Racism. It's a thing. But, can we agree on what it is? Racism used to be discrimination based on race. I currently define it myself as treating somebody differently due to their race. Is it racist every time a white person has a difference of opinion with a black person? Is it racist if a Chinese man is offended by a Caucasian? Is it racist if I don't agree with your political views? Is it racist if I want to treat everybody the same regardless of skin colour, ethnicity, or race; is it racist if I disagree with affirmative action programs? Is it racism if I fight socialism and the redistribution of wealth? Is it racist for me to tell a black man he is wrong? Am I racist by being white.
P.S. I'm told I am often. it used to offend me. Now it angers me more.

Please don't censor me; I am trying to be honest and it is not my intention to offend anybody. If I have offended you personally, I ask you to accept my apologizes, forgive me, and consider not visiting my blog for my benefit.
