My brain is definitely starting to process "yt" as a racial slur, I only ever get called that when people are trying to dismiss me as bad because of my race

I agree with you - however I do not believe it is actually even possible to use racial slurs against white people because of the extent of systemic bias. So I would say you can be prejudiced against white people - but in many cases that is actually 100% justified.
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

Racism under the most accepted academic definition requires underlying systemic bias - without it, that's just prejudice. Old ideas of racism fail to really capture the experience of POC because they miss the key component of systemic oppression.

It's discriminating against me on the basis of race. The term "racism" suits that definition for me, but we can call it whatever you want - it's bad and it's hurtful, and it's also the thing that historically white people did to black people.
