Nope, if you pay attention the Buddha clearly states that only the Asian race is allowed to be Buddhist, Buddhism is about trying to prove how your better than other losers after all.
The concept of "race" didn't exist back then.

Ah, I see what you did there. It took me a while, but I caught it.

ETA: A good subject of my 2000th post :)

BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUULLSHIT!

Ironbite-calling major bullshit on that.
No, seriously, at least not the way we think of race.

For example, it's true that the Ancient Romans considered themselves the pinnacle of the world.  However, this had less to do with their race, and more to do with their culture.  Assimilated peoples were considered just as good as the original Romans, no matter what their skin color.

Racism still existed. Just because the Romans practiced cultural bigotry doesn't mean that nobody else practiced ethnic bigotry.
Still can't think of a signature a year later.

Racism existed, but it was very different to what we have now as racism. I agree with Paragon, most of the racism then was more cultural/local-geographic chauvinism, there was little in the way of pseudo-scientific and/or institutional racism that we have now. That was largely borne out of the slave trade and European colonisation as a way of justifying it.

Bigotry has always been institutional to some degree (caste systems, etc.), at least since humanity crossed from primitive groupings into larger civilizations, but the western Caucasoid/Mongoloid/Negroid theory and the dynamics that descended from it are all fairly recent, so it's safe to say that Buddha wouldn't have had a "no whities" policy.

I thought you were quoting some social justice warrior and you forgot the quote tags.

I think you're mixing up who said what. Paragon said the "There was no concept of 'race' back in the ancient days", while Lizard posted the picture of Poe as a visual pun.

So, are bisexuals sacred too? Or do we just get to be the priestesses?

Depending on who you ask, bisexuals either don't exist, are fakers, are just confused or are bisexual.
No matter what happens, no matter what my last words may end up being, I want everyone to claim that they were:
"If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine."
Aww, you guys rock. :)  I feel the love... and the pitchforks and torches.  Tingly!

Actually I was talking about Lizard's "Buddhism is for Asians only" comment.

A reminder today that Martin Luther King Jr. was assasinated by the US government

Tagged: how far white people will go to uphold white supremacy

Someone responded with: Anonymous asked: i understand that the "martin luther king jr was assassinated by the government" thing is a legitimate conspiracy. this being said, it is still just one of many theories about his death. to present it as fact is misleading. im just hoping people who see that post will check their sources before accepting it as certain.

They blew up, predictably.

What the fuck are you doing in my inbox, gringo? Did you get lost?

Okay, let me get this straight; if you are an oppressed minority you can make any claim you want? And anyone who asks you for proof of the claim you made is entitled and should check their privilege?




Editing because the same blog is still going at it.

anonymous asked:

PLEASE explain to your followers who are still peeping about white people not being able to wear locks: HERES why, locks have been worn for centuries by several African cultures and are the core part of Rastafarianism. Rastafarianism came about in the 80's as a REJECTION of Eurocentrism and racism and adopted locks to reject white beauty standards and oppression. Locks represent a REJECTION of white beauty standards and an embracing of black culture and blackness.

Oh, look. Even more reasons to not appropriate locs and be a racist. As if you needed more than one.

For all you white supremacists who keep flooding my inbox about your silly white people hair. I don’t know why it’s so hard to understand. If you’re white, you can’t have dreadlocs. End of story.
