hot take on whites and racism 

White people don't need to apologize for racism if they didn't do anything racist, and didn't facilitate or enable racism. Other people's racism is not their fault.

@realcaseyrollins Does anyone really do that? This is not a hot take I hope.

@vnarek

I've seen a fair amount of people attacked today on the grounds of being white, yea.

@realcaseyrollins

@freemo @realcaseyrollins Where? I never saw anybody demanding white people should apologize for racism of other whites. Did something happen today?

@vnarek

Many people seem to react that way. Earlier today I saw a user arguing pretty much exactly that.

@realcaseyrollins

@freemo @vnarek More specifically I'm seeing white people in their #Instagram stories apologizing for the racism found in society, even though they aren't racists.

@realcaseyrollins @freemo If that happens then its a cringe for sure, but I hope most of the people would agree with your sentiment.
