Non whites: “You can’t be racist against white people”
Those same people: Racists.
Are you saying those people are incorrect to point out that incidental prejudice against white people doesn't uphold an institution of racism? Racism as it has been run by Europeans is a system that manages access to capital and disciplines workforces in the imperial core. That is more of a threat to white people than being called a fucking crackeroid
They’re incorrect to say you can’t be racist against white people. That is literal racism.
Words mean things. People don't always mean the same thing by them. These definition games are pointless. White supremacy backs up a completely different kind of racism than "go white boy go!!!", people are still being lynched and discriminated against for jobs in America to this day. It's also attached to the world's largest capital centers. It wields actual power via that discrimination!
