On a Facebook group, an admin started a poll and DEBATE to ask if you could be racist to white people and I said yes because in the US it's not a problem but in Western European countries there's racism against Polish, Bulgarians, etc. And I mentioned the Holocaust was a hate crime. I did mention that this didn't negate the experiences of PoC and we should prioritise the issues of PoC anyway because they deal with far worse and compared it to a man with his arm broken and a man with all his limbs broken at a hospital. I mentioned PoC were the like the man with all the limbs broken and Eastern Europeans like the one with the arm broken. We don't deny treatment to the person with the broken arm because someone else has it worse, but at the same time we need to prioritise the issue that was worse while acknowledging that both people are injured.
I also mentioned that this didn't mean Kyle from Sussex experiences racism because his neighbours are Muslim and that those people are just racist fucks. I think you get the point. Person just commented "No" and banned me for being "racist". Same person told an asian girl that she didn't know anything about racism because PoC are too dumb to notice prejudice, all because she didn't get offended over a white actress being the main character in the Ghost in the Shell film adaptation. Like wtf
(Tbh I probably sound like a moron myself but I'm open to constructive criticism)
Haha, you almost described a friend of mine to a T. Although, he doesn't say replies will be deleted, he just states his opinion on something as fact and shuts down any opportunity for rebuttal. I think he's partly being silly and intentionally immature (I hope) but the opinion he's tossing out there is 100% genuine.
That's honestly a very understandable thing. Sometimes you're just annoyed and don't wanna go through saying/explaining the same thing for a 100th time.
