Yes. That is racist and its unfortunate and I hate hearing that kind of crap from either side. I'm not arguing that racism goes both ways.

But we do forget that there is an unspoken privilege to being white in our society. Of being from the dominant group. Especially if you're male and come from wealth and privilege. That's all im saying.
