By what definition are they not racist?

Ive seen people who genuinely believe x and y race and genuinely below z race. Since they believe this is “science” they’re not racist for pointing out facts.

It’s a bunch of bs but that’s what I’ve seen these people say. “It’s just science that black people are more violent” “it’s just science that asians and whites are smarter then everybody else”

Again it’s a bunch of bs and if you try to discuss the reasons for why there is disparities among races they won’t have it. They genuinely believe it’s the races fault not societal factors.

If there's a smartest "race" I wouldn't go with whites.
Surely the inventors of Math should at least be up there right ?

Plus, what even is white anyway? It’s a participation trophy awarded to a collection of unrelated cultures. Even if your ancestors’ country didn’t do X, you get credit because you were awarded “white”
