Sort of, but also no. They've been brainwashed, often. Doesn't mean they don't believe it. Plenty of these fucks are acting in bad faith, but plenty are also true believers, even if they can't formulate their own thoughts or tell you exactly why they're totally correct, and you're Bad and Wrong. They're not necessarily dishonest, though.
You don't have to treat anyone with respect. You don't have to treat good people with respect.
They always lose me on this one, and I wish they wouldn't go so far. Just stop at 'racism isn't always bad,' and don't go to 'racism isn't real.' Of course racism is real. Racism is judgement based on race. It can be reasonable, it can not be, but it exists. Attacking a random person just based on race is racism.
This whole argument is just too purist for me, sorry. Racism is real, but almost always exaggerated. People who attack others for "racism" are often wrong, but not necessarily dishonest, per se, but themselves victims of brainwashing by the cult.
You just contradicted yourself. By its very definition racism is a social construct that was hamfisted as an overarching concept. Race has no current definition, it has changed definitions at least 3 times in the past century and is now intentionally used in the most primitive sense because a bunch of low iq third worlders have dominated the social use of the word. Racism isn’t real because we can’t even define race in modernity.
Is racism against White people real?
People attacking Whites on an existential basis is real but using "racism" is just playing their game and expecting them to follow the rules they made for you. This is why it never works to mention.
Kienan's take is better. Claiming that race is a social construct is a common tactic used to attack White solidarity. It's better to say "racism isn't always bad" or that the word is misused than to say "racism isn't real because we can't define race." If we were in a public debate with some leftists and we said what Ahaus just said, then our position would look weak and poorly thought-out because it undermines the credibility of White solidarity or race realism.
How many Schrödinger races are there currently? Are Jews white? Are Persians or Arabs? The entirety of white Europe can trace their ancestors to two main progenitors the Anatolian farmers and the Eurasian Steppes hunters. The former is your standard Mediterranean and Iberian white while the latter is the northern whites, there’s of course heavy admixture in the Central European regions.
For the average layman, anyone who looks White and has some European ancestry is White. People who research the history of ethnic groups might have more nuanced takes, but the prior is how most of society makes their judgments on that issue.
Yes. The US Supremes just affirmed that.
Racism is racism. It can be for a group just as easily as against one. DIE is racist for promoting specific races over others. They don't have to single out a race to be against, they're defacto bigoted against all races BUT their chosen ones.
Racism isn't real because tribalism exists. It's all tribalism your inherent and bias subconsciousness preferring people like yourself. Racism is a perversion of tribalism into something meant for hate.
It seems like you stopped reading after "racism isn't real" because he explains what precisely he means immediately after (in the same paragraph you quoted) and furthers the thought for the rest of the post.
He's attacking the idea that racism is some real force in the world like gravity when it is in fact simply
This entire post is critiquing the immortal and pathological part, not that people judge. "Racism" is a modern social invention, coined by communists for the express purpose to gaslight Europeans, even if the underlying biological judgements have been around forever. You've internalized a historical psyop alongside the rest of the west and that very fact is what this post is about. You care about this post "going to far" because on some level you believe in the secular theology that makes "racism" its cardinal sin. As it was intended and conceptualized.
Racism isn't real, define it if you want it to be real. But you can't, and it isn't.
Any more than fruitism, homophobia, or anti-freshness is real.
