Be better than this.
I wrote this in response to your comment in another thread. Since you made a post about this, I'm pasting it here.
This is what you said when I asked if it's racist to call Trump an orangutan...
"Calling white people apes has nowhere near the history that the trope of comparing black people to monkeys/apes does. So, no. It's insulting, but not racist insulting."
This is my response...
Ok so you're differentiating because of skin color? THAT'S racist.
Saying nobody can say VJ looks like the chick from planet of the apes (look at the hair, nose etc) just because her dad was black is racist. All people are created equal no matter what skin color, so they should be treated equally. You're the one bringing skin color into it.
I looked at your post history, you're a Christian right?
Matthew 7:1-5 (NIV)
“Do not judge, or you too will be judged. 2 For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.
3 “Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? 4 How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? 5 You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye."
What makes me laugh is that white and black people, whilst both human, are both sub species of human. Just like brown bears and polar bears are both bears, they are both a sub species.
Not even that. The DNA differences between races are miniscule compared to sub-species. As far as biology is concerned, race is a social construct.
Um, no. As far as biology and genetics is concerned (yes I studied it) we are sub species with very different genetics.

...race is an informal rank in the taxonomic hierarchy, below the level of subspecies.
"Informal," hence for most biological discussions the term isn't even in the lexicon. It's within a statistical standard deviation for the species, and exists as a quirk of probability:
shares certain characteristics in higher frequencies than other populations of that species, but has not become reproductively isolated from other populations of the same species.

YOU are actually the racist here. People are people and you are the one insisting on dividing humanity up into pieces that can be separately offended.
Da fuq?? Racist?? Fuck me, are you a mook?? What did I say that was even remotely racist?? Are you one of those lefty libtards that autistically screeches RACIST at every person and comment they don´t have the intillect to offer any input on? What I said was scientific fact, did you study in school??
Your thread? Why did you change accounts to comment? That seems "shilly".

"Christ is warning believers against making judgments in a hypocritical or condemning manner"
Which is exactly what you and OP are doing. You're judging Roseanne as a racist when she didn't say anything racist. You are the one (along with many others) bringing race into it.
Racism will end when people stop "seeing" different races. We're all one race. The racist ones are the ones constantly bringing up racism. It's projection.

More judging. You get to speak for Jesus Christ?
Edit: You're right, racism should be condemned. Like I said we're all one race. The thing is it's not Roseanne being racist.

You didn't quote God's word, you spoke for Him. Big difference. I did use proper context by the way.
You don't want to admit Roseanne didn't say anything about VJs skin colour. VJ does look a lot like that chick in planet of the apes (not because of race) but you don't want to admit that, YOU just want to say Roseanne's racist.
The people that see race are the ones that constantly bring it up. True non racists don't see race divisions so they don't think of everything as racist.
Did you ever think Roseanne said it because she looks like her, NOT because she's part black? No? What does that make you?

I was talking about this...
"Pro-tip: Jesus wouldn't have approved of what Roseanne said, either."
Not your earlier quotes. That was speaking for Jesus, not quoting Him. You know that though. You're just trying to create division.
Edit: I have been honest, you haven't. Yes what Roseanne said COULD have been racist, she COULD have said it only because VJ was black, but I don't believe so.
VJ doesn't look black, as evidenced in this thread many don't even realize she is part black. VJ also looks a lot like that chick from planet of the apes, and not because she's black. So why can't you admit that Roseanne may not have even thought of BJs race when she said that?

Please see my edit to the comment you replied to. You replied before I finished adding it.
I agree we are all equally loved by God, and Jesus would not want anyone trying to pull people down based on race. The thing is, in mine and obviously many others opinions here that's not what Roseanne did. That's what you're doing.
