Double Standards

[Lazer Yoshi]

I found another example of double standards today.

When I'm late to class, I get a tardy and have to do something retarded, like going to the office and reporting that I have a tardy.

However, when a teacher's late, even 20 minutes late, and it's pouring outside, and the kids are standing in the rain, it's okay for the teacher to take as long as they please. They don't get marked down, or given detention, or have to do anything. In fact, they're usually talking to another teacher about some episode of a TV show last night.

I lol at how white ppl get in trouble 4 being racist but if you call a non-white person racist everyone will laugh. Also, it seems like if a man makes any reference to any differences between male/female ppl, its sexism. But if a woman acts completely superior to men, its feminism, which is ok. There's "gender equality" for ya.

I tend to answer feminism with a simple joke:

 

"Why did the woman cross the road?"

"Maybe be-"

"Who cares? Why is she not in the kitchen?"

I had a talk like that with my uncle once... it went like this:

 

Me: "David, I'm going to the school dance it's till 12, is that good?"

Uncle (David): *Looks at me in the eye* "Is she older then you?"

Me: "Err... yeah..." *looks away*

Uncle: *Sighs* "Fine."

Me: "Really?! Yes!

Uncle: *Looks at me in the eye, digs in his wallet, and throws a condom at me*

Me: *Looks at him funny, then leaves*

 

I laugh when ever I remember that XD

I'm the older one in my relationship and I didn't find out a month after we were going out :| How much was she older than you?

 

3 years XD, that was last year though.

Well, Caucasian Christians are pretty much the only people who complain about this, but they have to face the world is that way because they made it that way. If you look at history, the majority of oppressing has been done by the whites as an act of "supremacy" in racism. It's only because of the past that the present is going to piss you off. Make a change to the world, or maybe get a black man to suppress whites, and you can go ahead and crack jokes freely.

 

It's nobodies fault, but the pasts.

Your sarcasm doesn't really help in argument. It only makes you seem that much less likely to win this debate.

 

And this wasn't thousands of years ago. Less than 100 years ago, most Southerners still employed sharecroppers at dollars less than the standard of living, which would be the equivalent of you working at McDonalds, and only being paid a dollar. A month.

[~/Coolio Prime\~]

You missed it. You said "they have to face the world because they made it that way" when that's little more than a generalization based on race and religion. It wasn't the generation of today that oppressed people or were oppressed, save some of the very, very elderly ones. And those people didn't create slavery, they were raised that way by others raised that way dating all the way back to immigrants that thought this was the right way to live on account of divine duty and other ideals these people you claim were responsible for all of this would laugh at.

 

Your race caused this, it's your fault. Wow, that isn't racist or anything.

[~/Coolio Prime\~]

Being historically oppressed doesn't give them the right to act like douches -with everybody-.

Change that to anyone save those that actually oppressed them and you're good.

The United States is known for its numerous innovations, but it holds a stigma of grave stupidity in most other places.

When making statements that could applied to many countries, it's always sounds smarter to single out America.

I just cited America because it's an easy one.

 

Here's another.

 

Chinese people are widely regarded as diligent and clever, but they are, practically, often quite incomplete.

Their systems are pretty effective in preventing second offenses, tbh.

They're easy to make examples with.

I'm sure plenty of times, Fox News and MSNBC have bashed people they now worship regardless of the offense.

 

Ohhh, I'm not gonna let you have that one.

Those "Muslims" you hear about on the news and from 'Fox' aren't Muslims.

The term for them is "Extremists" I believe(I'm not exactly sure but they're something along the lines of that). They take the Quran(Kuran or however you like to spell it) out of context. Muslims do not "behead" people but we will fight back if you try to fight us. We wont kill you but we'll defend ourselves. We are normal people. Most of us dont have those long beards and wear, as someone called it, "dresses".

So yeah, my two cents.

I love you harhar, but I'm calling bullshit. How can you tell when something is taken in context or out of context when it's so vaguely and horribly written. IIRC, it says "fight/kill the evil in the world". Apparently that means the evil inside you, but it's so poorly worded that it is a common misconception to kill evil in the world, and thus people who don't follow Islam are evil.

As if the Bible and every other holy book ever written does not spawn misconceptions?

 

Doesn't Revelation 21:8 say the exact same thing you just claimed Islam to say?

 

But the cowardly' date=' the [b']unbelieving[/b], the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars—their place will be in the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death.

 

Theism is really all the same at its core, so don't go attacking other followers of the book just because they worship a different god.

I dont actually know how to respond to that. I'm tolerant of others and their beliefs. Just because someone is Christian or Athiest doesn't mean that they're a bad person. I guess it depends on who you're asking. To me, "fight/kill the evil in the world" just means be as good of a person as I can. If I can help someone else do good instead of bad then that's fighting evil.

 

*Why does everyone have to argue about something? Where's the lovin'? :P
