So, is racism okay if it’s against white people? Like, is it okay for someone to hate ALL white people because some white people two centuries ago killed Native American Indians and enslaved Africans? Is that okay? Please tell me your opinion.

White people do not experience…

That’s true, but they’re not being oppressed by me. I’m not the person in power, I’m not the oppressor, and I won’t accept being accused of this shit.
If people are against what the people in power are doing, they should oppose that person (like I do) not that person’s race.

You benefit from White privilege; you are privileged because of your race. You have unfair advantages because of your race. Whether you like it or not you are someone in a position of power; if you don’t like it change it.

Holy shit, you again? Damn, you’re like the ghost of shitty arguments past. “White people do not experience racism.“ Well, Ms. Whitecotton…

Racism: hatred or intolerance of another race or other races.

You’re absolutely ignorant of everything regarding race if you can’t grasp that this concept is applied to white people.

I obviously believe it is, I’m asking other peoples’ opinions because When I stated my opinion (that hating all white people for the actions of some is racist) so many people disagreed.

Oh, no. I was talking to the “Indian” woman who reblogged earlier. Her name, not shitting you, is Whitecotton. I wasn’t calling you a name, I was addressing her.

yeah my last name is Whitecotton. My family were slaves on a cotton farm and my ancestor’s owner named all his slaves Whitecotton. Why are you insulting my name?

Humor and insult aren’t the same. Your name is funny because it’s appropriate. I just remember you getting quite the attitude about whites and genocide and all this shit, having absolutely been destroyed in argument, saying I was lying, and then moving on. Lots about how evil white people were, yet you’re totally white-passing. That’s why your name is appropriate, and why it’s funny. But your name has nothing to do with how whites can experience racism.

I never called White people evil; I reblogged a post about the genocide of Native Americans. If you do some proper research you could find the information. And yes; I do have white passing privilege, never denied it. And White people do not experience racism; they can however experience discrimination and prejudice. I stopped arguing with you because you use insults instead of facts.
