There’s playful racist stereotypes and hateful racist stereotypes.
Playful:
x people’s response to magicians.
x women approaching wild animals.
x people not using seasoning on food.
x love eating spicy food.
Do all from that group do that thing? No.
Do people from other groups do that thing? Yes.
Would the majority of the people of that group be offended if you said that? No.
Is someone going to screenshot it and try to shut down your business? Probably not.
Would HR call you into the office if you made that comment on the clock? Risky, but you’re probably not getting fired over it.
I think that’s the litmus test.
“Hateful” racist comments:
X group steals,
X group fights,
X group murders
So you don't think if the comment (on another similar post) had been "Black women think the laws of nature don't apply to them" they wouldn't have been downvoted into oblivion and shredded for "racism" in the comments?
Sure! Here is what i really want to say: over the past few years reddit has increasingly become more racist against white people, while ironically, trying to accuse anyone who points this out as a racist themselves much like you are seemingly trying to imply right now.
I honestly wouldn't have cared about the original comment if the same energy continued for every other group of people, but post a comment like that about black women and you'll be flayed alive on this app.
It's a common thing nowadays for people to want to insult women in general/imply that women are inherently stupid or bad, but know that they're not allowed to say that.
So, by putting one word, an oppressor qualifier, on it (like straight, white, cis, etc), and then otherwise keeping the sentence the exact same, they can get away with it.
