RIP School Survival Forums
August 2001 - June 2017
The School Survival Forums are permanently retired. If you need help with quitting school, unsupportive parents or anything else, there is a list of resources on the Help Page.
If you want to write about your experiences in school, you can write on our blog.
To everyone who joined these forums at some point, and got discouraged by the negativity and left after a while (or even got literally scared off): I'm sorry.
I wasn't good enough at encouraging people to be kinder, and removing people who refuse to be kind. Encouraging people is hard, and removing people creates conflict, and I hate conflict... so that's why I wasn't better at it.
I was a very, very sensitive teen. The atmosphere of this forum as it is now, if it had existed in 1996, would probably have upset me far more than it would have helped.
I can handle quite a lot of negativity and even abuse now, but that isn't the point. I want to help people. I want to help the people who need it the most, and I want to help people like the 1996 version of me.
I'm still figuring out the best way to do that, but as it is now, these forums are doing more harm than good, and I can't keep running them.
Thank you to the few people who have tried to understand my point of view so far. I really, really appreciate you guys. You are beautiful people.
Everyone else: If after everything I've said so far, you still don't understand my motivations, I think it's unlikely that you will. We're just too different. Maybe someday in the future it might make sense, but until then, there's no point in arguing about it. I don't have the time or the energy for arguing anymore. I will focus my time and energy on people who support me, and those who need help.

Discrimination laws should be ammended.
Firstly, and most importantly, they discriminate against WHITE PEOPLE. :troll:
But no, seriously:
Quote:Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (Title VII), which prohibits employment discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin.
Except, white people cannot sue for an all black business discriminating against a white person. Hell, a black guy could literally legally do this in an interview with a white person:
>> Hello, I'm here to interview for the job opening. - White guy
>> We don't higher crackers. This meeting is over. - Black guy.
>> Fuck. - White guy.
And it'd be perfectly fine, in the laws eyes. If we're going to be fair, let's be fair. I understand affirmative action, but really? The discrimination act that prohibits discrimination is discriminatory. Derp.
Quote:The Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (ADEA), which protects individuals who are 40 years of age or older.
- This one is obviously fucked. If a younger person is more capable than a 40 year old, and he/she isn't hired, then it's fucking discrimination.

Erm, no. That would be discrimination based on race, see. Which as you just said, is illegal.

Well, duh. But are you just going to whinge about it on an obsucre internet message board, or are you going to actually do something about it?
Carla Franklin has never denied that on the afternoon of the third of August 2006 she raped and killed sixteen children celebrating their friend's fifth birthday and forced their parents to share a dinner of their remains.
If a teacher you don't know tries to bust you for something, just tell them "Jsem výměnný student, nemluvím anglicky. Tak jdi do prdele ty posranej hajzle, tvoje matka je kurva!", then send me money.

Actually yes... That law does not apply to Caucasians. Affirmative action and all. We're not a "protected class" or whatever. I'm pretty sure we aren't, anyway. That's what I'm being taught in my business class. I'm looking for sources now.

I'm aware. I'm not just sitting around here. I participate in everything and anything that my circumstances permit which allows me to further the youth rights movement.

Re: Discrimination laws should be ammended.
lol
Also, Black people still have a disadvantage, which should tell us something about our affirmative action laws. Hmm, what would that be again? Oh yeah, that hey don't fucking work.

I'm a black guy and even I dislike that old piece of shit fossil Jessie Jackson and his race card.
Still he brought me some lulz when he talked of castrating obama.
Mom got all butthurt about it though.

Re: Discrimination laws should be ammended.
If you've ever been to the post office in NYC, you hate affirmative action. when shenequa is doing her nails & there's 20 fucking people in line, and they cant fire her, you know something is fucking wrong.

Because only a black woman would ever do that. Riiiiiight. I'm as big of an opponent of affirmative action as the next guy, but don't use arguments that make you look like a bigot. The problem there isn't affirmative action, it's, most likely, hard to fire members of the American Postal Workers Union.

I don't get how anybody can defend affirmative action. It is one of the most stupid policies in America.

Most black people I talk to don't agree with it. They feel as if it is saying, "Black people aren't good enough to compete with white people so we are going to give them a crutch!"
I personally don't believe in most anti-discrimination laws... if a company wants to hire only whites that should be their choice BUT I'd hope that eventually they'd go out of business because sensible people would boycott said company.

Just look at the voting population in North America. 18-40 year olds are able to vote, but for the most part don't. Thus laws that protect old people are popular with the people who vote.
Freedom is never given; it is always taken. So for the fact that you're not a slave, don't thank those in authority. Thank someone with a "bad attitude."

Same could be said about Japan.

Re: Discrimination laws should be ammended.
Well I don't know enough about Japan. I happen to have seen the ages for the 2008 election in US and 2011 election in Canada, so I could speak for North America.

That's bullshit. "Hey, lets make the race card a viable law"!

People say the problem with me is I have psychotic tendencies and care not about other human beings I don't like and or know. So?

Sometimes the same thing happens with Kate at the bank. Seriously man, bigotry and racism is allowed here, but kinda frowned on.

Affirmative action is illegal in Michigan as it violates the state constitution that prohibits racial discrimination. Not even allowed in the schools, despite their wishes. Why are they so racist?!
