Even if you want to call Trump’s comments on how we need to protect our country from Islamists and illegal immigrants (i.e. Mexicans), that’s not racist because Islam and Hispanic aren’t races! Islam is a war plan masquerading as a religion that includes all races, even white people. Hispanic is a culture of shared language that includes almost all races, including white people (Spanish is a European language). If comments on Islam and Hispanics are racist, then Leftist attacks on Christianity is equally racist.

You’re making it too complicated.

“Racist” is a 20th century neologism with no fixed meaning. Since it has no fixed meaning, and it’s intended referent, “race”, has pluriform meanings, there’s really no intellectually sound way to defend oneself or another against the charge.

It’s all postmodernism. A man feels like a woman - he is one. Someone feels you are a “racist” - (or derives advantage from pretending that they do) - you are one.

Try, at least in your interior life, to eliminate the sting that goes with the charge. It really doesn’t mean anything.
