I dont think the people im referring to are a minority, or marginalised....

This is not specific to you and your comments, but this highlights an issue i raised earlier.

Racism is racism. Majority/minority or not.....it shouldn't matter. I think there should be a distinction between racism (individuals) and systemic racism (perpetuated by government/society/majority).

I mentioned previously, that according to that definition, i would need to check my location and do a head count (to establish majority/minority status) to work out if something i said/heard was racist. That is frankly absurd. If someone says something against white/black/purple people here, or in africa, or in europe, or on venus, the comments are the same, the meaning behind them is the same, the location and people surrounding the comments are 100% completely irrelevant.
If i say something on tape, and its played in 1 country....its not racist. If that same tape is played in another country, it is suddenly racist? Ludicrous. It can be more (or less) offensive, sure, but its still racist (or not).

The sooner we understand that, and practice that, the better chance we have of ending it.
