We know that almost all racism is directed against White people, and now finally a major media source has admitted it.

10,000 racist tweets are sent ever day, a major new study into racism on social networks has discovered.

Research by the think tank Demos found the biggest insult was 'white boy'.

Researchers analysed 126,975 English-language tweets from across the globe over a 9-day period in the biggest ever study of Twitter racism.

Researchers revealed the most common racial slurs used on the micro-blogging site included ‘whitey’ and ‘pikey’.

However, as many as 70% of tweets using such language were deemed to be using slurs in non-derogatory fashion.

'This sparks the debate about the extent to which Twitter truly is a platform for racism and abusive language,' the report claims.

Is there a white person who has ever felt insulted by being called a white boy?

Ha ha ha. It is hardly a slur. It is a compliment!

Technically there is no such thing as a white person. I have white t-shirts for example (perhaps some of you do too) and when I compare my skin color to it, there is NO WAY my skin color is white.
What is called white is just a variation of brown a very pale brown, closer to the pinkish red range but NOT white.

1 Corinthians 15:45 And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul.....

Adam means: red/brown

ALL people are brown or some various shade of brown. Those with very dark brown are labeled black but they are not truly black at all.

The Nazarite daughters were white. Lamentations ch 4:


7 Her Nazarites were purer than snow, they were whiter than milk, they were more ruddy in body than rubies, their polishing was of sapphire:

hummmm let's see what the verse says

Lamentations 4:7 Her Nazarites were purer than snow, they were whiter than milk, they were more ruddy in body than rubies, their polishing was of sapphire:

RUD'DY, a.
1. Of a red color; of a lively flesh color, or the color of the human skin in high health. Thus we say, reddy cheeks, ruddy lips, a reddy face or skin, a ruddy youth; and in poetic language, ruddy fruit. But the word is chiefly applied to the human skin.
