No, I'm talking about the whole as a set, mathematically, I'm pretty sure that distinction is part of the lexicon, your ignorance is not an excuse for strawmanning me againWhen you say, "the whole, you're once again classifying white people as a whole, and then attributing things to them that are derogatory toward those who are black. You're being quite hypocritical in doing that while talking against white people doing the same.
Some white people do this, the whole is responsible vicariously in the idea that this is a cultural behavior and can be corrected. And white people are derogatory against even other whites, but that's far less common than treating people of color in general as dangerous, foreign or otherwise outside of their particular in group
I'm not doing your homework for you, do research into this and find counterexamples instead of playing burden tennis with me when this is the information age to begin with and thus, if you think this is somehow cherry picking, then point out the inconsistency instead of demanding evidence that has impossible standards in the first place with your dismissal of racism as only being individual and never systemicAgain, I ask you to give specific examples.
They shift with "re-imagining" as the woke like to say.
Pretty sure that's not how linguistics work, but you'd have to cite that and haven't even tried, just making generalizations based on your out of touch perspective
Nor do your claims about "white privilege" hold any water if you can't even be specific about what you're talking about--or come up with any remedies to the supposed issue. All you've done is imply that people who are white need to be ashamed of who they are based on their skin color as a way to virtue signal, and that's no solution at all. It only justifies racism of a different flavor
I'm saying that white people have subconscious culturally conditioned ideas about black people that inform various decisions they make, even in general interactions (like you can find with an easy Youtube search on racist rants or driving while black, etc), let alone in settings that would demand more professional and neutral application instead of preferential treatment towards white people, as if they're also being "fair" and have no biases at all.
The remedy is taking a step back from a culture that favors whiteness in terms of representation in politics, entertainment, etc, and think that maybe white people shouldn't complain about any changes to something they find as traditionally white based on some objection to an imagined ideology they can't substantiate except with conspiratorial paranoia
No, it isn't remotely about shame in regards to skin color, but treating skin color as something that should be embraced in terms of the diversity and not used as a pretense for enabling biases that are damaging. And don't pull this idea that white people should be proud of their skin color, that's not what the term always means, same as with gay pride, it is not arrogance, it is self respect against a culture that marginalizes them by treating them as if they are less important. Or do you think your experience of seeing "more gays" means they are represented remotely equitably to straight people?[/QUOTE]
