1. La Conexión Indisociable: Racismo y Sexismo como Sistemas Gemelos.
Muchos posteos destacan que el racismo y el sexismo no son problemas separados, sino que están profundamente interconectados, reforzándose mutuamente como pilares fundamentales de las estructuras patriarcales y de supremacía blanca.
- It’s amazing how closely intertwined sexism and racism are. *not amazing, actually.
- Racism and sexism are intrinsically intertwined. We cannot break down racism without breaking down sexism. We cannot break down sexism without breaking down racism.
- Sexism and racism are evil twins, like denny's and laquinta - when you see one, look around a bit and you will see the other.
- I have never one time seen racism without its conjoined twin, sexism. Never.
- That's because it's intrinsic to the patriarchy as a whole, sexism and racism are often two sides of the same coin.
2. El Debate sobre la Gravedad: ¿Qué Es Peor, el Racismo o el Sexismo?
Una parte significativa de la conversación gira en torno a la comparación de la gravedad del racismo y el sexismo, con opiniones contundentes desde diferentes perspectivas, particularmente de mujeres de color y mujeres blancas.
- As a woman of color, i absolutely agree that sexism is worse than racism. Men of color only feel the racism, but they still feel above women of color.
- The white women who argue that sexism is worse than racism are straight-up lying. And they know they're lying.
- Lol i think that people who say sexism is worse than racism have no idea how racism literally changes what it's like being a woman.
- His response was sexism has far deeper roots than racism & it will be harder to eradicate.
- Fellow white women, do not do this. There is no fucking way sexism is worse than racism. Sit the fuck down and shut the fuck up, please and thank you.
- I don't believe racism and sexism are similar. We haven't really seen women lynched except if they were witches. I just don't think you can rightfully make that distinction. Racism, the purest, wants eradication. Sexism i think just seeks dominance.
3. La Intersección: La Experiencia de las Mujeres de Color.
Los posteos abordan con frecuencia la opresión única que enfrentan las mujeres de color, donde el racismo y el sexismo se combinan para crear una forma distinta de discriminación conocida como "misogynoir".
- Racism is bad sexism is bad whats worse is being a black woman and having to deal with both, everyday.
- The particular blend of racism *and* sexism i’d say. There’s a very specific intersection of “black” and “woman” that makes a lot of people just not actually hear what’s said, but rather what they’ve decided she’s said.
- She's right. Sexism is a huge problem in our country, and when combined with racism against black women and other woc it's a horrific problem.
- It’s not fair to put all of the blame on racism. Sexism also had a starring role. Misogynoir will be the death of us all.
- Okay, but since misogynoir is actually a huge thing, nothing will get better until everyone admits that racism/sexism are related.
4. Dinámicas de Poder y Complicidad.
La conversación también explora cómo diferentes grupos navegan estas estructuras de poder, destacando casos en los que individuos pueden pasar por alto una forma de opresión para beneficiarse de otra.
- Racism beats self interest for a lot of white women. Sexism beats self interest for a lot of black and latino men.
- White women who put up with the sexism to benefit from the racism, and black men who put up with the racism so they can be sexist.
- Most white women overlook sexism to benefit from racism, and now some minority men overlook racism because they are sexist.
- Yes. Bit unfortunately the sexism is maintained by the majority of white women who are there because of their racism. See how that works?
- The "i can excuse sexism, but i draw the line at racism" crowd when it turns out that the sexism comes with racism.
