        I still can’t believe his cartoon got cancelled due to reverse racism… No, seriously, I can NOT believe that he actually says that shit.

        Edit to add: I’m so confused to see people agree with me in their replies but also obviously downvote me. Maybe they didn’t make it past the first sentence? Oh well, I’ve really been appreciating the discussions I’m reading!

          I can’t stand that term. “Reverse Racism” implies that Racism is supposed to go a specific direction. Anyone who uses it is Racist themselves.

          It’s just Racism. Like “de-evolution”. It’s just evolution numb-nuts!

            I’ve never thought about it but you’re right, anyone using that term is immediately telling on themselves.

              That would be anti

              The term “reverse racism” has been around for decades, a mis-application (sometimes intentional) to imply racism is automatically one way.

              It means discrimination against the majority, rather than the minority. In America, it’s usually used to mean discrimination against white people. But like, that’s still racism.

              It sprung up levied (incorrectly) at equality initiatives, because no longer discriminatiing in favour of the majority looks similar to beginning to discriminate against the majority if you don’t look too hard.
