You racists think white culture is threatened by non white culture. That's because you fear the competition.
However, your position is a moral dead end.
It is because of you that the jihadis cult members want to destroy what they call the Great Shaitan America.
This is due to the fact that Zionism carries on despite your delusion about race which makes you all so myopic.
You chauvinist racists are clearly showing the signs of devolution you accuse the stereotypes of race which have little validity today.
It is proven by your ability to curse anyone who challenges you on your poppycock about race and privilege.
Try again and refrain from cursing me because it makes your arguments null and void.

A Chink in Your Armor (satire)
I grew up in a small town called Aldergrove.
In that town in the late 1960s, everyone knew your business, except my family was Japanese. Within earshot, the racists who resented us would mutter, "Dirty Jap!"
Little did they know, few of the Japanese Canadian were disloyal to Canada, which shows you how little they knew us!
Once in high school, one of the more ignorant white kids might mistake me for Chinese, and call me "Chink". This amused me so much that I quickly retorted, "That is because I am a chink in your armor!"
Indeed, the Asian immigrants of Canada fit in the chinks in the multicultural chain mail coat of the white majority, though sometimes a racist incident may shake off the flakes of Canadian society.
Thankfully, my memories of high school are rather selective, for there are stories that lay buried in my subconscious to inspire a few of my articles on this blog.
Though I may tell these small-town stories in metaphorically symbolic terms using mytho-poetic language while shielding the guilty from embarrassment to protect the innocent from harm.
Oh, there shall be no naming of names, but in order for me to come to terms with the demons of my past, this marks the beginning of that journey through a small-town world that I thought I had forgotten.
Having a chink in your armor means that if the lance of Truth meets its mark, the ignorance about Japanese Canadians will fall away.
For I am but a Canadian born Japanese who may have some truth telling to give life to future stories on his blog.

Evolution of Race Relations in Mormonism (satire)
In 1954 Mark Petersen, a Mormon apostle, supported racial segregation in America at the Convention of Teachers of Religion on the College Level.
He had been influenced by the racial superiority myth popular in America at the time, saying in a speech at the conference, "What is our advice with respect to intermarriage with Chinese, Japanese, Hawaiians and so on? I will tell you what advice I give personally. If a boy or girl comes to me claiming to be in love with a Chinese or Japanese or a Hawaiian or a person of any other dark race, I do my best to talk them out of it. I tell them that I think the Hawaiians should marry Hawaiians, the Japanese ought to marry the Japanese, and the Chinese ought to marry Chinese, and the Caucasians should marry Caucasians, just exactly as I tell them that Latter-day Saints ought to marry Latter-day Saints."
This kind of attitude made it hard on Mormon converts in Africa and Asia before the change that happened within the past 30 years.
Nobody in the Mormon church believes in this kind of racist rhetoric, especially have the civil rights movement of the 1960s.
Most of Petersen's writing are less obnoxious than this speech was, but those times are over. Since 1978, when the first black Mormon became a bishop, Mormonism has grown to endorse a meeting of minds with Buddhists, Hinduism, Islam and other faiths.
This makes it possible for my path to becoming a Buddhist Mormon, though I reject Petersen's words because they segregate humanity by race. It reminds me of the time when I sent away for information for a US dating club and received material that endorsed racial segregation in dating. In response, I demanded and received a refund from that dating club and vowed never to request such material from the US ever again.
I believe that the reason why the Mormon church chose to consecrate bishops of any race after 1978 because the racial superiority ideology was turning off visible minorities who were Mormons and slowing conversion efforts in Japan and in Asia.
As well, it was hard to sell Mormonism in Japan because of unscrupulous practises like allowing a Japanese convert pressure members into buying a cookware product offered by a company that was a multilevel marketing promoter of that cookware.
It was only until after 1978 that Mormons in Japan became more culturally sensitive to Asians and other races all thanks to the success of Martin Luther King Jr's civil rights movement in the 1960s.
Today, nobody endorses the racial superiority policy publicly in the Mormon church because it would be detrimental to gaining converts.

The Pizza Hut Murder is a Hate Crime (satire)
Raicism is alive in Tennessee where a guy in the Army got busted for the Pizza Hut killing. Then another former army guy decided to get less time for his robbery of a store nearby way before the murders happened by lying about being at the scene of the crime.
Funny thing is, the murderer was the lone gunman and black. So he got life for killing four of his coworkers, all of whom were white.
Even funnier is the other guy was white, and got convicted and sent to jail for life as accessory for saying he was the getaway driver, even though he perjured himself.
We really need to prevent this kind of racism, because it isn't the usual white on black BS.
It's white lawyers versus blacks and their token whites. That kind of racism results in an innocent white man getting sentenced for life. His family is thanking God he got out of jail.
I thought Eminem was out there to prevent this kind of racism of poor white men who hang with their black buddies, and provide alibis.
Oh wait! Eminem is too rich to fit in such a crowd, just because that part of Tennessee is economically depressed.
FYI Google "pizza hut murder" for more information.

Why Didn't Anyone get Busted for Receiving Child Porn?
Why didn't anyone get busted for receiving child porn from Amanda Todd's stalker?
Why didn't they report the pictures to the police instead of allowing the bullying to happen?
I'll tell you why: because Amanda Todd was biracial and not white. Being outside the In group meant that she was prey to all the boys who she was sexually active with, who most likely had a copy of her boob pics from the pedo-bear who groomed her.
She was also the subject of scorn by all the girls in her school who received her pictures, even though they too should have reported the pictures to the police, too.
Instead, they judged her without even knowing they were participating in the pedo-bear's sexual harassment of Amanda Todd.
This is why I feel that the safety and security of children online needs to be discussed in middle school, not high school when it's too late.
As well, every one who knew of Amanda Todd and received those pictures, but got the wrong impression of her, everyone of them aided and abetted in the crime of sexual harassment, especially the boys who were sexually active with her.
In short, it is statutory rape to have sex with a minor, even when you are minor too, because none of the boys admitted he had those pictures to her before consent.
IMO she committed suicide because because they only wanted sex with her because they had her pictures.

Visible Minority Saved Fate of Racist Whites
If it wasn't for the vocal objection of a visible minority, racist whites would still be accepted as the norm. So thank you Canada for enacting the Canadian Charter of Human Rights Act. Sadly though, the way it is written, even a Canadian municipality could use it to protect the majority from legal action by the visible minorities.
However, only the lawless trump justice by resorting to violence, regardless of the consequences such as Canadian crime bills that have the potential to turn your circle of friends on GooglePlus into "gangs".
Yet I am surprised that even the radical reactionaries among the Sikhs haven't retorted to me, when they spend so much time reacting to that radio talk show host who wasn't referring just to them a few years ago, and kept Immigration Canada at bay regarding the illegal immigrant they were rallying around.
Maybe poverty breeds anonymity. My net worth being in the red by almost a hundred C-notes helps me even more anonymous than Anonymous!
Despite the handful of East Asians in the news, I don't see Chinese reactionaries getting as much 300 second sound bytes on the news about those two murders of innocent South Asian women, and very very little from the inconspicuous Japanese - quite probably because mass media would dread the deluge of hate mail if other ethnic groups within the visible minority milieu expressed their free speech rights in a civil manner.
In my opinion, the most ridiculed of other minority groups would be the Christian rednecks amongst the NRA and possibly the reactionary Muslims, the hardliners who are this close to being criminals, but then just uttering an indirect death threat to anyone is criminal.
For a fatwa is not protected by free speech or by the right to freely practice a religious as one sees fit.
If a fatwa involves the death of the object of that fatwa, then whoever among the Muslim clerics supports it is offensive to God by putting the ideology of the holy war before God. Essentially, if a fatwa results in the death of the object of that fatwa, then it is akin to ritual sacrifice. This makes a mockery of God, because such a death is murder sanctioned by man yet excused as "the will of God".
When the will of God consists of devout men willing to kill for their God, this is proof that such men put first their ideology over their God.
For a man cannot serve two masters when it comes to religion.
While I am still at it, the above contentious logic is also reserved for well-meaning but possibly deluded, most likely misinformed and deliberately ignorant fundamentalists, e.g. abortion assassins who can't shoot straight, radical feminists who collaborate with Christian fundamentalists to close down adult stores and legislate pornography, gang members who have harmed thousands of people but have "found Jesus", and police officers going beyond the call of duty to serve and protect only to practice a form of State terrorism abusing people with "non-lethal force" weapons, sometimes with lethal results.
This is religious fascism, be it holy war, assassination of abortion doctors, the legislation of pornography, criminals who find Jesus in prison yet offered no mercy to their victims before prison, and tazer-happy cops being fronted by the company that makes such "non-lethal" weapons.
For fascism only markets violence, of which few participants are able to profit and in which few WWE veterans participate. It offers no social redeeming value and has no plan except to rob people of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
Sadly though, few of my detractors are brave enough to register on Blogspot and rise above the usual web page vandalism i.e. spam posts with URLs pointing to scripts to convert unprotected computers into adbots for porn web links. Since I am not referring to the intelligentsia among my fans and critics — your intelligence will protect you from reacting emotionally to this jab at the mouth-breathing script kiddies — hopefully this will occasionally result in a comment.
Otherwise, I will retain this ridiculous delusion that I am talking to myself.
Though, as I wrote in a previous article, it's probably a side-effect of being Buddhist: I tend to pick my words carefully but end up subtly saying something important, or sometimes just inserting the main point in the bottom third of the article. That way, the reactionaries will go WTF and do what they do best — abreact — and thus fall on the swords they've made of their ego projections.
Depending the level of rhetoric and based on which response requires legal intervention, I can empower myself c/o the CCHRA.
Or not.
That all depends on who is ugly enough to turn up on my doorstep to get the dharma from me!
I also deliberately write long entries because this is a personal blog, and it's a world that I am "conquering".
After discovering how much work it is to run a web server, I am hooked on using GooglePlus and Blogspot for my benefit and yours to conquer the Internet.
Though my original plan was to one day move this content to another blog web service under my control and administration, GooglePlus fits this bill, but I don't have to move any content when I can share it with the world.

Child Abuse Cases Have Racist Undertones
Please read this news story, and then ask yourself, "When would African children be defiant in a fundamental Christian home?"
When the adoptive parents are white, and don't understand that they took their adoptive children away from their culture and friends.
I object strenuously to fundamentalist Christian families adopting children from another country where the culture there is dissimilar to their own.
These deaths also have the appearance of a racist element because in the two cases mentioned in the story, the children were of African descent.
If the children were defiant, then it could be that they had previously adapted to the culture of their country of origin. In one case, the girl who died was 7 years old. In the other case, the girl was old enough to have adapted to cultural norms for her country of origin.
Thus in both cases, the adoptive parents made errors in adopting African children who were old enough to adapt to their native culture, and thus would require more patience than the fundamental Christian parents who killed them had.
This is what I have objections with: adopting older children who have already adopted the cultural norms of their country of origin.
It's not the children's fault then.
It is the parents', because fundamental Christian values will have a harder time helping a children of a vastly different culture adapt to a strict upbringing where defiance is not tolerated at all.
Sadly though, a few fundamental Christian parents will ignore this and cause harm to a lot of older African adoptees. This will also impact society in the future if that strict upbringing leads to further defiance caused by child abuse.
For that defiance could actually be because the child knows it is wrong to be physically abused.
My focus in this blog entry are parents who physically abuse their children i.e. have gotten angry when their discipline does not work.
Child abuse is the ritual abuse of a child whilst pretending it's for the child's own good. However, it is not for the parents' good or the child's.
In the two cases found in the news story referenced, the two girls who died were adopted African children.
It actually is the inability of the parents to realize that the "defiance" they faced was because the children KNEW the ritual abuse is wrong.
For the parents to continue to abuse their adopted children in this way shows that whatever love they professed for these children was thrown away when they started to ritually abuse them.
"It is impossible that no offenses should come, but woe to him through whom they do come! It would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were thrown into the sea, than that he should offend one of these little ones." (Luke 17:1-2)

Racism as Patriarchal Legacy
IMHO racism began 40,000 years ago, about the time we assimilated the Neanderthal, outside of Africa, and just before the ancesters of the Native Americans, the Asians and the like migrated out of Central Asia.
When India was invaded by Aryans, patriarchism arose, matriarchism was suppressed and demonized, and gylandry was wiped out of existence before history began.
Today in India the essentially democratic societies are the tribals, because they practice the essence of what the Buddha taught. Hinduism does not because it is essentially patriarchal. It instead practices the essence of the Vedas.
Am I suggesting racism is a patriarchal ideology? Yes.
For racism exists as long as women of color remain oppressed.

Africa Oppressed by American Economic Empire
AFRICOM is why Africa consists of mostly 3rd-world nations.
Also all mention of "African peacekeepers" is propaganda. The truth is African troops aid in keeping Africa backwards so that America and its allies can continue to keep African nations poor and underdeveloped by restricting who can invest US dollars in foreign aid in a manner that America approves.
Humanitarian aid is being reduced, in a cruel effort of population control by starvation and manufactured conflict caused by unfair mistreatment of refugees and condoning internal strife in Sudan where Darfur became a contentious problem because of AFRICOM's military-industrial imperialism.
In essence, the US is the new economic empire whose policies in Africa are designed to extract natural resources cheaply, imposing a 21st-century colonialism which will only worsen the risk of civil war, sectarian violence, and impoverishment of Africans for decades to come.
Most conflict therefore are the US government's responsibility, since internal strife in African nations justify moving African troops in to support the corrupt regime in Somalia (run by a Somali-American who used to work in the US Dept. of Transportation), promote sectarian violence in central Africa, and maintain a SNAFU situation in Africa.
Therefore, Africa's problems originally due to previous European colonialism since the 18th century are continued under the US-backed colonialism by the American economic empire.

Globalism May Mitigate Racial Diversity's Influence On Racism
Racial diversity may encourage racism when nationalism blinds onself to pan-Asian-ism.
For when one opens one's eyes to the East, one's world becomes greater than the West.
Consequently you may have the whole world in your hand.
Indeed, if one is blinded to globalism, then one is very small indeed.
Thus do I believe it needs to be said again:
"Think globally, act locally!"

Of Putinjugend and The Current Slide Back into Fascism
Young Russians who believe in the Nashi doctrine must be exposed for the Putinjugend they are, and other peoples who believe an exclusive "us" means the others should be kicked out of their nations must always exposed.
For post-modern Russia, and the world at large, must remember is that if one speaks Russian, one is Russian regardless whether one's ancestors were originally Vikings, Germans, Polish, Chechens, "dark-skinned people", Mongolian, Turkish or Cossack.
Indeed, even if one's ancestry is Indian, if one speaks Russian, you are also Russian, regardless of what the Nashis say or do.
However, if either side chooses violence, then they have no right to claim Russia for their own - or whatever country in which they happen to reside. If anyone chooses violence, then it does not make them any more civilized than the people they fear.
For, to not choose violence implies "law-abiding".

Evolution of Racism in Canada After 1946
Much of the racism in the post-war period consisted of the use of verbal displays of animosity not backed up by government policy.
What helped aid in preventing government policy from affecting all ethnic communities began with the citizenship given to Japanese and other nationalities living in Canada from 1947 onwards. It helped that Diefenbaker, of Saskatchewan, was elected to power in the 1950s. He helped mold the Canadian psyche to accept the ideal of pluralism, where each citizen did not see himself as a hyphenated Canadian. Later, in the 1970s, Trudeau pushed the ideal of multiculturalism where ethnic communities could celebrate their heritage.
During the next 50 years, bias and prejudice evolved from attacks on the Japanese as a racial group to personal attacks on individuals within the Japanese community who did not conform to social pressures to "blend in." Any racial incident between a Japanese person and another person was seen as reflecting badly on the Japanese people as a whole.
As a result, the motivating forces of shame and guilt about Japan losing the war led the Japanese of the post-war era to assimilate into Western society, with a few of them remaining in the Interior of Canada, and the majority migrating eastward to urban centers east of the Rockies. However, a minority of Japanese-Canadians took the option to return to Japan after the war.
When Japanese who assimilated into mainstream society in Toronto moved back to B.C. to retire, they discovered cultural differences between themselves (who were higher educated and spoke mainly English) and the Japanese who never left B.C. (most of whom graduated high school but had varying command of both English and Japanese). In response, a few Japanese from Toronto who retired in B.C. soon realized a sense of loss due to the after-effect of internment. This has led to identification with victims of the Japanese militarists' regime between 1936 and 1945 in Asia, including victims of bio-chemical warfare in North Korea, Asian "comfort" women, and prisoners-of-war both Asian and non-Asian in prison camps throughout S.E. Asia.
In 1988 Japanese redress issues were resolved by the Canadian government through token payment to all Japanese born before 1946 and the establishment of the Canadian Race Relations Foundation. Since that time, anti-racism education has enlightened most of eastern Canada and urban centres in Western Canada.
By 2001, racism was seen as a person's cultural biases and prejudices rooted in fear of other cultures. In some ways, racism is a fear-based tool used by a person or group of people rooted in the psychological dynamics of the inferiority-superiority complex. The subconscious fear of racial inferiority results in an imagined racial superiority of one's own culture, while the fear of inferiority is projected as inferiority of the other culture. Rather than inquiring about them, the racist projects her fear about the other culture in a socially inappropriate manner.
Thus, the key to overcoming racism is through education.
