    Yes, because your own experience in Australia represents the reality for any & everyone world wide.

    I'm mad you even got me to reply

    the western world is more similar than you think

    i've travelled a lot through the US + other countries

    oh sure, i agree with you here

    but that doesnt prove me wrong. 4chan is just the cesspit where that small quantity i believe exists converses

    imo the fear is overblown and unjustfied, and hence does more harm than good

    I live in Georgia and I've met plenty of outspoken racists, there, I've proven you wrong

    i dont care if you think that

    people really think there's roving bands of white people out there trying to kill black people, what kind of fantasy is that

    maybe 0.001% of the population is truly racist

    im perfectly open to be proven wrong, but nobody can

    0.001% of the population? What?

    Black faces and culture are being showcased more than ever

    White people are being sold black culture

    Yet there is an issue of systematic racism outside entertainment that runs bone deep

    Such a difficult thing to understand

    No I don’t believe 100% of white people are racist and I can’t tell you how many might be.

    I’ve seen some of your posts and you seem to think in black and white. Outright racism isn’t the only form of racism.

    And you’ve come into my thread to say that you’ve never met anyone racist while ignoring multiple people who have been victims of racism or racist attacks.

    You must be white because Australia is notorious for its racism especially against the aboriginal people.

    i don't think in black or white at all, and that's the whole point im tryna make

    it's the whole narrative of 'all white people are racist' that's becoming increasingly popular that im trying to push back against. people buy into it because it's a convenient simplification but it's not true. and it makes things worse by causing black people to hate white people that aren't their enemies

    all im tryna say is it's much more nuanced than both sides of the media would have people think

    The argument you’re trying to provoke is pointless; it’s impossible for us to ever know what percentage of the population is racist because only the dumbest of racists would willingly expose themselves as racists
    anecdotally I can tell you that I’ve encountered quite a few of them and other people I know in real life have had a similarly large amount of run ins with them
    from that, and the fact that someone who said that there were “great people on both sides” of a skirmish between white supremacists and leftists is the f***ing president, I can extrapolate that the percentage is much higher than 0.001%

    We're all individuals that live different experiences. What happens to one of us may not happen to the other, but that doesn't mean what I've experienced is any less real.

    im not taking anything away from you or anybody's personal experiences here

    im just saying personal experiences arent the be all and end all of how to form a perspective

    if there's others that have polar opposite perspectives then it's obviously not as black and white as some would us believe

    Despite never being on the fence when it came to social issues I didn’t do as much and I thought maybe there would be genuine change.

    I was always aware of the way people would flat out be wilfully and stubbornly ignorant. Years of facts not feelings (which was always bull) has shown most people don’t understand statistics and “facts” only matter if they fit their narrative.

    White republicans defend cold blood killers meanwhile, white liberals tell us to vote for people putting us in prisons. They tell us to vote a democrat in so we can start to change things but the only thing that will change is the obsessive nature of white liberals & Trump. They’ll go back to calling the police on us for existing and think nothing of it.

    This year especially has shown how establishment politicians and corporate elites utilise media to keep us peasants out of the halls of power. The white working class are being used by these people and the blame is on non white people and immigrants.

    Despite the fact that far right extremists wreak havoc around the world they don’t see them as much of a problem.

    People will still be talking about “the problem of SJWs” while ignoring obvious facts of course.

    If ethnic minorities were wiped out I believe white people would rejoice.

    And people will consume black entertainment and culture then turn around and tell you “well he shouldn’t have been resisting” “well they should protest peacefully” “well they should protest outside of their jobs”

    There’s always some excuse and when you sit down and challenge these people they will listen but they won’t think about it.

    I travel abroad for work and I wouldn’t say I’ve experienced racism all the time but I’ve experienced it numerous times. It isn’t always vicious but it’s there and it’s uncomfortable.

    Maybe instead of trying to invalidate my experience you can read and reflect on your idiocy.
