Casual racism has dreadlocs. maybe they like dreadlocks
Casual racism supports Republicans because of their financial policies. You should always support the political party that best supports your interests, no matter how unpopular. A portion of powerful republicans mayormaynotbe (totally are) racist, this doesn’t mean you should abandon your political ideals and support a party that is not best for you.
Casual racism isn’t rich, their parents are. What? Parental financial sucess has NOTHING to do with this. You cannot punish success.
Casual racism spent the summer vacationing in a foreign country. What? Again with the wealth-shaming. Ever been to Paris in the summer, it’s gorgeous. This has nothing to do with racism, some people like other countries. Some people have FAMILY in other countries, get your head out of your anus.
Casual racism eats at Chik-fil-a even though they have the means to eat elsewhere. How is that casual racism? Chik-fil-a isn’t a racist organisation, they actually make company-wide efforts to NOT be racist. Chik-fil-a simply does not support gay rights. Nothing racist about that, causal or otherwise. If you eat at Chik-fil-a what it REALLY means is: 1. You don’t care about all this hooplah. 2. You too do not support gay rights/marriage, and thus, support Chik-fil-a’s support of groups that favour your interests. Or 3. You do care about civil rights, but their waffle fries have a grip on your soul.
Casual racism cares more about animals rights than people. Okay.
Casual racism watches Fox News. Everyone should watch Fox News regularly. If not for the sheer comedic value of it all, then at least to hear both sides of the argument. Some anchors/hosts may be extremists, however, knowing both sides of an issue is part of being an educated voter you swine.
Casual racism likes Charlie Sheen. This has nothing to do with anything. He screamed the word Nigger and punched a wall. It wasn’t because he’s racist, he’s just one of those white people who say the N word. It wasn’t even in responce to a black person, or anyone of colour. It was just a random bout of anger. There isn’t anything in his history or personal life to suggest he’s a racist, particularly because he has multi-racial friends/coworkers that he (reportedly) gets along with them perfectly fine. Also, Charlie Sheen is funny.
Casual racism doesn’t think whitewashing is real. Okay.
Casual racism thinks the way the media portrays people is fine. Which people? I’m sure you’re not upset about the way the media portrays Mitt Romney, or Sarah Palin. Casual racism would be liking the way the media portrays POC, or something of that nature. If you have to not think the way the media portrays people is fine, then in order to not be a casual racist, you’d have to hold a disdain for all of main-stream media. That doesn’t make you a not-casual-racist. That makes you a hipster.
Casual racism doesn’t understand why Rue was black in the movie. Okay, seriously, it was cannon. Read the book ‘casual racists.’
Casual racism thinks Victoria Foyt is entitled to her own opinion. She is entitled to her own opinion. That’s not casual racism, that’s affording a woman her basic human rights and liberties. Casual racism would be supporting the message in her book. Actually, that might be active racism. It probably is. Yep.
I was the sassy bold-italics guy. I feel like this social justice blogger might be a bit dense.
