I always thought that racist means basically “something that involves racism” and that racism means “the idea that there are races”.
By that definition this sentence would be racist, bcs it speaks of races. However, I met someone who said this and then claimed that this wasn’t racist. What does racist mean then?
I think racism is the noun, racist the adjective (“that’s racist” is short for “that’s a racist saying/idea”), and thé racist is the person who practizes racism.
