When all you see is color, everything different is racism.

I'm the whitest white person you'll find, white bread and turkey sandwich. I get screened all the time. Most of the time the agents are not white, WTF would I blame the color of their skin?

Many ICE agents are Latino but it doesn't stop them racially profiling other Latinos.

When it comes to customs & border, it's more about being "ethnically terrorist", which is more so Middle Eastern than Black in US at this particular moment in time.

Generic WASP checking in. I flew regularly for several years until covid and I'd get screened all the time too (about 50% of the time).

Are you seriously pretending that state-sponsored racism is not a thing? In today’s environment?
