@Caleth you can do violence against "someone of color" and not be a WS (White supremacist). The term is grossly overused - just like "Nazi!". To the point those terms (and others) are meaningless (like the "OK symbol is racist" trope is meaningless consider the 4chan origins).
If violence happens against a "non-white" by a white person, that doesn't make the action "WS"... what make the action WS is... declarations that its because of race. IE a political platform that states that would probably be WS... violence against a mosque? Not necessarily.
@OwenReynolds Dr Fauci changed his stances on political winds and isn't necessarily trusted to be honest. Masks are good... bad... good... wear multiple... He's admitted to lying and making politically expedient statements. He's stated he does stuff not because of science but because of optics.
deccanherald.com/international/… and "advises against" is not a restriction from... using common names is still standard around the world and no one reasonable thinks Chinese People are responsible for the "Wuhan Virus" - anyone unreasonable can be mocked accordingly without destroying free speech or making equally stupid statements like "wuhan virus name is racism"
@WernerCD Ok, let me be more specific: Someone who posts a rant about how much better white people are and then shoots up a mosque isn't a white supremacist? Why are you so invested in deny these people exist?
@Caleth 1) I Neve said they didn't exist. not once. You putting words in my mouth adds nothing to the conversation. 2) Racists exist. But they are in a diminishing minority. So much so that real rallies with them are BURIED with "anti-protestors" - many times over.
@Caleth 3) in a world with 7 billion people you'll find racists of ALL colors... the disturbing focus on only the white ones is a large part of the problem in the greater conversation. There are just as many examples of others being racist yet that gets ignored. Why? Why are you so invested in only focusing on a part of the problem and putting words in my mouth that I never said to do so?
@Caleth trying to find where I said racists don't exist... I don't see it. Saying that China is the source of the Wuhan Virus isn't "racist". Nor is it denying that racism exists. Nor is it downplaying REAL racism. But labeling everything you disagree with as "hateful" and "racist" DOES downplay real racism... which is my point and why I assume you are putting words in my mouth that i never said...
'"White supremacists" are the boogeyman of 2021...' Are you implying that boogeymen exist? Because my understanding is that boogeymen are fictional monsters.
And racism is massively common, all over the world. It's only when you limit it to people saying "gas the Jews" or "enslave the Blacks" that it is a fringe viewpoint.
