Been seeing people misuse the term “internalized” wrt prejudices lately which is. Gonna drive me up the wall if it continues I must say
White people can’t have internalized racism, that’s just being racist. Straight people can’t have internalized homophobia, that’s just being homophobic. Etc etc etc. The entire point of these terms is to describe when oppressed people hate themselves I swear to god words mean things sometimes
I think the term these people are looking for (and failing to find apparently) might be unconscious bias.
^^^ that. That’s a term that exists. Use it
