       White people:You have an opportunity right now in this space. Follow some BIPOC. Open their threads and listen. Keep your opinions to yourself. Unlearn tone policing. And for fuck's sake don't demand education or emotional labor. You aren't owed either.

       @MsNostromoLovely idea to send ppl to school for s.th. they might have learned decades before your mother gave birth to you.Pls. be kind to fedinauts you don't know and stop addressing white ppl as a group. This is racism and appears as kinda naive to foolish to fascistoid attitude.Excuse my French, but you touched a red line with me and, maybe, many others. ://@UlrikeHeiss

       @textbookYour answer is a perfect illustration of the problem. The first step would be to acknowledge that you don't know everything and that you are probably speaking from a position of relative privilege. Quite frankly, I don't care anymore if a cross a red line with a white dude. White dudes have been crossing other people's red lines for centuries. If someone shows *them* a red line, they are quite surprised and hurt. (I answer because I boosted the post and yes, I meant it, too.)  @MsNostromo

       @UlrikeHeiss @textbook @MsNostromoI think all of you are being rather naive.For starters, saying "white people" is about as vague as saying "people of color". Then rather than making racism an attribute specific to "white people", it is rather an attribute of humans in general that all humans must strive to resist.And finally, saying that "reverse racism" is a myth ignores all reality that one would get pretty fast travelling Africa for example

       @textbookReally, re-reading your post I realized my answer was way too nice. Reverse racism isn't a thing. Go read a book that wasn't written by a far-right Christian white man. I'm going to block you now.  @MsNostromo

       @UlrikeHeiss @textbook @MsNostromoInstead of making nebulous descriptions of racism, we should all strive to reduce discrimination at all cost. There is no good discrimination beyond helping the needy.Saying that people of colors can't be racist is racism btw, you are literally making a race argument against racism
