Yeah there have been a few times. In the town where I grew up all the Mexicans would get racially profiled by the police.
Really, I try not to think about these things too much though. I know other people have had it way worse than I did.
I literally get told my opinion doesn't matter due to me being a white girl on this site. not had it in real life though, trolls love to troll.
@SnakeBoop isn’t that the truth
Because of the rapidly changing demographics, even though i'm white, i was ostracized in church because i complained about mass being in Spanish instead of English.. oops
I'm a brown looking white girl and I'm always invited for a random check at the airport.
I was bullied for having a comparatively darker skin colour than my other brown classmates. I went to gym and they stopped bullying.
All the time “your a straight white male so you don’t get a say in subject A, B, or C”. Sexism racism and Hetero phobic if you ask me
Some Norwegian tourists looked down on me and gave me the cold shoulder but they had no problem whatsoever when they talked to my friend (he had very fair skin and blue eyes). Apart from that one time I never had a problem.
Yeah and its easy cause my name is pretty foreign so it has happened before.
Yes in person When walking outside in a certain neighborhood alone in the middle of the night
I'm a mixed race, which isn't really obvious apart from my straight black hair. So I usually enjoy white privilege, but if shit goes wrong I can also use the R card.
i’m mexican and mostly it’s micro aggressions rather than full on racist remarks/acts
Yes I have. My opinion has been considered irrelevant or inherently ignorant/stuck up because I'm white several times.
Yeah I get told I'm racist simply because I'm white. That's racist...
Is it in your textbooks yet? That’s what they want to officially teach with critical race theory. Not kidding. No exaggerating.
@backblueblack22 I know man that's what my dad told. It's actually ridiculous
*dad told me
People are waking up to this shit. Got to fight back. This is NOT a civil rights struggle. Instead this propaganda to make you feel evil for even existing.
You're right, that is racist.
@marc94 I’ll never tolerate real racism. But what’s happening now is Orwellian Marxism.
Absolutely.
Multiple times, yes.
But whites obviously can't experience racism. 'duh
I hope you're being sarcastic in that second sentence
I never claimed they don't. I have been prejudiced for my ethnicity as well even though I am white.

One would think that I couldn't be more obviously sarcastic, but as times are nowadays - it became tricky to be undestood
I got the sarcasm dude, but it was not necessary since I never even thought of something like that.
Yeah I had a black kid pick a fight with me in highschool because he knew that the administrators would blame the white kid if I actually fought him.
Lots of stupid shit like that at the office too.
I have.
It's a long story.
Thanks for the opportunity to vote yay or nay.
Yes, being an Indian guy, I've faced that a lot of times. Racial slurs, derogatory remarks and what not. It's preposterous to face the same hither as well.
Yes but i'm white so I guess it don't count
It counts. I was not asking only about race
I have.. I was passed up for a job I was well qualified for because I'm white and they wanted someone that was not white. (hr's literal words to me) "I'm sorry while you are perfect for the job, we are hot hiring white workers any more."
If you include the different insults, contemptuous comments and threats I've received either online or irl, yes.
But for me it's just words, in general I just brush it off and not care much.
