Zone1 Please explain what anti-racist (or anti-racism) means

Seriously….I’m starting to see this term a lot, and have no clue. On the surface, it seems like a positive: I’m anti-rape, I’m anti-theft, I‘m anti-drunk driving, I’m anti-racism, I’m anti-all sorts of things. CLEARLY, there’s more behind this new term. What is it?

 

[Moonglow]

Anti-racist means you be against racism..

 

[Canon Shooter]

This is the first I'm seeing it used...

 

[1srelluc]

Just another in a long line of social constructs concerning ethnicities.

 

[Lisa558]

Anti-racist means you be against racism..

That’s what one would think, but it’s being used as a negative.

 

[Lisa558]

This is the first I'm seeing it used...

I’ve seen it used several times since yesterday. Since all of us now posting on this thread have no clue about it, perhaps one of the posters speaking hostilely of “anti-racism” will shed some light.

If it is used to define someone against racism I suppose, who knows with the usage of language the US has had.

Being Antiracist​

In a society that privileges white people and whiteness, racist ideas are considered normal throughout our media, culture, social systems, and institutions.

They all fall under the term 'antifascism'.

You could have included 'anti-religious superstition'.

Or 'anti-extreme right ideology'.

It means all White people are racist.

You could have included anti-socialism, anti-communism, or anti extreme left ideology.
Come on, Man!

But, we are talking about antiracism, and antiracists, right? Let's keep it there.

 

[Pete7469]

It's a term bed wetters use to excuse violently and aggressively assaulting people who they disagree with.

No profiling.

 

[OhPleaseJustQuit]

It means all White people are racist.

Everybody is racist. I've lived among blacks and they are very often nearly completely self-segregating.

 

[CarsomyrPlusSix]

“Antiracist” means horrifically racist against white people while trying to redefine the words “racist” and “racism” to pretend that your horrific racism against white people doesn’t count.

 

[Natural Citizen]

Anti-racist means you be against racism..

Racism, of course, being nothing more than a nasty form of collectivism.

As collectivists, racists think of human beings solely as members of groups rather than as Individuals. And they encourage Americans to follow that agenda by adopting that mindset.

This is what the whole ''diversity'' nonsense is all about.

So...to be anti-racist is to be pro-Individualism versus collectivism. One who encourages Individual responsibility and self-respect versus designated victim status grouping. One who believes, as the Framers did, that the role of the government is to protect Individual liberty versus placating arbitrary group claims.


That is all.

Ever hear of or meet anyone who was PRO-racism?

Being "anti-racist" now is just a new group-think term used by the left to signify you are pro-democrat and totally on board with the Left and to control their opponents. If you don't go along with the leftist marxist agenda, then they call you a racist, signifying to all of their virulent base to stalk you, protest you, doxx you, silence and oppress you and deny you food, air and life.

Now watch as not one leftie disputes this!

Ah. I got it, and what you say does make sense. Thanks.

Everybody is not racist. Turn black and be the only black person in places full of whites for 2 years. You will start looking for other blacks to be around after all the racism you have to put up with.

 

[IM2]

Anti racist defines itself.
