@EarwQrm@ninaturner Lmao tell that to all the White People still getting reparations from the RECA act. It’s just a little radiation poisoning fucking pussies
@white_poe@dijoni Thanks and I believe that means you know it wasn’t made up as a weapon against white people. it is over used nowadays I will be the first person to say that
@white_poe@dijoni The term racism originates from the early 20th century, combining "race"from the Italian razza meaning breed or lineage with the suffix ism denoting a system or ideology. First recorded in English in the 1930s
@capcrunch808@DarkBuckBlack@dijoni Prejudice refers to preconceived opinions not based on reason or experience, which can be held by anyone. Racism, however, involves both prejudice and the power to enforce that prejudice institutionally and systemically. Without the power element, actions or beliefs remain
@algojacks@TeacherTimBrown@IamMrCrackhead@dijoni If you read my original post systemic power is a prerequisite for the ability to perpetuate racism and that’s group think something I personally despise
@TeacherTimBrown@algojacks@IamMrCrackhead@dijoni I disagree. The bigot living in the trailer making racially motivated comments on twitter is just prejudiced the current president who passed legislation as senator to disproportionately target black Americans is a racist
@TeacherTimBrown@algojacks@IamMrCrackhead@dijoni Just a regular run of the mill bigot at that point the same as 98% of all bigots very few people in actuality have the ability to exercise racism. Even today most bigots are just broke dumbasses they ain’t racist because they can’t exercise their prejudice ideology on anyone
@algojacks@IamMrCrackhead@TeacherTimBrown@dijoni Few things are ever out of the realm of possibility it would be extraordinarily rare and difficult but it’s not impossible under the hypothetical laid out where blacks do indeed exclusively control various aspects of the governmental systems with the unfettered opposition
@mynameisricktho@dijoni That is exactly my point! Middle class and poor white people can be prejudiced not racist. Anybody can be prejudiced or bigoted. And anyone can be affected by racism either positively or negatively. It just so happens in America the power structure is white
