How much assistance in life does someone need to lose out on before they are no longer considered racist.

If you say "all whites are racist" to me, a white person, to may face, then you are calling me a racist. Period end of discussion gently caress you. I don't feel "oppressed" by it, I feel you're a lovely person. If I have a group of people all saying "all white people are racist" to my face then that group is calling me a racist. I would prefer people not call me racist, just as black people would prefer me to not call them thugs or criminals and middle eastern folks would have me not call them terrorists. "Not everyone does that poo poo" isn't a good excuse because it doesn't take everyone or even a majority doing it to poo poo things up, as we saw on November 2016. How many people stayed home because "both sides are bad"? How many people were and are just demoralized by being told that they were the source of all evil and decided that nothing they did would ever be good enough so why even bother? Because I actively avoid that poo poo and yet I see it every other day on facebook. It's not gonna stop me from voting for the most progressive candidate every time, but it does make me worry that my less willful friends will be less likely to vote, or more likely to be swayed by "hey it's not your fault, what we need is more conservatism to heal what ails us!"

tl;dr: don't say all X are Y no matter what X and Y are because it's both hardly ever true and it only leads to more divisiveness in a time where that's the absolute last thing we need.

i'm sorry that you had to find out that you're a racist this way

Did someone actually call you a bad person, or did they say something about institutional racism or white privilege and you kneejerked that straight into a personal affront because the most important thing going on right now is your feelings and how this effects you.
"All white people are racist."
"When have you ever heard me say something racist?"
"Well, I'm sure you think racist things even if you didn't say them!"
And at that point I just quit talking to her since it was a thrice-weekly tantrum about how some not-exactly-like-her group was victimizing her by existing at all.

I'm not saying I'm not a bad person because I totally am, but I am not racist, sexist, or homophobic. You can hate me all you want, I don't give a poo poo. Just hate me for actual things about me, not dumb bullshit. And on a more general level, don't cry about being stereotyped and then proceed to stereotype everyone else. That's dumpster-tier hypocrisy and a great way to get a lot of people to disregard your whole platform.

You are racist, sexist, and homophobic; everyone is at some level. You may not be part of the klan but the ideas you've been fed all your life subconsciously affect your decisions because society is set up that way. People want to make it simple but it's really complex.

Because they can get away with it. Same reason when you see some crazy person with some bizarre obsession 99% of the time it's a white person. Their privilege lets them be able to get away with being crazy to a far greater level than a person of color.
