[QUOTE="childeye 2, post: 77159806, member: 412375"] The term validation can be misconstrued if not adequately qualified. Wanting to be validated pertaining to thinking people don't care is not the same as validating that they do care. But either way validation doesn't give or take away from the import of Human lives. You asked to see the underlying false premise in the actual poll statement, and this is how I am showing it to you. It's a simple question of do you agree or disagree? The answer shows if you're for or against judging people [B][U]based on skin color.[/U][/B] The two statements viewed together are supposed to show a contradiction, so it's going to cause confusion. #2 is actually the Rasmussen statement., "It's okay to be white", with (okay) replaced with "acceptable" and "skinned" added to qualify "white" as referring to skin. It's not a self-canceling statement because it's intentionally meant to introduce to the mind that judging others [B][U]on the basis of skin color[/U][/B] is wrong, whether pro/con in favor of or not in favor of any skin color. If you think it's wrong to not accept someone [B][U]based on their skin color[/U][/B], You would answer "I agree". Because #1 states it's wrong to accept or not accept [B][U]based on skin color.[/U][/B] If you think it's right to accept someone [B][U]based on their skin color[/U][/B], then you would disagree. On the contrary, #1 is a statement that indicates judging people [B][U]based on skin color is wrong[/U][/B], whether it's accepting or rejecting. To agree is to be for eliminating judging people [B][U]based on skin color[/U][/B]. Like I said the hypothetical is meant to show a contradiction between the two statements depending on if you read #2 as not being okay to be white if you disagree with #2. Food for thought: If taken out of the context of this poll, what does racist towards white people even mean? Does it mean a prejudice in favor of white people? Or does it mean a prejudice against white people? The Rasmussen poll fails to do what you think it does. The Rasmussen statement doesn't account for the fact that there are many who believe it's wrong to accept people [B][U]based on the color of their skin[/U][/B], and therefore people can disagree with it, yet they are not racist against white people. So, the Rasmussen poll statement actually becomes an inflammatory racist statement in and of itself if and when it infers that anyone who doesn't agree with it, is racist against white people. Racism is a theory. White is not even technically a race nor is black. For example, there are jews that are black and there are Jews that are white yet both are of the same race. Likewise, there are white people that come from different races. There are albinos and shades of color all in the same race and ethnicity of a people. The human race includes all colors and types and we're all Human. [/QUOTE]
