Re: Are Thai taught to be racist people.
All very interesting. I'd really love to chat but I'm off to teach some Thais about racism. Today's lesson is on how to effectively insult the darkies.

Re: Are Thai taught to be racist people.
Check out the new Nas album
for a pretty dope dissertation on racism.
It's called "Untitled (Nigger)".
The record company wouldn't touch it.

Aren't all countries racist to a degree? For example the English with the Welsh and Americans with Canadians. It's all the same.

There's a big difference between racism and nationalism...

Having lived in Asia since the '70's, I can guarantee that racism wasn't taught from outside of any of these countries, it's not like white people are given much credence here, is it? If you want a little history on racism, just look at the toothpaste (granted it was first made in Taiwan, but it's used everywhere in Asia, including here in Thailand).

Re: Are Thai taught to be racist people.
As one who has benefited mightily from the Black Man's efforts (I wear cotton shirts) and His Contributions to world cuisine ("More fufu with that green slime"?), I feel it is time to give thanks to the 9" dick brigade for widening my horizons.

Are your horizons the only thing those 9-inches have widened?
