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.

The forums are mostly read-only and are in a maintenance/testing phase, before being permanently archived. Please use this time to get the contact details of people you'd like to keep in touch with. My contact details are here.

Please do not make a mirror copy of the forums in their current state - things will still change, and some people have requested to be able to edit or delete some of their personal info.

The Gulf states racism is different to other racism

You westerners' racism is like "He's Black so he's a piece of shit.".
But racism in the gulf (KSA, UAE, Qatar, Oman, Bahrain and Kuwait) is mainly to asians. "He's asian he's our slave' - that's our racism.

Comparison

Western Racism

The blacks have been through a lot. They still are being oppressed especially in South Africa, even though it's their own country. The whites are like "He's black so he's a piece of shit."

Our Racism
The gulf states view them as slaves. The construction workers only get 600SR a month ($159.992 US Dollars). We depend on asians.

1)7/10 shops are asians.
2)People who make our roads are asians.
3)People who work in big shops (there are very few saudis) and malls are asians.
4)The construction workers are asians.
5)The person who built my house is asian.
6)The people who work in restaurants are asians.
7)People who work in hotels are asians.

RE: The Gulf states racism is different to other racism

everyone's a little bit racist, just look at Nintendo and Mario...Italian plumber created by Japs, collects coins like a jew, runs/jumps like a black, speaks English (American English that is, not that annoying British English) and now apparently, we are going to add "looks like a Mexican/Turkish dude to the list because of idiots that want ruin good internet history"

but now, please, SHUT THE FUCK UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"free speech under the constitution only guarantees the government won't stop him saying it and does not guarantee his right to say things and have no consequences at all as a result. also i completely doubt that he is motivated solely by "i'm saying it because i can" and is probably motivated by a more shitheady motive like "i think it's funny to annoy people and Rustle Le Jimmies™ and is just hiding behind the first amendment to try to deflect any consequences or make you realize that being allowed to annoy people is a superior moral right. you can still disdain someone for doing things for dumbarse wankery purposes and you have evne more right to ban and insult them for it" ~Trar's friend about Potato.

Thanks for the diploma… can I have my childhood back?

I’d love to have a battle of wits with you… but I hate to fight the unarmed.

Please be more specific in what you mean by Asian.

Call them what you want: Chinese, Japanese, Vietnamese, Korean, but they're all Oriental to me.

I hear they still get paid better than what they would be paid back at home. It's not like the Arabs went to Asia, stuck them into cages and flew them over. Most came there themselves to work(and some even try to get their fair share. I read that there was some sort of strike by workers in the UAE because of not being paid or something of that nature). Sure, there are some crappy things going on(like the nanny who got arrested for killing the kid. I personally think the family was involved and just placed the blame on her.)

I can actually spot the difference between the Japanese, Koreans and Chinese. But that's about it.
