Ok, so we distinguish between "good racism" and "bad racism" then? Absurd. Sorry but I do not make that distinction: racism is bad no matter what your ancestor

Ok, so we distinguish between "good racism" and "bad racism" then? Absurd. Sorry but I do not make that distinction: racism is bad no matter what your ancestor did and it's despicable. Also, *stop* assuming that the whole world has the same historical context as the US.
- ParetoOptimal 4y ago> Ok, so we distinguish between "good racism" and "bad racism" then? How uncharitable. I never said either racism was bad, just that one has less weight behind it. > Also, stop assuming that the whole world has the same historical context as the US. This is a thread about a US based company so assuming the historical context of the US matters is fair. Also anti-black racism exists across the world.
- Octabrain 4y agoI'm sorry but I simply don't buy those "scales of racism" of yours. Racism is bad, period. > This is a thread about a US based company so assuming the historical context of the US matters is fair. I was talking in general terms given that I've encountered this US ideological racist garbage in many places at this point. > Also anti-black racism exists across the world. Not at least where I'm originally from (Africa). I cannot get my head around any of these arguments other than pure and simple indoctrination. As soon as you apply basic common sensical logical reasoning to it, you see how outrageous and ridiculous is.
