Get the Racism mug.Technically, it is a reaction to racism towards non-Caucasian people. It includes economic and political benefits in effort to compensate for past and ongoing social oppression experienced by non-Caucasians.
Such oppression ranges from marginalization to physical abuse to childhood emotional scarring to the gym teacher shouting "DO YOU SPEAK ENGLISH" to every Chinese kid he sees. But none of these examples are anywhere near as catastrophic when compared to a reactionary anti-white joke told by a black standup comedian. From this reasoning emerges the term "reverse racism".
With respect to the term itself, "reverse racism" implies that there is backwards logic behind racism against Caucasians, and that it is somehow more deserving of disapproval than just regular racism.
Furthermore, "racism" and "reverse racism" can be interpreted as binary oppositions, where "racism" is the (socially conditioned to be) acceptable state, while "reverse racism" is the unacceptable counterpart.
Reverse racism can also be interpreted as a defense mechanism for "white man's guilt".

Get the Reverse racism mug.Related Words
The tu quqoue approach of battling racism and should never be used because it will just set back race relations another good 50 years. As if race relations haven't been set back far enough after the BLM coming out of their caves again in May.
Black person: Milk bottle!
White person: bet if I said that to you then you'd go absolutely ballistic at me lmao so you can still pretend to be oppressed.
Black person: we are oppressed once and now it's time to oppress whites.
White person: You can't fight racism with racism you fucking idiot! That's tu qoque and you are just setting back race relations to how it was back in slavery which happened 400 years ago when none of us even existed today. Why are you blaming us white people today for participating in slavery when none of us were alive back then and even better, why are you still moaning about soemthing that never even happened to you? It is time to look to the future and forget about the past. The goal now is to fix race relations instead of setting back the vast progress which has been done in the past several hundred years.

Get the Fight racism with racism mug.Analogous to the Law of Conservation of Energy, Conservation of Racism states that the total racism of an isolated system remains constant; it is said to be constant over time. This law means that racism can neither be created nor destroyed; rather, it can only be transformed or transferred from one form to another.
Student 1: paraphrase of Ibram Kendi, "Racism didn't go way after civil-rights act was passed. It just became more complex."

Get the Law of Conservation of Racism mug.Something that has existed in every society since the beginning of time and shows no signs of going away right now. Whether it's white, black, Hispanic, or Asian people it's always another race that's at fault for whatever problems they have.
Imagine if we just looked past racial differences and see that we're just people. I know this sounds boring but it's true. Unfortunately racism will likely always exist in some form.

Get the Racism mug.The dehumanizing practice of placing an inappropriately large amount of focus on a person's race, by which people are divided, stereotyped and socially ranked.
Believing that a person's race is more important than their individuality, to the point where accusatory labels such as Racial Guilt, Inequity, Unconscious Bias and Racial Privelege can be attributed to an individual, based solely on the color of their skin.
This particularly harmful brand of Systemic Racism started in universities, but has since become the Modus Operandi of Leftists, Democrats and mainstream media. Examples of it's use can be seen in schools where "Critical Race Theory" is now being taught, also in the media sensationalism of white police shooting black citizens, where the "RACISM" narrative is decried, often without fact checking, or by intentionally leaving out crucial information that would deflate their narrative.
If you spend too much time focusing on race issues, YOU'RE RACIST. If you treat people differently based on the color of their skin, YOU'RE RACIST. If you think people have inherent differences, strengths and weaknesses due to their race YOU ARE A RACIST.
