Advances in telecommunications technology as well as developing demographic trends are forcing racists out from the centre of their herds into the limelight of social and other media. Now that this soft underportion of our culture is so rudely exposed, how can we as a society respond? Should we hate on racists, ridicule them as ignorant and shitpost about them? I think not. Why not?
a) We know that our British heritage includes a couple of millennia of repeated invasion, brutal oppression, dislocation. So it is quite possible that racism is a kind of re-living of genetically imprinted trauma (as well as acting out a racial stereotype as well, which is a lot funnier). That is one reason not to hate on racism.
b) Racism is also natural - every social group excludes outseiders, and "race" is just a very broad social grouping.
c) Also racism is (consciously or unconsciously idgaf) encouraged in the media, even in the simple conceit that the technology itself was initially apparently discovered or invented by Europeans - even though barely one in a hundred of us has half a clue about practical technology, even buttons on a GUI...
d) Racism is associated with poverty, not with the abundance mentality!! :)
e) Racism is hate and hate is negative, all people are mostly good - anyway don't hate the narcopath; know and hate the cluster b personality disorder https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tHNYlYuaxcY
f) Racism is literally ignorance - race doesnt exist it's pretty much all speculation
g) Racism doesn't increase anyone's happiness
That was a lot to process on a rainy Sunday morning
