I've heard people say that it's not possible to be racist against whites..
So, opinions on this?? -
Racism is much more than anything that could ever be thrown at whites.
It's an entire system of oppression, with a long history.
One can be discriminatory or prejudiced towards whites, but not racist. -
I would say that there is FAR, FAR less systematic racism against white people than against people of other races. Let's face it, we run the world and have all the money. We don't have to worry about being followed in department stores or pulled over by cops for something as dumb as our appearance. But there's no question that some people just plain don't like us, because we have all the money and run the world and have done a lot to enforce our supremacy on everyone else. But that doesn't make it okay, hate is hate. I'm not personally responsible for slavery, Jim Crow, or any other systematic form of dehumanization or discrimination.

Eggy NoviceMy dad is the ultimate racist, anti-american, anti-mexican, anti-french, and anti-black. Basically anti-foreigner. So yes, it does exist but generally not against whites in general.

Watch one day when black people take over the world and make you guys slaves. :P

Racism exists in everything everywhere. Everyone's a little bit racist. Hell, judging people on everything about them is important to human interaction. It doesn't mean we go around committing hate crimes. But everyone is a little bit racist.

Whites don't have a long history of being oppressed? Whooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaa xD my bulls----o-meter just went off
-
Oh please. Give me an example of when whites have been oppressed, on the sole basis of their biology, and with a deeply-entrenched system, by non-whites. If there is one, it's most certainly an anomaly.

Ok, man, first of all, you're not specifying the u.s.a., that leaves tens of thousands of years, and hundreds of civilizations across the globe to think of. Second, deeply entrenched systems of oppression are not called racism. Theyre called deeply entrenched systems of oppression and have no more relation to race or biology or ANYTHING, then violence itself does.
Third, even if your talking about just the u.s.a., our little slice of civilizations which has existed a wopping couple of centuries, this question persists? White what? White men? Who have the ever loving s--- kicked out of their egos everytime they act a little more confident then people thinkbthey should, as a result of being socially pressured to have inhuman self assurance over 200 years? White women whos civil liberty is as much up for grabs as animals and corpses? White children who grow up in a country dominated by media that caters to the ethnically diverse majority who hold a generation old grudge?
Do I have examples of whites being oppressed soley based on their biology? f--- that question its bulls---. And I dont mean that In an emotional way, its just such a flawed statment that its baaarely worth acknowledging. If I didn't respect you so much I wouldn't. -
Your question revised:
"Whites in the US being handi-capped or left out of opportunities because of their race.
-Business loans
You can get one for not being a white male.
-Scholarships
They exist for everything but being a white male.
-Political positions
Votes are swayed on old racial grudges.
-getting a job
Employers by law have to have so many non-white males.
Shall I continue? -
I don't even think this question NEEDS that answer.
you don't get data if you don't get out of the common sense stage -
"White women whos civil liberty is as much up for grabs as animals and corpses?"
That's not just white women, it's all women. The issue there is with sex.
"White children who grow up in a country dominated by media that caters to the ethnically diverse majority"
What is this media that you're watching that "caters" to the majority? The majority of faces I see in the media are white.
And to address the general question, what exactly do you think racism is? If it's not a deeply-entrenched system of oppression? -
It's not like I haven't done some of these myself at some point- but it's worth a read. -
:Ethnic media:
-television shows that throw in races that shouldn't be there
-music throwing in rap sections to appeal to a wider range
-increasing number of kids movies that have rap songs thrown in them
-all ethnic movies getting bonus approval for being ethnic -
Racism by definition is exactly the prejudice you disagree it is.
Same media you get, that generated this halfcocked tunnel visioned argument that you're perpetuating.
Call it whatever you want, t he y WHITE, women and it is they're problem.
