The Structures of Enablers Still Intact, there’s NO Resolve to the Matter of Racism

How the use of the high school classes “carnival stand” is, a racial slur, and it’s, spinning, out of, control, and this is still due to the students’ IGNORANCE, and the school should’ve been more watchful, in educating the high school age “kids” on this too!  Off of the Front Page Sections, translated…

The Taichung First High School students using the C₃H₅Na to make fun of natives had spun out of control, the legislator brought the fact of how the native students are being cyberbullied on social network.  The matter of racism kept recurring in Taiwan more and more prevalently in recent years, and what we need to note, is how the incident from Taichung First High School suggested to the enabling culture of discrimination in Taiwan.

The American sociologist believed that “trends are signs”, the single incident does NOT exist independently from society as a whole, it’s a social problem with more severity.  So, from the incident at Taichung First High School, we can deduct, that in the recent years, the “backflips” of mocking natives in a university, the youtuber, Ghosts Kuo’s “the residents of Lanyu are the most sexually open”, to the mainstream Golden Bell T.V. Awards making fun of the native cultures, reflecting just ONE core matter: our society enables the means of racism.

The students who’d set up the carnival stand using the derogatory name referring to the natives, they don’t see anything wrong with what they’d done, the groups that bullied the natives, nobody puts a stop to, the online media making fun of the native winners of the awards, but, none of the members of the press believed it to be, wrong, that hey, maybe what we are saying, might, offend someone.  From the sociologist’s angle, the problem of racism is now, societal, and now just in the means of education, workforce, news media anymore, meaning, that in the society, there are, a ton of people, who’d lacked the pathological awareness that they are, racists, and, oftentimes, it would take something to  get out of control, for the individuals involved to realize, “hey, I seemed to have done or said something, awful!”

If we take “anti-racism” as something that’s vital to the wellbeing of all the people, then, the Department of Education should, improve the awareness of “multiculture” in the high schools and universities.  If we don’t do anything, and just allow these incidents of racism to keep recurring, then, “respect for ALL the subcultures in Taiwan” will become, nothing more, than that, overly used, motto!

And so, this showed just how, ignorant, the schools, the officials, and the students are, I mean yeah, you can make the excuse for the students for NOT knowing better (uh, they’re all, at least, SIXTEEN, and you would imagine, that they would have some, COMMON sense here!), but because, the schools didn’t put an end to this bad behavior, I mean, it was, a school carnival, that’s, hosted within, the campuses, and yet, nobody higher up (the principals, the disciplinary officials, yada, yada, yada, yada) thought to REVIEW the booths, the stands set up first, before the students, started using the racist slurs, “for fun”…
