/sci/ - Science & Math

[Anonymous No.4341177]

Greetings /sci/! I am a poster from the other intellectual board, /lit/, and I have a question for you:

Is there any scientific way to determine if somebody is racist? I have a teacher who I suspect of being a racist. Having not encountered racists before in my life I was quite shocked, but the suspicions seemed valid enough to warrant investigation. I'd like to be sure before I take action on it, but racism is a very serious accusation.

Thank you in advance!

There is no way to measure if a person is something as vague as a 'racist'. However, there are ways to measure if someone is a troll: judge the way he posts.

And I have determined that OP is a troll.

How am I a troll? I'm just concerned for my fellow classmates and thought that this would be the place to come.

It's pretty sad when you can't ask questions about ANYTHING without idiots jumping to the troll accusation.

It wouldn't have been so bad if you didn't start off with, "blah, blah, blah another board."

[Anonymous No.4341199]

as a /sci/entist, i would tell you construct an experiment. what race is your teacher? and yourself? why do you suspect your teacher of being racist?

Well it is African American history month and he keeps calling it black history month. He also seems to be marginalizing the suffering of African Americans throughout history and acting like terrible atrocities like slavery and segregation are commonplace throughout history.

I just don't think that somebody who isn't racist could be that ignorant.

[Anonymous No.4341206]

you know why black history month is in febuary

CAUSE ITS THE SHORTEST MONTH OF THE YEAR !!!

Nah this is definitely a troll thread.

If you actually are serious, no, there is no way to scientifically determine an abstract opinion.

[Anonymous No.4341211]

>>4341204
Umm they are commonplace? And 'african american' sounds more racist to me than black, though, granted, it's not exactly correct. Do you have any other reason? If you wanna try something empirical I'm still willing to help. Are there any black kids in your class?

>he thinks racism is an opinion

I didn't think people would be so ignorant on the SCIENCE board. How is racism an opinion? It isn't like what movies or shows you like, it's rooted it ignorance.

You must be a shitty philosophy student who just discovered moral relativism and thinks it's SO DEEP.

>implying the same people

I can't vouch for the first two posts but I'm not then.

It's perfectly rational to substitute African American with Black, while not entirely politically correct, and slavery and segregation were commonplace.

For perspective, Hinduism was born from the Aryan Vedas and their segregation of the natives.

Maybe this would be a problem on Facebook but on 4chan this is common opinion.

Maybe opinion was the wrong term.

Psychology =/= Science

No, there is no way to find out if your teacher is racist through science.

[Anonymous No.4341257]

Is the word "black" actually not pc? Why?

Golly, next thing you'll tell me that engineers aren't scientists. This board is full of morons.

racism is a good thing. before liberal retards took over the world there was a good amount of data supporting the belief that despite being able to breed with each other races were physiologically different in meaningful ways. this caused politically correct asshats to get butthurt.

racism is just an acknowledgement that some breeds of people have advantages and disadvantages compared against others. unfortunately in today's world of hugging and feeling and being politically correct retards acknowledging these facts is considered evil.
