Re: The Double standards are what gets to me

No, they definitely knew -- I sent them anon messages about Mackie.

They ignored me.

Surprise surprise.

All I did was send them links to articles describing what he said and suggest that they add him to the list.

NOPE.

That's kind of a weird thing to do.

Yeah I know.

But it gets under my skin and I wanted to see if they'd include him when presented with evidence that he'd said things just as bad as any of the white actors/actresses they were shitting on.

That they didn't just tells me that they're not actually offended by misogyny but rather they just hate white people.

DA

I think there's a large area between hating white people and feel uncomfortable calling out black people. They may not think it's okay but are too afraid of other SJW calling them racist to speak up.

That's still racist.

Because if you're letting black people get away with misogyny but not white people, you're basically saying it's okay for black people to be misogynistic, as though they're inherently that way.

Which is bullshit - black people are no more sexist than white people.

So by not calling out black people, either they don't actually care about misogyny and just want an excuse to shit on white people or they're fine with perpetuating racism.

Eh, you're comparing hate to hate and I'm comparing fear to hate. Like, they fear the wrath of their peers more than they hate misogyny and so they go for targets that their peers have deemed acceptable to go for.

Does it make them scaredy cat hypocrites who only bandwagon to feel good about themselves, yeah, but not necessarily white people haters per se.

Fear being the basis of your actions doesn't make it not racism though.

If you cross the street because you're afraid of black guys, that's still horridly racist, even if it's not based on hate (but rather, as you say, fear).

I just find it ironic because while they may not necessarily be white people haters, they ARE perpetuating racism against black people by letting them get away with stuff they wouldn't white people.

And I find that terribly ironic.

I'd say depends on what you fear.

If you cross the street because you fear black people, yea, you're a racist.

If you cross the street because other white people will throw rocks at you for being seen with a black person and it's not to do with the black people themselves, idk. Is that person doing an action that perpetuates racism, yeah they are. I agree with that. Are they a racist themselves? I can't tell.

More than SJWs do it. I know that many people let Kanye West get away with misogynistic (and sometimes racist) lyrics that Eminem is destroyed for.
