Damn, I hadn't considered that.

I'm not racist because you haven't proven I am.
See, one thing is if someone says "Hey them black/chinese/indian people are really trashy and stupid right?", an entirely different matter is if someone says "Hey that X person is pretty trashy and dumb amirite?" and that trashy dumb person is a poc. I think you understand the difference. Or should anyway.

Introspection is when you try to gauge the validity of your own thoughts and beliefs, what informs them, and so on as honestly as you can. I think that if racists used introspection, they'd realize they've been brainwashed into prejudice. Widespread incapability of introspection is one of many things that are keeping racism alive

That's a very lucid clarification for someone baked.
