generalizing white people is survival. it is not racism; it’s not even prejudice.
Hey anon, it’s kind of hard to understand what you’re trying to say with your god-awful spelling then again I bet it’s hard for you to type properly with your head all the way up your ass like that…
Just curiosity for the sake of understanding (don’t jump down my throat), how is generalizing a whole group of people not prejudice?
Also, how is it survival?
For example I’m white, so if you try to judge me do you get like health points and avoid being sick for a year?
Now back to my being white, if I were to generalize any other group of people I would be called a racist.
Why is it not similar?
Again, just trying to be open and understanding.
Thank you.
Hello Corinderella, I hope I can clarify a bit since I wrote that generalizing white people is not prejudice. The reason generalizing white people is not prejudice is because prejudice is an act of dehumanization. Prejudice is having a belief of inferiority about a group of people for whatever reason, and then dehumanizing that group. The goal of generalizing white people is not to dehumanize them, but to acknowledge and dismantle their position of power.
Generalizing white people is a survival mechanism because, although not all white people are racist and harmful it is safer to assume that they are. People of color experience violence, rape, murder, genocide, assimilation, and other acts of prejudice by white people. White people, as a power structure, are the oppressive power. One should not trust their oppressor. One should know their oppressor and assume they will all act similarly in order to stay alive.
I hope this helps clarify if not feel free to message me.
