Many scholars in sociology and Black Studies define racism not just as personal prejudice, but as a structural system that requires power to enforce racial bias. This framework argues that for prejudice to function as racism, it must be backed by societal power which leads to real-world consequences and material disadvantages for marginalized groups. From this perspective, a society where institutional power is held by white people, only white people can enact racism.
Anyone, regardless of race, can hold bigoted or prejudiced views, I do in fact hold prejudiced views of white people as racist.
Like I said, you're racist. It only takes one asshole to begin turning groups of people against others based on the color of their skin, and here you are doing it.
I couldn't imagine a better response to such an infantile attack lol. Thanks.
Calling someone racist because they hold prejudice views against white people is infantile--got it lol
If you're gonna bait you gotta do a better job lol
Just stating facts. Feel free to try to convince me that hating on a group of people based on the color of their skin isn't racist. I don't buy this argument that one group of people can do it to another, but that group can't do it back. Not one single bit
Quoting it because you need to read it again. If you wanna be dense this is the end of our conversation here.
Prejudice implies it's an unfair characterization when it's really not, but that might be the prejudice talking
