re: Why is athletic superiority racist?

I'm just spitballing here but maybe it's a little more complicated than saying that one race is better at something than the other. Could it be that there are different ideals, pressures, circumstances (a number of things) that create someone who is better at one thing over the other and really doesn't have as much to do with race. But, what the hell of I know.

There are lots of variables in sociopolitical analysis. Race is just one. It doesn't have to always be viewed as the most significant. The problem is that people tend to lose their minds when race is even mentioned as being impactful and the issue devolves into a rhetorical dichotomy where race is portrayed as either the primary source of causality or completely irrelevant rather than simply being viewed as one of many variables of significance.
