Wrong, the loyal workers for the farmers were killed because they were loyal for the farmers. In the Finnish civil war 1918, not just factory owners were killed but also white collar salary workers like engineers and clerks were killed, because they were loyal for the owners and not for the blue collar workers. It was about the color of the collar, not of the skin.

Jokes
A black guy to a white one:
When i was born I was black, when I get frightened I'm black, when I feel cold I'm black, when I get angry I'm black, when I die I'm still black. You are white at your birth , you are yellow when you get frightened , you are red when you get angry, when it's cold you become purple to blue, when you die you become black and blue.
And you still call me coloured man....


Two very elegant black guys are going to a meeting in the U.N. building in New York. They see a white man washing the floor and humming. One f them say:
Look at this white man, what a rhythm he has.....

I find jokes like this very clever and funny. If finding humour in the differences that make us individual is racism then I'm one.

Fact is, people will find an excuse to spout the racism / discrimination card at the drop of a hat without understanding what they are getting upset about. As for me, I don't discriminate. Some of my best friends are male, white, able bodied and middle class. You won't find a group more discriminated against than that!

People are people, where ever they live. Desire to revenge and/or improve one's own life are universal feelings. So are the ways people treat those who they consider to be traitors.

Wrong. In Zimbabwe Black farm owners have mostly been untouched.

The killings there are Government support using Race based populism.

Really, hmm, all the "black" people who endured legal segregation in the U.S. will be amazed to find out they had no reason to complain as their situation was not different than any white boys.

The base of your rhetoric is absurd to the point of seeing it as nothing more than trolling for response.
