"there's one human race"
Genuine question, how is that racist? Or is it because it's a statement made from a "white privilege pov"?
I genuinely try to treat all people equal, but I realize I fail often due to unconscious biases etc.
The line has “all lives matter” energy which gives it the same problems i.e derails the conversation.
Racist in terms of context, when it's used to minimize the struggles of marginalized minorities when they are speaking up
A polite and snide way to say "Get over it will ya, we're all the same deep down" an example of bad faith rhetoric
The statement is fine after racism is abolished.
It's like George W Bush saying "I don't see race" as an obvious and transparent tactic to dismiss criticisms that he's racist
