When did you stop being racist? that is, if you ever did
For me was when I started getting out of depression, couldn't make or listen to music while being depressed, something which I loved to do. Now that I'm getting out of it and feeling better it's like all the things that I didn't enjoy anymore make feel so good now, and with that new pleasure I found that the hatred is gone. I accepted that I'm going to die and it's okay, it made me appreciate humanity as a whole. Diamonds, gold? you can find that anywhere in the universe, but humans? no, we are extremelly rare, we are so special and we just ignore that, our bodies are a masterpiece, a work of art, and we just take them for granted and one day we all will be gone. I realized that I'm extremelly lucky to be alive, and the fact that one day we will cease to exist makes being alive so much more special. Our cells, muscles, bones, organs, all working in unison to make us funcion, speak, love, etc. Consiousness is an exeptional thing, maybe unique in all of the universe. Art, in any of its forms, is the most humane thing we have. It reflects our inner dessires and personifies what it is to be a human. After thinking all of this, I realized that racism is such a stupid and trivial thing. I cant explain how I feel, it's like bliss?

I never was (probably because I am mixed race) but race didn't even enter my mind as a concept until it was explicitly mentioned in school. I had black and white friends and it didn't seem abnormal to me until we were taught about segregation and history. As I grew older I think I naturally gravitated towards people of my own race as a consequence.

i think i became more racists since coming here, before i just hated black and jews but now i hate pretty much every race.
Gavin Howard
I understand your point of view, I was once like you, And while I wont push my views on you, I can assure that once you get past racism you will be much happier. You dont have to like everyone, that's impossible. Maybe start doing some kind of art or physical activity? it doesnt matter what or which as long as you get out of your comfort zone.

I think schools and media force people to obsess over it
Chase Cooper
I lived in Japan for a year and came back 5x more racist than before. At least it cured my weeaboo phase.
Brody Nguyen
I become more racist every fucking day I have to deal with non-whites.
Jackson Sanchez

Dylan Green
>I lived in Japan for a year and came back 5x more racist than before. What did Japan come about to be?
Justin Smith
What happened? It's good to hear that you cured your weeb shit though
David Perez
Didn't read
Anyway genetic or political "racism" is legitimate and evidence BASED
Individual level racism is debatable but I for one treat people as individuals
Nathaniel Collins
It's just a personal story on how I stoped being racist, not critical to the topic of the thread.

I did an exchange program after I finished high school. I'd rather not tell the full story since it just drudges up memories of how I literally wasted a year of my life, but tl;dr: >host family basically drove me out early due to random acts of passive aggression >wasn't allowed out at night so couldn't make any friends outside of school like going to arcade tournaments at the local place >entire exchange curriculum consisted of photocopies of 20 year old textbooks that I practically had to beg for when I finished the previous set (Japanese bureaucracy is so inefficienct it made my head fucking spin) >was only in an actual classroom for maths and science subjects, all other times I was in a library or the English teacher's segregated staff room so never made any friends (yes my being a massive autist didn't help, but it was still doomed from the start due to this configuration) >got roped into helping the English club make a play, and I was essentially used as a free English teacher while the actual teachers fucked off to do paperwork and marking >couldn't ever get anywhere in a hurry because nips and asians walk so fucking slow
Same for me unironically. I was racist and depressed and couldn't make music for 2 years. My last sc track was uploaded 2 years ago. I'm not racist anymore, but still nationalist and I'm working on a track right now.
Samuel Miller
Jow Forums unironically helped made me less racist during that whole period.
Kevin Baker
I'd say it's because your luck is literal trash since I've never actually seen a person treated like that, unless you're Asian and poor

>racism I'm not racist it's just banter, my chink & poo friends banter me back so its cool, we're cool
Mason Richardson
I wouldn't say that was a wasted year. You experienced something unique.
Isaiah Stewart
I have never been racist
Then I met niggers
Hudson Parker
lol my last track in sc was posted two years ago too. Now that I think of all the music I could've composed in that time makes me feel really bad, but I'm better now and that's all that matters. It's great that you could overcome depression. do you want to share your sc? I want to listen to your music

It was pretty fucking staggering how they stacked the odds up against me. Obviously I'm not totally blameless but the guy who went the year before me also fucked off early so something must have been wrong. I booked my flight after my host sister picked a fight with me on a busy train about how I was really rude by not finishing part of dinner the night before (it was a fish that was more bones than meat and I hacked at for over 30 minutes).
It was nice once I realised the teachers at school never gave a shit about me (or even knew who I was, in some cases) so I just wagged the useless classes and either walked around the city or played on my phone in the library. Honestly my best memories of the place.
That is true and it gave me some perspective, but holy shit I'd have learned so much more Japanese by just doing 30 minutes on Anki every day, let alone 100 new cards a day.
Kevin Harris
youtu.be/PA8CwmSIddA Have this instead. I can't figure out how to mix and master for soundcloud.
John Clark
Send yours, btw. That is if you want to.
Grayson Jones
The date says 2018, but the track was made 2017, btw.
Jordan Gutierrez
soundcloud.com/juan-j-carballo/lluvia-de-verano I like this song the most. I'm really bad at mastering and mixing and all that stuff so dont really worry about that. I like expressing myself and that is all I care about, of course I try to better myself but I try not to be too hard on myself. Also is that song yours? I have a friend that's really into edm so I'll show it to him
Josiah Campbell
Mixing and mastering doesnt madder if the song itself sound good like yours. You captured a certain emotion really well. I can't describe it. >Also is that song yours? I have a friend that's really into edm so I'll show it to him Yup it's mine and thanks for sharing :)
