i have some pretty neat thread ideas revolving around disparaging remarks against white people but lowtax says that you can't be racist. just want to make sure that saying mean things about white people isn't racist.

here are some thread ideas that are currently on my whiteboard (not a pun). the slurs have been censored until a consensus has been made:
- (italian man) pasta party
- erotic art for (russians) by (russians)
- (polish) children for sale or barter
- my black girlfriend called me a (person of irish descent)

these threads are currently lingering in committee until i can figure out if people think that disparaging remarks about the physical features, societal highlights, and/or hygiene issues of white people can be construed as racist

Man, everyone is racist against white people, and that's fine. We find those people who aren't racist against us, and we're so nice to them, "have some free blankets" we'll say. "Give us a tour of your mineral reserves, please" and we'll hang out. "How would you like one of our industrial corporations to invest in your region?" as small talk. We're great people. Give us a chance. We're just so nice, and everyone's racist against us.

‘Murder’ is the fatal result of a system of economic, political, social, and cultural institutions that oppresses marginalized racial groups. Murder is killing + power. Murder is not merely the unjustified taking of a human life.
This is the modern, educated definition of murder. Don’t quote the dictionary at me. The dictionary’s definition of murder was created in the 12th century by white people. The best definition of murder is used by academic people of color such as Tim Wise and Judith Katz.
Can POC kill white people? Of course. It’s bad (though understandable) but it’s not murder. It’s killing. Your individual experience (“my mother was killed by a person of color”) does not justify you calling that act “murder.” When you call things like that murder you are dehumanizing the ACTUAL victims of murder.
