That explains why you always smell like Kimchi. =running away=
I wonder if it smells as bad as Durrian?

If I am called a “racist,” I will consider that a fighting word, and probably get into a fight, even though I don’t like to fight.
I was called a “honky” once by a guy of the Mexican persuasion, and I asked him, nicely, not ever call me a “honky” again.
He, of course, did, and I told him that if he ever called me a “honky” again, I was going to knock him on his ass.
A few weeks later, he did, and I did.
He never called me a “honky” again!
I guess that what I am saying is that there are “fighting words.” People HAVE to understand that the “FReedom of speech” clause of the US Constitution DOES NOT give a person the right to mouth off and not have to suffer the consequences of said mouthing off!

She is actually close to something.
Yes, everyone is racist, as she defines racism.
And if *everyone* is racist, it does not matter, because we cannot escape it.
If you are not willing to fit into Western civilization, and meet the requirements, which are broad, wide open, and welcoming, compared to all others.
Too Bad.

No comparison. I’ve been on a bus full of people who just had kimchi for breakfast but Durrian is much worse.

Being aware of race does not equal racism. We are all aware of gender, but that doesn’t mean we are all sexist.

And to translate, ‘i am bad but you are badder so only you have to stop being bad. I do not.’
This is liberal logic.

Since everybody's now a racist, is it still considered a bad word?
Since we crackers never got our own hyphenated American moniker, we should go with Racist-American.
And remember, diversity is our strength. Don't hate on my community.

Skin color or Race?
These days no one defines there terms. There is no objectivity, only “feelings”.

This entire premise should be rejected outright and whomever spouts this race baiting nonsense should be told to go to hell where they belong.
Of course our own race affects how we view the world but that doesn’t make anyone a racist or privileged; it’s just a fact of life.
