• That's right, no one would ever criticise casual racism because they give a shit about people who aren't them, they are just trying to look better.

    FFS.

  • they are just trying to look better

    This is true, not because being against racism is a bad thing, but because deciding that somebody is a racist based on one humorous comment on the internet is a huge leap, presuming to see a motive more malign than simple good natured fun.

    People who aren't us are funny - they look funny, they sound funny, and they have funny customs (and indeed costumes). We love them because they are also almost exactly the same as us in all other respects, including the fact that they find the way we look, speak, act and dress humorous.

    I'm not saying the poster is a racist, but that post was racist af.

    Dude, we love you on this forum because you know lots of stuff about bikes and are happy to share that info with everyone. But defending people being racist and having a go at people who think racism is bad isn't going to help.

    Try to learn a bit about the kind of shit that people who aren't like you have to deal with.
