Racism is making decisions based upon race … pretty damn simple.
But that means that “anti-racists” who attempt to balance out the races (while actually attempting to eliminate one at a time), are in fact racists. Of course they see themselves as saints, thus “good racists” … much like “good Nazis”.
So checking a box on a form to indicate one’s race is racist?
As is a doctor choosing the best medical treatment and/or nutritional blood balance for any given patient.
As is specifying the appearance of a criminal suspect.
As is all of the lying to the population, playing hypnosis games, and psychological ploys concerning races so as to manipulate the population toward a chosen racial design.
Some people must be racist in order to honestly complete their honest job. But the issue is and has always been those who are racist by prejudgement and/or behind the scenes so as to manipulate a population (presuming, lying, deluding).
Presumption, prejudice and population manipulation are the issues, not the racism itself. The same problems arise in far more than merely race issues. Pointing to racism as the evil in society is like pointing to honesty as the evil in society. You have to lie in order to do it.
