You Ever Experience Racism?

Being half Korean/white, have been the brunt of jokes growing up. Funny how Republicans pretend like racism doesn’t exist In ‘Merica. What about you?
I’m white conservative straight male..
I’m literally hitler.. 🤔

everyone experiences some form of racism/discrimination/prejudice; funny how democrats think it can all simply be turned off...

@wildbill83 White conservatives are naturally the oppressors of other races. Sorry. Just sayin’.

@MedfordJay You have a single digit IQ. Just sayin'

I’m a middle aged white lady and work customer service in America and I can tell you from everyone I have talked to that racism is much worse in America than anywhere else, especially in the South. And black people here are extremely racist towards white people. The hatred is so sad. You can’t even be friendly to someone without them taking everything you say wrong and calling you a racist. I’ve gotten to where I don’t even talk to people anymore

While going to school my grandmother's race (native north american) was known and I was called injun by some of my classmates. My surname is German and so I was sometimes called a Kraut. My mother came from Wales and so I was sometimes called a limey. However that was just playground banter. I never experienced racism except the official kind. The governments of Canada are racists.

I have never experienced racism but I have witnessed it. I was not a silent bystander.
@JaggedLittlePill I totally believe that, my friend ! 🤗

Just a few times, when I lived in Lansing, Michigan. I am very white, and my hair was blonde at that time, so I was a single blonde Caucasian woman who bought a house near a predominantly black area.

I lived two right turns off of Martin Luther King drive, shopped locally, and it was at the McDonald's on Martin Luther King drive that I was shocked to discover race hatred because I was white. I used to order chocolate milk to put in my coffee, and I am not even going to repeat now what the girl at the window said to me.

Yes i have. Im a white man who was refused to be served in east L.A. because they didnt serve whites in a little restaurant. My future mother in law was so embarrassed. There was someone having car trouble so i jumped out to help him push his car. Turned out to be the next door neighbor of my then girlfriend. He threw the contents of his trashcan into her back yard when he saw me there. I married her and its been 18 years and counting.

@ronisme1 Racism is ugly, no matter who does it.
Yes I have seen it in action. I used to work for a chiropractor in NYC and I was interviewing for my replacement as I was moving. The doctor said to go through the resumes and remove any names that sounded "black." I was like, I'm sorry what?! That was insane. I left without helping bring on the new hire.

Everyone is made fun of.

people don't accept me as a slightly mutated human-canine chimera. They think it's sick and that zoo love is wrong, and so forth.

soo.. whatever that is, I guess. Persecution? yeah.. that.
Adogslife · 61-69, M
So, your post is a complaint about racism and you immediately categorize an entire group, Republicans?

Do you see that that makes no sense whatsoever?
uncalled4 · 56-60, M
Yup. I think everybody will at some point. It's difficult to argue with a feeble mind, especially one that just watched cable news....and maybe not even the one you're thinking of. And no, I am not belittling anyone else's experience.

Furthermore, it's not that some people deny racism exists as much as THEY may not feel ill toward a particular group and don't know people who do; it's invisible to them. That doesn't mean it's not there.
uncalled4 · 56-60, M
@Slade Interesting. I was only there once, though.
Slade · 56-60, M
@uncalled4 it's a dump. We had a bachelor party there which degenerated into a giant brawl. I got hit with a chain while playing peacemaker
uncalled4 · 56-60, M
@Slade Oof. I played over at Infinity Hall with my band, so I can't say I got the lay of the land.
basilfawlty89 · 31-35, M
Oh yeah. All the time in school.
I went to a very racist evangelical school and I'm half Mexican.
LordShadowfire · 46-50, M
@basilfawlty89 A white bean? (Sorrysorrysorrysorry...)
basilfawlty89 · 31-35, M
@LordShadowfire well the other part is Irish...so a green bean?
LordShadowfire · 46-50, M
@basilfawlty89 That works.
Oh, yes. Both the low-key and the in your face kind.
MedfordJay · 22-25, M
@bijouxbroussard Yeah. Understand. Most of my friends are blacks. I understand them and relate to them more. People don’t pick on groups.
Justenjoyit · 61-69, M
So as a white man going to Korea would I be treated exactly the same as a Korean? just asking.
Zonuss · 41-45, M
Of course.
LordShadowfire · 46-50, M
Worst I ever experienced was when this Mexican working at Taco Bell saw me approach the counter, but pretended not to, choosing instead to serve two Mexicans who came in behind me.
@LordShadowfire I’ve had stuff like that happen in non fast-food restaurants. I was afraid to eat the food when they did serve me. 😳
candycane · 31-35, F
Yes almost every day. I'm looked at like I'm not supposed to be here
Slade · 56-60, M
@candycane on what basis
candycane · 31-35, F
@Slade asian
Slade · 56-60, M
@candycane Are there others there too? It can be a huge problem in NYC as they are getting assaulted non-stop. Perps are almost always black.

Our idiot ex mayor said it was all white supremacy
