[QUOTE]Originally posted by BrandonP: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Djehuti: [qb] ^ It's called the hypocritical crybully phenomenon. You have North Africans like the Egyptians be appallingly racist to Africans from further south (even if its within their own country) but when they enter Europe and get called 'black' or 'darky' or worse, complain about white racism. It's similar to how in North America Mexicans complain about racism towards them and the phrase "dirty Mexican" or stereotypes about them being dumb or backwards while in Mexico it's not uncommon to hear derogatory talk about Hispanics from Central America being called names like "Guatemalteco sucio" (dirty Guatemalan) or "Nicas tontos" (dumb Nicaraguans). So it's hypocrisy at its ridiculousness.[/qb][/QUOTE]That is indeed a thing, but I was thinking more in terms of the "white tears" phenomenon, which (as I understand it) is when someone from a relatively privileged group acts like a more disadvantaged group is somehow oppressing or discriminating against them. A Japanese person in Japan complaining about Koreans hating on Japanese people, when ethnic Japanese clearly occupy a dominant position over Koreans in that country, would be one example of this trend. The way Andumbass speaks about how Black people relate to North Africans, despite the well-documented phenomenon of anti-Blackness in Arabized North African communities, would be another. That said, racism and ethnic chauvinism can and do travel in all directions. I don't think any form of those are OK, even if some groups arguably occupy a more advantaged position in their respective societies than others. [/QB][/QUOTE]
