At which point in time did we normalize saying "I hate/don't want to be near white people"? It's blatantly racist.

Why are not these people kicked out from the platforms? Why aren't corporates rightfully censoring them?

No financial incentive to do so. Nobody is organizing to boycott over bigotry towards majority groups, and news media won't cover it. There's very little upside for corporations to censor them. On the flip side bigotry towards minority groups will get tons of media coverage and potentially some significant boycotts if they do nothing about it.

Because wokeness in tech is super high and they actually applaud all this in the name of DEI.

When we stood and watched BLM burn cities to the ground, murder innocent bystanders, and loot as a form of reparations and called it peaceful protests.

Seems like wayyyy too many people on this thread are confusing "racism" and "prejudice." https://www.aclrc.com/myth-of-reverse-racism

You can't just redefine words and assume everyone is going to accept you new definition.

Especially when it is this self serving.

Do a little research before attempting to flame someone. I'm not redefining anything.

Trotsky's definition is the original one. The idea of "racism" comes from Marx's idea of class struggle and we should stop using the word.
