Yes, Fox News is racist in hiring only blonde white women to spread their hateful propaganda, and yes, their audience is racist for falling for the lies more readily because they’re being told by a blonde white woman. Congratulations for noticing.
Pointing out that Fox News does racist things to appeal to racists is….racist?
Or are you a white person who’s doing performative “it’s akshully racist to point out when white racists do racist things because you’re pointing out their whiteness which is a race checkmate atheists!”
to add to this: whiteness is seen as the absence of race. a sort of default state for humanity. I don’t think many people believe this anymore (or, at least, not conscientiously) but that’s what those who created the concept of race thought.
racism was created by those same people to justify colonialism and slavery. humans are a cooperative species, so the human mind evolved to not cause pain to your fellow humans. so colonizers invented race, as a way to dehumanize other people, so they wouldn’t feel that discomfort, and could justify their horrors to themselves, to fellow colonizers, and to the people they were colonizing.
that’s why anti-white racism is not a thing: racism was invented by (those who would call themselves) white people, to oppress everyone else. anti-white racism as a concept makes as much sense as anti-men misogyny, or anti-straight homophobia.
This feels like “I can’t be homophobic because I’m not afraid of gay people.” I can’t wait for someone to insist they can’t possibly be racist because their hatred isn’t motivated by pseudoscience.
What about ancient Arab enslavement of black Africans?
“White” isn’t even actually a real thing. It’s a made up in group for conservatives to virtue signal with (in order to garner support for treating non-whites as “lesser” and claiming dominion over them)

On the air on Fox News
…while wearing a cross.
The meme wasn’t ambiguous on any of these points.
Oh fair, I prefer Racoon News myself

anti white racism is not a thing
Yes it is a thing, don’t be stupid. However, This post is not it.
Anti white discrimination is occasionally a thing. Anti white racism is not a thing because white isn’t a race.
By that standard racism isn’t a thing at all. Biologically there are no human races.

You don’t know much about the world outside of the west, do you?
there are other xenophobic means of domination and oppression, but racism is a european invention (that was then spread worldwide through colonialism)
This is historically accurate in the United States
So no one was ever racist to Jewish people prior to white colonialism?
people weren’t racist, but they were absolutely antisemitic
