> are only equivalent if you evaluate those statements without a social and historical context This is presupposed by moral relativism, which can disintegrate the whole conversation incredibly quickly if we're not careful. I think that most people would agree that truth can exist outside of a given context. To argue that all truth requires context is a _very_ slippery slope that most aren't truly committed to. With that being said, something is racist regardless of who says it. There isn't a differentiation based on any sort of perceived, favored group. It's incredibly difficult to be consistent with the opposing stance.
