The "Racist"

Postby kimon07 » Tue Jul 30, 2013 6:55 pm

If this is what to be a racist means, then I AM A RACIST TOO.

Paul Weston: And I Am a Racist

Hello. My name is Paul Weston (alias Kimon) and I am a racist. I know I’m a racist because I’m told I’m a racist by a great deal of people. The hard Left (Tsipras) think I’m a racist, the Labor Party (PASOK) thinks I’m a racist, Conservatives (ND) think I’m a racist, Liberal Democrats think I’m a racist, the BBC thinks I’m a racist. So I must therefore be a racist.

Why am I a racist? It’s very simple: I wish to preserve the culture of my country, I wish to preserve the people of my country, and in doing so that makes me a designated racist in today’s society.

Now this is something that’s been moved by the Left – the goalposts have been moved by the Left a considerable distance on this. In order to be termed a racist thirty or forty years ago, you had to actively dislike foreign people. I don’t dislike foreign people. What I do like, what I love, is my country, my culture and my people, and I see them under a terrible threat at the moment.

Britain (Greece) is a very small country that’s opened its doors to the mass immigrants of the Third World, and we are simple being overwhelmed. Our schools can’t cope, our hospitals can’t cope, very little can cope any more. Our welfare system is on the verge of buckling as well. So if I want to defend what I grew up in, what I was born into – my country, my British (Greek) culture, my heritage and my history – I am apparently, according to absolutely everybody today, a racist.

But I don’t think that’s the case. Not the case that I’m not actually a racist – I’m going to admit that full out, right now, because clearly I am. I’ve been told by so many people I am, it simply must be true. I’m probably also an Islamophobe.........

now that you accept what you are you can be helped. the reason why you are is not important. there are plenty of people who are trying to protect their culture without being racist.


you are deluding yourself if you actually believe all you are doing is protecting your culture. hitler had the same ideas. your are racist because you do not accept the right of the tcs to exist in cyprus as they wish even if it means two states. that is why you are a racist.

your time in cyprus was 50s 60s and 70s. it is over and you have lost, get used tp it.

Wishing to preserve the culture of your country is not racism. Without further clarity on your views, you can't really confirm whether or not you are racist. People like to say things like 'I'm not racist, I just wish to do X' which sounds fine on paper, but then they go further into that by proposing things that are actually racist, and have nothing to do with the statement they originally made.

Racism isn't just actively disliking foreign people. If people think that's what racism is then they need to come into the 20th Century. Racism is the prejudice or discrimination directed against someone of a different race or ethnic group.

Preserving your culture can be done by many different ways. However what your post seems to infer (maybe I have taken this the wrong way) is that in your/his opinion 'preserving your culture' equals not letting foreign people in. It's a touchy subject, people immigrating to your country there is nothing wrong with. Equally, your people come to the UK. Should the UK shut its doors to your people? People are free to live where they like. If you wish to discriminate against them, then yes you are racist in the full sense of the word. You should be honoured that people want to live in your beautiful corner of the world.

The bit at the end about being an Islamophobe is ridiculous exaggeration that isn't needed. I'm not sure if it's your own words or part of the passage you are quoting by somebody else but people know if they are an Islamophobe or not and it's a completely different kettle of fish completely.

Read the text. Watch the video. What do you mean my own words? I have not added a single word to what the man said. Watch the bloody video.

I've read the text. Apologies if I thought it was you, it's just you opened with 'Hello. My name is Paul Weston (alias Kimon) and I'm a racist' and it was posted by a poster called 'kimon7' therefore it's reasonable to assume that since your opening line of the text introduces your own username, that it was your words we were discussing.

Now like I said in my post, the text doesn't make clear what 'preserving my culture' and 'preserving my people' actually mean or entail. Because on their own they are not racist, however the methods that people commonly use to follow these harmless statements, are completely racist and have nothing to do with 'preserving culture.'

OK, maybe that was a bit confusing. I just wanted to stress how much this chap expresses my views.

What methods exactly? For instance, keeping illegal immigrants out is a racist method? Saying I will not allow illegal immigrants to force my government to take down my flags and the icons of Christ or the crosses from my schools is a racist demand?

No that's not racist at all, but this is the first time you mention 'illegal immigrants.'

Your first post just says immigrants. People who want to live in your country. Like myself, I am English and I am moving to Cyprus in October because I wish to live there. That makes me an immigrant, yet people associate 'immigrant' with 'illegal immigrant' when they are not the same thing.

So your original post basically, says you don't anybody who isn't a Cypriot in your country as if you think that this preserves your people and culture. Which is racist, as letting people in does not destroy your culture or your people. People who are actually racist, who dislike foreigners usually use this as an excuse to hide their racism.

However, from your explanations, you're now making clear what you mean which isn't what was originally posted. But this is why people call you and others like this racist, because you don't make clear you're discussing illegal immigrants which is a subject for most countries. It originally comes off like you want to close the doors to anybody none Cypriot because you believe that they destroy your culture. This is racist, but it looks like this isn't what you actually mean. But people will assume that you are ignorant or racist if you don't clarify properly what you actually mean, which is actually an issue with certain illegal immigrants, and not all because some of them work hard and fair and contribute to your country, but SOME illegal immigrants that are doing things that they shouldn't be doing.

But kimon07 does not mention Cyprus. He talks about Greece.....a totally different country.

They've turned it into the Cyprus problem. :lol:

Kimon is comparing Britain to his beloved Greece.
