Identifying and making fun of certain behaviors is not racist. It can be used in a racist context, but it’s not racist in itself. Do you all believe that the majority of people saying “my rice” have racist intents?
I just do not think it’s rational to equate pejoratives and racism.
In my opinion, it’s not meaningful when you use the word racism to describe something regardless of intent. What it really means is that you have been offended (which of course can be a bad thing as well, but not necessarily). “Offensive”, “rasist” are both words describing the motives of the act, it’s not how you receive it. People will always receive information differently, and that is why I don’t think it’s sane to use the definition you provided. I do believe that your definition of “racism” is not the literal meaning of it either, what does the lexicon say?
The real issue I see is that it increases the risk of dispute, even when there was no intent to start an argument. I believe this is part of why media is creating such chaos in our society, not for good reasons and just for clicks.
And what do you know of it not being an impopular opinion in the US? I think you misinterpreted the assignment, it doesn’t say where (locally or globally) it is impopular.
In my country I don’t think so. Teachers get easily reported just for providing information that can be used by the other political spectrum. Has happened several times in drawing connections between migration and illegal acts.
Hey, we should all really stop using racist slang to refer to customozation
