That's really interesting, I'd never heard of this before. Can you give us an example you've heard of a redefinition of racism that would exclude whites from being racist?
- TillE 13y agoBasically, people like to redefine racism to exclude everything less bad than the KKK and actual lynchings. A couple favorites from Reddit in particular: "It's just a joke." - In defense of the slew of racist jokes that appear every time a POC is mentioned or seen. "I don't hate black people, I hate black culture." - Every time a POC does something bad, or merely annoying. Mysteriously, nobody hates white culture.
- ebfe 13y ago>Mysteriously, nobody hates white culture Man, that's been the exact opposite of my experience. Obviously unscientific, but it's interesting to compare the difference between https://twitter.com/search?q=white%20people&f=realtime https://twitter.com/search?q=white%20people&f=realtime and https://twitter.com/search?q=black%20people&f=realtime https://twitter.com/search?q=black%20people&f=realtime .
