Note that anti-racist doesn’t mean “Racist against the race that isn’t currently the victim”, and it doesn’t mean “giving the targeted population special privileges in unrelated fields, to make up for it”. It means “Calling out all prejudice/hate when it happens, and addressing and reversing systemic biases that keep the underprivileged people underprivileged”
If one can’t agree with this description of being anti-racist, they’re either not helping bring about the equality they may claim to want, or they’re actually just a racist themselves and lack either empathy, perspective, or both
