I find out that this test, put a label on me, and others. Categorizing me with the results of:
Your data suggest little to no automatic preference between European American and African American.
I believe this to be true about myself. Although the next person can tell you (the reader) that I am the most bias of the bias, that I hate blacks, I loath those of other religions. But it's not true. Like said in some reading before I took the test, there are hidden biases in ourselves that we obviously don't know are there, hence the title hidden bias. We all have self deceptions. I am a smoker (an example used in the reading prior to the test, and something I relate to) and I think I smoke only 6 cigarettes a day... maximum. But I probably smoke more, sometimes less, who knows? Unless I keep track of every cigarette I smoke, but that's also like keeping track of every time I say the word nigger, spik, kike, faggot, pussy, cunt, bitch, asshole, gringo, whore, retard, fat-ass, skank. That is my hidden bias, although I don't see it as offending anyone or as a direct insult to anyone specifically. It's just there, I say it, the next person says it, whether they are white or black. And my mind tells me its no big deal, because its a self deception. EVERYONE HAS THEM, self deceptions that is, which ultimately are hidden biases.
I think these tests, studies, surveys, whatever you want to call them, are bullshit and should be looked upon with the significance of the next blade of grass. Although someone may say that the blade of grass I'm talking about is the next cause of a butterfly effect. It gets plucked from the rich soil it calls home and the next tsunami hits California and thousands are dead. I may think that person is a complete moron, but that's my bias, maybe not hidden or at all a self deception, but its related to the both. Because there's more than that, I know for sure. And the thing is, the statement above about that person being a moron, is a stereotype, it's me being prejudice, me being biased, and for fucks sake, this person could be white, I'm white, that means I'm prejudice agains my own race, I'm racist towards me, I'm stereotyping myself! They could be black, they could be brown, green, orange, pink, or completely colorless. No matter what, there is a prejudice, there are stereotypes, there are bias opinions. You can't take that away from anything no matter how much you change it.
Tomato:
A white man says, "tomato," accenting the 'a' and the 'o'
A black man says, "tomato," accenting the 'a' and the 'o'
An Indian man says, "tomato," accenting the 'a' and the 'o'
A Chinese man says, "tomato," accenting the 'a' and the 'o'
Its all the same word, the same accentuation's, but the white man is biased to the way he says it versus the way the Chinese man says it and the Indian man is biased to his pronunciation to the black mans pronunciation. And the Chinese man is biased to the way the Indian man says tomato with the same exact accentuation's on the same letters. But their way is wrong and his way is right, no matter who is saying it and who is listening to it. Prejudice is focused too much on whites versus blacks, yes, unfortunately it is way too common among people in America, but its also extremely common everywhere else between everyone else.
The white man may not be classified as a racist by this stupid test, but he is in fact a racist because the prefers the way he says tomato versus the Indian mans saying when it is the same fucking thing. This test proves nothing, it just proves that some people have the ability to think fast and catch onto FORCED patterns and repeat them until forced to a new pattern than others and some people just have absolutely shitty hand-eye coordination. And because they have that shitty hand-eye coordination they are classified as racist with a slight, moderate or large bias towards 'European Whites or African Americans."
As much as I have heard, from all the friends of color I have, the proper and most appreciated term is black, because not all black people are fucking African American. And this stupid test calls me a racist...
