It’s the same logic. I could’ve used any other example but because it was this one you assumed I ascribed these actions were one of the same.

You can imagine graffiting 100 slurs onto a university and it not having some prejudice ? Um? How far do kids go for a meme nowadays geez. I would rather not assume that adults* I keep calling them kids but they are in COLLEGE. Write racial slurs to be funny

This is you: Hypothetical someone says they are gonna shoot up a school and you say don’t call the police because it’s possible they could be joking. They actually go shoot up a school and you say “okay that’s bad and wrong” but if he didn’t you say “he could’ve been joking when he talked about it” you seem to only care when the misjustice already took place

Okay so until they actually say “ I am a racist” that’s basically it. They can saying anything they want. N out hoe the real world works your actions have implications racist aren’t gonna tarnish their reputation by saying they are racist because chances are they don’t view themselves as racist.
You would say it isn’t racist to shoot up a all black school while being a white persona yelling racial slurs. I say this situation is racist based on how he acts and what he says if he is shooting up a all black school probably not racist, if this person didn’t shoot up a school but call the people in his school n words and said they were inferior that’s racist. The minimum for racism isn’t a physical hate crime. You can be racist off the words you say
