Being racist against white people isn't a "thing" because they're the predominant group. You mean prejudice.

- nativespecies 4y agoDon't know why I'm being downvoted...Look at yourself more critically, folks. You can not be racist against a majority group. Full stop. Experiencing situational prejudice is something white people can and do encounter - but racism is systematic, its codified. It has generational impact. If a Black barista spits in your latte "because you're white" - that's prejudice. If you can't get a loan because of your skin color, that's racism. It's sad I have to point this out to a bunch of "smart" people.
