It goes against even basic moral principles. The only reason it was accepted in the past was because people believed other races to be somehow inferior to their own. This has been demonstrated countless times to not be the case. Whilst there are differences between races, we are all human, and must all be treated in the same way.
Quote:Anti-sexism - Who says it's wrong for a man to hit/physically strike a woman? Who defines this "wrong" beyond what society says?I would rather say that it's never right for a man or a woman to hit each other.
Quote:Anti-classism - Look, the poor are where they are for a reason, since they lack the genetics to prosper.There are a multitude of reasons why the poor are poor. Genetics can be a reason (though not in the sense you put it in), but it is far from the most common reason. Common reasons include environment (i.e. being born into a poor family), skill set (i.e. not having, or not developing any skills that put you above everyone else), or even just dumb luck.
Quote:Which other aspects of modern "morality" do you question?That women being alone with children, even if the children are not their own, is fine, but when a man does it, it's suspect and even creepy. Not only are not all men pedophiles, but some women are pedophiles too.
That when a wife decides to get a job and the husband stays at home to raise the kid(s), it's weird. It's not. Get over it.
That we're in the 21st century and we're still arguing over gay marriage. It doesn't affect your marriage in any way. Stop being an ass.
That feminists will insist that all sorts of things are discriminatory when they're not, but when a man points out something that is discriminatory towards men, suddenly they are sexist, or a misogynist, or just making stuff up. Newsflash! Discrimination works both ways.
That some people think affirmative action (aka reverse racism / sexism) is a good thing, and should be encouraged.
That people are put in jail for years for committing victimless crimes (i.e. drug use).
I could go on. A lot of things piss me off.
So if racial differences are proven, then slavery comes back. gotcha!
Who says it's wrong to hit somebody? You?
Look, nothing is truly "moral" or "immoral" in life. get with it.

I will gladly. And I do in real life, fuck others. Nobody has to be nice, do they?
