@mochafudgetruffle Because white people (in America) are in a superior position compared to every other race.

@mochafudgetruffle LOL you go back to white europe

[mochafudgetruffle]

@MegaWinnieGirl Why is racism most devastating when it comes from white people? Do other races truly feel that inferior to whites? Why?

[mochafudgetruffle]

If you think white Americans are so incredibly racist, then go back to the country you came from. It really is that simple.

@howiseethings Well obviously white people of the past have been so thorough in discriminating against every race that everybody is quick to point a finger at white people when someone mentions the word "racist". That's not right and it's not nice but that's the way it is. Besides, that's definitely not the worst stereotype out there.

@MegaWinnieGirl Apparently we are getting sidetracked. Racism doesn't have a poster boy color or race but unfortunately some/most want to make it that way. All races at some point or other have some answering to do.

@howiseethings You mean child slavery? That's all that's coming up. But that's not really discrimination.

[howiseethings]

@MegaWinnieGirl Well then I guess the whole had better open its collective eye and not be so memory or image selective on who they think are the 'worst' offenders.

As for slavery in Asia, just google it. Slavery based on discrimination is still a problem even in this day and age.
