@bankfloodmaebi Mentality like that. Why even bother when you don't believe that people are shaped by their environments? Why even bother if you believe that people are doomed to be evil. It's such a miserable worldview.
@bankfloodmaebi I at least don't expect you to *FORGIVE* racists. I think OP isn't a bad person for not feeling safe around them. But to believe people aren't capable of change is the complete opposite of progressism, and there is no point in fighting for justice with a
@parabutdiffrnt That they're making an effort to learn from their mistakes, and to make sure their behavior doesn't happen again, then they don't really see a point as to why insinuate they still hold the same morals they did years ago.
@parabutdiffrnt I believe OOP's post is in response to a current topic of discussion that became popular this week, that Is, if you' were racist, you will forever be racist. I believe the point of view is, if someone genuinely shows themselves to be remorseful, show -
@dcksrvgly@oddinaryalien@gisellepotions@_VINEGAR00N Ultimately, I believe everyone subconsciously has racist believes, specially the privileged white people.

@dcksrvgly@oddinaryalien@gisellepotions@_VINEGAR00N Change will make you the complete opposite of progressive. We as a society have to work to get rid of all the internalized racism everyone has in them due to the fact that we, unfortunately, live in a racist society. People aren't born racist-
@dcksrvgly@oddinaryalien@gisellepotions@_VINEGAR00N We keep fighting for the rights of minorities if for you, all of this will account to nothing. First and foremost, to be progressive we have to understand people are shaped by their environment, by their circumstances. Believing people are incapable of-
@dcksrvgly@oddinaryalien@gisellepotions@_VINEGAR00N Nobody here is saying you *HAVE* to forgive racists, or to feel safe with people who used to be racists in the past. What we are saying is that people are capable of change and show accountability for their past mistakes. Truthfully, I can't understand why-
@OrisaCowCorpse People confuse racism with systemic racism and oppression. Racism is used to oppress, but you don’t necessarily need to oppress an entire group of people to be racist. It happens at the individual level too. I wish people could make things distinction
@squirtcano@frogihaveno@arcanes You didn't reply to this either. You're being racist by assuming op is racist when she was venting about the racism she suffered.
