Original definition:  "belief in the superiority of a particular race" 

This is bad. It was pretty much nonexistant in the past few years. PoC liberals and their white allies then keep redefining racism:

First it's: 'prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against someone of a different race based on the belief that one's own race is superior.'

And then it's "Racial prejudice + institutionalized power" So people of color are deliberately absolved from racism. Even when LaShawn Marten screams "I hate white people" and beats Jeffrey Babbitt to death, that's not considered racism.

And now it's "Institutionalized racial privilege + institutionalized power". They don't count affirmative action as 'privilege' but they count band aids having a color similar to white skin 'white privilege'.

Some have even went farther to say that any anti-white comments are justified (i.e. far from racist) and that historical oppression makes anti black comments infinitely worse.

Please consider my arguments. Anyway, I've spent quite a bit of time browsing black twitter. I think I have a pretty good idea of what blacks think, and some of the stuff they say, in my opinion, is twisted.

Your obsessive focus on racism in an almost guarded and persecuted sense makes you seem more racist than not caring about it.

In general, blacks are the ones who care most about race. They are the ones most sensitive to racial stuff on average. And then they blame that entirely on whites saying it's 'white privilege' for whites not to think about race. Blacks being that sensitive to race is one of the reasons they won. Right now there is a huge double standard in the name of justice. Blacks used to want equality. That was being treated equally. Now they say screw equality and now they want 'justice'. AKA being treated better because they were historically oppressed.

"Race itself is a construct developed from a mixture of history and skin hue"

Bone marrow transplants are strongly affected by race.

"and how you display yourself is 9/10 of it regardless of color."

Blacks have an advantage. Black liberals are criticizing the Democratic presidential debate for not having any blacks in it. When a white liberal tries to explain racial stuff, and black liberals don't think he's gone far enough, blacks would call the white liberal a 'privileged ignorant racist'/

It makes me wonder how one could be justly raped.

"It doesn't really affect me, but many whites are being unjustly raped because of this."

what?

"It doesn't really affect me"
It's affecting you enough to rant about it this long.

"In addition, I care about this, because blacks will only go farther and farther, as they're louder. They will impose more and more double standards."
So... black people scare you?

"If you said this to a black person, they would call you 'privileged' and 'ignorant of the struggle blacks face daily'. Since you complained about a black person making everything about race."
They can call me whatever they want. It only matters to me when it creates difficulty in my life. I'm more likely to be surrounded by like-minded people who share my views on race anyway, something that isn't just a "white" thing to think. Most people I end up sticking around with are fairly progressive, so this hurdle you worry so much about isn't really a problem for me.

It's not worth spending so much energy trying to be liked by everybody, especially since appealing to one area can make another one see your actions as unappealing. There's no winning when it comes to race other than finding people who don't give a fuck or at least only give a fuck about the parts of it that really matter. If they're spending time telling me who I am because of the color of my skin instead of traits about the me underneath that or blaming me for things others that share my hue have done by lumping me in as "one of them", I'm probably not having a real conversation with them.

Lets forget this sense of sociological grouping you're prone to for a second and ask about you. How does this get in the way of your life on a personal level? Not "how does this affect whites" or "how does this affect political banter", how does this affect you?

It doesn't really affect me, but many whites are being unjustly raped because of this. In Rotherham. I strongly suggest you read the link. It's racist to mention a strong correlation between ethnicity and rape. In addition, I care about this, because blacks will only go farther and farther, as they're louder. They will impose more and more double standards.

People who make everything about race serve to alienate those around them regardless of color. There are some areas worth focusing on in a grander sense (like economics and opportunity), but most of what's brought up about it these days really doesn't matter. You don't have to care this hard about it unless it's personally getting in the way of your ability to live life.

Blacks, whites, all I see right now is a WW3 who can't shut up about race. The more you focus on it, the more you serve to push yourself away from people.

"Bone marrow transplants are strongly affected by race."
"His race is different from mine, so I can't benefit as much from a bone marrow transplant with him. God damn I hate that guy."
Seriously, how often does that come up in a conversation about race? This is a bit of a stretch.

Who gives a shit how much others care about it, why should you care so much? No matter what color or gender you are there's going to be people hating you for it, so why worry so much about them? Do you experience realistic threats of physical violence from others because of your appearances and choices?

The Rotherham police turned down the white children who were gang raped, in fear of 'racial profiling'. It's unjust rape but not according to the Rotherham police.
