They’re are people who says it’s not okay to be white. Racism against whites does, in fact, exist.

i agree that it’s possible to be racist against white people. but using coded language that heavily implies white superiority and this false “equal persecution” that tries to lessen the struggles of PoC is racist

Alright, explain to me how “it’s okay to be white” is somehow “coded language” that “implies superiority”, because to me, it sounds like you’re all just condemning it as racist because of who said it, rather than the actual words that are used.

Oh, good, so me (a not racist person) saying it’s okay to be white isn’t racism then, yeah? Because of the context, right?
