There’s so many layers to racism, most of us are probably subconsciously racist on some level, and I’m not just talking about us ‘Whites’ vs the world, I’m mean every single race of people probably hold some subconscious racism towards all the other races. We’re too tribal & naturally animalistic for that not to be true. The same instincts are buried within us all, it just depends if something along the way triggers those feelings to come to the surface.
I don’t know if Morrissey is acting out those instincts, I mean your actions define you. And he’s said some very questionable things about other races. We, including myself, apologise for him. I mean, is he an ‘aggressive’ racist? No, he’s not gonna go out in the middle of the street and call a black guy a n*****. But he’s aligned himself with a racist party. And they are racist, to deny that is just brainless. I’d say he’s not racist but his actions are, so call him naive, stupid, I dunno how to explain his recent actions.
