> Can we just stop with these bullshit word games? I'm so tired. > Describing a form of legal discrimination (in this case, affirmative action) as "racial discrimination" is not an argument. Or even an invitation to discussion. To me, your second sentence seems more like word games than calling it racial discrimination is. Sure, I can somewhat rationalize it as not being intended to be racist. In the end AA still results in treating people different based on race. Which, to me, fits the textbook definition of racism.
