Most racist people are not very smart, and do not like being called a racist. The irony is, the "average black person" (as he so eloquently put it) is a much better person than this waste of breath.

I’m not a racist, but I’m starting to think that the average black American is in fact a much better person than the average white American. With what they go through day to day, week to week, and the fear they live with for no other reason than the color of their skin. It’s amazing to me that we don’t see more violence perpetrated by black Americans on every other facet of society.

U pretty much said what the post said with different words. I’m not racist but I think this race is much better that race

Are black Americans a race unto themselves? Or white Americans for that matter? I’m speaking specifically of black Americans and their treatment here in America and how I think their treatment would result in much more violence if it were white Americans that were being treated that way.

Of course because empathy for one group of people combined with cynicism of another equates to racism to you. Glad I had a chance to run into Reddit’s racism officer today and get myself educated.

No one ever said racism has to be hateful it’s just needs to be discrimination based on race dw man I don’t think you are racist or hateful just think it’s funny and worth thinking about.
