Actually curious, though

[(Anonymous)]

Is there any part of the world where white people, specifically, suffer as a race due to being white? (And I'm not talking about marginalized ethnic groups that are white, when the fact that they are white is not the reason they're marginalized.) Places like above-mentioned Japan where anyone who's not the native race is discriminated against don't count either, I'm talking about white people and only white people suffering for being white.

I'm not looking for an argument, I'm just genuinely curious because I don't think I've ever heard of that happening anywhere.

I don't feel I'm well versed enough to answer your question.

The only things that come to my mind is:
(a) we can't even seem to agree on what 'white' is half the time, because people start arguing what counts and what doesn't count, and
(b) it seems it's really hard to distinguish whether people are being marginalized because of race or nationality or other socio-economic factors. Such as where anons upthread discuss the motivation for discrimination in Japan - whiteness or simply being foreign.

I don't think it can be laid out in any cut-and-dried form.

Nope.

Is there a place in the world where black people, and only black people, suffer for being black? Not Asians, Indians, Middle-Easterners, or anyone else?

The answer is no. Therefore black people don't suffer racism.

Where I live, all non-white people suffer from racism, but the ways are different depending on their particular race. There are practices targeted for the most part at black people, and others targeted at Asians, etc. which happen because of stereotypes about that race.

So, it's like every country in the world then. Because literally every country in the world discriminates against races other than the majority and they're all discriminated against in different ways. Including white people.

"Places like above-mentioned Japan where anyone who's not the native race is discriminated against don't count either..."

Okay, but that's kind of how it works in general? If you're the non-native race or the non-dominant race, you're gonna be discriminated against. So if we're using that standard, then no examples of racism against anyone actually count.
