In light of the fact that we're all entirely racist and horrible human beings unwilling to hang out with a certain group and whatnot... What are some ways to rid ourselves of discrimination and prejudice? Or in other words.. how to get rid of cliques within school. We all have them.. Queen Bees. The Asian table (I KNOW IT HAPPENS. >_> Don't you DARE deny it.) etc etc. Extensive list of this stuff in the movie Mean Girls . But what if we saw each other as humans ... No more judging of looks. No more climbing up the social status ladder.... Why yes, I am aware how this sounds like social socialism.

I sit in the "I have no shared interests with my fellow classmates" table, so this doesn't apply to me.

My school has cliques but all of the big stereotypes are chill with each other.

I'll go out on a limb and say you're being entirely too judgmental about this. Anyway, that sort of thing tends to mellow with time in my experience, so I don't care a whole lot about it.

Everyone is white and weird at my school so we're kind of rid of that.

Cliques wouldn't exist if everyone was friends with each other, but some people are just drawn to certain people. I know at least 1 person from every group in school, but I hang out with my best friends.

As for "social socialism", that would be a society where the workers control businesses in democratic "town-hall" meetings. I'm sure that's not what you meant to say.

My school is more divided by race than anything. Then within the races there's like clique ish things. But everyone mixes in with a couple groups; I hang out with people from like every "clique." We don't really have like a Jock group, Queen Bees group, etc. And idk about the whole "table" stuff, not that many kids go to our caf. We just eat around the school or go out places for lunch.

Sorry to 'deny it' but my school does not have enough asians to have an asian table, therefore the asian table does not exist. Same goes for every other race but white. And I don't know. Less segregation in schools would be helpful, as well as the parents to stop shoving their opinions down their childs' throats. Also, cliques are a part of school, always have been. They are somewhat helpful - you can find people who have the same interests as you. Example - the jock clique are full of kids who like sports. Queen bees are inevitable because some people just think they're the bees knees, nobody pays a lot of attention to them though so why bother?

Don't worry, that's just you being overly judgmental of others.

There are always groups within cliques. My friends and I all hangout together in a big group but we are split up into three groups within the "clique" The athletic people The supposedly good looking people who parties a lot And the rest of us including myself I still find it odd since we all hangout together and socialize but when it comes to our friends we stick to the people we know best.

Cliques are uncommon at my school. It's usually a big group of close & semi close people who divide up into small groups. Not really cliques, but the our friends that are the closest.

[/quote] Lol that's why I added "social" in front of "socialism". You are right. Socialism is economical. but I wanted to say it in terms of society. >_> English, why do you have to be so hard?
