Racism and white supremacy are not valid viewpoints.

  Which means censorship vectors get to wrap things they want censored as "racist". Soviet censorship vectors were able to wrap dissenting viewpoints as "counter-revolutionary" or "bourgeois" without regard for the consistency of content to the wrapper.

    No, sorry. Racism is pretty damn clear cut.

      So let's say I purposely choose to avoid living in areas that don't have a large percentage of a certain minority on the basis of very alarming statistics. Am I an evil racist for putting my individual life and my family's over the ideal of equality? Note I've been homeless before and that experience exposed me to how people act without a system of 24 hour media propoganda to skew the view of such behavior. It doesn't mean that I paint bona fide individuals with stereotypes but when I'm dealing with aggregates...well call me an evil racist. I'd invite you to put your ideology to the test in a situation where it gets stretched to the point of counter-factual absurdity.

      You want it to be, but in practice it's not. Enforcement of immigration policy is seen as racist by some and not by others, for example. So though _you_ claim to know (because obviously _your_ beliefs are correct), people disagree on this point.

  That well might be so, but when people get the power to decide who is a racist, results degenerate very quickly.
