But they should acknowledge something they did do, even if just by going along with what people in power or specialized groups of people were directly responsible for. The level of racist actions, attitude, and spoken words in the US is absurd given it's the year 2020. It's very real, and many innocent minorities have to deal with it in their lives some in a very tragic way. You don't get a pass because can't ( or won't ) see it.
You SHOULD feel bad for that reality. Even on here, I have to ask why blatantly racist posters like "Ayn Rand" and "Scata------" are allowed to voice racist content; it barely gets any blow back from Americans on here. Which makes me wonder just how ingrained the racism is deep down in your country.
I shouldn't even have to acknowledge it. My family hasn't been in the country more than 80 years. I won't dignify racists by acknowledging something I am not responsible for. The logic you are presenting here is a stepping stone away from the "feel bad because you're white" everyone seems to think is okay to say. And yes, telling white children to feel guilty and force them to "acknowledge" the "crimes" their "ancestors" committed is in fact racism. I've dealt with plenty of racism as a white person growing up in a minority neighborhood as well. For some reason people think this is me "getting what I deserve" instead of the same thing you're saying these minorities allegedly experience constantly. How about how the Irish and Italians were treated? Is that also not racism because they're "white"? This is marxism's "equality of outcome" for treating an entire race like garbage because a subset of them are racists.
Do not punish me because of my skin color. Do not force me to atone for a sin I did not commit. Stop shifting the goalpost on what racism is. Most importantly stay off my lawn.
