The real issue is threefold in nature: definitions of racism have and are changing rapidly, secondly its not any personal (or dictionary) definition that counts but a kind of collective acceptance of a definition which carries the most weight, and thirdly, if someone says they are offended or says that it is actually racism, then they should be listened to. It might not be a problem now, but it could be.
