    That’s literally the exact same thing. They don’t have a criminality problem as a people, they have a profiling problem and an inability to be seen as equal when looking for work. The only thing perpetuating the stereotype is the widespread acceptance of the stereotype. It is the exact same systemic racism as every other kind. You are indeed perpetuating racism against them.

    It only doesn’t feel like racism to you because it’s the opinion you hold.

    But your words are the exact same words, for the exact same reason that other racists use them.
