On top of that, often people say racist words not because they really care about skin color, but because its just an easy way to piss people off when they're mad and looking to piss people off.
Whether or not that doesn't count as racism is up for debate. But its similar to the motivations behind trolling, which is more or less just to stir shit up.
- evanlivingston 9y agoI don't think whether that counts for racism is up for debate.
- SamReidHughes 9y agoA better example is how trash talk at the line of scrimmage used to be done in the NFL.
- evanlivingston 9y agoI would hope NFL game tactics wouldn't be used as a analogies for ethics.
- SamReidHughes 9y agoIt's not an analogy. It's a different example where they aren't mad while trying to get in somebody's head.

- randyrand 9y agoI disagree. Therefore its up for debate and you're wrong =) I think to be a racist you actually need to dislike people for their race. Motivation matters. Saying something racially mean only because you want to make them upset and not because you actually care about their race is not racist. Why? Because you don't actually dislike them for their race.
