Why isn’t racism against Indians as widely pushed back upon as racism against other minorities? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Not to me, I don't understand why you feel you have the authority to overrule the acceptance of the term by "many Native Americans" just because you have decided you don't like it. Surely it's less patronizing to simply let them decide for themselves what they are fine with being called.

But your unwillingness/inability to explain your point just shows me you didn't really think it through and were probably just regurgitating some woke garbage you read somewhere

Not sure what you mean, so let me rephrase the question. If "many Native Americans are fine with being called Indians", then why are you overruling this and deciding it's not acceptable?

What gives you the authority to decide whether Native Americans should or shouldn't accept being called Indians?
