Waging War on HIVE

It is not racist to call a Black person Black.

Oh, you're so very wrong. Did you ever try? I used to work in HP and greeting one of my co-workers with words "Hi my black friend" ended up with me having long and difficult talk with human resources.

I was then instructed, that it is racism to call Black people "black". And when I told them that few Nigerians that have been working there are calling me (and others) "white boys" -> I've learned that in the court racism works one way only. And that calling people like me "WHITE" is okey, but calling them "BLACK" is not.

Racism unfortunatelly is one sided weapon.

Lol,
You are retarded, yes if you say "my Black friend", and are like exlaiming that someone is Black in a room full of other people and embarrassing them, it could be considered Racist.

To do the same to a White person is not racist, and the word Black itself as in Black Community, Black People, etc is still not racist.

And you then say in your comment you learned it only goes one way... You realize you are calling my Black Wife a Racist for calling a White person White, that's the exact situation. You all are White, and one person even said my Black Wife threatened them by calling them White, and the whole thing started when I said Deranged Visions is spending an awful lot of time on HIVE and ought to have a feed full of beautiful vacations, and that White people should stop bothering others when they get paid, and then literally the last thing I said to them was "White people need to take a Vacation", and then they proceeded to call my Wife a Racist for even saying I said that to a White person.

So go ahead and keep attacking a Black person as "Racist" for calling a White person White, while yourself saying you know it's not racist to do what she did.

And have I tried? I hardly know any White people, I am a Black Identity Extremist according to Right Wing Governments.

It's probably best to think of it this way, when you say Black are you talking with that person, about a community they feel they are part of.

Or are you talking at that person, and being the factor that is discriminating that they are different than others. Or even in Private being forceful to let them know they are different, even if it's meant to be friendly.

When you say "Black People", the "Black Community", are you at your White dinner table? And what are your kids learning from your Tone and Perception? That's how you figure out if it's Racist.
