Are accusations of racism becoming too frequent?

[joseph5620]

If someone accuses you of being a racist because most or all of your favorite fighters are black, that's a false accusation.

I don't think someone who supports his own people is racist. People are free to root for whoever they like.

A racist is someone who hates people of certain race(s).

If a black person usually belittles and discredits nearly every single white boxer, or if a white person belittles and discredits nearly every single black boxer, then that's obviously racist.

You just described yourself. Congratulations.

So much so that it has become almost meaningless, which is unfortunate for those who still experience blatant racism.

Very true...

There is a lot of racism on here but mostly contained to the same handful of posters..

Sometimes though it gets used just because someone disagrees with you

Good thread - lol it's even more relevant today than it was four years ago when thread was made - with all the accusations of "racism" and all the hoaxes, etc.

The word literally has no meaning anymore - hell, people can't even agree on the definition of racism now.

No people are just too butthurt about it. Most people are racist to some degree. Deal with it instead crying about it. As long as their racism isnt affecting you personally then why even care?

"Words matter" only if you let them.

People are to sensitive to others ignorance.

But some get away with it more but it is not called racism

Overly sensitive people are usually the ignorant ones. They are accustomed to a reality "adjusted" for maximum emotional convenience. Cognitive dissonance is the established root cause of oversensitivity.

This is why the left is famously bad at one-on-one debates/oral arguments, but quick to march around in large packs chanting simple slogans in the street/trying to physically intimidate people into not being "offensive" by revealing information which disrupts their fake worldview.

We call these racists usually. Racist has become an ironic synonym for dissident intellectual.

Actual racists who rant about exterminating ethnic groups? They're celebrated and invited to speak at universities. Strange world.

Indeed. When you don't agree with the far left they will resort to violence, won't let you talk or get very aggressive because they are offended by you. Never mind if they offend you because they are right.

You can have an strong opinion on something but it doesn't mean that it is right and has to be shove down my throat. There is several groups of ppl that can say what ever they want without repercussions and there is another group that no matter what they say it gets spun to fit a negative agenda
