Okay I'm pissed off and now in full rant mode. Which isn't good for you guys.
I hate citizenship. Its officially citshit instead. Its a waste of 1/2 GCSE or however much. As is RE because they only teach about Christianity. My grandparents are Subud. Does anyone know about that? NO. Does anyone really know anything about Islam or any other religion? I mean, people know nothing about the Mormons! And they were freaking christians! And lack of information makes people very judgemental. Take my citshit class. The perfect, racist, pre-judgemental, hypocrital example.
We're doing about racism in citshit. How its tolerated, is the UK racist that sort of thing. We ended up talking about migrants. Legal and illegal. And I have absolutely no problem with legal migrants. Illegal is another matter. But 90% of my citshit class are totally against all kinds of migrants (being in the country does mean most of them have shot guns and their familes have always voted Conservatie). And they have all types of stereotypes for each different "set" of people.
Most of their wit is based on Asian people. And most of it is very offensive. And they are saying this very loudly in a CITIZENSHIP CLASS. Where we are supposed to be learning TOLERANCE of different races and religions. And this brings me onto Islam. As stated my grandparents are Subud. Which is a sort of branch off of Islam (the fast and everything but don't follow dress code and whatever). Someone in my citshit class ACTUALLY said this.
'I don't like them muslims, like, with their big dresses. You know? The Ninjas? With just the eyes showing right? I find that...like, when I'm talking to someone I want to see their face right? Not just their eyes...' and it went on and on and on. People can wear what the hell they want. Turned out this girl thoughtl they all had bombs "under the dress things" and that they would blow up the street as she walked by. This is Leicester we're talking about. One of the most culturaly diverse cities in England! Ugh it makes me want to scream.
and what annoys me most is that my citshit teacher did NOTHING to surpress all racist remarks made in that lesson. SOME TOLERANCE HUH BRENDON?? Hypocritical bastard...
Ugh i'm sitll pissed off.
