Most white racists in 2021 are not hateful TBH. I mean, they are still racist and it's still wrong, but most of them get to that place as backlash from leftwing racism. And most of them don't wish ill on other races, they just want to be left alone.

I come from a pretty liberal place and am pretty liberal for a pede. And it drives me nuts that most people I know on the two sides are really not that far apart. When I sit down and have conversations with people and really break it down it's pretty easy to see that both sides aren't that different and both sides are kind of racist in their own way.

The real problem becomes when you're convinced that your racism is justice. Like.... right wing racism tends to sprout from the want to not have your culture trampled on. To live in an insulated white neighborhood and when minorities do come to ensure they conform. Whereas left wing racism wants to attack that culture because it's perceived as racist.

Like... .take affirmative action. It's a great idea to give kids who didn't have private ivy league tutors a leg up in college admissions tor the want of a more diverse school. But WTF does it have to be based on color? Couldn't we base it on economic status? Letting a rich black kid with private tutors into your school isn't helping anyone that's disadvantaged.

Sorry this got long.... I think both sides get race wrong... but I think this side at least gets the idea that they might be wrong sometimes. The other side just assumes it's right and that vindicates it all.
