So now we’re actually changing dictionaries to match leftist dogma?

I have old dictionaries...and old history books...for a reason

Racism: the physical state of having light-colored skin.

Let me guess, the new definition of racist will be: All Trump supporters.

Well when ever some black celebrity trashes whites for whatever then we can call out racism against them too.

How very...Orwellian...of them.

Hang onto books, everyone. Electronic media is going to be constantly massaged to reflect the agenda “reality”

“‘Don’t you see that the whole aim of Newspeak is to narrow the range of thought? In the end we shall make thoughtcrime literally impossible, because there will be no words in which to express it.’” Syme, “1984”

[heartwood]

Activist academics campaigned to change the meaning of an ordinary word to a politically freighted meaning.

Now the MW dictionary agrees to let the political, academic definition replace the ordinary use.

Now the activists can browbeat ordinary people with the dictionary definition and prove that they are wrong.

Newspeak.

The above has all been crimethink.

I have been subjected to anti-white racism in education and employment my entire life—and I want my reparations and I want them now!

Watch them put “BIPOCs cannot be racist” in the definition.

an asymmetrical power structure

The asymmetry comes from many black people being poor, ignorant, and content to blame whitey for these facts rather than doing the work to change them.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Racism occurs when white people are allowed to exist.

Sound like anybody you know, Merriam?

"I was super happy because I really felt like that was a step in a good direction for a lot of positive change for a lot of different positive conversations that can really help change the world and helps change how people view things," she said.

Leftist Word salad.

racism
A term that used to mean prejudice towards one or more races.

In modern use, this word is used by people to explain the behaviour of people of other races, whether race is called into the issue or not.

Also: racism can now also include having good race relations. If you try to be friends with someone of a different race, someone will call you a racist.
Me: Dude I met this black guy when I was...

Idiot: RACIST!

Me: How is that racism? I was going to say that I met this black dude when I was going to see my best friend, who's asian.

Idiot: You're just friends with that asian because you think that makes you a good person for not being racist! You must feel sorry for him, you goddamn racist!

Me: Race doesn't come into it. But people like you force race issues into everything.

From the article:

“Peter Sokolowski, an editor at large at Merriam-Webster, told CNN that their entry also defines racism as “a doctrine or political program based on the assumption of racism and designed to execute its principles” and “a political or social system founded on racism,” which would cover systematic racism and oppression.”

So the new definition defines racism using the word racism in the definition.

Now how can racism be a “political program”? I’m guessing they are talking about the word “racist” not “racism”.

[Ge0ffrey]

Can Black people be racists by this definition?
