I feel like your point would be more poignant without the racism but I agree?

Yeah cause reverse racism exists and talking about the history of the world and how your view point is clearly skewed by racism colonialism and white fascism is totally racism in of itself.

Reminds me of a conversation I had a decade ago about “reverse rape.” It’s just rape. Academic study of racism hasn’t made “power+prejudice” the de facto definition and, as a result, it’s ostensibly racist to say “white western take.” I say this, once again, while agreeing with you.

Just came across this post randomly, and I've gotta commend you on the dryness of your wit. Saying something so patently absurd and hypocritical as

You can't be racist against white people

while keeping a straight face. Quality comedy.

Or you're just a racist piece of shit.
