Black people can't be racist

[SupremexKing]

This is nonsense anyone can be racist, to be racist is to have prejudice and be antagonist to people based on being a part of a certain ethnic group, race or tribe.

so a black americans feelings towards cacs isnt justified?

 

[Fill Collins]

Since when was racism "power plus prejudice". They just made up a fake definition.

I mean when cacs compare "cracker" to the hard-r, and any kind of agitation against discrimination to their hate groups, that's when there needs to be a "fake" definition

I believed that anyone, regardless of their race, has the capacity to hold prejudiced views or engage in discriminatory behaviors. Racism, at its core, is about the belief in the superiority or inferiority of one race over another, accompanied by actions that perpetuate systemic inequality and harm.

Historically, racism has disproportionately affected and marginalized African Americans and other minority groups. However, it is important to distinguish between individual acts of prejudice and the systemic power dynamics that underpin racism.

While individuals from any race can hold prejudiced views, it is crucial to recognize that racism operates within a broader context of power and privilege. Systemic racism, which is deeply ingrained in institutions and society, perpetuates disadvantages and discrimination against marginalized communities.

Acknowledging this distinction allows us to address both individual prejudice and the larger structural issues that perpetuate racial inequality. Our goal should be to foster understanding, promote equality, and work towards a society where all individuals are treated with dignity and respect, regardless of their race.

Another situation where the words we are using lack the resolution to describe the situation.

"Racist" does cover white supremacy as well as Black militants. A person who judges another by their race is a racist.

But Black militancy is not the same as white supremacy.

Our attitude is a reaction to

hundreds of years of

brutal savages terrorizing us

We'd be stupider than a family dog to NOT react to their actions this way. In fact, we do a lot of cooperating with white people no matter how woke we are. Cause you have to, to eat food in this land.

Being able to hire and fire, treat medically, and allow to buy homes just based on racist attitudes is the IMPORTANT form of institutionalized racism that needs attention.

Black people being rightfully distrustful and resentful of white people is not an issue that needs addressing OUTSIDE OF STOPPING THE INSTITUTIONALIZED RACISM.

A white person is still a white person anywhere in the world
A homeless man could call you a whole ass nikka
You could immediately put hands and feet on him
And every color under the sun would come to his defense
No questions asked
Or
You would be exterminated on sight by cops seeing the commotion
Black people have never been racist
Now you could argue bigotry or even xenophobia
But any weirdo dapping this dumb shyt
Or agree to black people can be racist
Is an whole idiot
No in betweens
And playing deaf, dumb and doofy to appear like they are elite

This part. Because a homeless cacs is inherently safer in the US than the wealthiest Black man.

And a better question is why aren't most Black people racist or bigoted against whites?

When every cac is either racist or bigoted against Black people?

 

[Ski Mask]

While you would never see me argue that racism is equal, the whole "racism = power + prejudice" never sat right with me. The logic behind this can be easily exploited by the intersectionality crew.

 

[FeverPitch2]

What kills me that that cacs are horribly offended at the notion that a POC might not care for white people.
After all of their enslaving, murder, rape, theft, brutality, disrespect, dismissiveness, superiority complex, obliviousness, centering themselves, overall oppression, and finally just being square and generally annoying, it makes their blood boil when one of us isn't overwhelmed with joy at their presence.

And to answer the OP, no Black people can't be racist.
Prejudiced? Of course.
But it's not like we're spitting in the face of all of the love and acceptance shown to us by Latinos, Asians, Indians, Middle Easterners, and Africans.
None of those groups fukks with us as a whole and have committed some of the same offenses on us as cacs have.
So if anybody's feelings are hurt because a Black person doesn't like you
Get the fukk over it, go on with your life and leave that person alone.

can be prejudice or bigoted but can't be racist

it's a fact, words have actual meanings

You can be prejudice against someone for literally anything though. Sex, class, age, etc. And there's words for each one of those to specify what kind of prejudice it is.

If you view foreigners as less than, you're xenophobic. If you view women as less than, you're sexist/misogynistic. So you if view someone as less than based on their race, guess what? You're racist.

you would be prejudice against white people or w.e

racism means you are in a position of power to make the race of people youre prejudice against life detrimental in some fashion

 

[Ganso Bomb]

Me personally, I feel like I might hold some racist viewpoints but deep down I know that I'm no better than anybody because of the color of my skin. As long as I don't mistreat anybody, I think I'm good.

That's a new-age definition made up in the past 10 years that conflates institutional/systemic racism with racism in general, which is just the belief of superiority to another race or prejudice towards another race. I can definitely be racist to somebody on an individual level without some societal power structure being attached.

My point still stands. Folks adding extra shyt

 

[Rhapscallion Démone]

If a black man has a business with majority black employees and start to assert ‘power’ or discriminate in his business against non black employees, would that be racist?

Technically speaking that’s ‘power’, is it not?

First of all let me clarify something: I am NOT a psychologist who has done research on this subject. I can only speak from experience, which I'm almost sad to say I have.
