The problem with racism is bound up with whiteness. Destroy whiteness and you destroy racism. We have largely done that. Open racists are shot down quickly and pushed to the margins as soon as their racism becomes apparent.
What? This doesn't happen at all. In fact, most conservatives in government are quite open about their support of institutions that support systems of institutional racism, even though they'll claim that they aren't racist or are doing what's best for the economy. Pile this with the fact that open racists usually aren't criticised (and even welcomed in some communities), and that social attitudes are becoming increasingly xenophobic out of kneejerk reaction to the current economic crisis.
One of Hungary's largest parties is trying to build walls around fucking Roma communities, and supports 'ethnopluralism' (right-wing happy terms for extreme ethnic segregation). The racism you talk of being destroyed is alive and well.
Even non-racists are marginalized if they do not tow the line, which I whole-heartedly support.
What do you mean by non-racists being marginalised? Shooting people with white skin? Nice to meet you, Pol Pot.
I don't know what anti-racist whites are thinking, but most people of color see anti-racism as an anti-white movement.
Most 'people of colour' see anti-racism as anti-white? You do know that 'people of colour is in itself a blanket term for over half the worlds' population, right? Are you claiming to speak for nearly 5 billion people?
My half-sister is not white skinned and she doesn't see anti-racism as being 'crush all whites'. See, I can make anecdotes too!
And what do you mean by 'anti-white'? The social construct of 'whiteness' and the advantage people within this category have in society, and the historical economic and social repression that polarised Europe in contrast with the rest of the world for many years? If that's the case then I'm totally with you.
But from what I've read, you seem to be implying something else. Something you would expect from the NBPP - Social Darwinism.
After all, nobody in the anti-racist movement is arguing that Japan needs to be more diverse, are they? Hell no.
Where do you get this shit from? People ARE CONSISTENTLY focusing on the massive racialism that occurs in Malaysia, South Korea and Japan. Maybe not in your region, but where I live being against the racial (and often class-based, as in S. Korea) elitism of those countries is a common political position. Racism does not simply extend to the concept of 'whiteness'. It can encompass systematic and social abuse of certain ethnicities by other ethnicities (this can be in groups as well). Examples include the mistreatment of pygmies in central Africa and the marginalisation of Palestinians in Israel. And lets' not forget the modern slavery occurring in the Arabian peninsula with Indian migrant workers.
Racism is prevalent towards people who aren't connected to the political concept of whiteness, but it is most certainly not exclusive with this concept, even in its' institutional form.
'despite being a comedy, there's a lot of truth to this, black people always talking shit behind white peoples back. Blacks don't give a shit about white, why do whites give them so much "nice" attention?'
