re: #158 Obdicut

I not only can define racism, I already did. Do you have a problem with my definition of racism?

Which seems to be:

No, it makes it very easy to define a racist; a racist is someone who thinks race exists. A worse racist is one who thinks that race exists and is important to talk about a lot.

That is an entirely useless definition. It’s obviously not the one Charles uses. For example, if Newt was to call me a Jungle Bunny, Charles would claim that Newt was racist, which by most people’s thinking would likely be true. By your definition, unless Newt “thinks race exists,” there’s absolutely nothing racist about his comment.

You know, Wikipedia has a lot to say on the matter of race and racism, and this doesn’t seem to jive with your lame definition.

So yeah, I have several problems with your definition.
