1. You are all animals. You even share about 50% of your DNA with trees. Your ability to think as you do doesn't make you anything other than an animal.
2. Racism and hatred are just part of nature. Therefore they are part of you. If you suppress it, you are accomplishing EVIL! Because without the racism and hatred in evolution, you wouldn't even exist. And as I said elsewhere, to suppress racism and hatred is basically to be anti-life.
3. Humans have existed for many thousands of years mainly made up of the types of humans in their regions. And they got along just fine. Anybody who thinks that having a multi-ethnic society is in any way good is delusional at best.
4. History has shown one thing over and over again. It is of one group taking what another group has. Putin has shown this yet again. It is as George Santayana said. "Only the dead have seen the end of war." Allowing others to take what you have isn't the solution. It is the problem. Because of human nature, it will only lead to endless strife.
5. If racism and hatred were wrong, every forum would allow you to be that way. Because being wrong, it could be disproven and dismissed. Seeing how that isn't the case, the logical conclusion is that it must in fact be good.
Nah, Imma do these all at once.
1. I have no problem being described as an animal.
2. You'll need to demonstrate that racism and hatred are part of nature, and - from that - provide evidence that suppressing something natural is necessarily evil. For example, smallpox was a part of nature than we suppressed and saved (conservatively) half a billion lives.
3. Multi-ethnic societies are the norm, and the average human quality of life is better than at any time in our history. What's surprising is that the few monoethnic cultures in human history survived as long as they did.
4. This has nothing to do with racism or hatred.
5. I'm not sure what you're getting at here. The fact that most fora disallow racism and hate speech doesn't lead anywhere near the conclusion that racism is somehow 'good'.
