We can all admit that Cyprus is a racist place.
Cypriots are racists and what is more they also fall in the other category called WHITE SUPREMACY.
Slightly different from racism, I believe Cypriots fall into that category as well and probably many that aren't racist do too.

People in our forum, older and younger are all people who care other more and others less about Cyprus and its future. And I believe in a forum you can find brilliant people who - because they are interested in reading other people's thoughts and writing their own hoping for a change - are a bit more civilized, if it's the right word. Profound. Less cynical. I want to know your opinion and if you think you are racists yourselves.

I, myself do NOT think I am racist - except from the hatred Cypriot education developed in my heart for Turks. So, maybe you could call me a racist.
I admit, I hear Turkey and darken inside, I see their flag and feel 'That is the enemy', did not yet get over that. I am brainwashed indeed.
So, If asked I say I am not a racist BUT..
However, what I am for sure is a part of White Supremacy which is something I try to subside over the last few years and I am succeeding.
Despite that I may not like Indian culture the way I love Spanish culture, it doesn't mean they are less of people.
I have met some respectable Indian people here in UK - which is full of them.
One of my very good friends calls all brown people Pakistanous, just because she things everyone with that colour is on the same level and should fall in the same category for our own convenience... Because they are all Aloutoi, Mannoi, Kleftes and so on...
People that, yes they are very different from us, but very similar as well..
(You see, humans forget that we have more things in common than our differences)
Us (Cypriots) looking down on many other cultures just because they are different and we are the CIVILIZED (kai kala) ones. The CLEAN ones. Because they smell or do not bath or whatever stories and ASSUMPTIONS we grow our own fictions on how these people are as a nation. People who, in other countries that we would "bend over" to those today like UK, have management positions. All races that we bring over to do"the dirty jobs" for us so that we would pay less labour costs instead of giving jobs to other Cypriots. But no, the Cypriot would not clean windows or look after an old lady. Why do we treat them like slaves? Not like.. Why do we treat them AS Slaves?

you are not at fault. we all went through the same system on both sides. some of us have cleansed hatred from our hearts but others have not. and they never will, they will die bitter. you need to remove hatred from your heart and you will enjoy life far more than if you do not. not all cypriots are racists. but i agree we have a bigger percentage of racists in cyprus then anywhere else in the world.

True.. I am trying..
I don't hate Turks the way I used to, but I feel mean things about them and feel they are barbaric.
No matter what my mind wants to think, I know how I feel when I come across Turkish influences.
Cheers for the Nargile tho!!
In the future I wish to have the money and time to make a trip there for a while and try to meet people from Turkey. It is the only way to help me get over it I guess.

However, we should not mix politics with everything. Armies with People.

You won’t find a country or a people on this planet that are not racist because racism is human nature, so it’s pointless in pointing out “Cypriots” as racists.

Cypriots in general have very short memories...not too many years ago maybe a generation or two ago, Cypriots would do lots of the dirty work..for instance picking fruit off of lemon/orange trees or working to build roads, where I remember many women would also be part of the group. Long hot summer days of picking lemons or working to build a road. Try sitting in a covered morris car with 6 or 7 of these ladies and men after a hard days work. I personally would not treat anyone doing those types of jobs as inferior in any way, but thats me..Cypriots of today are spoiled brats, who have been given everything they need under the sun, with very little sweat off of their brow...They tend to forget that their parents or grandparents were slaving like buzzards to get them to that point..I have no respect for any of them, and actually see them as an inferior caricature with no back bone...Being comfortable is definitely not a virtue...

being racist or bigot stems from an insecurity that dwells within the racist...I know for a fact that cypriot woman can't stand eastern european women..ask yourself why?.. is it because the russian ladies are tall blond and slim ? yeap i could see some insecurities/complexes emerging within some cyp women...

Nobody chooses to be racist… it comes built into your system.

At the family level you’ll always side with your relatives, on the social scene you’ll always side with your fiends, in your neighbourhood you’ll always side with those living in your street, at the state level you’ll always side with your home town, and at the national level you’ll always side with your country and compatriots!

All the above tendencies are racist (or prejudiced if you prefer) and nobody can evade them.

And a few thousand years ago many lived in caves if they were lucky, but luckily they’ve moved on.

You probably just hate the evolved Cyprus because you’re living in the past where your memory is stuck.
