Having just read "Ethnic Poles", yet I am so surprised that they only wrote about German racism and discrimination against Poles but never wrote anything about the much worse Russian racism and discrimination against Poles. Is this an attempt by Russian apologists here to show that they're not racists and not persecuting non-Russians? ZaDoraemonzu (talk) 05:29, 9 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Poland at that time was divided by the Germans and Russians, from 1795 to 1918, Poland did not exist. The "Ethnic Poles" page I have seen has explained clearly racism against Poles by the Germans at the time. However, what makes me feel insulted is the lack of studying Russian racism against Poles here. That's why I question about this bias. Yes, German racism sucks, but Russian racism is that innocent? Don't forget the subject of "Ethnic Poles", Poles, effectively minorities in nationalistic German Empire and Russian Empire, were subject to discrimination and racism.

The section on Jews doesn't even contain the words racism. It also starts by discussing events from 500 years ago. I don't think there is consensus in the literature that historical antisemitism is the same as racism. I think that section should be split into a separate article about

They're generally grouped together, often with other forms of bigotry (see eg. [1]^[2][3]). MacMaster views racist antisemitism, a relatively late phenomenon (see scientific racism), as one incarnation of several in a long historical continuum of antisemitic prejudices.^{[1]: 86–87} François Robere (talk) 10:46, 6 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Its important to remember that "Race" is a social, not a scientific category. Its a *really important* social category, but its not a hard physical category (For example many Iranians are as white as the driven snow, but in western countries they are still often percieved as non white. Theres a well known history of Irish folks being often excluded from whiteness, and indeed Jewish folks are regularly counted as non-white by white supremacists). The category of "Jewish" is an interesting one in that it is part "race", part "religion" and part "ethnicity" , you get Jewish people who are african descended and would be considered "black" by most folks. You have Jewish people who subscribe to christianist or islam. And so on. In this context antisemetism IS a species of Racism, even if many targets of antisemetism are not infact religiously, or alternatively ethnically jewish. 27.33.154.252 (talk) 08:23, 6 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete the statement: ""We want God,"". It looks like an example of rasism and this statement is not rasist.

Delete the sentence: "The ruling Polish Law and Justice party has been described as far-right." Far-right is not the same ass "rasist". 83.25.21.55 (talk) 18:32, 26 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
