It's astounding how kids these days have been indoctrinated into a phobia of just the *idea* of racism...but they don't care as much about the actual consequences of racism which can make it really bad.

I was on this subreddit about the Stranger Things Netflix show and there were multiple rants about how bad of a person the character Billy was....not one person brought up all the people that Billy actually brutally assaulted (all of whom were white), but only brought up the fact that he told his younger sister that she couldn't hang out with the black kid. I was of course downvoted mercilessly for suggesting that maybe racism is mostly bad for the violence it can foment....and maybe it's bad but still not as much of a problem to harbor racist ideas, than it is to act out violently against innocent people who aren't of a race that you dislike.

That's what we're dealing with here.  Violence and slavery aren't that bad....saying mean raciss things is the ultimate evil.

lol yep, it's insane the kind of double think they operate with on a daily basis.

You see the same shit with feminists. They get more upset about the most mild things which don't actually hurt women, than by institutional, structural discrimination against men. If you say a "make me a sandwich" or "women belong in the kitchen" style joke, by my eye, the worst thing you've done is tell a terribly unoriginal joke. But to a feminist, you're literally the worst kind of misogynist. Similarly, if you think to yourself that while women are better at some tasks, men are undeniably better than others, misogynist. Evil. Bad. But meanwhile, you can point to all manner of shit in society which objectively disadvantages men, and they won't give a shit. Because to them, the idea that some people might think any kind of negative thoughts about women is worse than men being objectively harmed.

Just like the point you made. They have their pet demographics which they care about, and the demographics they hate. And they would rather see a hated demographic be well and truly harmed than have anyone think something slightly off-color about a pet demographic.

But it's okay, though. They're the side of equality!
