With my recent post I was trying to ask if there are other people like me who also feel that people seem to focus more and more on skin color and ethnicity in an unhealthy and obsessive way and I thought I’d find some people agreeing with me who also feel uncomfortable and stressed out by this.
But instead the overwhelming response was people trying to justify racism instead of agreeing that it’s a bad thing and needs to end. As if they were trying to use every possible argument to bash on me and justify racism.
Why could it be the case that so many people here on Lemmy support racism? In my opinion there is no reason to discriminate someone based on their looks PERIOD!
OP, when you’re out of your teens you’ll remember posting this and cringe, which is a good thing!
“Racism = bad” is a solid fundament. Working out the kinks is tough, though.
Keep up posting and debating, that helps. I think that we’re roughly all on the same side here.
Yea I really don’t understand how people on this platform don’t realize that racism is bad.
And I’m not in my teenage years anymore.
