    I think a lot more people can appreciate that "being personally racist" is not a necessary precondition for "contributing to white supremacy" than can appreciate that structural transphobia is not reliant on personal bigotry, but it's the same basic insight

        "yes but how do you know there's hate in their heart, how can you prove it" is practically always a dodge, and people use it because it's effective

        man, I don't know what's in my heart 85% of the time, that's why I keep an eye on myself and try not to be an asshole when it might matter

        I was well into adulthood before I ever really thought consciously about what it must be like for people to be trans in this world. Of COURSE I've got transphobia in my brain. Got all kinds of shit in there. And that's why "what is in your heart" is never the real question.

        (And anyone who thinks it IS the real question is not to be trusted)

        If there was even one nonwhite person in my graduating high school class--of ~160 students--I don't remember their name. There probably was! But you get the point: I had and have a lot of shit to unlearn, and always will. I don't trust anyone who doesn't think that of themselves.

        Because that's the person who says "well I don't feel racist/transphobic!" and then goes right ahead and helps keep the world unsafe for human beings who are not white, or are not CIS.

        The subjective component of racism is very overrated and it would be good if more people knew this. Basically if a liberal arts education fails to get something like this across, it failed.

        Also almost any bullshit can be excused as not-racism. "Redlining? I mean SOMEBODY was gonna do it...."

        Every white person needs to read White Privilege by Robin DiAngelo - she goes into the defensiveness and this moral/personal reaction
