Do you not normally? It must be sad being you forums poster down with slavery.

There was a time when I didn't but I realize now that I was an idiot in my younger years (still am an idiot... just figuring a few things out)

I sure wish that people didn't collapse the gradient of bias -> prejudice -> racism into just "racism".

It's like socialism. People love to hate it, but if you ask them to define it, suddenly the room gets quiet.

That's pretty goddamned racist of you.

It's actually not but who the gently caress cares about what racism actually means, right?

Just call him a racist and pat yourself on the back, job well done.

I guess it's silly for me to complain that nobody has the slightest clue what racism means when none of you know what race means either.

Racism is confusing mutable behavior with immutable characteristics like skin color.

Nope. Maybe next quarter sign up for a Race and Gender class.

Propose an alternate definition. I'm too old and have spent too much time on campus for more undergrad liberal arts indoctrination. I'm not going back unless to teach.

How can you tell if someone is racist or not if the racism of their speech and actions is indexed to the racism of their character?

You look at the character of the person making the speech and actions. I know, it's a lot to take in. Deep breaths, we'll get through this together.
