Am I allowed to call myself an ex racist?
Okay- so let me explain. I(19) have been racist over the past few years. Let me explain the things I’ve done.
Main ones I have are not standing up for people in situation where they had people being racist to them.
This happened 2 times in highschool. All in a classroom setting. I’d hear people being racist on the otherside of the classroom. I’d freeze up, unsure of what to do- when I should have stood up for said people. Especially since I knew both people who did said things- one being my brothers friend, and another being my now ex best friend. I never called them out when I should have. I just briskly thought that she’d change with time, she’d stop calling me homophobic slurs, and stop using them in general, and then it just kept escalating with others at the end of the year and with myself- that I cut her off. I don’t have contact with either individual… although weirdly I am friends with my brothers best friends dad?? Lmao. So far he himself hasn’t shown me any traces of racism, if he does this time I know what to do. But I do realize not standing up for them- was in fact racist in a way.
Next one is my response to specific videos or such regarding race. I’d see videos and co

Trying to be fair, the idea isn’t bad, but the delivery is doing damage Feels like an opening move, not an ending. At least from my perspective.
there’s a gap between the message and the outcome Interested to see the follow-up. That’s just my read on it.
there’s a gap between the message and the outcome which turns this into more of a debate
From where I sit, this feels more about execution than intent Curious how this plays out.
If we’re being honest, the way this is presented changes how it lands Let’s see what happens next. Could be wrong, but that’s how it comes across.
At this point, the wording alone shifts how people read this which is why the comments look the way they do That’s what changes the context. That’s just how it reads to me.
From my side, the main issue seems to be how this is handled and that’s where the disagreement starts We’ll see how people react over time.
Not gonna lie, the way this is presented changes how it lands and that tension shows up immediately That’s what makes this interesting. This could age very differently in a week.
Not gonna lie, this reads stronger on paper than in practice Interested to see the follow-up.
this feels more about execution than intent That part stands out. Others will probably see it differently.
If we’re being honest, the wording alone shifts how people read this and that’s why opinions are all over the place This probably isn’t the last word on it. Others will probably see it differently.
this solves one problem while creating another which turns this into more of a debate This probably isn’t the last word on it.
Without overthinking it, the framing does a lot of heavy lifting here That’s the key detail here. We’ll see how people react over time.

Stepping back, there’s a gap between the message and the outcome
the direction makes sense but the details are messy and that’s why opinions are all over the place Feels like an opening move, not an ending.
Looking at this, this feels rushed rather than thought through Could be wrong, but that’s how it comes across.
From where I sit, the timing matters more than people admit and that’s why opinions are all over the place Feels like there’s more coming here.
the logic is there, but the execution is uneven
this feels rushed rather than thought through and that’s where people will push back Feels like there’s more coming here. At least from my perspective.
Real talk, the follow-through is what will decide this At least from my perspective.

Not gonna lie, this depends heavily on what happens next That part stands out. We’ll see how people react over time.
On the surface, there’s a lot said here but not much clarified
the signal is clear, the strategy less so and that’s what people are responding to
Putting bias aside, there’s a gap between the message and the outcome
Trying to be fair, the direction makes sense but the details are messy This probably isn’t the last word on it. That’s the impression it gives me.
From a practical angle, the signal is clear, the strategy less so which explains why reactions are split
To be fair, the direction makes sense but the details are messy and that’s where it gets complicated

Just reading this, the follow-through is what will decide this and that’s what people are responding to Could be wrong, but that’s how it comes across.
From the outside, the follow-through is what will decide this Feels like there’s more coming here.
On the surface, this feels like a half-step, not a full move That’s the key detail here. Time will tell. That’s the impression it gives me.
this solves one problem while creating another and that’s why this won’t land the same for everyone This could age very differently in a week.

From a practical angle, this comes across more reactive than planned and that’s what people are responding to Others will probably see it differently.
this solves one problem while creating another which makes the reaction pretty predictable That’s what makes this interesting.

From a neutral view, the way this is presented changes how it lands which explains why reactions are split Not convinced this is settled yet.

On the surface, this reads stronger on paper than in practice Hard to say where this lands long term. That’s the impression it gives me.
Without overthinking it, there’s a gap between the message and the outcome which is why this is getting picked apart Hard to say where this lands long term.

Trying to be fair, the intention might be solid, the rollout less so which explains why reactions are split Time will tell.
