Exactly, I hate when people say “you can’t be racist to white people” because you can.

Systemic racism includes oppression against minorities, racism on its own, which is prejudice towards someone based on race, can be done towards anyone.

a simple google search would let you know that’s not true. I think I’ll subscribe to the people who dedicate their whole lives to the matter. “systemic racism” is a redundant statement. the textbook definition of racism includes the phrase “marginalized” which white people are not.

True, but this still implies that you can be racist towards white people!!

If you read a little closer it says “typically marginalized” which implies the group does not have to always be a marginalized group.

And just to confirm we are only talking about racism in the United States, correct?

the word typically means majority of the time. so that means historically socially and academically when we use the word racism we’re talking about oppression. it’s really not hard to grasp & you’re being downvoted for a reason lol like I said bring books back.

You do realize majority does not mean all, you said it yourself so it definitely isn’t hard to grasp. I also have a question. If a white person tries to buy something from my store and I don’t serve him because he’s white, is that not racist?

Yes, obviously

I’m being downvoted because people don’t think you can be racist to white people which sounds absurd to say

Anonymous #3 4d

Yeah, apparently its not so obvious to other people 😔

read the comment as many times as you need to. effectively that’s always what racism has described. academically and socially. it’s almost as if the difference #3 is speaking of is encapsulated in the word racism. you hoes want to be victims so bad.

Has it ever occurred that there are different forms or racism, which include systemic racism which is what you are describing. It is possible to be racist on and individual level which means you can be racist to white people. Also who is "you hoes"?

Anonymous OP 4d

like I said you’re being downvoted for a reason like the educated and the well read get it and that’s all that’ll ever matter & clearly you

You don’t even have an argument now, and saying only the “educated and well read” understand racism is clearly an exaggerated opinion that falls back on nothing. Not to mention you still have not stated how you cannot be racist to a white person at an individual level which is the point I am trying to make. You keep falling back to how you cannot be racist to white people at a systematic level.

And per your previous comment where you said “you hoes”, if that’s referring to white people and me, I’m black. ✌🏾

there is no argument just facts like I said read the comment as many times as you need to. clown behavior

Yeah but it doesn’t help when your facts are false. Loud and wrong ☹️

your comment is negative because you sound like an idiot yet you’re the only one who fails to see it 😭 point out one thing I said that was false. I’ll wait

“When we use the word racism we’re talking about oppression” This statement relates to the context of the situation, and racism is not exclusive to minorities from an institution like you’ve been saying. Also it doesn’t seem like this is going anywhere and is unproductive so feel free to not respond or say whatever as a closing statement 👍

Anonymous OP 3d

yes, pointing to the fact, again, that racism describes institutional and systemic oppression. nothing false about it. once again, you’re being downvoted because you sound like a stupid bitch. toodles.

It’s okay to be wrong, but sure if that’s what you believe. Have a great evening and let’s tone back the name calling since it often means there is a lack of maturity and low emotional intelligence. Good luck on your endeavors, and toodles to you too 👋

And again your comment is negative because it’s not a personal belief it’s common sense. You already said bye three times crawl back into the hole you came from and stay
