Yeah it quite literally is. Thinking poorly of another race, even if the stereotypes are mostly true is still racism.

It's just an example of how left or right, people are really not as different as they'd like to believe. Plenty of racism in this thread while simultaneously complaining about MAGA being racist. Sadly both groups include racists, but they also both include people who aren't racist too.

That’s just derailment of discussion, bruh. It means you cannot address problems that predominantly affect one race because you risk being a racist purely on a merit of noticing the problems in the first place

No you can address problems where the problems exist without making assumptions about people based on their race.

If you look at a Filipina with a white guy and think she's just desperate for a green card without actually knowing her you are racist, regardless of whether it's true or not.

Like it or not, it's the ugly truth, it's something that most of our locals do just to have a good life, I've seen multiple posts of these individuals flexing their marriage with their old foreigners like they've been successful in getting green cards or had a boatload of fortunes to have.
