With my recent post I was trying to ask if there are other people like me who also feel that people seem to focus more and more on skin color and ethnicity in an unhealthy and obsessive way and I thought I'd find some people agreeing with me who also feel uncomfortable and stressed out by this.

But instead the overwhelming response was people trying to justify racism instead of agreeing that it's a bad thing and needs to end. As if they were trying to use every possible argument to bash on me and justify racism.

Why could it be the case that so many people here on Lemmy support racism? In my opinion there is no reason to discriminate someone based on their looks PERIOD!

Apart from against Jews. Lemmy is obsessed with the Jews.
