So where is racism this douchebag asks?
http://www.amptoons.com/blog/files/mcintosh.html I hope some people here have read Peggy Macintosh's White Privilege. It just describes how subtle acts are different for someone who is treated differently due to their skin color which white people, as the power holder in contemporary Western society, simply don't notice.
Being leery of an amorphous, complex subject? Wow that's some bullshit. People can't define anything when pressed. Americans lack the ability to express their thoughts. I'm sure this guy didn't pick and choose what interviews he used in his editing. He asks for everyday occurrences and then criticizes when it isn't equivalent to the holocaust as if there is some apartheid going on under our noses. Being patronized is just as offensive as being called a derogatory term.
As for the NBA shit, people fail to explain things in socio-economic terms because of a negation of Marxism from our everyday thinking but whatever.
Jesse Jackson is a racist. This guy is failing to recognize that non-whites are in a lower socio-economic cultural status still. Whites are in a position of power still. There is a disconnect but whatever he fails at recognizing it.
The beauty of ideology is that it can hide itself and fall under the radar.This guy wants to say that crimes against white aren't usually considered hate crimes. Social reasonings are always drawn on to rationalize them as not hate crimes. He needs to explain where racism against non-whites comes from beyond just a simple whites hate people for their skin color.
Assuming that whites hate because of difference in skin color, whilst blacks do so because they are persecuted bullshit.
Prove this.
Can you cite personal examples outside of the occasional nutjob, of whites hating blacks because they are darker? And I am not talking about generations ago.
"Subtle" racism? Hahaha, thats a joke; so looking at a black person the wrong way is "racist"? Newsflash: if I am walking on the streets at night and there is a female wlking towards me and there is no one else around, she is going to act defensive; can you blame here?
There are many whites living below the poverty line, why don't they have the luxury of blaming that on somebody else?
The fact that you resort to namecalling is an indication of a lack of a valid argument.
So, you are saying that ALL whites should just accept this "racial retaliation" due to events that neither side had a single thing to do with?
Fuck that.
