What you call "clarification" is a textbook example of moving the goalposts in the wild...

Person A didn't use the term"race". Thus, they did not believe that either. However, you charged them with racism by pointing out that they believed t...

No further questions...

So Asians exist... right?

Are you saying that people from asia do not exist?

So you're picking out a group of people that you do not believe there is?

So then, when you use the term "Asian" what on earth are you picking out if not the people from Asia?

So... Asians do not exist on your worldview?

A pointed question... Are you racist?

Imagine person A who does not use the term "race" but hates asian people, and does not think that they should be allowed to live anywhere near person ...

According to your definition, person A is not racist, but person B is.

What is your answer to this?

I want you to directly address my last post.

I'll accept that, for now, you are not claiming that using the term "race" is equal to being racist. You need to make sense of the earlier equivalence...

Not a misrepresentation of what you wrote. Perhaps, what you wrote misrepresented what you think or believe, but that's not my problem. See that? The ...

Imagine person A who does not use the term "race" but hates asian people, and does not think that they should be allowed to live anywhere near person ...

Not all who use the term "race" are using it to justify the devaluation of others. In order to reduce racism, it must be identified. That's part of th...

Devaluing another human based upon their skin color is the problem we call "racism". It need not be identified as such in order to be a problem. Call ...

One need not employ the notion of race in order to devalue another human based upon the color of their skin or their ethnicity.

Devaluing another human based upon their skin color and/or ethnicity will not be corrected by abandoning the term "race". Fucking idiot. The former is...

How else? :smile:

That's the utility.

Kindness isn't always appropriate. When one is attempting to call those fighting against racism racists, all the while claiming that racists are not r...

You're such an idiot sometimes... The semicolon joins all the different things that all need to be present - on that account - to qualify as racism. T...

Impervious to self-contradiction... May be Trump himself, or a minion. What's that blonde's name again? Fairly up to date on fairly private geopolitic...

Notice that little remarkable further qualification? Your definition does not agree with what you mistakenly believe supports you... Toodles!

Shakes head and walks away...

Your definition does not fit the historically accepted use of the term...

My participation here is meant for the reader who may have been misled to think and/or believe that there was a valid meaningful point being made by N...

Earlier I asked you what you called someone who devalues black people based solely upon their being black. You answered "racist". How do you reconcile...

There's quite a bit of irony here. What you've proposed here is not even necessary for one to be racist, let alone sufficient. 1. Some people deny tha...

All anti-racists who believe that there are human races are racist according to your definition.

Thanks for that link. Impressive considerations and precautions taken by the scientists involved to minimize mistaken accounting practices. Based upon...

Not all who believe that there are human races also believe that some races are superior to others. Your definition does not take that into account. S...

Sure. Some folk who oppose racism may not believe in the theory of race. The problem is that others do, and fight against racist ideology(that some ra...

That makes sense to me. However, what doesn't make sense is that both groups satisfy your definition of racism. Thus, you've reached a point where you...

Ok. What do you call people who are fighting against the racist ideology?

The problem with this line of thinking seems clear to me... People have been devalued by others based upon the color of their skin long before it was ...

What do you call people who believe that black people are somehow inferior to white people simply because they are black?

So, all people fighting against the unfair treatment of people based upon their race are racist?

It would follow that one who had no knowledge of biological taxonomy could not be racist. It would follow that all who used such divisions are/were ra...

Don't be such a dumb fuck! There is a long history of what racism is, of how the word is used, of what it refers to, of what it picks out to the exclu...

Appeal to the dictionary? For what. Belief in race is not racism. It's necessary for racism, but not sufficient.

Good. Assuming you - like other reasonable considerate people - want to work on correcting racism, you must realize that it cannot be corrected by den...

Right! You said belief in race is racism. It's not! Racism is devaluing someone based upon race. Belief in race is not racism.

So, after reading through those studies, in addition to relevant links therein as well as other resources regarding the same studies, it seems that st...

All intelligence is existentially dependent upon thought and belief, for it all consists thereof. The ontological description begins when we start loo...

So... All behavioural discontent due to unmet expectations counts as thinking, believing like what has happened is unfair/unjust and/or ought be someh...

Isaac and I understand one another regarding a sense of fairness. No, it's not like physiological sensory perception, although it is existentially dep...
