It really depends on your definition of "racist".
If a racist is a person who hates all people of a specific race just because of their race, then no, I am not a racist.
If a racist is someone who recognizes there are different races, and there are differences between those races, then wtf, I'm a full-blown hardcore racist.
Fwiw a relative of mine recently said, "Ya know Caesar, we grew up around 'em [in the Deep South], and all my life I've been willin' to try to accept 'em and deal with 'em. But it don't matter what we do to work it out, there ain't no pleasin' em, and there ain't no gettin' along with 'em. And I never really hated 'em before, but I hate niggers now more than I ever have in my whole life."
One time I told my woke boss I am racist. She said point blank, "No you're not."
Then she asked, "If a Mexican came to work on time every day, did their work, did it well, was friendly and professional, and went home at the end of the day, took care of his kids, didn't get arrested, and all that stuff would you still say 'I hate that spic'?" I told her probably not, and she said, "See. I told you you're not racist."
LOL.
Your boss has a great mindset on things. I laughed too.
She has high expectations.
There's a decent amount of hardworking spics that want to disprove the stereotype. One thing I will give to spics. The vast majority of them are VERY family oriented. They take care of their own. For example, you don't see Hispanics in nursing homes. Can't say the same for whites.
Spics also keep to themselves for the most part. They all stay in the same trailer par and keep their crime (mostly).
Exactly, well said.
The term 'race realist' was conveniently deleted from our vocabulary 80 years ago.
