Fun Online Polls: Is it racist & countries smaller than Israel.

The results to last week’s Fun Online Poll were as follows:

Is it racist if a black British woman tells a woman in a full-face burka to go back to her own country?

Yes – 40%
No – 60%

A good turnout with 126 votes. Thanks to everybody who took part.

I was with the majority on this one.

It is clear that “Jewish” is both a people/race and a religion, and there is a ninety percent overlap between “Hindus” and “Indians”, in which case it would be impossible/futile to say whether criticising members of either group simply for being members of that group would be ‘religionist’ or ‘racist’*, but Islam is not a race. It’s not even a religion if you ask me, it’s an inferiority complex/massive grudge against ‘everybody else’.

* Unless somebody could show that he dislikes all Indians equally, be they Hindu, Sikh, Christian or Muslim. That would just be racist but at least no religious prejudice involved.
