  Because a white guy making fun of white guys isn’t racism. It shouldn’t need to be explained. And that’s just the very basest level of why it isn’t racist.

    Well, actually racism isn’t necessarily about treatment. It’s about differentiating between races and ethnicities and putting labels on them.

    White can be racist towards white, it just matters less because you are also implicating yourself, so it masks itself to general criticism when it’s negative. If a white called white people something positive you would start searching your nazi label, just in case.

      Haha what? I don’t label people who say nice things about white people as a Nazi just inherently. What a crazy thing to imply.
