It is crippling to see, to hear, and to understand twice. To see both the exact moment and the obvious reasons, and the history of the event. When someone speaks, expresses an opinion, I see both the immediate thought and circumstances, and the entirity of human existence. Abuse as dominance. Abuse as the extermination of foriegn genes. Abuse as a cultural element of acceptance and discipline. Power and dictatorship in the individual. Cruelty as purely human. Racism as a function of tribalism. Racism as extrapolation on individual experience. Racism as an explanation. An excuse for everyone. It gives those that are the object of racism the excuse to fail at life. Failure as defined as having a short, unhappy life, without education or oportunity for change. It gives the perpetrators of racism a scapegoat for everything. It allows them to live in a fantasy world.

Racism is a mistake because it destroys and distorts everyone invovled. It prevents people from looking critically at themselves. All they can do is rabidly attack. The black man is destroying our culture. The white man is destroying our culture. You have no culture. You have your group illusions. Stand as a humans, or we will make you fall.
