When I was growing up in the old country I was recognizant of people’s races, but it factored in for me about the same as their hair or eye color. This was back in the early 2000s.
Exactly. This is how it was for a brief period of time, and for some awful reason we rolled back to a (frankly bad) thought process of needing to be completely mindful of and ‘filter absolutely everything through’ a person’s race. Just, why. “I have a dream that my four children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.” We had MLK Jr’s dream for a very short bit, and something made it all fall apart. Sucks man.
You want it to end? Stop making everything about race. Period.
Alas, the people pretending to advocate “racism is bad” are the ones perpetuating it by making everything about race. When I was growing up in the old country I was recognizant of people’s races, but it factored in for me about the same as their hair or eye color. This was back in the early 2000s.
But now? People discuss it ad nauseam. The “progressives” (and I use that term very loosely) turned it into a big deal for the sake of being contrarian.
The fight to “stop racism” will never come to an end while people fight it, ironically enough. You want it to end? Stop making everything about race. Period.

I don’t care about lefts or rights, but Hermaeus Xerxes isn’t the brightest bulb in the box. His virtue signaling is legendary. He’s so desperate to look like a good person because he isn’t one.
@Hermaeus Xerxes
I thought you said you weren’t gonna reply to me anymore.
Anyway, your hallucination is noted. What I actually said was being far-left and obsessively blocking all non-leftists because you only wanna interact with far-leftists and live in a far-left echo chamber is the same as being in a cult.
@TexasUberAlles
I’m not sure how you would even know about the block lists of that many supposed people, but okay; I’ll just take your word for it and assume this isn’t a troll. And it sounds like I haven’t actually done anything and the people you’re talking about blocked me just because they’re a bunch of far-left SJWs who think to not be rabid SJWs is extremism and don’t want anything to do with any non-leftists and wanna live in an echo chamber, which makes them a cult.
@reversalmushroom
Dude, you have one of the most-blocked blogs in all of Tumblr Pony fandom for a reason, and it’s not because people aren’t fans of The Simpsons.
@Hermaeus Xerxes
This is a nothing comment. You just said “I’m not going to explain how anything you said is wrong or racist.” Why don’t you say why those things are wrong, stupid, and terrible? Because you can’t. The people who say “you’re wrong, but I’m not going to say how” always don’t have a leg to stand on. You’re not fooling anyone. Everyone knows.
@reversalmushroom
It’d just be me copy pasting your comment buddy. Everything you said was wrong, stupid, and terrible. Can’t convince you think differently with elaboration, y’all right wing fucks are outside of reality. Real flat earther level shit. Have fun with that.
If this is talking strictly about KKK-level stuff, people actually, consciously hating an entire race of people, then sure, I agree 100% and have no problem with this.
However, if the context is the artist is an SJW who thinks everything is racist, Trump is Hitler, Nazis are everywhere, fascism is on the rise, systemic racism/white privilege is a thing, but racism against whites isn’t racism and is okay, that enjoying racist jokes actually spread racism and must mean you actually are a racist who hates other races, and that perfectly normal, moderate political opinions like being against mass/illegal immigration, wanting immigrants to learn the language of the country they move to and assimilate and not get on welfare, criticizing Islam, criticizing third-world cultures, wanting to cut welfare, wanting voter ID laws, agreeing with official crime statistics, and denying systemic racism are signs of secret if not outright racism (none of which are true), then I understand where all the dislike is coming from and it is deserved, because they’re not talking about real, actual racists but calling a shitload of people that who aren’t.
The standard that should be used for what is and isn’t racism is the 90s standard, where to be considered racist, you had to intentionally do things to people because of their race and say bad things about entire races of people, not this microaggression, secret racist intentions behind not overtly racist things, white privilege, PC bullshit. The 90s are considered modern, not extreme times, so if society didn’t consider something racist in the 90s, it’s not now and never can be. Were all the aforementioned opinions that SJWs now say are racist considered okay in the 90s? Yes? Then they are now and must be forever. You can’t just retcon 90s things into being racist. Oh, yes, that extreme 90s racism that everyone talks about where you were hated and shunned if you did bad things to people because of their race and said you hated races of people, and there was no race-based legislation, and protection from racial discrimination was enshrined in law, and people believed people of all races could achieve anything and treating people differently because of their race was wrong and that everyone should be treated equally. Oh, what extreme times the 90s were.
I’m going to give OP the benefit of the doubt and assume that they use the golden 90s standard and aren’t a far-left SJW with a vastly over-expanded, hyperbolic, overly dramatic view of what constitutes bigotry.
@Hermaeus Xerxes
alright, I will concede that you and I have only been exchanging words on these subjects. but I have not seen sufficient evidence to suggest that Rhorse is a racist. A troll: yes, a racist: no; and I am content to let this conversation lie here.

Legendary you say? I’m flattered.

Well, THAT certainly explains whole lot. 🙄

Yes, the west is so filled with and run by white racists that millions of non-whites are trying to leave their countries to get in.
Anyway, this is the far-left in a nutshell. Refusing to be confronted and justify themselves.

Nah. I just know you’re a lost cause. Bye bye buddy. 👋

Elaborate.
Nah, I’m far left. And you’re a dumbass racist, so please go away. 😙
one to change the lightbulb and six whites to stand around complaining that he’s not changing it fast enough

Eat shit.
If doing blatantly racist things doesn’t prove racism Idk what will buddy. 🤷♂️
