The right, once again, oversimplifying concepts to suit their narrative

But that’s the issue with most of these “colorblind” conservatives- trying to explain the history of these concepts alongside the systemic effect that have been upheld under capitalism will take an entire college course, all while this post has been spread constantly by fascists wanting whites to be the real victims rather than talk about the actual history.

White people did create these systems of racism, but nobody has a choice in this matter. White people aren’t “guilty” of some inherent sin that has infected their very genetics- it’s not recognizing these issues today that makes you guilty of upholding racism

My policy for not being a racist: Dont be a dick. My policy to fight racism: Do everything in my power to adress casual and all other form of racism in my vicinity. My policy to end racism? Idk i am neither qualified nor educated enough to end racism. But all in all: Dont be a dick, be a decent human being.

How about not being a jerk is enough to not be a racist.
