that's a new definition. looks like i now have 8 definitions of racist
Please share yours, I'm interested in seeing how others understand it. It's like fascism, I notice there is no standard definition of it. People toss it around simply to say I hate you.
my definition? well, i think no one would agree on my definition since it's been a loaded word my whole life, however I think of it in its purest form, which is "one who frequently thinks about or studies race", and it's agnostic of good or bad in the same way a biologist thinks about or studies biology; likewise for a chemist or physicist.
but the common way it was defined when i was younger was "someone who hates another ethnicity". And that term is long gone by now. There is a post somewhere online I found that had a good rundown of the different ways in which it is used, and people will switch definitions from clause to clause in a sentence; it's bizarre if you ask me.
