    What would you call discrimination and prejudice towards people based on their race or ethnicity, in a word?

      White people can’t experience racism. White people are the beneficiaries of racism.
      Telling a beneficiary of global white supremacy his podcast sucks is not racism.

      Not taking a stance on if his podcast sucks as I have never heard of him. Discaring for the dude’s takes and insulting him for it still isn’t racism. He is white.

        I’m not sure which comment you’re responding to as it does not appear to be an answer to the question posed, which was: What would you call discrimination and prejudice towards people based on their race or ethnicity, in a word?

            I suspect the answer is a bit more simple - they’ve a comment history of concern trolling rife with, shall we say alternate facts - I suspect they’re just trying to bait out uncivil replies for a report and ban.

            I suppose it’s possible they’re actually so deep into that koolaid as to be approaching flat earth levels of theories but I try to not assume people are that far gone.
