Why so many diffrent fish?

Without racism. Life would have remained as the original source was, because the original source of life would have never evolved into diffrent races that prefer themselves over other races, that eventually evolved into different species.

So you're saying that all life is racist because there are so many different fish. What are some of the races of fish?

Canada should put a 6 or 12 month moratorium on letting anymore Muslims into this country until we see the full effects of what is going to happen to those crossing illegally into Canada from the USA on our southern border.

Why do we need Muslims here anyways!!

Canada's unemployment rate is a high 7%, why are we bringing in people who can't or don't work??

.
We should have a government policy that stated that nobody comes into Canada until the unemployment rates drops below 3 or 4 %.
This would get the government going eh

**states** not stated

That will really spur our travel industry into a hiring sptee eh. You want to increase or lower the rate? What about foreign importers coming to meet a potential exporter?

The motion is not racist at all.

Islamophobia is a very clear and obvious concept.



https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cultural_racism



So is anti semitism, anti black racism, sexism, anti religion, homomisia, sectarianism, christianophobia, fanatism, and of course clearly not racism, but discrimination of white people. There is not doubt that as all of the above, Islamophobia exists, but the sentiment is shared by 'some' not the majority. By showcasing this specific one in a political motion, it was racism to all other people not falling under Islam. It was a mistake that has and will bring out more bigotry.

No, the majority recognise Islamophobia as racism.

It's the racists that can't.

You're comprehention is very low i can see.
I said there is so many different species of fish and animals on earth as the result of racism. Without this characteristic, Earth would have never achieved the wondeful biodiversity it has.

Development of a new race within a species eventually branches iout into its very own species of life.

Biodiversity has been achieved on earth partly due to racism. From that perspective racsim is not bad at all. But it takes a really intelligent person to even understand something as complex as that.

And frankly we all know you're dumb as fuk

Sonetimes what seems bad too us over the short period of a small life time is a very good thing over a long period of existence for life when considered in millions of years.

Things change when you look at them from doffrent perspectives.

But how could a dumb fuk like you ever understand something as conplex as that?

Remember. Our life time is a fraction of a second in the lifetime of the universe.

without racism humans would have never existed at all.

Life would still be in ameba form.

Yes, culture is a form of race.

I'm sorry you're wrong.

Try and be right next time.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cultural_racism
Linking to a wiki article does NOT forward your argument. It's not like just any moron can create a wiki page based on what they think they know or edit an existing page. Oh wait, yes they can.
So answer me this, is Christianity a race? Simple question, yes or no. If I don't like Christians and don't want them anywhere near me, does that make me a racist as well?

Cultures are a set of ideals. Race/ethnicity is set in stone. If you're Black, you can't be White. You can try and "act" White or whatever but you cannot be White and vice versa.
I can choose to be a Muslim. I can't choose my ethnicity/race. I was essentially forced into Christianity as a kid because my parents were Christian. I chose to opt out by the time I was a teenager. I can't choose not to be White.

You don't like Trump because of his beliefs and ideals. That's not racism, and you know what? It still wouldn't be if he was Black, or Latino, or Arabic.

In fact, to truly look at how inane the whole "cultural racism" thing is, look at the US and Canada. Two very similar countries with very similar ethnic backgrounds (ALL of them, not just the Western Europeans), religious beliefs, laws, morals etc. Yet, there's a border between our countries, not because of nationality today, but because there are enough cultural differences between our two countries to warrant keeping that border. And not just since Trump either so don't even bother.
Yet there are a number of Canadians who strongly dislike, if not hate Americans. Not just America, but Americans in general. Are they racists?

Sorry old sock, but nobody who can think for themselves is going to fall for any of your alt-left revisionist bullsh*t.

Oh, and one last thing about terror groups and those who support them in general. Remember back in the '70s and and '80s when the IRA was really in its hay day? There were quite a few Irish Americans who were lending material support to the IRA, stuff like cash and weapons. The Reagan govt stomped all over that sh*t and put a quick end to it, including some deportations.
Yet for some reason, terrorist supporting organizations like CAIR are given f*ckin' legitimacy today. "Ehrmergherd! They're not White. We can't say jack sh*t or else we'll be labeled as racists". Yeah, go take a running f*ck at a rolling donut.

There's already a term for what you describe, it's called bigotry. Something you've demonstrated in your own self.

Islamophobia isn't racism because Islam is not a race.

That said, I think the motion should have addressed religious prejudice generally and not only that directed against Muslims.

Ate you saying that a lion parliament once existed that prohibited tigers from migrating into its territory?

The majority of who?

Canadians

Islamophobia isn't racism because Islam is not a race.

It's both a religion and a race (based on culture).

Just as the imagined 'Aryan race' wasn't exclusively about biology but partly European culture.

The difference is that the latter claimed to be a master race whereas the former is peacefully coexisting with other races.

Your argument is flawed as Muslims are not a race, they follow Islam, a religion, but certainly cannot be (culturally or not) called a race. Not all Muslim are born Muslims! There might be way to loosely use 'cultural racism' but it's debatable and it could only be attributed to certain people who perceive their faith or way of life as 'culturally superior to other groups'. So in essence this motion was saying that Islamic is superior to western belief, could that have been the premise of this motion? Islamaphobe exist and is wrong, but so is intolerance of every kind, if your going to address racism, then address it as a problem for all religion, not just one in particular and by extension calling all others racist. You cannot reconcile this motion as being equal to all.

There is biological racism and cultural racism.


The racism against Islam is mostly the latter.


Example, white catholic guy discriminates against white muslim guy. That is a racism based on culture.

You do realize don't you that not all Muslims speak the same languages, read the same secular literature, eat the same food, dwell in the same kind of houses, or wear the same clothes?

Culture and race are separate too. For example, a black child adopted by Chinese parents and raised in China would still be black even though she'd be culturally Chinese.

Islam is a religion to and from which some people convert and which some people practice.

I don't think the motion is saying that Islam is a superior religion, nor even that it condones discrimination against followers of other religions. But it does seem to suggest that Islamophobia is somehow more worthy of condemnation than other forms of discrimination on the basis of religion.

Islam is not a religion, it's an ideology.

There's a difference between a religion and an ideology. The Jewish, Christian, and Muslim Faiths are religions, whereas Zionism, Christian Reconstructionism, and Islamism are ideologies.

Imagine if, because blacks suffer more from racism than whites, we decided to rewrite the laws to put more emphasis on discrimination against blacks. Now imagine if one day the tables are turned and it's whites. So we rewrite the laws to shift the emphasis to whites. And if one day the main target of racism is far easterners, so we rewrite the law again?

Is it not more efficient to just write one law that covers all bases and that takes into account the possibility of change so that the law does not become outdated so quickly and so save politicians extra work?

Our racial-discrimination laws just cover all races equally. Though in pracitce blacks might benefit more from the law due to more racism against blacks, a white man can benefit just as much from it in principle if ever a black person discriminated unjustly against him.

Same with our sexual-violence laws. Though women benefit from our rape laws more than men do usually, the law is still gender neutral so that a man raped by a woman can benefit form it too. That way if ever one day the statistics become reversed, we won't need to rewrite the law.

It's just a question not only of justice but also of efficiency. Let's write laws that last.
