Is it possible for someone to be racist against their own race?

Question

This is a curious question... I have a friend, a white guy, who seems to look down on white women and discriminate against them.

I've never seen he say anything negative about any other social group, he doesn't pick on white men or people of color, but for any reason he seems to dislike white women.

He says white women "are the arithmetic women. They add trouble, subtract pleasure, divide attention, and multiply ignorance," "parasites, not human beings," "a mother nature's mistake," "should be mute from birth," "they do performative wokeness and talk shit about white men just to divert people's attention from the fact that white women are POS," "naturally incompetent and stupid" and that "he'd rather get AIDS than kiss a white woman ever again."

I find this a bit offensive, but is it racist?

Absolutely. Perfect example. Black people and colorism. This was done by putting light -skinned slaves higher up in the pecking order on the plantation. So dark skin "Blacks" internalized that hatred since their lower status was wholly due to the shade of their skin and their having broad African features instead of the more dimunitive European features. Light-skinned blacks felt superior since they often were the progeny of miscegenaton (interacial couplings) between the slave master and his female slaves; therefore, they possesed the "good" "civilized" features -- for example less kinky hair and smaller backsides. Because African features were not just othered but considered to belong to subhumans. Evwn today, many whites under the protection of anonymous surveys still hold black people to be less human than themselves.

These light-skinned "blacks" were in the homes of their captors they took on those mannerisms thus fostering a hatred of the darker skinned blacks. Diasporic African peoples have major issues with colorism. In the Caribbean it is still hard for some people to separate black (menaing dark skinned) and ugly when insulting the person. I can't speak for other races since I don't belong to them.

Here on gag, usually, blue anons will say "black" women are men. This is due to them not fitting the European ideal of femininity. This is racist, by the way.

I think worldwide there is a favortism for the lighter skinned peoples of whatever race or group.

Yes 100% I knew a guy who hate all hate white men when he was white himself he was just a hypocritical potential rapist sorry "male feminist". I also spoke to another guy who was Indian and he told me he was so happy to have move out of his old town to a more whiter area because white people are just so much more quieter and polite according to him.

I've also noticed I do this myself at times I get annoyed at my race for being so privileged and entitled. I grew up very poor with very strict parents. So it gets on my nerves when my other white friends get everything handed to them by there parents and don't understand why I don't and think I'm odd because I don't waste all my money on phone contacts and ice coffee. They are also so wasteful with food and act so embrassing and disrespectful drunk or on holiday whilst a lot of my other friends from other races are too scared to even go go abroad or get drunk due to public perception. If a white man starts shouting and messing about in the street at night he just drunk but I can promise you it be a different story is it was a black man.

I'm not a social justice warrior or any of that shit but it's just things I've observed whilst being raised in a very multi cultural city

If you don't like people who look like yourself you probably have a really good reason to. It's not like you're just guessing what your own mom is like for example. No, I'm not saying I share the guy's opinion about all women but I'd say 50% of women across the board have certain very predictable tendencies these days. Just based on observation.

Instead of losing sleep over the guy, lose sleep over all of the women who hate YOUR guts and are actively pushing a gender war. They smile to your face & laugh behind your back. Oh, wait, if you do that it might harm your chances of getting laid.

I'll be honest, a lot of white people annoy the fuck out of me. I'm geniunely from a really bad inner city neighborhood, and it's not glamorous like pop culture makes it to be. It's terrible. I moved to the suburbs to be safer. When I see suburban white dudes try to act hood I just want to smack the dog shit out of them. Or those confederate flag waving morons who can't comprehend life is not the same for minorities. Claim they ain't racist then say super racist shit.

Of course.. I talk shit about Redneck hillbillies all the time! Or white dudes that try to act like they're ghetto but they grew up in nice suburbs! Why? My father left when I was just a kid and he was a farmer. The way my mom always described him as I was growing up was a Redneck and she would say he'd beat my ass if he caught me dating a black man if they would've stayed together. That was one reason she didn't get along w/him b/c she isn't racist against anyone. And the "wiggers"? For a little while we struggled and had to live in a crappy neighborhood that was predominately Hispanic and black people. Crime and I went to a shitty middle school. Then in my early 20's I lived in a real ghetto neighborhood when I was stripping/escorting. That is nothing to show off! Be grateful u got it good living in a peaceful area, nice house, no ugly quick marts on every corner w/crackheads standing outside, junkies roaming the streets.. but some people wanna act like it's something to b proud of? No thank you.

Honey... Yes. I'm a living example, but I'm 2D. If hating on my own race because they wanna act like hoodrats and dumbass n*ggas because they from the hood and all that shi, then I'm a racist of my own kind, yes.

RationalMale · Answer

Absolutely. Any person of any race can despise or loathe or think any race is bad/inferior.

Today, there are millions of White liberals who flat out despise their own race... while they live in White suburbs, enjoying the safety and high standard of living that comes with it.

menina · Answer

Yes, it's possible. I've never seen a white person making racist remarks about their own people but I've seen black people saying racist s**t about blacks.  Your friend needs help.

JessicaEarl · Answer

Unfortunately racism has been redefined. But if we’re talking about the racism that we grew up with “believing one race is better than the other” than yes, you can believe your race is inferior to other races

PinkMichae · Answer

Sounds like he has mommy issues. I'm guessing his mom is white so he only discriminates against women who remind him of mom. That's the only thing I can think of.

caitycat21 · Answer

That’s called being sexist not racist. If he thinks so derogatorily of white women I guarantee he most likely treats women of color even worst just behind close doors and masquerading as a “preference” racial preferences are bullshit and are always a direct result of fetishization.

maverick2022 · Answer

Yes and it always stems back to some experience they had while young. They were either molested or beat up by someone of their own race as a kid. Guaranteed.

Yes. Hitler was. Jews aren't s race, it's a religion. Jews in Germany were mostly Caucasian (European white) like Hitler was. This Hitler was racist against his own race.
