Seeing the right trying to claim leftists are racist because of BLM or whatever is the opposite of what you're saying I believe. Both about equally wrong.
I don't get caught up in political arguments.
Believe what you want but using words doesn't make a person racist.
All people use improper language or call each other all sorts of names.
The more you anger or provoke them the more likely they will call you fat, ugly or an idiot.
It doesn't mean they joined their local clan and are hanging people or burning crosses.
A person can use the word Chink or Gook and still not be a racist.
A person can say Nigger and not be a Racist.
When I played sports in High School all the black kids called everyone Nigger.
White, Black or Hispanic did not matter.
Apparently, everyone is a Nigger.

When people get mad at women, sometimes they call them a whore or a slut.
It doesn't mean they are sexist.
If you know that using a certain word would offend someone because it is a slur of some sort, then that is racist behavior. Does that mean it is fair to label that person a racist? I don't believe it does, but the behavior itself is still racist.
