I had the best lecture in sociology this evening.
Generally, I disagree with my instructor's ideas, however, he made such a great point today. We all know there's the upper, middle, and lower class, with the small denominations within. However, we all know that any fucking nigger who says "wut up yallz" or "sup g" is probably one who lives in the projects, smokes pot all the time from money he stole from a 7-11, and was raised on bologne and cheese. We all know most of the Hispanics we get sick and tired of work 27 hours a day. People are angered by Jews because they're wealthy. Notice the trend? Most racists and people with ethics complexes (not exactly right and wrong, but what we THINK, individually, what right and wrong ARE) are middle-class, so we have two sides to feel animosity toward... and we already know this.
So, let's think about it... most of what we call racism is really because of apparent class distinction, and when being derogatory against another race, we label it "racism."
On another note, I'm not saying racism doesn't exist. Racism is hate of another's race for skin color, and, well, their race (determined mostly by skin color and skeletal structure).
