Bringing up the global issue of anti-black white hegemonic racism is edgy? That’s a strange way to feel about a pervasive and damaging thing. Are you a white person? White people often hold a vested interest in maintaining the hierarchy of the white racist project, and often seek to minimize the severity of it or outright deny the existence of it despite the overwhelming evidence that white Europeans uphold racism, a thing they also invented.
Racism was invented by Gomes Eanes De Zurara of Portugal to justify the brutal actions of Prince Henry of Portugal in his book _the chronicling of the Discovery and Conquering of Guinea _ the point of it was to create sweeping justification for the subjugation of people and created a hierarchy putting white people at the top. It’s possibly the only true European invention. Race is uniquely European and a problem we all have to face.
White people cannot experience racism. They can only maintain or stand against it. The struggle of whites at the hands of a white aggressor is a struggle within whiteness that does not constitute the system of race.
It provably is not racism. Racism is a hierarchical system, or caste based system that puts phenotypically white people at the top and all others below them. White people may struggle due to the circumstances of the racist project but they do not and cannot by definition experience racism.
You’re confusing things there, buddy. You say racism but you describe white supremacy.
white supremacy, beliefs and ideas purporting natural superiority of the lighter-skinned, or “white,” human races over other racial groups. (www.britannica.com/topic/white-supremacy)
Saying white people are not able to experience racism is racism, also saying all white people inherently desire white supremacy is racism:
racism, the belief that humans may be divided into separate and exclusive biological entities called “races”; that there is a causal link between inherited physical traits and traits of personality, intellect, morality, and other cultural and behavioral features; and that some races are innately superior to others. (www.britannica.com/topic/racism)
You fundamentally do not understand racism if that’s what you think. Again. White people cannot experience racism. Your struggles within whiteness do not equate to the systemic hurdles that are present for all non-white people in the entire world. Racism cannot exist without the system that upholds the ignorant values of racists. White people DO uphold racism See: all of “white” history. The Dutch Congo, the US and USC, South Africa, etc etc etc.
Mmk, I’ve read all of this and I need you to understand: the Epstein class love that you’re attacking white people and not them. You are a great, thoughtless digital attack dog.
Experiencing institutional racism is not the same thing as experiencing individual racism. For example, you are portraying individual racism right now. You’re right that systemic racism is an ongoing problem that we need to solve. You are 100% dead wrong that white people can’t experience racism. This is braindead liberal logic.
I’d argue every race (so far they exist in the first place) could experience all kinds of racism and xenofobia.
I’ve heard of Europeans visiting current-day Japan tell of individual racism, where one family would welcome you in sharing their home from a inner need to share; while the family next door might not talk to you, from an inner fear of all things strange and foreign. This is not exclusive to Japan of course. I heard others tell stories of institutional racism in South-America and Africa where white people encounter corrupt officials (a quite common thing in broken countries) and are basically forced to pay double because of their roots. Of course this is nothing compared to the racism by white people enflicted upon the world, especially the last millenium.
I think in many ways i would agree with the thoughtless digital attack dog we’re responding to, but I do not believe it is braindead liberal logic as I don’t believe we’ve encountered a European or North-American individual. It find it more likely to be the cause of anti-western narrative, perhaps from an Asian country. But I do not care why they argue, i care what they argue. And the statement that someone cannot experience racism because of they belong to a specific race is baseless hate.
The fact that you equal me to all white people is you putting me in a box based on race. Even worse, the race you assume me to be. The only racist between us is you.

You realize the data includes the opinion of non-whites too right?
And Europeans invented racism? Lol, that vile exists everywhere, and long before there was a European civilization.
