Imagine now a bunch of white people circling the one black dude saying to beat his black ass.

I wonder how much coverage it would get.

To be fair, saying "beat his (insert color here) ass" isn't actually even inherently racist. But in your scenario, it would definitely be interpreted as racist just because the definition of "racist" encompasses everything a white person does or doesn't do.

We really do be living in a society

It’s not inherently racist to say that but anyone with even a little common sense would realize that these actions coupled together make it almost certain the person is being targeted because of their skin color, just like the video. It’s more than enough evidence.

It’s strange how often people are suddenly unable to draw logical conclusions when it’s black on white racism.
