Discrimination, racism, IDIOTIC!!!

What have some people got against people who are different?
This is an issue i am very much against. Judging someone because they are from a different country, have another colour skin, or just because they look or speak differently, is incredibly stupid, idiotic and completely wrong.
This is a problem we as a species have faced for thousands of years; race discrimination. I for one believe that all these differences make every person unique, special, and beautiful.
So what drives some people to hate an entire race of people, be it any race? I suppose in neanderthal, nomadic times, it would have been something along the lines of 'survival of the fittest'. You would have stuck up for your own family or group, and everyone else would be hated and killed because your family or group came first for resources, land, and anything required.
I guess that frame of mind still remains in some cases.
What doesn't help is the fact that blaming other races for our problems is a speciality of governments.
The American government makes us believe that practically all Muslim people are terrorists. I believe this is merely a ruse to subtract attention from the governments plot to get control of oil sources. Sure, there are terrorists, but that doesn't mean that anyone who follows Allah (generally a peaceful bunch) is going to blow everyone else up.
And indigenous Australians; the aboriginals. The government has that thing to 'help' the children. The government isn't very subtle in that they're not trying to help people, they want control of the land that is rightfully aboriginal territory.
Racism is a massive handicap on society. People should not have to be ashamed of where they come from for fear of discrimination or even physical abuse. Hopefully one day racism will be a thing of the past, and EVERYONE will be able to live safe, happy lives without the fear of discrimination.

peace, to everyone.

Hurting people

I hate hurting people. Mentally that is. Just seeing someone i have hurt can have me lying awake at night, guilty, for weeks on end.
Everybody says or does things without thinking, and i believe most people regret it afterwards, and feel the guilt.
So how do some people spend all their time insulting people, hurting people, killing people mentally? Why doesn't the guilt keep them awake all night? How do they live with themselves?
Maybe they honestly cannot see the problems they cause. Maybe these people are devoid of feelings, other than smug satisfaction that they have insulted someone 'unworthy' of being associated with in a friendly manner.
And then there are those people who are in more than friendly relationships and one day say "i never liked you anyway". That's just cruel. Dumping people at all is horrible to do, but if it has to be done, it can be done in a more sensitive way. There is no 'nice' way to dump or reject people, but you can try to show empathy.
I myself have hurt people before, and to them i am so sorry.
But to those people who hurt others based on things that make them unique and special, you are the scum of the earth. I hate you.

peace and happiness

'Experts'

Don't you just hate it when people automatically think they are the best at something? When a task pops up, they step forward and say 'i know what to do' in this really smug tone, and of course everyone else who knows what to do is completely and utterly wrong.
Maybe it is a trait of humanity, or at least some people, to believe they are better than everyone else, and in their own minds see themselves as best for the job.
Admittedly, sometimes these people ARE the best for the job, but then they act all superior. And then there are those other smart people who stay back because they know their own ability, and know that they honestly have no idea what they are talking about or what to do.
But the general annoyance is still there.
It happens with things as irrelevant as opening a box. Lets say person 1 says "i cant open this box", and immediately persons 2, 3, 4 and 5 all jump in and claim they can open the box, they know what to do. If someone else does manage to do it, of course, in their own mind everyone else could have done it better, or faster. Maybe these people just like being noticed. Maybe they like being the centre of attention, and being seen as an expert for a while.
I say: give other people a chance to prove their worth once in a while. If you know what to do and no one else does, fair enough. But if a whole ton of people are 'experts', there is no point in fighting to do something that everyone else 'knows' they can do better anyway.

peace out
