My definition is the number 1 definition on the dictionary you linked.
And here's how definitions work:
If you fall under only a single of the definitions, you are as defined. I.e. maybe you don't have a systemic advantage over me, (neither do I over you, because I don't live in the US and am a racial minority in the country I live in), you are still racist under the other just as valid definitions. They're not outdated definitions, they're official and still very much valid definitions that apply to you, a racist.
I am not helping the right one bit, you are radicalizing the right by spreading hate against people who had nothing to do with building the system, or had anything to do with slavery. Why would anyone listen to a raging lunatic calling them all sorts of slurs? They'll think "the fuck is wrong this person?"
You are so blinded by hate, and so motivated to "get back at the oppressors" you would attack an entire race over it. Go outside.
Your definition is literally useless and outdated because it doesn’t take into consideration neither power dynamics nor the global systematic racism created by white imperialist countries which has existed for hundreds of years by this point. That is why in critical race theory, which actually studies how race affects groups in a scientific manner, only the second updated definition is used.
You are literally helping the right so much by calling any criticism of the oppressor group as racist. This group literally created a system of oppression that keeps marginalized groups oppressed all over the world and constantly votes for policies that reinforce their supremacy in the system. That is pure right wing ideology.
Bro, you literally don’t understand anything and just keep repeating the same nonesense over and over. It is making my head hurt honestly. Please read on critical race theory and stop spewing nonesense. Once you get yourself educated on power dynamics reach back to me. But meanwhile, please don’t waste my time with ignorant smart ass remarks from someone who doesn’t obviously know anything.
What criticism? Your post literally is "haha, look at sad white people after they get what's coming to them"
And your entire joke only works if "all of white people" was one single entity, but they're not. A white person is not responsible for other white people.
And why should that one white person just shut up and take the punches for something they're not responsible for?
But I will read CRT and get back to you one day. If it is based on science as you say, it should offer an explanation to why hate only is acceptable when it is directed at someone with a system advantage they didn't ask for.
That the white character is called a piece of shit for all that the character has done
The point of the joke is to point out the history of oppression that white people have excerted to all those groups in the picture. Or all those groups just put as one entity as well?
The meme is about the oppression that white people have done, and how they are being called out on it, but acting like victims saying that being called out for it is oppression, when it is not.
If you didn’t notice the characters of the meme represent groups, not just one person. If they did represent just one person, then that one person did all of that and then deserves to be called for all of that, no?
You desperately need to!! Your understanding is very very lacking.
You need to chill dude. Contrary to your nick you're not behaving cool.
Take a walk, shower, find a therapist to discuss your thoughts; and if you have one, and they don't call you out on your behaviour here, change them.
Instead of being calm you read like as if you were panicking. Why? Someone calls you out on a shitty meme and you literally got feverish.
