So, let me guess, you're part of this billions of people as well that doesn't experience act of racism or you're just here being a dick?
You do know that central Asian people are part of the billions of people you're referring to here right? I suppose you'd call that vague as fuck too won't you?

never experienced this since I'm not white, like so they're just like testing the waters yeah? interesting.
My mother-in-law does this with my wife all the time. Makes no sense, since she knows where my wife sits on things like that.

Here’s a tip
Most people just say what they are, because most people tend to have pride in their background
Usually it’s trolls who stick with the “I’m a POC” and second note, that phrase always seems to get pulled out when it’s time to be defensive, and usually the person pulling it out is the contrarian on a race discussion
The other note is you came into dudes thread and wanted to argue with him about semantics so he lost patience with you

this is true, either individuals with anime avies are ultra progressive or insanely racist -- there doesn't seem to be a middle ground online.
Thinking people immigrating are a problem in any country
I hate that dumb term lol. “Not white” is too broad to mean anything
Yeah, I've witnessed all of these. People around here love assuming I'm a racist asshole.
Here's another easy one:
Fair enough. I'm east Asian that got fucked with a lot growing up in a minority area of a major city, and it includes getting singled out as the only asian kid in the area and I got mugged and assaulted often. I wasn't trolling the OP. I only wanted clarification on what instances when people are saying, "Islam is not a race" and used that to justify racists acts.Here’s a tip

To be honest, I still don't get it. But, whatever, I'll just take it as one of those things that I just don't understand at the moment and hopefully it will come to me in the near future.
Like the above, this is fair. I'll be more explicit next time someone accuses me of being racist.

Literally every anti-immigration right wing movement in Europe for the past 20 years? I was willing to give you benefit of the doubt at first but at this point I think you're just purposely trolling me.

I'm really not trolling you. If you're describing Islamophobia, then I 100% understand what you mean. I just never heard, or at least I don't recall, people saying "islam is not a race" and then blatantly doing racist shit against central Asians.
It’s very simple: Muslims are an extremely racially coded minority group in the US, despite the fact that Muslims are not a race. People who use “Islam is not a race” as an argument do so to excuse their bigotry toward that racially coded group as not racist by virtue of that technical distinction. The example of Sikhs getting attacked after 9/11 is raised to show that Sikhs and Muslims are racially/ethnically coded similarly, despite being different religions — hence revealing the true issue, which is in fact rooted in racial/ethnic bigotry rather than religious doctrine.
I really do appreciate you taking your time to write out this lengthy explanation. If I'm getting this correctly, people that say "islam is not a race" is saying "I cannot be racist, because the Muslim religion isn't a race" by means of technicality/semantics? So, this is a means to do racists acts because muslims are racially coded as a central Asians/brown middle-eastern/south asian folks? I think I got it from your description.
Sorry to the OP that it took me a bit to understand.
You can tell a mile away since they almost all wear red hats, or have a trump bumper sticker. It's never been easier to know.

I heard that one irl except they referred to them as a gangster.

Thank you for your input though and I'll keep it in mind."
"I want information from all sides."
"I've been subject to racism, too. So I shouldn't be able to have a voice in this discussion?"

When they’re white & the only people at a protest regarding racial injustice with a megaphone.
When anyone white talks about how they’re 1/100th Native American. This one especially annoys me because both my mom’s parents actually had a Native American parent, and I’m not Native American. People need to stop claiming shit they know nothing about because they have some weirdly racist obsession with trying to distance themselves from their whiteness.
