      I don't really think folx is a necessary word to have, bc I do think that folks means the same things, but I can explain the arguments I've seen. In general, it seems people use folx because they're signalling that they're extra accepting and they're very intentionally including all people in their message. It just sort of puts emphases on inclusion, but in my opinion I think folks is inclusive enough.

    • @msjkramey
      @msjkramey 3 месяца назад +2

      @oreochocolate_lavacake9960 I understand why people get confused with that though. There is a colloquial use of the word "racist" and then there is the academic version of the word "racist." People commonly call things racist any time there is racial prejudice (which I think it a fair use of the word but some people are very particular about calling it prejudice) and there's the academic use of the word "racist" which means (institutional) power + prejudice, so that's things like workplace discrimination, redlining, the school-to-prison pipeline, racial profiling by police, etc. That doesn't mean that non-black people are never victims of those effed up systems, but they're not usually the direct targets of it; they're collateral damage
      People will take the academic use of the word racism and then apply it to casual use of the word, which is what doesn't make sense. *Technically* black people can't be racist in a majority white country where most people in power are white, BUT people take that too far sometimes and end up saying that black people can't harbor racial prejudice, which is absolutely untrue
      I think it's also important to recognize trauma, including generational trauma in this discussion. I can't speak on the black experience in particular, but trauma gets passed down. Am I being sexist against men because I don't like being alone with men because I've been hurt by enough of them? I don't think so, but a lot of "good" men will take it very personally when I'm cautious around them. White people can be the same way. People will think, "Well, it wasn't *ME* who did the bad thing to you, so why are you acting like all _____ are bad? Look, you're the actually prejudiced one." But no, that's a reasonable trauma response. We ought to go to therapy to work through that trauma and figure out how to protect ourselves without living in constant fear, but we need to stop yelling at people who are trying their best to heal. That doesn't help anyone

      @Rose Anne Boushard First. The source you just gave is just for the survey's raw data, which is meant to be fed to data analysis software. It is unreadable. Can you refer me to the actual source that claims the survey's data proves what you're saying?
      Second. This is just one questionnaire based survey. It is bold to assume any single study in isolation, no matter how well conducted, can prove anything to be true. Especially when it's just a questionnaire which is the weakest kind of social study. Especially when it's a survey studying election sentiments NOT studying "which race is the most racist" (lol) Correct me if I'm wrong, but it really SEEMS like that's what you're trying to say it has proven.
      Third. Even if what you're saying is true in a general sense (for which I have serious doubts), you have no idea if it's true for the individual people in that video. Which is the point of why this video is gross. The irony is that you're the one making a judgement on the individuals in the video based on their race right now.
      My point is simply that it's a good idea to be charitable to people when they say reactionary things. Which is a grace I'm trying to afford you as well right now haha

    Part of the problem is that discussing “white people” *as an institution* - as part of a discussion on how race (and racism) operates socially and systematically privileges certain people - is different from discussing “white people” as individuals. A discussion of how whiteness operates as a social system is not actually supposed to operate as a condemnation of every individual white person, but it takes clear context to clarify what is meant by “white people.” The way that Cut framed it, it’s incredibly unclear which one they mean. Some of the Black people responding probably meant “white people” (the institution) rather than “white people” (the individuals), but Cut explicitly played into the confusion to inflame white viewers. Insidious as fuck.

It’s not that we “hate” white people, there are many who are just normal and nice people. I think the most notable part of the video is when they shift to speaking about white supremacy, which is kind of inseparable from the idea of “whiteness.” White people are just people, but they become “white people” when considered in context with black people, and we really only make the distinction when are discussing our country’s long history of racial discrimination since that’s the only reason to really bring it up.

    Thank you for putting the finger on what had been bugging me with this channel for so long! I used to watch it before they got all involved in race "discussions" and noticed a sharp shift in my attitudes towards their content. I went from enjoying it to feeling super uncomfortable and I thought it was me because if I'm uncomfortable it would mean I have something to blame myself for, that they are right and I'm just privileged but no! My whole issue with this channel is that they pretend to start conversations on important and deep topics but in fact give no space whatsoever for these opinions to thrive, and just use buzz-words and controversial statements as facts to make themselves feel better about what they do. In no way did they respect any person present on this shoot, they just sampled one argument they made and mashed it among tens of others, creating this mess of valid points taken individually, but so far removed from the narrative they create that it seems disingenuous and angers their audience. But then this anger doesn't get directed at the media, who managed to remove themself from their content by giving a fake platform to individuals and communities who suffer from the consequences of such anger. It's vile and I'm glad I finally understand it

Just like you wouldn't say "I'm black" when someone would ask your nationality, races aren't cultures and nationalities. There are so many black, white and other cultures that do not fall under the race category simply because within each race there are a lot of categories dependant on the countries and/or areas within the continent the race originated from
