Did I say racism doesn't exist? Cut the crap with the intellectually dishonest strawman building. All I said was that I disagree with the use of the word "racist" in this case. And, for the record, I understand that there are textbook definitions that would support the use of that label in this case. I don't agree with those definitions. More on that later.
To me, the most important thing we can do is encourage dialog and debate. The best way to do that is to fight intellectual bullying where one group attempts to establish a high ground of some form (moral, intellectual and so on) from which they attempt to silence those who disagree with them.
Did I accuse you of saying racism doesn't exist? No, I didn't.
Here's what you said:
"But, you know what, if people believe racism is still a problem..."
which is another way of saying "racism is no longer a problem". You can't deny that.
to which I responded
"racism is still a problem whether you want to believe it or not"
Arguing that racism is no longer a problem is moronic. Admitting it exists, while arguing it's no longer a problem, is even worse. Because I'm sure the people effected by its existence would argue that it's still a problem.
Lastly,
Regarding your definition of racism, it's ironic that you want to encourage discussion but choose to make that much more difficult by refusing to accept the defined language.
