    “That actual racism out on display […] Replace white with black, indigenous, Jewish and you’d be banned in a second”

    Reverse racist rhetoric? Where have I ever seen that? Oh, in white supremacists.

    Do you know why I would be banned if I exchanged white for absolutely any other ethnicity? Because, historically, it was the white elite that went out to exploit the rest of the world and created racism as a “scientific” justification for doing so. So, for any eventual “oppression” (OMG, the Call Me Mañana on lemmy.ml said that for my country to be fair the majority of the white population would need to die, I’m so scared) against white people be considered racism, you would have to rewrite history (and that’s what white supremacists do, by the way).

        Sorry for the late response. Unfortunately, it is impossible to be racist against white people in the West, since they are the ones at the top of the racial system here. Still, it is not completely impossible all over the world, my fellow Armenians go through similar oppressions. This is absolutely not the case here. It is just some random guy on the internet saying that freedom of the human race will only be achieved with the end of white people in Amerikkka. Obviously chitchat in response to centuries of oppression, but you had to screw it up.

        When colored people enslave white people for centuries and then “free” them by throwing them into a segregationist system, and after much struggle change the laws, but still keep them as second-class citizens in practice, then you will be right to say that a white person suffered racism.
