they all have the same amount of faults and benefits, right? By suggesting censorship of race, you are tacitly admitting that certain races have more to hide.
