[QUOTE="Ana the Ist, post: 74133179, member: 302807"] Years ago I'd posted about narrative bubbles and anti-intellectualism on the left....people acted like I was, at best, exaggerating. This is a result of some very racist concepts floating around parts of the left. In particular... 1. White fragility. The idea that whites unable to accept how racist they are and deny it, are weak. The whites who accept it and ask non-whites how they can fix it, are strong. 2. Whitesplaining. The idea that if a white person disagrees with a non-white on an issue of race....they are automatically wrong. Being non-white endows one with the ability to be correct on racial issues....by virtue of their race. Hidden behind both concepts is a definition of racism based upon "power" (and the idea that whites automatically have it, and non-whites don't) wherein only the "powerful" can truly be racist. The result? A group of people who judge ideas not by their merits, but by the race of the person presenting the idea. [/QUOTE]
