    I think it’s a way for white Americans to distance themselves from the cognitive dissonance of being a settler by adopting an “embrace, extend, extinguish” strategy towards any term or cultural signifier that was made cool by Black people

          There are other forms of racism than institutionalized/systemic racism. There is never an acceptable time to be racist. There never is an acceptable group to target with racism. Permitting any racism is excusing all racism.

              Why are you defending racism? Why do you think some racism is acceptable?

              Do you think more racism is the path to ending racism?
