Only white people can be racist

[eqravenprince]

I work for the state of Illinois and in my training today was told "only white people can be racist" by the trainers. Thoughts?

[Tunabros]

I will say that anyone who votes yes, should comment as to their line of thinking.

A newspeak definition of racism was successfully implemented on the left, and successfully made despicable to the right.

With this change, the ability of the left and right to discuss "race" in the USA has been significantly hampered. Essentially they are no longer speaking the same language.

This was an intentional disruptive change in order to make you and your brothers and sisters hate each other more, to weaken the unity of this country, to pave the way for other nation states that have openly declared themselves enemies of the united states. Specifically russia, and china.

However, all of these disruptions and all of this political turmoil in the united states is really only serving one purpose, to make it difficult for our government to function which paves the way for "private" corporations to liberate us from the horrible bounds of what democracy we have left, and instead be recipients of the benefits of fully monarchical "businesses" who can "cut through the red tape"

Private and business are in quotes because they are publicly funded, and they don't operate like a business that manages profits and losses because they are funded by pyramid scheme economics in the stonk market + extra public funds.

You can thank yourself for paying all the money to develop all the technology and science to send humans to space, and thank yourself for paying all of the money to SpaceX to go to space again on your dollar, but in a way that allows a private corp to capture the profits of doing so.

Your hatred is being weaponized against you. Who gives a shit what the definition of racism is. Love your neighbor. Argue with them from the perspective of love. We are all constantly attacked by bamboozlers that would have us turn on each other for our mutual demise.

Yep... I escape to EQ. Raid drama is nothing compared to the bullshit I deal with in real life.

You're pretty intelligent. I like you!

lol at anyone who is actually racist

being racist is the most dumbest shit anyone can do

[Ooloo]

prejudice and racism are similar but distinct concepts

Yeah cause some nutjob activist academic just sort of arbitrarily changed the definition of racist one day.

The predictable result is that blatant racism toward white people is now socially acceptable.

For some reason "you are terrible and ireedeemably racist because of your skin color and if you have a problem with me calling you a racist it just confirms that you are suffering from fragility and must accept your inheirant privilage to atone" i mean this shit really is just a stand in for traditional religion at this point.

go read john mcwhorter's new book "Woke Racism" it's quite good and outlines all this perfectly.

[Twochain]

this didn't happen/10

also you're in the wrong fucking sub/10

It seems you agree but are mad about it. Good luck with that!

[starkind]

prejudice isnt the same as racism however they can be sometimes

u can be prejudicial or bigoted vs more than just race or sex or religion

however those three categories are the most egregious

i have a difficult time accepting some people aren't innately stupid, tho i do believe that is more a question of nurture and opportunity cost not race, sex, or religion, although religion does fall into that category of allowing some egregious violations of discipline and mental rigor sometimes, however, that is more cultural, there are for example highly disciplined catholic monks where as some street gangs in south america are also 'catholic' in cultural disposition and lack the cohesiveness and discipline of the romans.

what we have isn't democratic its kelptocratic or khakicratic aka a khakistocracy

[Gustoo]

We have democratic processes for removing and replacing people in charge of government.

These processes while still being honored at any level (despite being corrupted by pay to win politics) are still better off than being ruled by corporate overlords or outright monarchies.


To clarify - all normal humans from the beginning of time to like 2010 believed that racism was a specific prejudice. Prejudice against "race" ie color of skin, nationality, whatever. Anti semitism being a specific prejudice against jews. Racism being a specific prejudice against any non specific "racial" characteristic

Starting whenever that random struggling college professor offered a new definition of the word, that new definition was taken and used to make it impossible for left and right to talk to each other about race.

I’m gonna vote yes; just as another systematic way of white gate keeping to deny non whites to even have the opportunity to be, or be perceived as, racist.

[Gustoo]

The reason I post here defending our current government organization is that the likelihood if it falling apart and being replaced by something better without massive death and terror is very slim.

The chance of a better organization coming out of that is very slim. No one even puts forward a concept for a better organization. They talk about what they hate but they can't decide on what their actual aim or goal is for a better future.

Our best chance is to re-engage politically (you and me and everyone else) and take back our own government, and plug the holes, and get rid of the pedophile rings.

All options are grim but options that involve us hating and killing eachother (us being normal people) are worse than the options where we do not do that.

Anyways lets watch 10hr of netflix.

o like only white people are allowed to be racist and non whites don't matter enough to get to be racist. Ya that feels close enough to the truth of these really twisted concepts.

Can't make person X take a academic test because person X is too quality X to ever learn to spell or math or memorize text books that way.

Seems sad

[Gustoo]

But yeah this is supposed to be in off topic.

[Jibartik]

help how do you edit posts.

[eqravenprince]

this didn't happen

I'd like to think that. I wouldn't believe it either if it didn't actually happen to me.

Currently technically correct in America. The "ism" in racism refers to a specific condition where something is systemic.

It's also a stupid point to make.

It also didn't happen.

No, racism has always meant what it means and has never been interchangeable with bigotry or prejudice.

You probably don't use the words jealous and envious correctly, either.

I'd like to hear more if you have more regarding this line of thinking. Give me an example of how a white person can be racist. You are telling me if a non white person did the same thing in reverse that it's not racist?

[Tunabros]

anyone can be racist

whoever think's otherwise is retarded

[Twochain]

you pale, ugly, disconnected ass retards need to get off the internet. Wokeism is only real on twitter. Nobody says this shit in real life. Source: I live in NJ which is pretttyyyfuuccckkiinnn left wing. Never heard anyone say any kind of this shit in the real world. Nobody in my kids schools is telling them that white people are the bane of existence. We're in the least racist time ever. And we will always continue to trend that way.

When you think about it, it's absolutely hilarious how the internet flipped from the most ultra racist, say whatever you want because it doesn't really mean anything environment (I still probably have N bombs posted on my facebook if you went back to 2009- most likely either quoting a rap lyrics or calling one of my white friends ga) to the faux ultra woke we need to make changes into systemic racism in 140 characters or less era.

"Racism" Will always exist no matter how hard the programming is pushed. It's absolutely the human nature of liking and sub consciously preferring what you are used to. But people don't hate each other because of the color of each other skins only. It's an issue of unfamiliarity. It's easy to say that this will always exist in human nature, even 500 years from now when everyone in america has the same skin color. They'll pick something different.

BLM is a trash organization, and in my opinion a kind of dumb name, however, the main issues that they preach about in regards to a century worth of unfair treatment by police .. that's absolutely an issue. And i'm not going to lay out my long winded thoughts about this, because i've done a considerable amount of research about this, but I will say that I was connected to a former police chief in Philadelphia who served in the 70s-90s, and the stories are actually fucking insane in regards to what some cops were doing to black people. Rodney King was a crack head who deserved an ass beating for what he did that night, but it was the footage that finally gave them a foothold to make a statement about what their community was facing. You'd think it was obvious that burning down and rampaging through the streets of LA was a terrible choice, but, if something you did still has people talking about the issue 30 years later.... what else were they supposed to do with the way they felt in that moment. I bet you, at that time, AT LEAST A THIRD of the black people in those streets that night at bare minimum KNEW a fellow black person who had their lives absolutely and totally ruined or ended by a police officer who did something wrong. Whatever that be. Yes, believe it or not, there were a inexcusable amount of black people during and at tail end of the crack epidemic truly ... dindu nuffin. Which leads me to my next point.

Being a cop is one of the hardest jobs to do honorably in my opinion. There isn't enough resources available to mitigate dealing with the absolute dredges of society day in and day out without it changing you in some way. Meth heads who abuse their children, jaw dropping cases of neglect, pieces of shits who beat the fuck out of their loved ones while not being able to do anything about it because they won't press charges, junkies shooting heroin openly in the street, the list goes on. Those are the nights that stick with you forever, and on the best nights your probably just getting back problems on the side of the road doing nothing in a car.

Before you attack what I say, i'm a republic and come 2024, will have voted for Trump 3 times. Now pull your heads out of your asses and think about why you're so angry about fake shit that people say on the internet.

Slavery operated in the first civilizations (such as Sumer in Mesopotamia, which dates back as far as 3500 BC). Slavery features in the Mesopotamian Code of Hammurabi (c. 1860 BCE), which refers to it as an established institution. Slavery was widespread in the ancient world.

Racism and prejudice are part of every society and culture on our planet, as it always has been and always will be. Have you ever seen a Chinese person interact with an African-American? Or how a Chinese person treats a Taiwanese Person? or how a Chinese Person treats a Japanese person? or the way Chinese people treat literally any living organism?
If you truly believe that only "white people" can be racist then you are simply a bigoted moron, hiding your racism behind your conformist attitude.

[myrddraal]

See theres a reason a lot of people say the right is racist. Usually because they are. Intentionally saying or doing racist shit to bait people into commenting and being mad and because theyre upset, thats the joke. An example of such peak conservative comedy is Steven Crowder, whos absolutely a racist and afraid to debate anyone who isnt an unprepared, taken off guard college freshmen.
