Is this a shower thought, or you bitching passive aggressively?
People have really lost the plot of this community.
op is having bitter thoughts in the shower
About being pulled up on their racism, no less
Why not both?
Self aware observation is self aware.
Sometimes we have to acknowledge our prejudices.
High level shower thought by a racist person
I disagree.
It makes it the only one that matters (in my community). 😌

Are you in the shower? Bcz it kinda seems like you’re not.
Consider that it’s not Indian people you hate working for or with, but a particular behavior you’ve noticed and are attributing to people being of a particular race, instead of just them doing stuff you don’t like.
Don’t come back with “but why is it only them” or something. Just identify the behaviour and remember that is what you don’t like, not the person’s race specifically.
You get people and habits you don’t like from all cultures; that makes sense, as assholery knows no borders. But if you make it (the things you don’t like, whatever they may be) about race, it’s racist, so stop it. Unless you like the idea of being a racist, which it seems like you don’t.
In fact it makes you a fence rider and a nincompoop.
It kinda does though. i.e. form your own community, put in the effort to keep it neat and tidy and make it how you like it, and then fend off people who want to come in and shit all over your parade without bothering to follow or likely even read the rules.
The very fact that you desire to post something to someone else's community in the first place is evidence of how much more their opinion should matter, by virtue of their hard work put into it. No we are not all the same at all.
That isn’t a better opinion. It’s just power.
You have the identical power.
Not better, but definitely more actionable.

The moderator’s opinion is better if the mod is deleting your racist comments.

Maybe I need a bit more coffee, but I read this as “Although I think I’m feeling like this, I don’t like it, as it makes me feel a bit racist”.

Present an argument to support your accusation.

Well, your own banned comment said you admit you feel “a bit” racist, so I know you are not asking me to present an argument that you’re racist.
Are you… asking me to present an argument that racism is wrong?

Here’s an argument if ur gonna make distinctions bases upon race ur racist. Thus race based dei is racist. If race based dei isn’t racist then negative comments based upon race also aren’t racist. To have one without the other is simply doublethink.
