Topic: SJW thinks those who commit genocide and aren't white are really innocent

See this folks. If you're black or Asian you can literally get away with killing 10 million people if social justice ruled.http://this-is-cthulhu-privilege.tumblr.com/post/76875866483
Hitler was right about 1 thing. Aryans are different than all other races. Whites are different than all other races. The white race evolved differently from all PoC races.
Whites came from the European continent,
PoC from Asia and Africa.
Where PoC races have thrived and created, the white…
Its almost like this has been said before. Just change the racial terms and there was a man 80 years ago saying the exact same things.
You fucking white people just love comparing PoC to Hitler. Hitler is your legacy you racist little fuck.
Oh, is Hitler not to your liking? Maybe a PoC genocidal lunatic will be better tailored to your idiotic taste.
Bernard Munyagishari: Black Hutu that played a major role in the Rwandan genocide.
Georges Rutaganda: Rwandan hutu militia leader that helped carry out the rwandan genocide.
Augustin Bizimungu: Rwandan general that trained soldier to carrie out the genocide.
Colonel Théoneste Bagosora: Played a key role in the rwandan genocide.
How about Pol Pot, who led the Khmer Rouge in committing the Cambodian Genocide? Killing 25 percent of the Cambodian population.
Oh, remember that time when those cute little Middle Eastern Turks committed the Armenian genocide? Killing 1.5 million Armenians.
Oh, while we’re at it, lets bring up the Japanese war crimes during the Second World War.
The Japanese PoC that committed crimes of such brutality that it shocked the Nazis.
The Japanese killed over 10 million Chinese, Filipino, Korean and Indochinese civilians.
Maybe one of those groups of PoC racist is more to your liking, would you like me to name more?
Interesting how all these PoC were accused, tried and convicted in white courts by white people. All the “evidence”, gathered by whites. And most of all, it was whites that carried out the sentences. But I bet you cant see that past your privilege, can you?

We have yet to be held accountable for our genocide in the Americas, our apartheid regimes, our dehumanisation-based slave trades, our centuries of plundering and burning and starving everyone who gets in our way. You can fucking quit the self-righteous shit until someone reverses all the atrocities we've committed in the past three millennia.

No, we aren't born guilty. This is passive participation in oppressive structures, not original sin.

In the context of white-dominated society, you'd be hard-pressed to find a space in which your white privilege is entirely moot. :v

But what's wrong with privilege? The country I live in was built by whites for 1000s of years. A Japanese man will have Asian privilege in his home country.

It is original sin, though. The words are different but the mechanics are the same: being born white means you have to repent of the sins of your forefathers and constantly beg forgiveness. Even if your ancestors were free of egregious racist actions, you still bear the guilt, shame, and responsibility for all white peoples ancestors ever.

It isn't, though! It isn't a shame thing. It's a matter of recognising that terrible things were done and that they still have continued effects that you might be complicit in. Accountability for atrocities where the damage has been wholly repaired is generally not sought — people only go after us because we keep harming and harming and harming and harming and harming.

How is it different? You're couching it in sociological terms but it breaks down to: your ancestors did a bunch of bad shit*, you were born in sin, and you need to repent of the sins of your ancestors and beg forgiveness.
Now, you can and should repent and seek forgiveness for your own sins. But I'm not going to beat myself up and agonize over whether my great great great great grandfather's second cousin twice removed was captain on a slave ship**
Yes, I recognize that terrible things were done. The best I can do is try to make sure they don't happen again and to be unprejudiced in my own life. But I'm not born in sin, either sociological or religious.
*Or someone else's did: all white people are responsible for all white atrocities, globally and eternally.
**I'm making this up: I've only traced my genealogy back to the turn of the 20th century but given how everyone's related it wouldn't surprise me if something like that was true.

Original sin was one apple.
White dominance is centuries of doing the same shit over and over again while telling the people who are getting fucked over that it's getting objectively better, and then dismissing them when they tell us that we're fucking wrong.

The answers I generally get from people actually affected by racism fall in the range between "not at all" and "yes, but it's still fucked up".

This is what one would expect on any topic. No one thinks race relations in America are perfect but they are better than 1776.
> Ask if you are.
Okay, I'll ask: am I?

Ask someone other than a fucking white Canadian. Like, legit go to Tumblr, and ask this on a really verbose, somewhat non-hostile anti-racist blog.

That was needlessly angry. You didn't specify whom I should ask and also you implicitly call me a racist by telling me not to ask a white person. What if I fuck over and dismiss everyone regardless of color?

Furthermore, how would someone who doesn't know me in real life be able to answer that? They could say I oppress and exploit people simply by existing as a white male (which is, by definition, a racist and sexist claim) but I dont see how someone on a blog who doesn't know me could answer that.
