Racism is treating people differently because of their race.
An example would be changing college admission criteria because too many highly intelligent Asians are taking spots away from less stellar black applicants.
Of course this overt racism was cloaked in invented and non-sensical metrics like class diversity and inclusion, but it's just old fashioned racism by another name.
I have one. For all those of us who did not like Obama's policies, we were all called racist because he is half black.
You Liberals are so obsessed with the color of one's skin you couldn't comprehend people had an issue with his policies, not his skin color. It exposed Liberals for the pure racists they are.
We don't like the same Biden policies.
When Moscow Mitch, the leader of the Republican Party says "The single most important thing we want to achieve is for President Obama to be a one-term president", that eliminates the cover of "we don't like his policies". There was never any interest in compromise, creating jobs, lowering the debt, etc. It was all about making sure the black guy didn't over stay his welcome.
And if you think the election of Donald Trump (the epitome of white privilege, mediocrity, and racism) wasn't a direct result of the Obama years you're really lost. David Duke and the other 70 million people who voted for Trump (the 1st time) had no issues with the obvious racist tenor of his "Birther" accusation against Obama. Obviously had no issues with Trump putting out a full page ad to have 5 black and brown boys executed for a crime they were fully exonerated of (and he hasn't apologized for his obvious and racist error to this day). Those 70 million people had no problem with the fact that Trump had been sued for housing discrimination and the list goes on.
I mean really....when the KKK, the Poor Boys, Oath Breakers and various other white supremacist and Nazi groups feel at home in YOUR Party....at YOUR rallies....and considers the person YOUR party nominated (and eventually elected) for President as their leader who they take direction from ("stand back and stand by")...common sense should make you wonder why?
Why do these groups feel comfortable setting up shop in the Republican party? Its because the Republican party as a whole is racist. They support racist candidates and they support racist policies and they clearly don't care about anyone who isn't white and rich.

And you don't think the democrats wanted Reagan, Bush and Trump to be one term presidents? We have a split federal government right now, and the Democrats have not compromised on anything. In fact, they want to use VP Harris as a way to divide government and ram thru the creation of two more states, and add four more justices to the SCOTUS because they DO NOT want to compromise to gain political tyranny.
If it's not racist, it's toxic masculinity.
Or white supremacy.
Or "Karens".
Or Feminazies
Or (pick your outrage of the day).
How's this for and outrage? Some women at work told me a friend if hers went in for a handout and was told she couldn't get one because she was white. I suggested the dumb ***** may not know how to fill out the forms. Why do these slackers think I want to hear their racist manufactured outrage?

What, exactly, is inherently racist about that ad? What, exactly, makes you think that Mitch McConnell wanted Obama to be a one term president over the color of his skin? And if David Duke is racist, how does that automatically paint every other supporter of President Trump as racist? Oh, BTW, rich folks, corporations, etc., get sued all the effen time. Why? Because bottom feeders know they have deep pockets. How many of those supposed 'housing discrimination' lawsuits did Trump lose?
I guess you haven't seen how many folks 'of color' are members of the Oathkeepers and Proud Boys. The two head guys of the Proud Boys are not white. I work with a guy with Mexican heritage who is an Oathkeeper. You really need to study these things for yourself and not just go with every soundbite you're fed.
Do you even know what real racism is? Real racism is fire hoses. Dogs. "Whites Only" signs. "Colored to the back of the Bus" signs. Hanging black people and their white supporters. High ranking politicians being open members of the KKK. Which many Democrats were, BTW.
But, I understand. You sound just like Rachael Maddow. Or is it Don Lemon. Perhaps Anderson Cooper? Nope, just a mix.
p.s. Spoiler alert. The folks who are within say the Oathkeepers, Proud Boys, three percenters, etc., who rally for the most racism/violence are actually FBI, ATF, or some other federal agent(s). It has been that way for decades. Just ask Randy Weaver. He was talked into sawing off that fateful shotgun by an ATF agent.
