I don't think either is racism. You can criticize inhumane practices of any geographical region.

If you criticize black people for what African regimes do, that would be racism. But that's not in any way what they did.

He’s not really racist tho. How many journalists have been killed by Middle Eastern countries? A lot.

Syria and iraq kill 63 journalists a year for the past decade in MENA region. That’s over 850 people.

It’s not racism if it’s true. Applies to Africa and the Middle East and multiple others.

I can think of many things that are true that would be called racist if someone pointed them out.

I'm not saying the topic at hand is or isn't; I'm just saying that what you claimed is incorrect.

edit: Jesus fuck reddit, you certainly seem to not have a grasp of what even you think is and isn't racism. Be better.

TIL that criticizing a region of the world for inhumane practices is "racism".
