What's prejudice about suggesting a link exists between being prejudice and being dumb/mentally deficient? If there's a link, there's a link. That's not a "prejudice". That's an observation.

Whaaat? I don't even care one way or the other about "socially conservative" this or that. The point is that (as I already said) being racist is indeed a mark of mental deficiency regardless of what type of...political "spin" or whatever you try to put on it.

The fact still stands regardless, as I said above, that - independent of whatever political spin one wants to put on the dynamic - racism seems directly tied to having a lower level of thinking.

Don't be a racist twat. That's what you should do with it. Work at seeing every other human as your brother and sister, mother and father.

Because it's hypocrisy

Really? It's hypocritical to suggest that there's a link between being mentally deficient and being incapable of treating human beings equally regardless of their skin color or race? You might need to go back and recheck your "critical thinking" abilities there, Einstein, because there is exactly nothing prejudice or derogatory about calling someone mentally deficient who IS mentally deficient, nor is there anything hypocritical about calling someone racist who in point of fact actually is a racist.

Really looks like it's you who's the ignoramus here.

Racism is greatly manipulated by multinationalists.

Bigotry based conspiracies are always false and are the most common way to keep the populations divided and easier to oppress.

Well, racism most definitely is one of the most prevalent ways (if not the most prevalent way) to keep the masses divided and at odds with one another. This is most definitely correct. However, the statement that "bigotry based conspiracies are always false" seems quite a bit too general to be valid. You'd have to be more clear with regard to what you mean by that because the fact of the matter is that A) bigotry does indeed exist, B) conspiracies most definitely do exist as well, and C) sometimes (but not always) A and B most definitely do work together.

So many conspiracies are based on racism, religion and immigrants, it is natural that they are visible here it is a tool for oppression that still works.

Correct, but we are not just talking here about the fact that racism has been used for conspiratorial purposes. This is correct, and, again, I do not disagree with this. We are saying that there are various member here in this very sub that have fallen into the ignorant, racist, bigoted thinking themselves - and that is something that should be done away with and rooted out.

they only exist because they were created by the group in power in order to stay in power and could be ended, but since they are so useful they are cultivated and encouraged.

Couldn't agree more.

do you think there is a link between racism and conspiratorial views?

No. That is not to say that no racists have conspiratorial views. Of course they can. All types can have conspiratorial views. However, having conspiratorial views does tend to take a bit more “outside of the box” type thinking - and although there are most definitely some racists that have conspiratorial views (as demonstrated in this very sub, unfortunately), the more capable one is of actually thinking outside the box, the more capable one tends to also be of realizing just how negative, bad for you, and (yes) manipulated by TPTB is racism itself. Excluding the mentally imbalanced, those aware of the conspiratorial end of things on this planet also tend to be more critical thinkers than the average person - and those that are more critical thinkers tend to understand just how self-defeating racism actually is.

It is unfortunate that there are racist types in the conspiracy fields and in this subreddit still, but these are generally people that are simply not intelligent enough to break through their indoctrination regardless of what type of information they come across.

This is exactly correct. There are differences between individuals, and between groups of individuals. This is a fact, of course. However, and as you said, there is no reason why this should affect our judgement or ability to empathize, sympathize, and be a rational, critical thinker on behalf of any given situation independent of one's race.

If you're attempting to suggest that I'm trying to paint this sub as racist, then you cannot be more summarily incorrect. I'm stating that some individuals in this sub most definitely are racist, and I'm simply pointing out how incorrect and self-defeating such a perspective is. That's a far, far cry from making any attempt to paint this entire sub as racist. Wat?

Seems like you're totally missing the point here. Some people ARE in fact very much racist. Saying there's a link between low IQs and racism isn't demonizing. It's, as I've already stated, a simple observation. There's a big difference between the two things.

Anyone who has conservative views must be a racist with a low IQ.

No. Anyone who denigrates others on the basis of their race is a racist.

Seems like you're reacting in a very defensive manner to all this.

Hmmm. I wonder why that is.

It tried to tie racism and low IQ to a specific political point of view.

Independent and regardless of the political perspective one way or the other, the connection between low IQ and racism does indeed seem very much relevant.

It's pretty easy to understand the obvious tactic being applied.

Not quite.

Where is my "you're reacting in a very defensive manner" at?

It's included in your apparent failure to understand that, as I said above, racism seems to be a hallmark of a low-thinking individual regardless of what political leaning they might have.

Don't get lost in that. Understand, as a matter of fact, that it doesn't really matter whether one is a "republican" or a "democrat", as they're both two sides of the same evil coin anyway. Don't lose the forest for the trees.

Again, you're missing the forest for the trees because there IS a link between an individual who's not very smart, and an inability to understand that human beings are equal regardless of their race or skin color.
