Taking someone else's yogurt out of the fridge and murder are both wrong, but I'm far more concerned about the addressing the latter than the former.

It doesn't say that it's right or okay, just silly to compare the two as if they're the same.

Yes, you're right, one thing is worse than the other, but they're still the same thing

Racism is racism.

You can't say you want racism to stop by making racist remarks. If you really want discrimination to stop, be it for race, color, gender, sex, preferences, whatever, then just stop being racist first. Stop it all.

You can't just be racist to other and say "well I'm justified, because your kind has treated me worse", because like that it'll never stop
