Now I feel more confident, you are a racist.
I think his point is that the biological definition of “race” cannot be applied to humans as we are all biologically one race with different phenotypes (skin color etc). It’s a bit of a pedantical discussion about semantics, but I think neither of you are racist.
Irrelevant.
Denying the social construct of race and it’s implications for those groups is erasure of those groups and is racism. Not recognizing this is a huge red flag.
I think my comments about “Nazis only killed white people.” Is being misunderstood. It’s not that the Nazis didn’t kill other ethnic groups… It’s that it’s denying that Nazis targeted Jews.
Denial of the concept of the "Jewish* race, from a biological standpoint or otherwise, is racism. That’s what this kind of thinking ends up getting to. The denial of the social constructs that exist causes the erasure of cultures and atrocities that those constructed groups face.
It is irrelevant if there is a biological basis for race.
White people in America sterilized black women until the 90s in medical procedures. Denying that there was a racial basis for this is erasure.
