One of the sneaky ways that the Left legitimizes racism is through the insistence that discrimination and racism can only go one way. Thus they use “reverse racism” to refer to minority hatred for white people.
And the media’s headlines and stories about a recent case of a woman who claimed she was discriminated against at work insist on describing it as “reverse discrimination”.
Woman takes ‘reverse’ discrimination case to Supreme Court – ABC News
Supreme Court signals it will make it easier for Americans to file ‘reverse discrimination’ suits – CNN
Supreme Court leans toward reviving straight woman’s reverse discrimination claim – NBC News
Supreme Court appears likely to side with straight woman in `reverse discrimination’ case – USA Today
There is no such thing as ‘reverse discrimination’. There’s either discrimination or there isn’t.
By attaching ‘reverse’ to the kinds of discrimination that leftists approve of, they’re arguing that those kinds of discrimination aren’t really wrong. They’re also pushing the Marxist contention that racism requires some sort of power (and DEI being embedded everywhere from Walmart to the CIA apparently isn’t it) and that racism without power is just a reaction and a non-issue.
Racism isn’t an economic condition. It’s not a product of power. It’s the condition of hating people over their race.
When it comes to manufacturing a term like “reverse discrimination”, it’s even more absurd because discrimination either occurred or it didn’t. If it did occur, those responsible clearly have power.
So does those in the media trying to justify and dismiss the existence of the hate they agree with.
Only bigots call the kinds of discrimination they support “reverse discrimination”.
As the only white player besides the coach’s brother on a basketball team in Central Islip, NY, I’ll never forget being in the back of the van traveling home from a game with my teammates saying “you’re afraid to hit the white boy.” The hits came. Don’t tell me blacks have no power.
Anyone surprised about the subsequent white flight from Central Islip should do the human gene pool a favor and not reproduce.. The nonsense that blacks can’t discriminate because they have no power requires recalibrating the Stupidometer.
The world needs more Thomas Sowells and fewer “Reverend” Jesse Jacksons,
How sick has it gotten? We get Sleepy Joe telling people if you don’t vote Democrat you ain’t black.
Yeah, I had similar experiences at that age.
a lot of us did
Racism “is not a product of power”? What’s it a product of, then?
Well, according to Mr. Greenfield man is ultimately an irrational animal that rationalizes everything. So according to Mr. Greenfield mankind is doomed to war and by man’s nature to all forms of irrationality including racism.
It’s the “product” of a person or group of people hating another person or group of people on the basis of their race. Adding the “power” dimension to it is, a) just a reflection of Marxist analysis, and b) the Left wanting to exempt the allegedly “powerless” black population for the blatant and virulent racism of many of its members.
Racism is based on hatred, you retard. You should be used to that because you’re probably hated wherever you go.
Algorithic A, if you care too. What did you experience? Was this throughout your public education?
What is your view now, of those former classmates?
Yeah, every fight I’ve been in with a black guy except one was because the rest were anti-white racists.
I would say your experience is the hidden epidemic of the past 50 years.
Unfortunate to “hear” of your experience in HS…
Did anyone in authority notice or address it?
Did any fellow non white student support you?
Today I will wear the custom made t-shirt that states “Affirmative Action is Systemic Racism.”
excellent
Yes. A true American hero.
mickwhorn – a true eurotrash wanker.
Come on, man. Don’t insult eurotrash like that.
Yes. Truth to power. You’re unintentionally right for once.
I prefer “Affirmative Discrimination” but that’s just me.
So are “critical race theory” and “DEI.”
It like calling mandatory insurance “health care”. It’s so easy for them to fool the government educated idiots.
Kind of like Marcuse’s “repressive tolerance.”
Terminology as weapon.
This was the NBA in 1970:
Yes.
But everyone in America is dumbed down: So ‘reverse discrimination’ is ‘real’
because of the Big Lie effect.
Seriously, we can discuss this nonsense here at FPM – except for our resident trolls –
but in real-time I would need three hours to explain to any random American that hating Whitey is a form of racism.
And that’s just independents or ordinary Americans.
We’re so used to being subhuman pond scum who have to justify not paying some foreigner to stomp our face and call us names
We think we’re Nazis to declare that America is a great nation.
Heck, I just had an argument with my ‘based’ cousin –
trying to explain to him that science was not invented by atheists to kill us all with cancer.
The man is 43, and I was explaining 7th grade science to him.
Absolutely clueless.
Nowadays seventh grade level science is beyond most college grads except for the ones with science degrees, and I’m not too sure about all of them. Climatology is no longer a science, for example, and social “sciences” never were.
I don’t know what ‘based’ means, though, other than the literal definitions.
Discrimination is discrimination no matter what and trying to cut off the Bank Accounts of Gun Makers is Discrimination in which case Hogg and his fake group March for Our Lives is just another Tool of the UN/CFR/Globalists just like Climate Brat Thunberg
Hogg gives pigs a bad name and Thunberg gives mongoloids a bad name. “Babe” and “Corky” are pissed.
