(22,912 posts)virtually impossible to express in public, either in person or on traceable social media, without those who engage in it paying a very heavy social price for their racism. Trump's presidency in particular has emboldened racists to expose their bigotry and white privilege in public. They think they can get away with it. It is our (and I mean white folks like me specifically) sacred obligation to make sure that they don't. They must be humiliated, they must be immediately subject to fierce and unrelenting blow back. They should forfeit their jobs, they should be shunned by all those who know them who are not similar racists themselves.
It as to become widely completely socially unacceptable to be exposed as being a racist. That may not cure those who are so infected already, but it will help halt the spread of this deadly social virus.
