Is it diversity when the minority becomes the majority? 🤔

.... but why the apostrophes though

C5 thank you for calling me a 2D thinker when you kicked off this back and fourth with the most one-dimensional (and racist) statement, and then proceeded to tell me a whole lot of information that I already know but you just assumed I didn't. I have a news flash for you, people can get through school, be educated on these subjects, know all the same information as you, and actually have a different opinion. People disagreeing with you is not "ignorance".

You don't even know me, and you sure as hell don't know how I feel about a myriad of social issues.

like

@D1 “...as political science researchers have shown, people will object to being racist - you will experience blowback.”

Yeah, that blowback stems from “teaching” those people a lesson. It doesn’t come from a place of upholding values or virtues. It comes from believing what someone’s granpappy said about people of color being on welfare and Mexicans taking jobs, which have all been proven false time and time again. I would refrain from using the example of political backlash being an anti-thesis to being called a racist because the silence throughout this presidency has been deafening.

You mean the complete opposite of your point? You made a racist statement. I don't care that it was about the majority race. It was a racist statement and you said "isn't about them" when it precisely is about them in a negative context. Your comment in particular.

You don’t even know what racism is (and no, the dictionary definition isn’t fully correct). Continuing to prove my point.

like

The definition isn’t new. But whatever 🙄. Sure minorities oppress each other (usually based on physical proximity to “whiteness”- straighter hair, lighter skin, etc), but the current power can’t exist without some people acting against their own greater interests in order to preserve their position above another within it (ask any Trump voter lol).

And people at higher levels should be ACTIVELY fostering diverse teams if we want better ideas to come out of team work. Not going, "Oops how did we get a team that is more than just upper middle class white men? Weird, cool." Colorblindness fails because only white people have the privilege to be able to be colorblind-- everyone else is forced to remember as they confront situations pertaining to their skin color on the daily. So yes, it may be scary to realize you might be more privileged than you think and yes-- a lot of it IS accidental on your part, we know), but it is essential to realize that there is room to grow so that we can all work towards making this a better place.

like

And yes, white men CAN be oppressed by other means. No where in my statements did I say the opposite was true. A homeless white guy in a wheelchair can be oppressed by ablism and classism, while not being oppressed by racism or sexism. BOTH can happen at the same time.

Diversity is good, being totally homogenous is not since inevitably the outsiders get the short end of the stick.

I've met many a sociologist who know so much that isn't so. It's amazing they've invented a new definition for racism. Or rather they've just limited it to institutional racism. So what you ate saying is minorities in America cannot be racist unless they're racist against other minorities or they're self loathing. Is that it?
