You spelled "white racist Trump supporters" wrong. The media, Biden, and many on this site seem to think those are the ones responsible.

I don't think you know what racism means. Blacks in American don't have the power to be racist. They can be prejudice. In order for blacks to be racist they have to have the power to actually control a lot of stuff to help keep white people down.

This is the definition from Merriam Webster:

the systemic oppression of a racial group to the social, economic, and political advantage of another;
a belief that race is a fundamental determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race; a political or social system founded on racism and designed to execute its principles

Sure -- you have a right to -- you are entitled but then you are ASKING for a response.

Don't do it.

Agreed, and it looks like that might have been the case in this video. Yet there are video after video of people that were keeping to themselves getting accosted. And I'm sorry, screaming obesities at people isn't protesting.

The Merriam Webster definition of the word racism has been changed to fit the social justice narrative.

The left has literally changed the meaning of a vital word in our national social debate to better serve it's agenda. If that is your agenda, this devolution in to Newspeak will seem doubleplusgood to you, I'm sure, but in a language where definitions are fluid in the short term, words mean nothing.

We know what racism used to mean, but we may not know what it means in the moment because that can now change on a whim.
