>>212264709But isn't this the core of "racism" today?
It all seemed to be centred around not having a word for a group of people. The very act of naming them - is racist, because you are inherently labelling an inferior group of people.
Negro, Blacks, Coloured, African American, Person of Colour. The constant shifting is because the moment you label this group of people, the moment then are you labelling an inferior group of people.
If you talk about Indians or India, you are racist by default. Because you are talking about a backward country, a more primitive society with customs and a culture that resort to what any civilized person would frown upon as repulsive and immoral.
The only legit (not racist) way to talk about other cultures, are a euro-centric approach where you talk about these inferior groups in relation to westerners in a manner that put the inferiority onto westerners. i.e. The brits are the reason why India is so dirty. It was the European colonial powers that drew some wicked borders which is why there is so much war in Africa etc..
