Heres a quote:
"Racism is the belief in the superiority of one race over another, which often results in discrimination and prejudice towards people based on their race or ethnicity. As of the 2000s, the use of the term "racism" does not easily fall under a single definition."
Let's say we are all different, because we are, no matter how hard it sounds.
Now different race, or ethnic groups might have different genetic predisposition, or diametrically different culture.
People might say "They are f***ing animals!", and perhaps be even disgusted if their brain see a strong pattern in a behavior.
Very important thing in saying that one race might be superior over another, is if the claiming is justified by facts, or if it's just a prejudice.
There are different races on sythe.org so naturally we call ourselves names, because we can't help ourselves.

Edit: this pertains to portrayed racism online
It could also simply be a type of response bias.
Hidden behind the veil of their computers, people who are either outlandishly racist in real life or trolls feel like they can express their thoughts without reprecussions.
There are many more non racist people, I would like to believe. You just won't see them posting nearly as often.

In my opinion it's the community they live in and people that surround you, If you come across a certain person with an X religion,race or country and hear or see them constantly mess up or damage the community you'll generate ideological hate and by time it'll transform into racism to that religion,race or country.

Removed some flaming spam posts. I realize this is a inflamed topic, but let’s keep it civil. This isn’t spam forum.
Edit: this should also be in the general discussion section, I’ll let someone with perms move it.

I think it has to do more with immaturity than actual racism. People tend to say ignorant things online because they are not face to face with a real human being. Obviously a lot of the people posting “niggers” ect on spam forum are most likely not saying it irl or on their social media.
As far as people who are in fact racist, stems from ignorance of certain races/cultural influence.
Same as any prejudice wether it’s racism, homophobia, ect.
People tend to put down things they aren’t familiar with, possibly because they don’t have any loved ones that are black, gay, have a mental illness or whatever the case may be.
It’s far easier for someone to go around spamming “kill niggers” or “retards” if they don’t have a little sister who has Down syndrome or a best friend who’s black, ect.

Everyone that I know that use Racist term like the N word, do it to be edgy .... Dont think alot of people online are really ''racist'' but just replicate edgy word and term...

I don't associate people using the n word as a racist. You should join the discord and spend like 10 minutes there daily, then you would know what I mean.

SF is one thing, but when people post conspiracy theories and add links then you start to think they might be serious about it.
