Why do whites hate blacks so much?

[Planet Asia]

I wonder whats up with all the covert racism and prejudice and how it all started in the first place? Its not as if we have a reason to be hated because when one looks at history we were the most wrong ones, not white people, in America.

We might have disagreements but not genuine racist hate of the type done by whites and most other nonwhites who hate blacks are just mimicing white people sinc most have never even live near nor interacted with black people.

It comes down to why anyone hates anyone, specifically hating people you don't personnally know-- a lot of perceptional issues. But, it just shows how stupid and unthoughtful people are-- what I'm saying seems cliched to me.

You should have titled your thread 'Why do caucasoids hate Blacks so much!?'. Historically, Arabs and Imazighen* were the first caucasoid groups to enter in conact with subsaharan africans; Visit southern Morocco/Algeria and Arabia to have an idea of how much Blacks are -sometimes hiddenly- hated. You can also read pre-islamic arabic poettry, its full of indications. I dont know then which groups imitated the others (Arabs/Imazighen or Europeans).

* Intentionally, I didnt put Ancient Egyptians in top of the list, to save you psychlogical damage.

In order to hate, you have to care.
I don't think white people "hate" black people at all. At least, I don't know anyone who does.
Why should they?

Berter, I think Bass should have named the thread: "Why do Whites and Blacks in the USA hate each other"? Although it´s more of a love/hate relationship, IMHO.
BTW, Berter, I didn´t know North Africans disliked Blacks that much. According to the Moroccan poster Atlantis, that feeling is rare.

Well, it's not because of skin color, I can tell you that much.

And I don't think whites 'hate' blacks to begin with. But since your whole gig seems to be based on this misconception, I'm not expecting you wanting to understand this.

United States is certainly the location on Earth where the hate towards Blacks reaches it maxima; But that doesnt deny the existence of that kind of feeling in other places where Blacks and Caucasoids meet. As I said above, things must have happened in that order : the hate of Blacks should logically have appeared first in peripheral regions of Subsaharan Africa such as Southern North Africa (-- Touaregs realm), Horn of Africa and Southern Arabia (Bedouin domains). Later, european Whites enslaved Blacks en masse, hated them (for objective reasons, I suppose), made their race known to the rest of the world and GLOBALISED their hate.

BTW, Berter, I didn´t know North Africans disliked Blacks that much. According to the Moroccan poster Atlantis, that feeling is rare.

For the non natives of Tamazgha, thats the appearent reality. The natives know that kind of feeling does exist, its only not expressed for religious reasons (--- egalitarian view of Men by Islam).

You should be in the black box to know whats in it; I'm a native of Tamazgha, Atlantis isnt.

Berter is 100% right. Read The Arabian Nights which was written centuries before Europeans took black slaves. In this world-famous work of literature blacks are described--by Arabs--as lazy, shiftless and lusting after white women. (They're also described as having larger genitalia.)

It's funny, reading the opinions of another culture about sub-Saharans. It's scary that so many of the same attributes assigned to them arose independently in two different cultures.

[The whole plot ofThe Arabian Nights turns on a king whose wife cheated on him with a black slave. He's going to cut off her head for the insult, but she manages to stay alive night after night by telling him stories with cliffhangers. Thus we are treated to 100s of interconnected tales.]

;D lol, at mestizo toasty trying to make funny (j/k)

Naw, most Americans all feel the same way as Chris Rock who famously said : "I love Black people, but I just can't stand ni%%ers!". ;D LOL!

I dont hate blacks, I'm just against those which are or could be a threat to my group and people or higher long term goals. As long as thats not the case they are just humans specialised for a different environment and I'm fine with all people.

Perhaps it's this mentality and the resulting persona in blacks that irritates white people.

Melani,
Toasty has as much Indian blood as Sir Winston Churchill. If Churchill was a "mestizo" because of a grandmother with Amerindian blood than I guess Toasty is, too.

If, however, the common consensus is that Churchill was white, then Toasty is white.

Mestizo connotes a 50-50 mixture, which neither Toasty nor Churchill are.

So don't be a dope. How dare you imply that Toasty has no right to have an opinion on sub-Saharans. What does one thing have to do with another?

(I'd love to have seen you go back in time and listen as you tried to convince people that Winston Churchill had no right to talk about different races, and furthermore as people laughed at you as you implied that he shouldn't rightfully be allowed into "White Only" establishments.) Is Johnny Depp a "darkie," too? --He has more Indian blood than Churchill and Toasty combined.

Is he not allowed to have opinions on sub-Saharans, either?

* Please explain your thought-processes.
