So I was looking through a staff report and I saw that Archy mentioned that sterotyping was racism and that sounded wrong to me so I decided to look it up.This is what I found,
@Archybot Am I misreading something or can you explain to me your reason for saying that… not trying to question your justification but I am just curious
This was the thread btw https://www.badlion.net/forum/thread/88808

Stereotyping is basically believing something is true based on other things that have happened.From that thread, that guy 'assumed' all arabs were rich just because they are a super power of oil. THAT IS RACISM.Posted on 09 January 2016 - 03:03 PM
@Syzaro hes not saying all Arabs are rich thoPosted on 09 January 2016 - 03:04 PM
He said Arabic people are rich. That indicates that he is referring to the entire race. I would mute him for that.Posted on 09 January 2016 - 03:05 PM
@Syzaro thats like saying that american people are obese, that's just a general statement that some people believe to be true, they are not referring to the entire country when saying that.Posted on 09 January 2016 - 03:06 PM
Well you can think of it as the entire country and you can think of it as only some people.Posted on 09 January 2016 - 03:06 PM
Imo by that guy saying 'Arabs are rich' that was sterotypical and racist.Posted on 09 January 2016 - 03:07 PM
Yea but in no way, shape or form is that person saying that their race has superior qualities which is what the definition of racism isPosted on 09 January 2016 - 03:07 PM
Arabia is a 3rd world country and quite a lot of people are poor around there.Posted on 09 January 2016 - 03:07 PM

the difference is that racism makes a stereotype based on race, religion, or national origin whereas stereotyping can be based on any characteristic.Posted on 09 January 2016 - 03:09 PM
Maybe arabs don't want to be rich.Posted on 09 January 2016 - 03:09 PM
Still racist.Posted on 09 January 2016 - 03:09 PM
so what do you think this is?Posted on 09 January 2016 - 03:10 PM
Have you seen Dubai, their hotels are made out of frickin gold.Posted on 09 January 2016 - 03:10 PM
This is racism as the muted person made a sterotype based on race. THAT is racism. The mute was justified I think.Posted on 09 January 2016 - 03:11 PM
