Why is this ?


Because far too often it's an argument ender...as there is no real retort to it. Sure, someone can say they aren't, but isn't that exactly what a real racist would say? It's a charge that can be levied against someone that can stick without any evidence and can be almost impossible to shake in the social media age.

None of that has anything to do with real racism...just why those who truly are not are not fond of being lazily lumped in with those who are because the accuser is either an opportunist, too lazy to know better, or too stupid to care.

That's why.

the difference is that while not all terrorists are black muslims, all white people are racists

The problem is that it is a term only used for white people. and the stigma can stick with a person even if it is false

It doesn't offend me at all. Especially when used by someone who doesn't know me and uses it as a blanket term for anyone who may disagree with them.

Because my wife is biracial, I have well defined calfs, and my penis is darker than the rest of my body.

If it's someone that doesn't know me it bothers me. They have no idea what's in my heart. But if it's one of the guys I regularly discriminate against based on their race I'm ok with it.

A majority of people don't even know how to accurately apply the term to a situation, so it has lost its punch IMHO.

It's impossible to offend me outside a highly personal attack on my family or friends.

"I am not racist. One of my best friends is black."

I think that is what my white arse is supposed to say. Seriously though I could not careless about any moniker and being offended is for inferior races.
