It’s it really reverse racism when the majority is shitting on the racial minority?
Is “reverse racism” ever a thing anywhere anyway? Racism is racism.
Honestly, my alarm bells start going off when people use that phrase.
Correct. Racism is racism. That said, it’s usually meant to call out situations where a minority group shitting on a majority group, which is not what is happening here.
This is humanity’s old classic - the majority shitting on the minority.
I'd call it reverse racism cuz the majority is actually upholding a minority. In china they literally hire Caucasian people to "look good" (whatever that means)
Isn't racism just discriminating against people because of their race? I don't majority/minority makes a difference for the definition.
Fair thinking, but I think "reverse racism" gets you understood better but that might be only me
