No matter what terms we use, the person is not the creation of the label, the label is reflective of the person. No matter what terms we use, the person is not the creation of the label, the label is reflective of the person...not the personality. A person isn't the label that people call him simply because they call him that label. If a person's personality is such that it's impossible for him to be defined by that label then the label is useless. A "black" is a "black" because they have darker skin, not because they are the stupid, sub-human beings that the term "nigger" implies. Labels are superficial and only define outward appearances. Anyone who would call a black Supreme Court Justice a "nigger" is only showing their own ignorance. How many times do you think Martin Luther King was called a "nigger"? Did that stop him from doing what he thought was right? Nooooo!!!! And here you are complaining about a label when you should be out there proving that people are wrong about you instead of proving that they are right. "I have sex with kids. I know it's against the law but fuck them." It wasn't against the law to be black. Although their rights were few and far between, the mere fact that they were black wasn't an illegal act. Labels don't mean shit, if YOU refuse to accept them. That is just wrong. You brought that up before. If you want to learn something, read some of the texts I pointed out before. Maybe I am wrong, but you are too. And you can't prove to me that simply being labeled a "nigger" or "child-molester" is going to change the personality. There has to be a grain of truth for the label to be effective. |
