LOL at the guy calling Scots Brits.

New User - oof.


Another Brit that doesnt know his own nations geography. Yikes.

Why are you letting Americans outsmart you? I had no idea Scots were so hip and edgy to exclude themselves now.

The ignorance is strong with this one. You clearly have no clue what you are talking about. Not only on nationalities, or where people live, but on "national geography" as well.

Please continue new user. Meanwhile I will come up with a clever tag just for you.

Ouch, defending a new user troll. The correct name for the people of Scotland is not British, just stop.

Well done.

You tried being clever with the "bearer of bad news" in which you made a statement that wasn't relevant to what was said.

Scotland is part of Great Britain but that doesn't make it correct to call Scots Brits. Demonym is a thing.

Well done, you almost had it.

"Most white people born in Great Britain, although British citizens, do not regard themselves as British and prefer to state their national identity as English, Scottish or Welsh. ... People born in Scotland are called Scottish or British and can say that they live in Scotland, Britain and/or the UK."

Funny. Google seems to disagree

But do continue to be so angry about being wrong. Its pretty funny

This coming from the guy who's actually convinced that Trump won the popular vote. :3

Your only defense is "No one cares about 3 million garbage-time fake illegal alien votes lmao". ( https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/3-poll-of-the-day/76802116?jumpto=118#118 )

Oh! The popular vote doesn't count because I want to see the other candidate locked up!

Hence I prefaced it with "the concept of." The core idea of racism is discriminating against somebody on the basis of their racial identity. Racial identity is a whole lot more than skin deep, though, incorporating culture and ethnicity as well. Skin colour and other obvious physical features are a tiny, fairly meaningless component of that, and when the basis for what you're saying is meaningless, that means what you're saying is arbitrary.

Unfortunately not and that's why the word has lost a lot of meaning.


How has that caused it to lose meaning? If you're discussing racial discrimination and somebody brings up an example where the discriminated party has the same skin colour, but is still subject to functionally identical discrimination for hailing from a different place, is it not being arbitrarily pedantic to say that doesn't belong in the discussion? That the treatment of Irish or Polish immigrants doesn't belong in the same discussion as the racism faced by Chinese immigrants during the same period?

Quite simply, why do you think it *shouldn't* be used as a blanket term for racial, cultural, and ethnic discrimination? What value do you see in having a term that applies exclusively to racial discrimination when there's no such term for those other, functionally-identical elements? If you're going to argue against the evolution of language, you have to argue why the language shouldn't evolve in a certain way, not just state that it's not the term's present denotation.

Scots are a race?


In the absence of a good term for "prejudicial discrimination on the basis of culture or ethnicity," and given that limiting the concept of racism only to race is extremely arbitrary, close enough.

Huh. I stand by my point in a general sense, but I learned a new word today. Cool.

It's not worth arguing with him. He will literally type page long responses jumping through hoops to explain how he's somehow not wrong for as long as it takes until you just give up
