14. The title of the OP was "Anybody Can be Racist". Extrapolating

from your remarks, we could re-state the title of that OP as 'Anybody Can be Anything at Anytime".

The whole point of having words is that (logocentric though this may seem) they mean something. Otherwise, why use words at all when gutteral grunts or a binary system of 1 and 0 would equally suffice?

If you are going to talk about 'structural racism,' I think having a definition of 'racism' is the sine qua non of the discussion.
