Let us use that word in a sentence:
Harvey Weinstein was a consistent rapist
Lance Armstrong was a consistent cheat
Trump is a consistent bigot
You are a consistent pathetic coward

apparently he needs more than half a century of evidence to come to a conclusion
Donald Trump’s long history of racism, from the 1970s to 2020
Trump has repeatedly claimed he’s “the least racist person.” His history suggests otherwise.

Most definitely. That's why I said I understand you and
KHUFU
's definition.But I actually think that having such a broad definition lets a lot of truly vile racists (Klan members, neo-nazis, etc.) off the hook because you lump them in together with random white sneakerheads on here.

Not sure how (Klan members, neo-nazis, etc.) are being let off the hook.
What does "being let off the hook" even look like / mean?
My questioning came from you saying INTENT is what determines whether or not someone is racist.
Since we live in a racist society/system, a person doesn't have to have the INTENT of being a racist and still (through social conditioning/engineering) view Black folks as inferior.

It lets them off the hook because based on your definition every white person is a racist.
Since it is so broad it essentially becomes meaningless.

"There is no mistaking the impact your rhetoric had on the situation, and it is the inflection point for me."

Based on my definition I do not know whether he is or not. But it is certainly fair to come to the conclusion that he is based on the things he's said.

YOU have your own definition and qualifications.
So how do you NOT know if he is or isn't?
I am confused.

Broad ‘eh? Under the definition that you are using, Black people can be deemed racist as well. Under the definition I am using, the one originally used by Webster’s BEFORE they changed it, narrowed the definition to those who live with the privilege of being white. So who’s actually using a broad definition? This is where things get a bit murky with you, and why these dudes get so funky with your purpose.

So there can't be LEVELS to the racism?
Just like there are levels to everything else?
Again, what does "Letting them off the hook" really mean/look like.
Are those people NOT still viewed as suckas anymore.
Letting off the hook was a funny phrase to use man.

Because I'd need to know his intent and whether or not he feels like he is superior based on his race. I don't know those things.
I know he's ignorant and I know he uses racist rhetoric. Which is why I said I understand coming to the conclusion.

Y’all derailing this thread with garbage. How the hell have y’all not blocked that bozo? Either he’s trolling for attention or he’s dumb.

Fair enough. I should add to my definition that you can't be black and be a racist. I figured that we already agreed on that part.
