> the argument that racism is "prejudice plus power.
Is it difficult for you to understand that two people might mean different things by the same word? One might say "racism is discrimination based on race", and the other might say ".... But it's only relevant coming from those with actual power". The concept for two people talking past each other should be pretty intuitive to any adult, but when it comes to this specific topic it's like people dont understand it (or pretend not to)
- huhkerrf 2y agoThat's the whole point. You can't say "OF COURSE" it means X, and then say, well, no, obviously it means different things to different people. The point here is that, it seems as if this group is only allowing a specific view of what this concept means that is wholly unnecessary. And this is the second time that you have implied that I'm either being racist or commenting in bad faith. It's not appreciated.
