This kind of attitude is why shit is going downhill.

Anyone can be racist. Anyone can be sexist. It's not fucking rocket science. If you are prejudiced against someone based on their race, it's racist. End of fucking story.

If people want equality they have to start fucking acting like it, and realize that setting up a DIFFERENT set of double standards than what existed before isn't helping anything and is pissing a lot of people off.

It's the same kind of retarded 'reasoning' that makes it out that women can't be sexist or that men can't be raped. It twists the definition of the term to mean something it really doesn't, or add extra conditions on to qualify as something. In this case he's saying that a pre-condition for racism is a degree of power over another group that he claims only white people have, thus meaning that only white people can be legitimately racist.

>> No.4191122

>>4191114

I'm not sure if he's really sure what he means but the real impact of racism isn't when people say mean things to others, that's just people being fucking assholes.

The racism that effects communities and stifles growth is the kind in which a black person is not considered for a job over a white person when the black person is obviously more qualified for the position.

Saying "haha, Asians can't drive." Is a stupid and shitty thing to say.
Refusing to hire and Asian driver is racism.

A black person saying mean shit to a white person is stupid.
But then the white person is still going to be hired with a greater probability than that black person.

The sexism argument is similar. Some MRA's argue really dumb shit, claiming lots of bullshit about women trying to dominate men but then themselves lament real feminist issues.

Boys aren't allowed to like pink, because pink is a girls color. So if you like pink then you're not a man.

This is actually an issue of feminism. Pink is seen as feminine and femininity is seen as inferior to masculinity. That is why parents do not buy their sons pink clothes or toys.
Feminism is about equality for all genders and fighting feminism is basically fighting against male freedom as well.

Men should be allowed to like sewing or painting and not have their sexuality questioned because liking those things doesn't have any baring on sexuality.

So when you promote feminism, you are promoting the freedom of men in society as well.

>> No.4191153

>>4191135
Yes, you're right. In some very few instances there can be hiring equality. Unfortunately the big picture shows that total social mobility is completely biased in favor of white families within the united states. A fact that cannot be argued without dismissing all evidence to the contrary.

>>4191137
I imagine it is a made up word for when a black person commits a crime upon a white person. A statistical certainty considering both blacks and white both live in the same areas.
There is also black on black crime, white on white crime, black on white crime, white on hispanic crime, hispanic on black crime.

Proportionally, violent crime is committed by those in poverty against others in poverty. White collar crime by those with wealth against those in poverty. Racially motivated crime being a statistically tiny percentage of all crime.

wrong! this is only the case in euro-american countries where whites are the rich majority in power. the Rich majority in power doesn't necessarily mean that they are the population majority-Think about South Africa, which had to deal with apartheid rule up intil fairly recently. Whites were a population minority, but the rich people in and of power were nearly all white. Hence, they were racist oppressors. Were you to move to China and then face discrimination, it would be racism because you as a non asian (and non-chinese, they tend to make a big deal about country of origin in the orient) faced discrimination (I'm assuming that you're black, hispanic, or mixed race, because of how you phrased it)

Racism can't exist anywhere under that logic. Even minorities under dictatorships have power. Often it isn't much on a relative basis, but it exists. Racism is simply holding the opinion that races exist. usually people do not apply the term until it is intended to mean someone has an overtly racist attitude, affecting their estimations of an individual's or group of people's character or actions.

You have to realize that the people who say "it's impossible to be racist against white people" are talking about "racism" in the sociological definition of the group that has the most power in society holding other groups back. Since white people hold the power in America etc. they are the only ones who can technically be called racist.

Anyone can be prejudiced, though. "Prejudice" is the term for people hating other people.

>> No.4191233

>>4191194
there is no such thing as INSTITUTIONALIZED racism against white people WHEN THEY ARE IN POWER.
You need to take your head out of your ass and realize that you're confusing two separate things. Racism is prejudice based on race. Institutionalized racism in the situation you're talking about. Try learning from someone who actually knows what they're talking about instead of tumblr, okay, kiddo?
(please note that I'm not pretending I'm an expert on this. I've learned this from real people and not a fucking social media network which consistently spews the same ignorant shit your keyboard is expelling)

He wants more explanation for that 'logic'?

This thinking has been around far longer than tumblr, probably longer than the internet.
It's not just 'institutionalized' racism, there are plenty of people who honestly feel as though no white person can ever feel the sting of racism because you cannot be racist against a white person. It likely started in minority groups, a sort of born hatred and jealousy of white people, and it grew along side civil rights movements to become a hearty mindset, that is, until people starting actually thinking about it.

Now folks are tossing around 'reverse racism' which is just as dumb as the first statement. There is no 'reverse' racism. Racism is racism, and some are trying to get that message firmly planted so that people will stop being dumb as shit about racial issues.
But, the bitterness, jealousy, and outright hatred of white people, as well as the prevalence of white guilt, keeps the notion alive.

Tumblr, LiveJournal, the internet as a whole gave a wider voice to this kind of thinking. It allows young, impressionable minds to become impregnated with this ill-logic, and they carry it on until someone forces it out of them. With the condition of the American school system, and the ever pressing need to edit our history by censoring any foul language regarding minorities, we're further impressing upon children white guilt and the shame they must feel for even reading the word 'nigger'.
We're teaching them 'that's bad to even think of, so don't do it', punishing them for acts they've never committed, and it's breeding this poor rationality.
