#Make Racists Scared Again 2026
Share if you want people to know they should be scared to be racist around you 👊🏾
"making them afraid will make them more racist" that's wild to me, because we live in a whole culture of social consequences for antiracism anyway. It is literally safer to be a racist than it is to speak up against it, socially.
Idk about you, but "I'm afraid no one will want to be my friend if I'm a white supremacist" seems like a pretty logical thought process to have, and I wish THAT were the normal and not "I'm afraid my friends will hate me if I tell them they made racist jokes".
It's ironic racism comes from those that fear others. We humans are weird when it comes to the complexities of how we interact with those we see as different. It's why I believe showing kindness to others where it's most appropriate and does the most good helps far more then spreading more hate and anger to those we think deserve it. That's not to say every situation has to be met with kindness or that anger doesn't have its place, just that the end goal should be making everyone feel safe and accepted. Perhaps it's too optimistic a viewpoint, but it's one that keeps me going.
"You're morally better than me."
Since that seems to be what a lot of you really want me to say in response to these "we're all the human race" type responses 👍🏾
Too be clear, I wasn't meaning be nice to the racists. I was meaning more from the viewpoint of helping and being nice to those who need it most. Pushing back against racism is absolutely important and is essential. I'm never meant to come at this topic from a "I am higher than thou" type response. I understand that some people can't be helped or are stuck in their ways. Whether you believe me or not, I do not condone racists or other hateful groups action.
