Try to stay out of these debates on Twitter but... wow. If you are "white" you are racist. If you disagree that's "right wing rhetoric". Ok.
-
Well, as you can see this is less of a debate than a rehash of populist rhetoric. A shame really
-
What if she said all humans are prejudiced and since racism = prejudice + power only white people have systemic power behind their prejudice
-
Your 'since' is flawed. Racism != prejudice + Power. This is yet another populist definition. You can be racist without power
-
Um no... not populist. It's a sociological definition. It's how racism is commonly defined in academic circles.

-
On a serious note, let's not confuse correlation with causation. Power is an uber-enabler, not a pre-requisite. As it is with sexism etc

Right wing? wtf? Distinguishing between branding an entire group of people as racist and acknowledging their privilege is just common sense
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
