- kristopolous 10y agoPeople aren't careful with the word racism. Claiming an inherent inferiority of a group of people or advocating for a seperate set of laws to be carved out, that's racism. For instance, police profiling or apartheid are real world, dictionary defined "racist" things. Using offensive language or mentioning someone by they're physical description is not. It's at best rude, but it's not a "racist" act. On the contrary, racism often comes on the backs of calm language with charts and graphs.
