That’s not how I understand the idea of anti-racism, at least from what I’ve read by people like Ibram X Kendi; I’m not really sure what you’re responding to about fundamentalism
Kendi frames it like this: it’s a contradiction to say “I’m not racist” but then continue to live in a way that perpetuates racial disparity.
In his writing he gives a bunch of interesting examples from his life where he realized he was acting in that way and tried to change.
Maybe you don’t agree with some of those views, but I kind of read your response in this genre of everyone talking past one another. I don’t really see what it has to do with the actual position of anti-racism
