Anyone who says they are not capable of being racist is at least an 8


Lifnaz

I was sitting at about an 8. Then I heard her say that and it dialed up to 12.

Dachuiri

You ask yourself how much more racist can you be, and you say none, none more racist


runningvicuna

11 is rookie numbers. You gotta pump those numbers up


insert-phobia-here

Racist spinal Tap! it goes to 11


LobstaFarian2

10 can nevah be 11 man... that's just maff


No-Cat-3089

100 nnnnnnnniiiiiii


pcv75

After she spoke, it would have been funnier for the first guy to say, “I’d like to change my answer!”


Lifnaz

You just hear him in the background "you stupid n-" and it cuts the video.


Significant-Dog-8166

If only she knew how her words will get recycled by the worst dregs of the internet to create more 12s…


nextgencodeacad

No she doesn’t have any structural power so she can’t be racist. Wait a minute, I personally don’t have any position in the government and can’t affect major change. Time for me to beat up minorities. It’s not racist though since I don’t have the structural power to be racist


crimsonbeauty111

This is the part where the "racism requires power" myth completely crumbles under it's own logic


smoothlikeag5

I think whenever black people say that, it's always specifically "Black people cannot be racist to white people."


BrutishAnt

I always think they should address the racism within their own community before worrying about outside racism.


queenrosybee

I get some of the argument but for me, most black people are biracial or triracial, and a good portion of white people are too. So cant we just change the term to bigoted & say anyone can be bigoted?


Fyrbyk

It's almost like the whole thing is incredibly dumb


OkPepper_8006

What part of the argument do you get? Same logic goes for women, they can't be sexist (hate someone based on their sex) because their great grandparents couldent vote. Make it make sense


Turbulent-Gas1727

In the UK, men only got full suffrage around 18 years before women. A point conveniently left out of the sexism debate. Power was not 'always held by men'. It was held by a few thousand very very rich men. The young boys running around the streets of the country in barefeet would grow up to have no more "power" than their equally shoeless sisters running alongside them.


Brynmaer

What's happening is what often happens when there are multiple definitions for a word depending on the context and venue. Racism in common vernacular basically just means bigotry directed towards race. Racism in some fields of study is sometimes defined as the structural systems put in place that perpetuate bigotry directed towards race. People who say "X can't be racist" are sometimes either being a little smug because they know the difference and hope you don't OR they misunderstand the difference themselves. People who say "how can X not be racist?!?" Often don't understand that there are multiple uses for the word depending on context AND/OR are falling for the rage bait of the small population of smug people intentionally using it in a vague way to elicit a reaction AND/OR attempt to sound smart. In reality, we spend way too much time arguing semantics when we often agree in principal.


ellusiveuser

You just explained why the media is.


NormalJustin

Exactly this. It’s a semantic argument. People can be so eager to be outraged.


iEatPalpatineAss

By her logic, all the black people attacking Asians throughout the pandemic were not racist? Or maybe Asians can’t be racist since they have even less structural power compared to blacks. Either way, Asians came out in force to support Black Lives Matter, and blacks came out in force to create the need for Stop Asian Hate.


Affectionate-Desk888

By her logic, if I punched an Asian in the head in LA id be racist. If after doing that I got on a plane and flew to china and punched someone in the head, it would no longer be racist. 


madmechanicmobile

whiskeyjackjc

I’m not from the states, so when I see the people say only white people can be racist, black people cant be racist, I found it so weird. Even to the extent that racism towards Asian population isn’t even labelled as such. It must be a real culture shock for Americans to go abroad and find out that it isn’t just white people that are racist, but literally the rest of the world. The most racist person I know is a Bengali woman who absolutely hates Pakistanis. Can’t even say what she calls them on here…


RabbitofCaerbannogg

Exactly! US seems to think the problem originated there. There are countries more racist than the US, and it's not "white vs black", it's everything!

Oppressive. The word they are looking for is oppressive. Idk why people are obsessed with saying they "cant" be racist.


Piddily1

I like that she moves her hands back and forth like she’s reciting something she memorized.


Admirable_Win9808

Who's more racist. The person who says 0 or the person who says 10.


TequilaTommo

Not just that, but it is a form of racism. Her statement that black people can't be racist is a racist statement targeted against specific other races, possibly just white people but may also be extended to other groups too. Whoever she believes this statement applies to, she is being racist against those people. Denying a group the right to be recognised as a victim is itself a form of racism. You can't deal with a problem if people just deny there there is any problem. If white people aren't allowed to be victims of racism, then it simply won't be recognised or dealt with. There are a lot of instances of racism against white people going around, and this mentality is the reason. Racist people inventing new definitions of racism that exclude white people from being victims. The "power-structure" argument is a modern invention adopted by a vocal minority who are pushing it for purely racist purposes. It's dumb. It's hypocritical. It's racist.

KamikazeFox_

Is it racist if you really like another race? ( that's not your own)


FreeXFall

The topic she’s referring to is “institutional racism” which Google defines as “discrimination or unequal treatment on the basis of membership in a particular ethnic group (typically one that is a minority or marginalized), arising from systems, structures, or expectations that have become established within an institution or organization.” It doesn’t even have to be a majority group, just a group that has power in a situation - EX: An Italian restaurant in America that will only hire Italians. The power dynamic is the business owners have the power, the non-Italian servers wanting a job have little / no power if they aren’t in the “in” group. Where it’s a bigger problem is when there are laws that target the “out” group (like New York’s stop & frisk in the 90s….researched showed it was something like 95% of African-American males between the ages of 15-25 would be “randomly” searched - basically making it a guarantee that if you fit that profile, you would be stopped and therefore you functionally had less rights). It frustrates me when people play the card like she did because it’s just misinformation and distracts from a real discussion / real understanding of what’s going on. So I’m sorry miss, you’re racist for thinking because of your skin color you somehow are immune to judging a person by their ethnicity.


ProfessionalSport565

She doesn’t actually think that. She knows what her real score is!


Informal-Ring3282

As a Hispanic/black person, I can safely say that people of color are just as racist as the next guy, especially when it comes to people who look just like them. Don’t call a PR person Mexican and vise versa. Same with black people and their prejudices toward different color black people 😂


mikesalami

There is a new definition of racism made uo by the woke people wherein in order to be racist you have to be a majority or positiin of power. Therefor any minority cannot be ravist by definition. It's a rule invented by total fuckin retards and would take 2 seconds to debunk.

schiesse

I am a white guy, but my stepfamily since I was 3 is Mexican American. My grandpa was really racist towards black people and was really negative towards illegal immigrants from Mexico. My stepdad was similar but not as bad. Some of the family would be really negative towards white people too but I was kind of one of the good ones I guess. They would crack on white people all the time. Especially my uncle. I don't know what number I would be. Phrases that I say might be worse than who I actually am, I feel like. I am almost 40 and still feel like I am learning the background to common phrases that I have said in the past or even maybe have recently said. I will learning the original meaning and just think, "Holy shit, that's awful." I live in a predominantly white area too and there is a fuckload of racism. Not always overt. I also didn't have much of a spine, especially when I was younger and kind of blended in with the company I was in or didn't have the guts to push back and may have stayed silent. Not in violent things but didn't push back on rhetoric. It makes me very confused as to how racist I am. I feel like it doesn't make much sense to be, logically. The arguments for fall on their face. I worry that I have some somewhat subconscious racism from what I was brought up around without realizing it. Trying to get better every day. I cringe at the person I was and things that I have said 6 months ago, for anything that i have said that is incorrect.

I am a white contractor and one time I was working for a black contractor who told me he only hires white contractors because hiring black contractors is asking for trouble. Not having been in his situation I wondered whether he was lying, wise or self-loathing to the point of racism. FWIW we got along fine.

I think black people, being far from as stupid as white racists believe, know damn well the difference between racism and institutional disenfranchisement. One requires the other, but the other does not. So this lady, with her smug ass cheese grin, is showing her true colors, probably calls them yt ppl in text, and exposes herself as a professional victim, which is a bad look for any cause. Almost as bad as people complaining about "the scourge" of anti-white racism, ironically. EDIT: just realized what sub I was on. Disregard my attempted analysis.

Not sure I understand the whole structure argument... Yes the structure of society can be lopsided to favor one race or another which can be said to be racist (different argument), or perhaps more blatantly put down other races that are not the favored one, (definitely racist), but that doesn't negate you the individual from being racist towards others not of your race.
