Re: Whites only: Your views on asiansNothing "lol" about it. If you notice, the people who clicked no were mainly people like "badcheesecrispy, RyanT" and annoyingly "hamzazulfiqar" I know the OP said "Whites only" but I clicked the top option because the bottom option is clearly not the majority view.(Original post by A Mysterious Lord)
LOL, public poll.
By being private, you can get more "hamzazulfiqar's" clicking "No" to skew the poll
Interestingly, I've noticed that you haven't voted -

Re: Whites only: Your views on asiansI see Pakistani students at my university and they are usually very loud, joking and acting very strangely and always saying words like bruv, oi, etc even when they are at university.
But, this doesn't make them any less valuable as human beings, I believe this type of thing exist in all cultures it's too bad the media portrays them always in a bad light. -

How do you define British behaviour??(Original post by levantine)
Also how do you define british behaviour?
Is this the ultimate philsophical question that has all the kids on Birmingham's estates perplexed? Twice in the same thread, nevermind all the times I've seen it on TSR period.
Let me break it down for you.
If you have an intellectual problem with struggling to understand how to define culture in a precise and legalistic language that is your problem. I can recommend watching the English by Kate Fox as a good starting point to engaging with anthropology, but your ignorance of anthropology is not a debating tool. It just makes you a tool.Last edited by RyanT; 03-05-2012 at 23:11. -

Re: Whites only: Your views on asiansokay, not gonna lie, i stalked your picture...what asian are you? look pretty white to me(Original post by ConnorB)
I'm half Asian. But no one ever realises. Even when I tell them they think I'm pulling their leg. Most people at most think I'm Portguese or Italian. Either way, you'd be surprised how many convos you hear with racial slurs in them when you are...

Re: Whites only: Your views on asiansMuslims regard their religion FIRST anyway so don't feel like you are superior or something..(Original post by RyanT)
Using the word Asians is unfair, the Chinese/East Asians are nothing like the south Asians.
East Asians are fairly well integrated and it is fair to call them equals.
South Asians that go to the mosque? No, that's not British behaviour so they're still immigrants regardless of where they're born. -

Re: Whites only: Your views on asiansHow dare they exercise their rights under a secular democracy, which guarantees religious freedom. That is a fundamental part of democracy and if you are indeed against religious freedom, then you would be at direct odds with democracy(Original post by RyanT)

Re: Whites only: Your views on asiansWhat about South Asians or Africans who go Church? Are they British? Since Christianity isn't a religion that originated from around here either..(Original post by RyanT)

Re: Whites only: Your views on asiansI could go on for a while naming Germans who supported the Nazi's doesn't mean the majority of Germans are antisemitic.(Original post by lulubel)

unfortunately, i could go on for a while listing white victims of asian race hate gangs.
( i am not calling all pakistanis racist, just that there is a big problem with racism in the community that no one wants to talk about. )

Re: Whites only: Your views on asiansHe never said the majority of Pakistani's were racist. He said that they had a racism problem, which is something entirely different.(Original post by Beebumble)

Re: Whites only: Your views on asiansThis is RyanT we're talking about here(Original post by James A)
I've seen you on other threads, with racist views too.
I hope your trolling, because if you aren't
Because what you said wasn't racist at all(Original post by lulubel)
asians?
well, there are lots of different asians. the pakistani community in certain places has a racist and supremacist attitude. certain parts of the country are no go zones for whites or non muslim asians.
pakistanis are widely regarded as the most racist group in britain today.
There are White people who have the same attitudes as certain Pakistanis, but that doesn't mean that White people are the most racist group in Britain
The irony was that you were being racist yourself, and that's one group. You can find lots of articles where the opposite is the case(Original post by lulubel)
no irony. pointing out racism is does not make one a racist:

Re: Whites only: Your views on asiansLol. I'm white but i can relate to this. It's amazing what people say when they're think noone who isn't their race is around. Racist jokes etc. Like it's not offensive if they can't hear it!(Original post by ConnorB)
I'm half Asian. But no one ever realises. Even when I tell them they think I'm pulling their leg. Most people at most think I'm Portguese or Italian. Either way, you'd be surprised how many convos you hear with racial slurs in them when you are...

I live in Leicester. There are ALOT of Asian people here. Some are great, some are aren't, just like any other race. Of course they're equal to us. -

Re: Whites only: Your views on asiansI agree, again what he said does not contradict a single word you responded with?(Original post by de_monies)
Every group has a racism problem. It's not restricted to Pakistanis...
He said they had a reputation as the most racist group. If all the other groups are 2% racist and Pakistani's are 3% racist, then the reputation would still be fair and correct.
I've noticed a lot of the cultural marxists in this thread are subconciously misunderstanding language. You have built up a strawman that I have just shown is untrue. I hope you see our position a bit more clearly now.
