Are you a racist if you prefer to live in a mono-ethnic society?

[Хahar 🤔]

No. For example I have no racial prejudices, but I only find white women attractive. So I would like to live in a society in which everyone is white because I will find more women I'm attracted to.

Most spergin' post ever?

I love this Forum.

Not necessarily but generally and the preference makes little sense to me. Countries with many emigrants, a variety of religions, styles of cuisine, music and art are the best. The trade-off in social solidarity isn't worth giving up what makes organic societies in the 21st century.

I think it's you Americans who make a virtue out of necessarity  (an admirable trait), you don't have the choice (at least not without some very unpleasant policies), but it doesn't mean that other countries or their population whom have the choice have to share the same attitude.

Of course the question is also what people mean with mono-ethnic, if people says that they prefer to live in a 100% mono-ethnic state I would likely raise my eyebrows, but for most it just mean that the vast majority of the population belong to the same national/ethnic identity group, but minorities still exist.

That's the greatest post I've ever read in my life. A++, would read again.

And no.

It's not inherently racist. However, it unavoidably leads to rampant xenophobia, and xenophobia oftentimes turns into racism.

I have only one word to you; Switzerland.

Explain, please. It's news to me that people in Switzerland desire to live in a mono-ethnic society. I mean, you know that this country has never been and can by definition never be "mono-ethnic", don't you?

Perhaps his point was that Switzerland is quite racist despite being multiethnic?

Making generalisations about Switzerland is quite ridiculous anyway because the different parts that make up Switzerland are so different linguistically, culturally and politically speaking. And I contend that those who make generalisations about Switzerland such as "Switzerland is racist" know little to nothing about the country.

[Insula Dei]

Is it racist if I'd rather not shake hands with chinese people?

It truly depends on your concept of ethnicity.

Is It physical? Yes you are racist scum.
Is It cultural? No, you're probably only some kind of bigot. Maybe.

[greenforest32]

Skin color is irrelevant and an immigration ban based on skin color or on nationality from a country predominantly composed of a race you don't like does strike me as racist. If your culture is threatened by the non-[insert ethnicity], then that's a problem with the culture, not with "the others".

you gotta chill with that display name

I think the problem wasn't solely the length of it, but the lack of spaces in it. It looks like the forum doesn't indent names without spaces. BRTD has used some long names and it never did that.

Well, it's definitely anti-Islam. What about the burqa ban? That's pretty racist.

But then it's unfair to single out Switzerland, since Belgium and France have similar laws. And I don't agree with the assessment that a burqa ban is racist. On the contrary, I would say it's a measure against a form of blatant oppression of women.

I singled out Switzerland, because it's just as xenophobic as the its more homogene neighbours. When someone adopt the talking point that homogene countries lead to xenophobia, it's interesting to take a peaceful first world heterogene country, and show that it do not significant differ from its neighbours.

It was (mostly) a joke. I mean most of the stuff I said individually at a stretch, but when I put it together I realised how ridiculous it sounded. I posted it anyway for the lulz.
