Aren't people in your country legally forbidden from discriminating on a racial basis?

The day landlords can legally run ads that say "we do not want black tenants" is the day I will grant that white people in your country have self-determination.

A private individual can discriminate in any manner they see fit, including on the basis of race, as long as they are keeping it private. Once you open up a business or place of public accomodation, which is different from just renting out a single spare house, then you are forbidden from discriminating on racial basis.

If you want to start a private club and not allow blacks, you still have that right. It's a private club. Once you open it to the public though, you can't.

Maybe some people don't give a shit whether people like you look down on them.

Anyway, my point still stands. Some people simply want different things than you do, and apparently this fact triggers you.

why would someone wanting something that the constitution protects against bother me? i laugh at the idea that you silly racists are just stewing over your inability to not hire or rent to black people. it upsets you that you dont live in the 1840s, and you're going to have to live the rest of your life watching society get further and further away from your wants. you're going to die upset about it all lol.

Who says those in the public spheres cannot discriminate on a racial basis? The Constitution?

You can define anything in such a way as to put it in the "public" category. Seriously, what would the difference be between a private club and a public one?

A private club is just that. Private. They don't advertise their memberships to the public, and they only invite people they want.

A public club accepts applications from the public.

It's really not a hard concept.

Why is it that you always try to hide behind "well who defines X". The answer is the legislature. These things have specific verbiage you can just look up. It's not arbitrary.

The Constitution never says that white people have to live with black people.

Anyway, do you agree that some people simply want different things than you do?

You need these things to be true.

Anyway, racists hurt your butt, haha.

And if a private club only extends membership to white people, there will be consequences. Maybe legal ones or maybe not, but the underlying message is still the same, namely that you are not to discriminate, if you are white.

Legislature can be wrong, too.

Anyway, what is your basis for saying that those in the public spheres cannot discriminate?

I never said white people are legally compelled to live with black people. I say that if they publicly choose to not live with them, there will be huge shitstorms. Also I believe that landlords cannot run ads that say, we do not accept tenants who are black, or tenants cannot say that they do not want black roommates. At least that is how things are in my country, and I am assuming that things are similar in the States.

Seriously, go out into your community and say publicly that you don't your kids to go to the same school as black kids, or that you don't want to share living or working spaces with them, and see how well you will fare.

Wtf

TIL…you can’t publicly state you’re a racist PoS & don’t want to rent to black people, or want your children to go to school with other black children without things going badly for you

The more you know

xD its fine, it is normal for all types of people to frequent these sub forums, the same issue occured in the other thread where a user kept repeating his off topic narrative. my own view is you need people like this in order to remind yourself to never be complacent in your expectations of fellow man (or woman). There is no need for me to respond further to the user as their views are so far out there that several other members will (probably gladly lol) step up to do that job.

in the event a moderator does look at this topic however, i would refer to rule 1 (highlighted in red)
