I don’t know about the rest of Europe, but in Italy the easiest way to spot a true racist asshole™ is to wait for them to say the word ‘race’ at all.

Same in France and I think it’s the same for a big part of Europe, that’s why it’s so weird for us to see american people talking about “races” here.

The EU officially rejects the categorization of human beings into races. Because we learned something from WWII. Whereas US America is downright obsessed with “race” and someone’s descent and origin. 

What’s worse is that they take their concept of “races” and try to apply it everywhere else, which … doesn’t really work all that well (but when has that every stopped US Americans?).

EVERYONE SHOULD READ THIS!

Europeans literally introduced white supremacy to the US & the whole western hemisphere, and censoring the terminology used to discuss racism in Europe certainly hasn’t stopped y’all’s violence, prejudice, and brutality against Romani, Jews, Muslims, European minorities & people of color on your little piece of a continent, but #go off I guess lmao!!

Racist white people in the US say the same exact thing—”talking about race is racist!”—so it’s hilarious to me that white Europeans are clutching onto their colorblind racism as if it’s some special elevating thing. Whites in Mississippi do it, whites in Stockholm do it… In fact, the whites in Mississippi picked it up from you guys in the first place. Come on.

Do y’all think nonwhite Europeans don’t have internet or Tumblr to dispel your ‘colourblind!!’ nonsense? You are definitely asked for race and ethnic group on checklists because that’s, um, how demographics are set up? Who are these white Europeans fooling …

So lemme get this straight, in Europe they have racism all the same but silence the language used to talk about it? Sounds perfect! …for people who are comfortable with the status quo and don’t want to seriously face the issue.
