      I still can’t believe his cartoon got cancelled due to reverse racism… No, seriously, I can NOT believe that he actually says that shit.

        I can’t stand that term. “Reverse Racism” implies that Racism is supposed to go a specific direction. Anyone who uses it is Racist themselves.

        It’s just Racism. Like “de-evolution”. It’s just evolution numb-nuts!

          I’ve never thought about it but you’re right, anyone using that term is immediately telling on themselves.

          I’ve always understood it to mean racism as a response to racism, like fighting fire with fire. You’re not alone in your interpretation though, which is why it’s such an unpopular term
