Water is not always wet when it can be seen. Telling someone their baby is ugly very well will result in you getting your ass kicked on top of being completely rude. Being a redneck is not the same as being racist. Stating an incorrect fact over and over does not make it any less incorrect. You are better than this.


Actually you did but that has already been pointed out.



Who here has said it was okay to be a racist? That doesn't mean that everyone who fits the term redneck is also a racist. You saying it does is a bigotted statement and removes all credence to your argument. I certainly do not condone racism in any manner but I also do not condone a misuse of a very harsh word when it is being applied out of context. If you are incorrect in what you are labeling someone, even if your intent is to state that someting is wrong, does not make your point of view right. Yes, it is semantics but that is the difference between being educated and not. Rednecks, hillbillies, wool hats and the like are not always racists. My wife has family in the hills of Kentucky who certainly qualify as hillbillies (and hillbetties). They are not, however, racists. Kind of hard to be racist when you are a caucasian female who is married to an african american male. I enjoy watching motorsports, not Nascar though, so that would technically qualify me as a redneck and I can assure you that I am far from being racist even though I grew up in the southeastern states.


You should really read more history. Your statements here show that you are not that educated about what exactly took place in Germany. America holds a good bit of the blame for not intervening in the attacks on Jews in Germany because we were more worried about them defaulting on bond debt. Our government knew what was happening and did nothing, not even a vocal response against the inhumane treatment of Jews before the war. Check out a book called In The Garden of Beasts by Erik Larson. He was the American Diplomat in Germany during Hitler's reign of hate. This is a non-fiction account of how Hitler brainwashed the German public and how America set idly by waiting for money. It also exposes how many in the goverment were in agreement with Hitler. Once the Germans realized what was happening it really was too late for them to do anything. Those that did speak up found themselves dead or beaten to the edge of death or worse.

I asked if anyone could tell me when discrimination is okay. Society certainly partakes in discrimination now, actively, and without protest. Gender discrimination is still discrimination. Do you know when discrimination is acceptable societal behavior? Yes, even YOU are being discriminated against and indulge in the same discrimination that is leveraged against you.
