Wow, this thread really took off. Why couldn't we have just ended it with the .GIF I posted in the first page?
Alright, well, time to get down to business.
Of course "reverse-racism" exists. Why the hell wouldn't it? Racism between all races exists. However, you're going to tell me it's as prominent and as serious as racism from whites to blacks? Hell no. I know this because 15 pages later nobody has been able to provide any evidence in support of the statement that racism against caucasians is as serious as racism against blacks. I feel like it's a waste of time to try to even oppose this point of view because it seems so obviously wrong. I don't even know where to begin.
Next, TGAC, what are you going on about? Why are you talking so much about something you apparently know very little about? As if anyone is suppoed to take your posts seriously after reading this:
I am 41 years old. From ages 20 to 37, I lived in 5 different states. 3 of those states are considered part of the South. And never in all my life did I enjoy myself more than when I lived in those states (to my suprise). Some of the kindest people I ever met I met when I lived in the South, and some of them I remain in contact with today, while I live here in New York with all the assholes (not meaning to offend anybody with that, I was born in New York). But TGAC is working off the stereotype of the Southerner. The South is not as racist as it's supposed to be, the South is not as intolerant as it's supposed to be. In fact, the worst state I lived in was Illinois. There are sections of Illinois that have the most disgustingly racist sons of bitches I've ever laid my eyes on. The South has certainly changed itself, and the average Southerner should not be held responsible for the South's past nor should he/she be held responsible for the modern Southern stereotype. TGAC, your "research" apparently didn't dig any deeper than your sketchy knowledge about the American Civil War and the 1950s. So kindly step off of the particular subject.
Now, that being said, TGAC, outside all of his ignorance, has a point. Like I stated, there is no serious "reverse-racism" threat that I can tell. No reason for "whites to wake up". There's nothing to wake up to. Everybody should acknowledge that racism against whites exists, but there's no reason to believe it's as serious of an issue as the OP claims.
Now, if you'd excuse me, I need to shut up my racist neighbor (guess where I live? Long Island! You know...not the South)
