'Racism' is a politically invented word. It encapsulates a concept that is political in origin. It is not a normal word that has evolved in order to describe a recognisable and useful phenomena. Most words are extremely old and can date back 500-800 years. These are the words that are common. Newer words are newer because they describe things that have come about recently, for example 'semiconductor' is a word of about the same sort of age as 'racism'. The difference is though, and this is the root of my suspicions, that the concept of 'racism' would, if it were a natural word, date back much further. Immigration was not something unique to the latter half of the 20th century. People have mixed with other races for hundreds of years and arguably for much longer. So why was it there was no word to describe this prior to this word coming into being? I'll ask the same question for the word 'homophobia' if you like. That was invented circa 1970. Homosexuality though, if we are to believe that it is genetic, normal and common in other species must have been around before 1970! This argument nails it, and in my opinion proves what nonesense the lies of the politically correct are. These are bogus concepts.Originally Posted by Traditionalist
