Aversive Racism

1. a type of racism that occurs when a person sees a statistic and doesn't immediately assume racism is the reason for it

2. a type of racism that occurs when a person brings up any legitimate or logical explanation as to why there might an inequity between two groups of races (mainly one has to be white), that isn't racism

3. a type of racism that occurs when someone is being a critical thinker; (thinking is a white construct)
It's aversive racism to suggest that Breonna Taylor was tragically killed by cops because they were defending themselves after her boyfriend started shooting them, and not because they were racist themselves.

Wal-Mart is leaving Chicago because A) they want to starve black neighborhoods, or B) they're getting shoplifted into oblivion. If you think the latter, you're committing aversive racism.

You think our racial backgrounds aren't why you make $350K a year but I only make $250K, but think it's because you got 3 PhDs and I became a construction worker? You're using your PhDs to commit aversive racism.

Opportunistic Racist

The Opportunistic Racist follows the same mantra as the Preferential Racist, but is completely self aware of the hypocrisy and doesn't care since their goals are to weaponize grievances in a "rules for thee, but not for me" fashion. The Opportunistic Racist will use tactics such as cry bullying, tu quoque, misdirection, gaslighting, etc to paint their opposition in a bad light. However, they would do any of those same exact same things themselves and not see it as a problem. It's a form of projection, and a weaponization against their opponents of their preferential racism and hatred. They are essentially a more directly malicious version of the Preferential Racist. It is not uncommon to see these people as full time Grievance Grifters / Race Hustlers.

A coin racist is somebody who prefers a coin than another.

EX:

That was an example of a coin racist. Here is another example:

John Racism

John Racism, the inventor of racism, grew up in Mobile, Alabama, in the early 1700s. One day he stumbled across his very first black person and was fascinated at the pigment in their skin. From that day forward he dedicated his life to hating everyone based on the color of their skin and he made it known that in his mind, people with the same white skin as him, her higher in status then every other skin color. The people of his hometown all loved this idea due to them also having white skin. The word quickly spread amongst the white world and this amassed something of a cult following for John. To honor his name, the action of hating someone based off their color garnered his last name “Racism”. Although John may not have known it at the time, he would go on to have the biggest impact on this world, splitting it into a war of which race would end up on top.
Aaron: “Racism is such a bizarre concept, if it wasn’t for John Racism, I would have been felt more comfortable with the color of my skin”

Carlos: “Hell no! John Racism was a badass, I love being able to say racial slurs and feel better about myself because of my white skin!”
