Hello,
Sometimes I surprise myself with themes I come up. Although, this particular theme has been discussed and everyone knows how it should be, but I just wanted to point out my opinion.
Simple opinion – I don’t understand people being racist and it shouldn’t be a thing.
I was thinking the other day – why do people care how somebody looks like? Or where they are from? Genuine question. Okay, you don’t look same as me, but instead of being rude, I would love to get to know you and understand why you are different. I see beauty in being different. I seriously don’t understand racist people. How can you hate someone without knowing them?
Doesn’t make any sense. I get that you may not like something, which is totally fine, but hate? I don’t know, I never hated people just because they don’t look same as me. I hated people if they done something to me or if they are rude to somebody else. Never would cross my mind to hate a total stranger, especially, when I don’t know them.
I think people sometimes are too focused on the things that do not matter. Honestly, I don’t see how somebody being from Africa or Asia affects me… People nationalities? Last thing you should care about, it literally doesn’t matter.
You know how sometimes beautiful things can hurt you? Well, yeah, they can. And just because somebody is more acceptable in your opinion (if we are talking about looks), doesn’t mean they are better. Just because you like a cover of a book, doesn’t mean the book is interesting. I am not saying now that all beautiful people are bad. No. Obviously, there is always black and white.
I think the most important stuff is for people to learn not to fight for stupid reasons, stop hating for stupid reasons.
If somebody is different we should learn about it and understand it.
I have said many many times, if there would be 1 race, 1 gender and 1 culture, basically, one of everything, how many things would disappear. Would be no reason to fight, no reason to hate. Everyone would be the same and no one would have issue with that.
When people are racist, I always think they are not very intelligent. Simply because hating something for no reason doesn’t make any sense to me. So okay, imagine, if these people can hate someone for no reason, what they are capable to do to people that they have reason to hate? What kind of act they are capable to make because of hating for a reason? Terrifying, isn’t?
I mean I do understand if somebody hurt you and they were from different race or nationality. But does it mean because of 1 experience/person/example you are going to hate all nation? Let’s say many of my friends in Lithuania did hurt me, does it mean now I hate Lithuanians? Well, no. Because there are still many good people out there.
People need to stop hating and start looking at themselves. So many people are too focused what other people do, instead of creating their own life and improving themselves. Easier to look how to improve somebody else than yourself, right?
Answer is simple, racism should not exist.
