Not only are you wrong.
But you’re proud of it.
How interesting.
Leaving aside the astronomical amount of literal lynchings of black people this year alone...
We should also consider that your entire point is to say that “racism exists” but bringing along a very white caveat and mantra that the people suffering from racism should get over their status, and the egregious behaviours still holding them back on a minute-by-minute basis.
And to basically be grateful that they’re not being lynched, abused, herded and profiled at rates which compare to decades ago.
Which, again, isn’t even true. They are. You wouldn’t know because you’re ignorant to it and avoid actually looking into it, instead of ranting meagre ramblings of terrible opinion, rather than the uncomfortable truth.
Edit: to the people claiming it doesn’t exist at the same level, what are your sources?
None, obviously. But the rhetorical assists in highlighting your hogwash.
Final edit: 60k people voted for an actual neo-Nazi in California during the congressional elections a while back.
60k unabashed Neo-Nazis voting for an openly neo-Nazi candidate. In one state alone.
Your nonsense isn’t supported statistically, allegorically, hypothetically or in reality.
Racism doesn’t just exist. And it isn’t any less harmful in 2020 as it was 50 years ago.
Have a day off and get a grip.

There's a certain amount of irony having white people lecture about racism in America where the Native population was almost wiped out of existence.
