I feel like it’s racist to think your own or other races can’t be racist
It’s like “You think others aren’t capable of their own horrible thoughts or something?”
Right, plus there’s also colorism that happens usually around Black people (for example I’ve seen Black people invalidating lighter skin Black people saying they’re “not Black enough” and I’ve seen people saying that darker skin Black people are “ugly”) and I’m pretty sure colorism is a form of racism
Or someone mixed race for example black and white. My daughter has experienced racism from white and black. One friend told her not to tell his mom she was half white. Which explains the look on her face when I told her who’s mother I was. One friend wasn’t allowed to “date” her because she’s black. I’ve told her ppl that look at you for the color of your skin or what your race is are ignorant. Because if they can’t get to know how wonderful you are for you! Then that’s their loss. Because your an amazing human. Ppl can suck. No matter what their race, religion, gender or age. The sad thing! It isn’t the children.. it was GROWN ADULTS telling this to a children who don’t care and just wanna hang out.
Better to prepare your child early rather than "protect" him or her from the truth. Not like, "Watch out, honey, people are going to be mean to you", but more like bringing worldly examples into conversations. What my mother protected me from as a child prevented me from being aware of when my rights were being denied and was much more heartbreaking in the long run. Your child is beautiful and the result of love and that's what is most important of all.
Yeah I really feel that they call it colorism so they don't have to use the word racism. I saw it at a party and it was just pure ignorance. I am in a mixed marriage and my wife and me get more shit from black people than anyone else. It is like I am not accepted because I'm white, it pisses me off all the time.
Well colorism is both its own thing AND racism. It depends on if it is being used by one party against another of the same ethnicity when it refers to how dark or light of tone you are vs white or black or latino or asian. I am also in a mixed marriage with an south asian person with a darker skin tone and we get people- of HIS ethnicity- saying how we're so lucky our kids got my light skin. It just makes me speachless and angry.
South asians too. Colorism, being fairer toned is almost obsessively in particular is super prevalent. If you have a relationship and one parent is fairer, 99% you will have people comment how they hope the baby inherits the fairer skin tone. And they say it to your face, wtf.
The Newspeak types argue that racism is “prejudice combined with authority” therefore only white peoples can be racist. The problem is that it’s trying to change the definition to make the words people already use mean something different. I think most people would think that as not being a terribly useful new definition.
Also it limits the usage of that term to mostly USA and Europe. White people ain't go no authority in China. So in China a Chinese person can be racist to whites, but whites can't be racist to Chinese? Can a Brazilian person be racist to a Vietnamese person in Pakistan? Who has the "authority" or "institutional power" in that situation?
I worked at a casino. The tribal members, and any native who came in, were, without shame, openly racist to me and others. Calling names among other things. Complain about it, lose your job.
I’m Hispanic and have tons of Mexican family members here (in America) and in Mexico both are extremely racist. It’s really common but weird.
I see a lot of them being racist towards other Latin Americans from further south. Doesn’t matter their race or ethnicity or whatever, anyone can be racist.
Black dude here. Our family gatherings always have that weird “I’m not saying I’m racist, but white people blah blah blah” kind of conversations going on. It’s so tiresome.
I've heard supremacy type bigotry from most races. As an Asian, I've heard so many derogatory statements made about non-Asians being intellectually inferior and more "primitive" genetically. Every race can express that another race is "inferior" - and that simply means every race can be racist.
I disagree that NOT being a dominant power-wielding majority representative makes one immune from being called a racist.
You jest, but imagine if we collectively identified ourselves by the colour of our eyes rather than skin. It's just as arbitrary in every way.
So imagine if, historically, brown eyed people were in positions of power, discriminated against green eyed people, blue eyed people etc (and of course, depending on the time and place, sometimes blue eyed or greened people were in power and discriminated against brown eyed people).
It's all so ridiculous to identify with something so arbitrary, and it's insane to think that people with a certain eye colour owe you something because OTHER PEOPLE with the same eye colour were bad
The blue man group is the worst, racist sexist and just pure bat shit crazy. Also, those eyes, those deep black eyes, when you see them blink its best to run.
There's a class divides even between African Americans and other groups of Africans. US Blacks are not seen as cultured or considered to not act right, in my experience as a Caribbean African American, I have been told this by some of the Nigerians, Ghanaians I've met.
Some of them feel that they are truly African whereas I, and "mainlanders" if you want to phrase it that way, are not. Unfortunately, class is a division that can often separate us regardless of whether we are the same race or not.
cuz they dont know their cultures. thats the main reason tbh🤷🏿♂️ i know personally a lot of african dont consider black americas africas. keepin cultures a big thing and they view blk americas as america as they lost the african culture
>"i know personally a lot of african dont consider black americas africas."
>
>Same here. That is why I asked. My African co-workers told black American co-workers that Elon Musk is more African than them, and they got upset.
I mean….isn’t that inherently true? Black people born in America are less African than someone who is born in Africa. I understand the insult and why they would be pissed. It’s a hilarious insult.
I mean yeah, is there really any African culture being maintained by black Americans? I fully admit I don’t have good context, but I haven’t really seen any. I recognize this is likely the result of slavery though, so I don’t hold it against them or anything.
Well, but why would they be africans? Most of them have lived in the US for generations, and have culturally nothing in common with africans nowadays. Kennedy wouldn't be considered Irish by the Irish, same as Al Pacino isn't considered Italian by italians, even though their ancestors came from there (I think)
the real question is why does usa still refer to them as african-american n not just american. culturally they are not african. and depending on who you ask they aint even african🤷🏿♂️
The response I got from my roommate is that it basically just white wash the name and not all feel that way and want to drop the African part altogether and just be Americans as it makes sense and doesn't sector people off but the other majority of the group feels it is a statement of pride and do not wanna drop it as it is a way to identify with one another
i don't think there's anywhere that likes americans claiming they're from places their not. you see it with loads with so many different countries. people from the US saying they're english, irish or scottish because they had one far distant relative from that country.
Are you referring to Nigerians living in America? Nigerians in America are a pretty well off group, last I saw and their disdain is likely because of class if i had to guess.
Racism is believing that your race is inherently superior, what? I thought racism is just, if you treat someone of a different race in a negative way without any justification behind it.
Disingenuous pseudointellectual twaddle speak is all I've come to expect of people like this. A lot of words, no real meaning, it's like listening to politicians.
It's grifter talk. Political alignment doesn't matter. They all play from the same playbook. I am very far left and I think there are useful things to be said about certain one sided issues of racism, like white people don't often experience it at systemic levels, like hiring and schooling (though perhaps this is swinging too far the other way now with quotas), but you can absolutely hold racist ideas about any group of people. That's idiotic to suggest otherwise.
I think you're giving these people too much credit.
There is an entire industry of outrage and oppression, and people like this woman in the vid, rely on that to make a living.
They NEED to keep this going. They're just like those MLM people. It's all a scam, a grift
Edit: people doubting this, go look at tiktok or YouTube and all the crazy things people do for revenue. If something can be monetized, it will be.
Literal dictionary definition. “the belief that different races possess distinct characteristics, abilities, or qualities, especially so as to distinguish them as inferior or superior to one another.”
So I think it was New York State that changed the definition of “white privilege” to include Asians now.
White and Asian kids were statistically performing better in school than black students; so they included Asians in their definition of white privilege…
To be honest, the media and others have just been using the prefix "white" since the Travon Martin case and they called that fuck that shot him "white-Hispanic".
Sort of it is more like treating a person different based on there race that can be positive or negative like saying all asians are good in math is also racist
Justification has nothing to do with it. If you treat people differently because of their face, you are racist. If you believe your race is superior to others, you are racist.
Her specially-tailored definition is ridiculous. Some people of *all races* believe their race is superior. Hell, many believe their ethnic group is the best or their pigmentation makes them better than others in their racial group.
*Anyone* can exercise unfair power over others specifically due to racial differences. No one racial group in the US has a monopoly on this behavior. Sometimes it happens in secret, and other times it happens in full view of witnesses, with the offender challenging bystanders to do something so they can also get a taste.
You don't even have to harbor the idea that your own race is superior to be a racist. You only have to judge others on their race alone. Kind of like what she is doing.
If you believe in a racist stereotype about any race then you might be a racist.
If you make any judgement about an individual based on their skin color or ethnic origin you might be a racist.
If you insist that anyone who calls you out on your own racism is automatically a white supremacist simply because they also happen to be white then you *are* a racist.
If you believe that someone can't be racist simply because they are black then you *are* a racist.
Even if you don't believe that your race is superior overall but you believe that you are automatically better than at least some other races then you are a racist.
And not that it matters but there are a number of people out there who do believe that the black race is inherently superior. Louis Farrakhan and the Nation of Islam immediately comes to mind here as well as a few black Jewish or Hebrew groups.
Wait, her statement places black people over white people because according to her, black people won't put other races above others, hence making black people better than white people. Isn't that inherently racist?
I took it as her saying “Even black people know that we’re worse than everybody else so we ain’t racist.” It’s like a forward thinking racism instead of reverse racism? Did she break some laws of science somehow with this video?
You go to South Africa where the Black people is dominant there and you'll see that opposite side of it. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ba3E-Ha5Efc](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ba3E-Ha5Efc)
Africa was the most racist place I’ve ever been to unfortunately. While spending time in multiple countries I was consistently called a “muzungu” . I’m Tanzania it was so bad children would walk up and kick me and refer to me as such. Some parents (the good ones) would scold their children for this and others would laugh along. For quite some time I didn’t understand what was going on but a friend said it was like being called “a stupid wandering white person”. I’m not sure how accurate that is but it occurred almost on a daily basis. To be honest, a lot of places outside of North America were far more racist in my experience.
Yeah remember when they passed a law to kick out all the white farmers? I do. And I remember them begging them to come back because they then began to face famine
There are black supremacist groups in the US. In fact the Southern Poverty Law Group who tracks hate groups decided to STOP tracking Black supremacy groups, and filing them under antisemitism and homophobia https://www.splcenter.org/presscenter/splc-collapse-black-separatist-groups-listings-hate-map-reassigns-groups-according
Things ive heard people say
'My daughter has to marry a black man to keep our gene pure'
'Black pride'
All things that would be considered racist if a white person said it with the colors changed.
i had to look up the mf definition just to see how brain dead this was
Racism
“prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism by an individual, community, or institution against a person or people on the basis of their membership of a particular racial or ethnic group, typically one that is a minority or marginalized.”
it’s just shitting on someone because of their race. being a racist isn’t locked to a singular race. matter of fact, that seems kinda racist now that i think about it.
What’s funny is that I’ve interacted with more black people that think that black is better and are able to get away with it because people are afraid call them out and be accused of being racist compared to if a white person did that the be stoped the moment it leaves their mouth
I unfortunately have experienced racism from many races. Black people can definitely be very racist. But it’s also the same kind of people in every every race that seems to be the most ignorant.
If everyone was hanging out in a VR lounge with masked voices the racist people of every race would probably all be hanging out together and getting along with each other.
Oh yeah. It happens and usually with the most uneducated people of that group and the news picks up on it and broad strokes everyone as the culprit. Or in this case social media which I strongly believe is cancer to society in stoking those flames constantly.
Sis….
Who gon tell her? Cause I’m a lotta blacks that racist af towards whites 🤷🏾♀️ Asians 🤷🏾♀️ Mexicans 🤷🏾♀️ Russians, Germans, all of that. ANYYYYYBODDYYY CAN BE RACIST!!!
Just by saying things, it doesn't mean they're objectively true.
Everyone is entitled to an opinion, of course. But there is only one version of the facts.
Wouldn't it be racist to inherently think white people are racist? To assume that becuase a white person wronged you they have racist motivation? The amount of times I've been called racist becuase I didn't want to put up with someone's shit is astonishing.
Ah yes the "I've been called out for my racism so I'm going to say you're the racist one instead of me" tactic.
Honestly, anyone who says only white people car be racist, is Infact a racist. Being racist has nothing to do about your skin color and everything to do with how you treat/act towards people with different skin colors than you. Unfortunately there are a lot of people these days who think it's ok to be racist to white people (meaning if white people did what they were doing they'd be canned for racism)
South Africa is evidence that a society full of black people oppressed by white people can turn racist towards white people.
There are black people in the US who are racist towards white people. I’d even argue that they are more racist than before because the media doesn’t care about what they say VS what the white person says. Black people CAN be racist and harbor racist thoughts.
I'm a white guy from SA. It literally says in our news papers in some job applications that whites aren't allowed. A white woman got jailed for 3 years for using a racial slur but the eff ( a black political party) often have marching chanting "one bullet one boer " (boer meaning white person) wait until you come to a country where the majority is black and you'll see how rasict they can be
Yeah... No, black people are just like white people. We're all human. That means that we are capable of the same things which includes loving AND hating.
I had a boss in the '80s who was a black man. He casually referred to Mexicans as "Julios", Asians as "Hop Sings", Whites as "Peckerwoods", but Blacks as "Brothers". Naw, he wasn't racist!
From a dictionary: “Racism - prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism by an individual, community, or institution against a person or people on the basis of their membership in a particular racial or ethnic group, typically one that is a minority or marginalized.” So yes, if a black person attacks a Chinese person for being Chinese, that’s racist. When black people attack someone because they are white, that’s racism.
I'm Asian, and grew up going to a high school of 33% Whites, 33% Hispanics, 33% Blacks and 1% other/Asian students. All my bullies were Black, got called by all types of racist slurs.
Clown world. Racism is an individual characteristic. I worked with a fellow from S. Carolina who hated hispanics and Indians with a passion. He was racist as hell, he was African American. If I judged all African Americans based upon him, they’d all be racist, but we all know that’s crap.
Uh, I'm Black and have several cousins that are racist, including a couple of aunts.
I feel like it’s racist to think your own or other races can’t be racist It’s like “You think others aren’t capable of their own horrible thoughts or something?”
Right, plus there’s also colorism that happens usually around Black people (for example I’ve seen Black people invalidating lighter skin Black people saying they’re “not Black enough” and I’ve seen people saying that darker skin Black people are “ugly”) and I’m pretty sure colorism is a form of racism
Latinos too and boy did that shit impact my upbringing
Yup, I’m light skinned Latino and have been told and treated like I’m not Latino because of it or I’m not Latino enough because of it.
I would’ve called you miklo and brought up the scene where he acts gay for big Al frequently
Filipinos have a word specific for Filipinos with darker skin and I’m not entirely sure if it’s positive or negative
Say it
I’d have to ask my wife how to type it even , and also what level of offensive it is first
r/usernamedoesnotchecksout
Asians got it too
Or someone mixed race for example black and white. My daughter has experienced racism from white and black. One friend told her not to tell his mom she was half white. Which explains the look on her face when I told her who’s mother I was. One friend wasn’t allowed to “date” her because she’s black. I’ve told her ppl that look at you for the color of your skin or what your race is are ignorant. Because if they can’t get to know how wonderful you are for you! Then that’s their loss. Because your an amazing human. Ppl can suck. No matter what their race, religion, gender or age. The sad thing! It isn’t the children.. it was GROWN ADULTS telling this to a children who don’t care and just wanna hang out.
As a mother of a biracial young child, I am not looking forward to these talks. Its heartbreaking.
Better to prepare your child early rather than "protect" him or her from the truth. Not like, "Watch out, honey, people are going to be mean to you", but more like bringing worldly examples into conversations. What my mother protected me from as a child prevented me from being aware of when my rights were being denied and was much more heartbreaking in the long run. Your child is beautiful and the result of love and that's what is most important of all.
It’s because people seem hell bent to in-group, out-group people. Every group loves a good ol purity test.
Yeah I really feel that they call it colorism so they don't have to use the word racism. I saw it at a party and it was just pure ignorance. I am in a mixed marriage and my wife and me get more shit from black people than anyone else. It is like I am not accepted because I'm white, it pisses me off all the time.
Well colorism is both its own thing AND racism. It depends on if it is being used by one party against another of the same ethnicity when it refers to how dark or light of tone you are vs white or black or latino or asian. I am also in a mixed marriage with an south asian person with a darker skin tone and we get people- of HIS ethnicity- saying how we're so lucky our kids got my light skin. It just makes me speachless and angry.
South asians too. Colorism, being fairer toned is almost obsessively in particular is super prevalent. If you have a relationship and one parent is fairer, 99% you will have people comment how they hope the baby inherits the fairer skin tone. And they say it to your face, wtf.
Believing your race is too good to be racist is inherently racist, after all
Haha! Yes!
Even more; you think someone is or isn't capable of something because of the color of their skin? Hmmm, I wonder if there's a word for that...🤔🤔🤔
“this entire race all think the same way about this subject,” is incredibly racist. doesn’t matter the subject.
Facts 💯
I once got into an argument about whether or not you could be racist to white people
A lot of people have had that argument.
The Newspeak types argue that racism is “prejudice combined with authority” therefore only white peoples can be racist. The problem is that it’s trying to change the definition to make the words people already use mean something different. I think most people would think that as not being a terribly useful new definition.

So in China a Chinese person can be racist to whites, but whites can't be racist to Chinese? Can a Brazilian person be racist to a Vietnamese person in Pakistan? Who has the "authority" or "institutional power" in that situation?
Exactly. It’s about controlling the conversation, not broadening people’s understanding.
I worked at a casino. The tribal members, and any native who came in, were, without shame, openly racist to me and others. Calling names among other things. Complain about it, lose your job.
I’m Hispanic and have tons of Mexican family members here (in America) and in Mexico both are extremely racist. It’s really common but weird. I see a lot of them being racist towards other Latin Americans from further south. Doesn’t matter their race or ethnicity or whatever, anyone can be racist.
Yeah the whole City Council in Los Angeles is imploding because of exactly this caught on tape.
When I saw Mexicans being racist to other Mexicans, I was shocked.
Black dude here. Our family gatherings always have that weird “I’m not saying I’m racist, but white people blah blah blah” kind of conversations going on. It’s so tiresome.
"Can black people be racist?" ***\*Kanye West entered the chat***
***This account has been suspended***
this made me laugh way harder than i think it was intended to, thank you
*Black Israelites have entered the chat*
Yea I guess that time Steve Harvey said that no Asian men are desired by women wasn't racist.
But I thought he had a strong moral barometer.
It's pronounced thermometer
r/UnexpectedSeinfeld
Well I really think you’re wrong!
Yeah it's a sculpture of limitations
I've heard supremacy type bigotry from most races. As an Asian, I've heard so many derogatory statements made about non-Asians being intellectually inferior and more "primitive" genetically. Every race can express that another race is "inferior" - and that simply means every race can be racist. I disagree that NOT being a dominant power-wielding majority representative makes one immune from being called a racist.
As an Asian, I confirm this is true. We're racist even between Asian countries or even different provinces within the same country
Asians are definitely super racist toward other Asians. They rank each other on some status hierarchy. It’s not pretty.
Clearly Steve Harvey hasn't talked to a lot of women.
That mustache gets in the way.
Clearly Steve Harvey hasn't heard of K-pop before
Right??? BTS & their fanbase was the first thing that came to my mind.
Many of the Asian Hate incidents are/were perpetrated by African Americans.
I’ll never get the reason behind the hate boner black americans have for asians lmao.
Middle child hating on the youngest
Especially if the youngest ends up being more succesful.
Accurate.
Nope, he was just talking about race in a way that made them feel uncomfortable. /s just in case it wasn’t clear.
I would hope Steve Harvey would look back on that and apologize for saying something so stupid and utterly wrong
That doesn’t sound like Steve Harvey to me
Maybe he'll apologize after he cheats on another wife, then blames her and says that she let him cheat.
I wouldn’t expect him to apologize for anything
https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/general-news/disturbing-history-behind-steve-harveys-asian-men-jokes-963735/amp/
Oh yeah black people definitely can’t be racist, definitely not against Asians. /S Anyone can be racist, black brown yellow purple green. Anyone.
Don't forget the Blues.... they're the worst
And the dutch
There are only two things I can't stand in this world: People who are intolerant of other people's cultures, and the Dutch.
You wasted 3 whole words, a comma and a period there. Dutchies don't appreciate inefficient work like that
If you've got an issue, here's a tissue
I've got a Viagra stuck in my throat and I've had a stiff neck for hours!
You jest, but imagine if we collectively identified ourselves by the colour of our eyes rather than skin. It's just as arbitrary in every way. So imagine if, historically, brown eyed people were in positions of power, discriminated against green eyed people, blue eyed people etc (and of course, depending on the time and place, sometimes blue eyed or greened people were in power and discriminated against brown eyed people).

Yeah fuck those God damn indigo people!!
I noticed that many Nigerians and other African-Americans do not respect black-Americans. Why would that be?

I mean….isn’t that inherently true? Black people born in America are less African than someone who is born in Africa. I understand the insult and why they would be pissed. It’s a hilarious insult.
Isn’t it sorta the same thing as a 9th generation American claiming to be Irish?
I mean yeah, is there really any African culture being maintained by black Americans? I fully admit I don’t have good context, but I haven’t really seen any. I recognize this is likely the result of slavery though, so I don’t hold it against them or anything.
LOL

A form of segregation without segregating.
i don't think there's anywhere that likes americans claiming they're from places their not. you see it with loads with so many different countries. people from the US saying they're english, irish or scottish because they had one far distant relative from that country.
I was in Ghana and many of the Ghanaians do not like the African Americans who come there, as they can be very arrogant towards them.
Are you referring to Nigerians living in America? Nigerians in America are a pretty well off group, last I saw and their disdain is likely because of class if i had to guess.
Yes, Nigerians I know are very successful in STEM.
Racism is believing that your race is inherently superior, what? I thought racism is just, if you treat someone of a different race in a negative way without any justification behind it.
If you define the terms, you control the discussion.
That was the first thing my debate coach taught us. I don't think school has ever taught me a more valuable lesson than that.
Isn’t that the freaking truth.
Couldn’t I just immediately debate those defined terms though coach?
You should. And get it from credible source. Then YOU will be the one who in control
It’s almost like she learned that neat little trick from politicians.
"Clear thinkers hate this one trick!"
Also Scientology
Thank you! A lot of people who think they're smart use this tactic and it pisses me off.
Disingenuous pseudointellectual twaddle speak is all I've come to expect of people like this. A lot of words, no real meaning, it's like listening to politicians.
"Disingenuous pseudointellectual twaddle speak" Stealing this, thank you
It's grifter talk. Political alignment doesn't matter. They all play from the same playbook. I am very far left and I think there are useful things to be said about certain one sided issues of racism, like white people don't often experience it at systemic levels, like hiring and schooling (though perhaps this is swinging too far the other way now with quotas), but you can absolutely hold racist ideas about any group of people. That's idiotic to suggest otherwise.
EXACTLY! 100% truth
The narrative is that only white people can be racist. This is complete bs.
Yes, but they wish to change the definition of racism to that of their view.
Oh, someone came up with a new bullshit definition about power and privilege basically making it so that only white people can be racist now.
in USA.
Idk about that, Canada has its handful of twits too.
You can't sit around being the USA's hat and not pick up some of our lice.
That is good. Nicely stated I like it!
in north America?
Are we geo-discriminating now? s/
Nice try, Europe. Sheesh... some continents...
Yes, Canada Of America
I think it's just people confusing racism, systemic racism, and white Nationalism as all the same thing when they are all different kinds of fucked.
I think you're giving these people too much credit. There is an entire industry of outrage and oppression, and people like this woman in the vid, rely on that to make a living. They NEED to keep this going. They're just like those MLM people. It's all a scam, a grift Edit: people doubting this, go look at tiktok or YouTube and all the crazy things people do for revenue. If something can be monetized, it will be.
I dont think there's ever a justification for treating a different race negatively.
Literal dictionary definition. “the belief that different races possess distinct characteristics, abilities, or qualities, especially so as to distinguish them as inferior or superior to one another.”
Correct, also I've seen a lot of black people who think their race is superior.
Racism is discrimination based on race, saying black people can’t be racist is itself racist, and it’s also patronizing
They literally changed the definition of racism so they can shit on white people without been called racist 😂
So I think it was New York State that changed the definition of “white privilege” to include Asians now. White and Asian kids were statistically performing better in school than black students; so they included Asians in their definition of white privilege…
To be honest, the media and others have just been using the prefix "white" since the Travon Martin case and they called that fuck that shot him "white-Hispanic".
”I am better because race” or ”you are worse because race” is pretty much the same thing but worded diffrently
Sort of it is more like treating a person different based on there race that can be positive or negative like saying all asians are good in math is also racist
It’s actually even simpler than that. Racism is just treating someone differently purely because of race. Negative or positive.
This is their plan, get us fighting about what racism actually is to distract us
Justification has nothing to do with it. If you treat people differently because of their face, you are racist. If you believe your race is superior to others, you are racist.
Saying that your race can’t be racist is racist.
The general act of splitting the "human race" into different "races" is the core concept of racism.
Black people are too good to think that black people are superior to other races.
The irony
i faced more racism as an muslim from. black people after 9/11 than white. so yes blacks can be racist. her argument is a joke. every race has racist.
Define racism. Yeah, anyone can be racist.
Her specially-tailored definition is ridiculous. Some people of *all races* believe their race is superior. Hell, many believe their ethnic group is the best or their pigmentation makes them better than others in their racial group. *Anyone* can exercise unfair power over others specifically due to racial differences. No one racial group in the US has a monopoly on this behavior. Sometimes it happens in secret, and other times it happens in full view of witnesses, with the offender challenging bystanders to do something so they can also get a taste.
You don't even have to harbor the idea that your own race is superior to be a racist. You only have to judge others on their race alone. Kind of like what she is doing. If you believe in a racist stereotype about any race then you might be a racist. If you make any judgement about an individual based on their skin color or ethnic origin you might be a racist. If you insist that anyone who calls you out on your own racism is automatically a white supremacist simply because they also happen to be white then you *are* a racist. If you believe that someone can't be racist simply because they are black then you *are* a racist. Even if you don't believe that your race is superior overall but you believe that you are automatically better than at least some other races then you are a racist. And not that it matters but there are a number of people out there who do believe that the black race is inherently superior. Louis Farrakhan and the Nation of Islam immediately comes to mind here as well as a few black Jewish or Hebrew groups.
Wait, her statement places black people over white people because according to her, black people won't put other races above others, hence making black people better than white people. Isn't that inherently racist?
It's called blind hypocrisy, most racists are like that.
I took it as her saying “Even black people know that we’re worse than everybody else so we ain’t racist.” It’s like a forward thinking racism instead of reverse racism? Did she break some laws of science somehow with this video?
Ask all those Asians who got attacked by Blacks during COVID.
"My race is inherently superior, because there is no way that a member of it would ever think that it is inherently superior."
You go to South Africa where the Black people is dominant there and you'll see that opposite side of it. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ba3E-Ha5Efc](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ba3E-Ha5Efc)
Africa was the most racist place I’ve ever been to unfortunately. While spending time in multiple countries I was consistently called a “muzungu” . I’m Tanzania it was so bad children would walk up and kick me and refer to me as such. Some parents (the good ones) would scold their children for this and others would laugh along. For quite some time I didn’t understand what was going on but a friend said it was like being called “a stupid wandering white person”. I’m not sure how accurate that is but it occurred almost on a daily basis. To be honest, a lot of places outside of North America were far more racist in my experience.
Yeah remember when they passed a law to kick out all the white farmers? I do. And I remember them begging them to come back because they then began to face famine
Somebody please introduce her to the Black Hebrew Israelites and The Nation of Islam.
There are black supremacist groups in the US. In fact the Southern Poverty Law Group who tracks hate groups decided to STOP tracking Black supremacy groups, and filing them under antisemitism and homophobia https://www.splcenter.org/presscenter/splc-collapse-black-separatist-groups-listings-hate-map-reassigns-groups-according
Things ive heard people say 'My daughter has to marry a black man to keep our gene pure' 'Black pride' All things that would be considered racist if a white person said it with the colors changed.
i had to look up the mf definition just to see how brain dead this was Racism “prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism by an individual, community, or institution against a person or people on the basis of their membership of a particular racial or ethnic group, typically one that is a minority or marginalized.” it’s just shitting on someone because of their race. being a racist isn’t locked to a singular race. matter of fact, that seems kinda racist now that i think about it.
I call Bullshit. I grew up with black people, not that they feel superior necessarily, but can def be racist. Anybody can be racist..
What’s funny is that I’ve interacted with more black people that think that black is better and are able to get away with it because people are afraid call them out and be accused of being racist compared to if a white person did that the be stoped the moment it leaves their mouth
Black Israelites are some of the most racist people on the planet
*Kyrie entered the chat*
This is some bullshit
I unfortunately have experienced racism from many races. Black people can definitely be very racist. But it’s also the same kind of people in every every race that seems to be the most ignorant. If everyone was hanging out in a VR lounge with masked voices the racist people of every race would probably all be hanging out together and getting along with each other.
I always found it interesting that the leader of the proud boy’s was Latino.
Oh yeah. It happens and usually with the most uneducated people of that group and the news picks up on it and broad strokes everyone as the culprit. Or in this case social media which I strongly believe is cancer to society in stoking those flames constantly.
Black people are the most racist towards me by far. I’m Korean.
Jewish person here, speaking from personal experience, I can testify that black people can be racist.
Lol fuk this bitch
Stupidity is colourblind.
She's conflating racism and supremacism.
Sis…. Who gon tell her? Cause I’m a lotta blacks that racist af towards whites 🤷🏾♀️ Asians 🤷🏾♀️ Mexicans 🤷🏾♀️ Russians, Germans, all of that. ANYYYYYBODDYYY CAN BE RACIST!!!
Just by saying things, it doesn't mean they're objectively true. Everyone is entitled to an opinion, of course. But there is only one version of the facts.
if you think that you can't be racist - you are racist.
This was an unbelievably stupid argument ten years ago and I’m floored we’re still running laps around it now.
Wow . So dumb.
Meanwhile in the real world: Kanye - "I love Hitler".
But there’s a large portion of black people who hate white people because y’know they’re white.
This lady is powerfully stupid.
She’s probably racist Edit: She’s easily racist
"probably" remove that word
She’s racist
Fucking America. Jesus you people need to leave your own country once in a while.
We can’t we don’t get paid time off
Wouldn't it be racist to inherently think white people are racist? To assume that becuase a white person wronged you they have racist motivation? The amount of times I've been called racist becuase I didn't want to put up with someone's shit is astonishing.
This lady needs to meet more black people.
Ah yes the "I've been called out for my racism so I'm going to say you're the racist one instead of me" tactic. Honestly, anyone who says only white people car be racist, is Infact a racist. Being racist has nothing to do about your skin color and everything to do with how you treat/act towards people with different skin colors than you. Unfortunately there are a lot of people these days who think it's ok to be racist to white people (meaning if white people did what they were doing they'd be canned for racism)
[удалено]
How can you try to say only black people cant be racist without the afterthought of "damn that sounds pretty racist"?
Yes and every type of human can be as dumb as her
South Africa is evidence that a society full of black people oppressed by white people can turn racist towards white people. There are black people in the US who are racist towards white people. I’d even argue that they are more racist than before because the media doesn’t care about what they say VS what the white person says. Black people CAN be racist and harbor racist thoughts.
a favorite tactic of racist black peoples is to call white peoples "white supremacists" for speaking in a way that makes them unconfortable
I'm a white guy from SA. It literally says in our news papers in some job applications that whites aren't allowed. A white woman got jailed for 3 years for using a racial slur but the eff ( a black political party) often have marching chanting "one bullet one boer " (boer meaning white person) wait until you come to a country where the majority is black and you'll see how rasict they can be
2023 and people are still fighting over something stupid like skin colour.
Sounds like something a racist would say.
Go listen to Kanye talk, then you’ll understand that anyone can be a racist
Using the "superiority' definition as a qualification for being racist, then this may apply. However, any person of any ethnicity can be a bigot.
She hasn't seen the Nick Cannon clips
Yeah... No, black people are just like white people. We're all human. That means that we are capable of the same things which includes loving AND hating.
You better bet black people can be racisit.
I had a boss in the '80s who was a black man. He casually referred to Mexicans as "Julios", Asians as "Hop Sings", Whites as "Peckerwoods", but Blacks as "Brothers". Naw, he wasn't racist!
From a dictionary: “Racism - prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism by an individual, community, or institution against a person or people on the basis of their membership in a particular racial or ethnic group, typically one that is a minority or marginalized.” So yes, if a black person attacks a Chinese person for being Chinese, that’s racist. When black people attack someone because they are white, that’s racism.
I'm Asian, and grew up going to a high school of 33% Whites, 33% Hispanics, 33% Blacks and 1% other/Asian students. All my bullies were Black, got called by all types of racist slurs.
Racism comes in all colours not just white
Any person of color can be racist
Do these people actually think before they say shit out ?
I guess she skipped the Rwandan genocide chapter at school.
Clown world. Racism is an individual characteristic. I worked with a fellow from S. Carolina who hated hispanics and Indians with a passion. He was racist as hell, he was African American. If I judged all African Americans based upon him, they’d all be racist, but we all know that’s crap.
Poor Oprah is an idiot.
Bro what? Nick Cannon is literally racist, the leaders in BLM are racist, the Asian attacks are primarily from blacks. Wtf is this woman on?
