> Racism used to mean that there was a belief [...] Yes, the key word is "used". And the point why it isn't is because we pay now more attention to the target of racism than the perpetrator. > You need to look at if there was an intent or a conscious prejudice. Or alternatively, you need to look at what happens to the people being subjected to racism. Practically no one wants to be seen as a racist anymore. Intent and conscious prejudice is now hidden. In my eyes, that is progress. We move forward from assigning guilt to trying to improve the situation for people subjected to racism. I kind of doubt, that it will mean, more people would be happy or neutral being called a racists.
