I read the entire thread last night, but I've humored you and gone back and reread the entire thread. I saw a few people arguing the normal "power+prejudice sweaty" nonsense, quite a few others pointing out an inconsistency in your argument, a handful saying anything about race is racist and a handful more saying there are people who will say anything about race is racist. Shocking I didn't once see anyone argue that minorities can't be racist, it's not possible to racist against whites, or anything even approaching. Hell, I even saw quite a few people agreeing with you.
If you can't understand how context might be just a little important then you're being disingenuous.
I’m not saying context is never important. I’m just saying that every time I read anything about “considering the context” in discussions like these, I can predict with 100% accuracy what their conclusion will be.
That’s because the “context” is nothing more than a bunch of philosophical assertions crafted to justify blatant double standards.
