[@creativecredence850]

I really hate this re-definition of the word "racist". A "Racist" is someone who believes that there is a measurable difference between the different ethnicities; that there are literally separate races of humans. For example, they'd believe African-descendant people to be more predisposed towards violence or that Asian-descendant people would be harder workers and so on. If you are not a racist, then you believe that we are all ultimately the same as humans and our differences are either superficial or cultural. Power dynamics have nothing to do with it. It is about a person's world view.

You know what else pisses me off? All of the comments here that are saying "as a hispanic" or "as a black person" before stating the obvious that all races can be racist. That pisses me off because if I said "as a white person, all races can be racist" I would just be ignored or told to shut the fuck up, it also pisses me off because the people saying this believe that their opinion on this topic matters more because of their race, and it pisses me off the most that there are way too many people who agree that their opinion on this subject is more valuable. I understand that anybody saying that is essentially trying to say "I am also against this bullshit" and I appreciate that. But it demonstrates just how deep this problem goes. The choice of wording is either incredibly poor or indicative of the fact that people truly believe that white people aren't allowed to talk about racism. Basically, stop saying "as a whatever the fuck" as a qualifying statement. Your identity does not add value to your opinions or your point. You should be able to allow your arguments to stand on their own. It's either correct, or it isn't.

[@noobehnoober3178]

White people aren't allowed to talk about racism because it's not possible to be racist towards white people

Ooh that's an interesting point. Yeah, there's a hint of hypocrisy when taking a statement such as "all races can be racist" more seriously when it's coming from a minority/oppressed group as if it's more "valid" when the exact same point can also be expressed by a person belonging from a dominant group. My personal guess is maybe it's because the internet takes on a more "American perspective" where some groups are universally perceived as a minority, and thus more "valid". When in fact these same exact groups are dominant in other populations around the world. Yeah, that commenter may be born and raised a Black Muslim, but there's a massive difference in the personal experience of a Black Muslim living in Norway than one living in Egypt for instance.

That argument comes up because in certain fields of sociology, racism is dependent upon the dominant group in a society, where the term racism refers strictly to a certain race that is in power, being prejudiced to a race with less power. This definition someone's makes sense in sociology, as it's the study of society and groups of people interacting, so defining it based on the group in power makes sense. This definition however of course does not make sense in common use, or to describe any individuals actions.

[@FMB_Bmg]

Philosophy student here. What many anti-racism activists are trying to do is defining racism as "discrimination of a minority ethnic group by the majority ethnic group" instead of "discrimination based on ethnicity". It's important to see that if you accept their definition, then it is in fact a valid argument for example to say that black people cannot be racist towards white people. The issue really is though that this definition of racism is at best misleading or possibly even dishonest. The important point is: Even though the argument itself is actually not fallacious... if you think about it, it becomes a very insignificant statement. To illustrate that: Suppose that we define traffic collisions as "accidents that involve two blue cars crashing into each other". In this case it would be a valid argument to say that a motorcycle crashing into another motorcycle or even a red car crashing into a blue car isn't actually a traffic collision. It will now of course be a very insignificant statement to say that 100% of all traffic collisions involve blue cars, when we have already predefined them that way. We can do the same thing with racism: Let's now for example define racism as "discrimination of black people by white Canadians aged between 7 and 17". Just like before, it would be a valid argument to say that in this case only white Canadians aged between 7 and 17 can be racist. But the thing is: Should we accept this definition? No we shouldn't, because even though it is logically valid, it's misleading, since most people simply have a different definition. So what is the actual problem? It's mere word games resulting in a misunderstanding. The one group is making a valid, but misleading (and often insignificant) argument, while the other is trying to disprove the argument, but failing at it, because they do not discuss the definitions first. I personally would either reject a definition of racism that does not include the discrimination of all ethnicities... Or if someone insist on using their definition for racism: Go with it for the sake of argument, but make it very clear to the audience, what definition for racism is used within the framework of the debate and then discuss it. Otherwise you will talk about completely different things.

@@tadeuszadach5732 yes, that's pretty much what I'm saying. But I think it's important to realize that sometimes it makes sense to use definitions that are uncommon in order to express a complex thought. You just have to be clear about what you actually want to say. I just think that some activists remain intentionally vague and don't want the definitions to be clear, so that they can hide fallacies in their arguments. For example they often tend to switch definitions in the middle of the argument depending on what they currently need (equivocation fallacy). That tactic actually requires some skill, which is why I wouldn't brush it aside as stupidity. I genuinely think they are straight up lying, because they feel they can persuade more people that way.

@@thiccarmybomb2395 It's a tenuous difference. Think of it as systemic racism vs regular racism.

South African Apartheid is a good example of this: even if a white person was treated badly by black people there, the white people still held all the legislative and judicial power and so we're systemically racist against black people. The black people could still be racist but they still would have felt a judge's full wrath.

@Shadow Of Wiggin do you think it's possible that a town where the only opportunities a kid has is sports is structured well. Also there are no public schools that I know of that don't allow gender, but I understand if that is a topic you want to shelter kids from. In reality the children growing up with gender identity issues are always going to exist and making them feel invalid is un-american. Also I don't know what equity classes are, but I think you mean equality? Once again I don't see how that is a bad thing. I think children should grow up being kind and tolerant so that might stick in their adult years. So, in summary a state reallocating funds from sports programs that really don't send all that many kids to college and using that money on education isn't bad. Education is good and if more people were educated we might not fight as much.

@@jackkingsby116 The problem comes when school start teaching white kids they are bad and its their fault other races aren't doing well and they should feel bad an apologies for things that happened before they were even conceived Critical race theory is also creeping into our schools teaching kids they should judge each other based on their skin colour first

[@jackkingsby116]

@@chemicalbrucey157 that's not what critical race theory is. Critical race theory is how past use of race has had lasting effects on the world. Which is true regardless of your beliefs on race. Also it's not about shaming white people. It is all about educating everyone on the atrocities that have been committed in the name of progress.

@@chemicalbrucey157 schools aren’t teaching that white people bad and critical race theory isn’t even part of the school curriculum. Why do people always make this false claim I don’t fucking get it. Is it because there’s one presentation being taught to teachers to not be racist? Is that it? Or teaching kids hey guys don’t be racist. Is that critical race theory to you?

I wanted to hear her speak. I believe the answer to that question would be "yes", but I wanted to hear her points because systematical racism vs racism in the streets isn't the same.
