Wondering if I'm racist or not..

If you have to ask the question, then no. You shot him due to being annoying, not because he was black. If that were the case, I don't think you'd have ever let him join to begin with.

I'm not sure I understand what you're saying here. You're annoyed by a person in the game that just so happens to have a black character. Even if the person playing the character were black, i'm still not sure I understand how this would be in any way racist. People who are annoying as fuck come in all colors and genders. I would have shot him sooner.

Most people are racist in some form or other, many of whom would claim they are not. Doesn't really mean much.

hahaha out of control.

Merriam Webster

 

Racism: a belief that race is the primary determinant of human traits and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race.

 

 

So unless you believe you are inherently superior to others because of the color of your skin then no you are not racist.

Not just that your own race is superior, but if you believe one race is better than another in any way, shape or form, then you are racist.

Hmm  :huh:

[Space Milk 195]

Everyone is racist, whether you like it or not.

The question is, are you conciously racist?

If you made ANY of these decisions relating to him that actively/conciously/knowingly had skin color involved in the process, you are a racist in concious terms. There is no real way for us to tell for sure.

TL;DR: I shot the only black guy from our group in the back because he was talking.

This made me LOL really hard for some reason

[hombrecz 832]

I am a white guy and I play with a black character regularly...because a dark face won't show as easily in the grass as a white face...just being practical.

 

That's my reason to be cautious around black characters in DayZ. There is a high change that they are heavily into PvP and want to be as much "camo'ed" as possible.

 

But ofc anybody can be a threat, so it always comes down to if they've got guns or numbers.

[DemonGroover 8836]

As has been said ask yourself - Did you kill the guy just because he was black? Or did you kill him because he was a dick?  Being black doesn't give you immunity from being a douchebag.

 

Just look at Kanye West.
