Trying to discuss race with white people is like talking to a brick wall. I just tried to talk about racism and got fucking ganged up on by white people swearing that you can only be racist if you intend to be so they aren’t racist as long as they mean well. It’s so fucking entitled when white people start lecturing poc about what’s really racist. God.
No it doesn’t, not at all. Racism is built into the very foundations of society, it’s not an individual problem, it’s a societal one often intentionally ignored by individuals for whom it benefits.
