Because their implicit bias is racist.
Their implicit bias is produced from privilege and racism.
The shared experiences of black people or non-white folks are not rooted from racism - they're reactionary to white supremacy and racism.
Odd for someone who minded in science to rely on false equivalents.

PEOPLE WHO ARE NOT LIKE YOU
All of this is against the law in any civilized western society. Just cuz there are individuals with racist tendencies doesn't mean all white people have them. Why are you going back to the age of colonization and slavery, who today owns slaves. Why do you insist on shoving sins of rich white dead aristocrats on billions of people.
@ anyone in here thinking they know more about racism and the human condition than Jane ****ing Elliott. This woman has spent her entire life researching this subject. If you were really as open as you say, you would listen to the knowledge she is imparting upon her fellow privileged whites.
Some of yall really need to close your mouths and open your ears for once, instead of trying to put up a wall in defense all the damn time.
I agree. It's called plain old racism and it is anyplace anytime someone is denied of something solely on the basis of their race. That is the dictionary definition of racism, that is the actual definition of racism.

okay! they're in here arguing about semantics omg. at the end of the day, yes people of all races can be prejudiced and racist, but only white people have established and benefit from a hierarchy that puts other races at a disadvantage. no amount of hypothetical situations or deferences will undo that fact. minorities may have racist tendencies but they have no power to put those races at a disadvantage like white people have.
I agree but I feel like it's more of a lack of being able to relate to the problems minorities face. I don't know if that would be called racism but it's definitely some sort of intolerance.

So what you're saying is that everybody is racist, minorities are just not given a chance to exploit their racism for benefit as much as white people are. That sounds plausible. Or you know, most white people and minorities use their own will and logic to reject these tendencies and biases for the betterment of society.

The same faux-intellectual wankery crew denying racism even exists "nowadays".
"Only 100 years ago"

That's when it gets into systemic racism. Racism imbedded in society that puts minorities at a disadvantage. The US itself was built on the enslavement and dehumanization of a people and near Genocide of another. White people are the inherent beneficiaries to a country built on white supremecy. It was the truth 60 years ago and it is the truth today.

No one here denied racism exists. Even in the post you directly quoted it was explicitly stated racism still exists:
Quote:
are there racist people in the US? Yes, of course there are!
The only one who denies racism is ironicallly you when you refuse to awknowledge that there are memebers of minorities who hold extremely racist views towards white people and think it's ok to generalise all white people with negative attributes such as being racist.

If you knew the history of this country PARTICULARLY in regards to black people you'd realize why statements like these are so problematic.
Take some time to read up on the black experience in the US because it'd probably leave you sick.

Two people literally on this page literally denied the US is still a white supremacist country and that white supremacy can't be real cause "there's laws against that!" (there's laws against colonization? and imperialism? and that 'prevents' either from happening? lmao, sure, sis).
