Of course you do. Wherever did you get that silly idea from?

I set aside my emotions and invested time into exploring the wide array of data and research that is available on the topic. Then I read the personal, lived experiences of other people to supplement the knowledge I gained as a person who identifies as a woman.

So you can be white and understand racism or not? :D

From a theoretical perspective we can make efforts to gain understanding of the systemic issues that allow it to continue to thrive and do our part to address and dismantle those structures. But we will never understand the actual feeling of it nor be in the receiving end of it.

Wrong.

Lol how can you say she’s wrong about something you never experienced in your life? That’s the problem. You think that you can know and feel everything without experience. If a majority of ppl are telling u something is going on, how can you say they are wrong? Remove your biases

Are you seriously going to marginalize my experiences? I've likely experienced racism at a much larger scale than you will ever know. Have you been physically assaulted multiple times only because of your perceived race? I have.

I would hazard a guess that likely had much more to do with your persona of being an antagonistic douche than because you’re white. Though being white definitely contributes to your entitlement and the shitty way you treat folks so it may be a fair point.
