Racism is racism, but some is "acceptable". We all know this article is absolutely true though some will deny it. They have been taught that not all racism is racism. I guess the point of my observation is that, just like "fake news", there is fake education. Telling lies is not an art limited to journalists

Racism is never acceptable. There are many covert racists but also many have crawled out from their holes lately and are more than happy to be blatantly racist.

Good sentiment, but not an answer to the question poised.

I actually had posted this article by Walter Williams yesterday and had a couple of RP folks tell me that white people can't experience racism, because there was no such thing and that the "system" was rigged in favor of White people so it was impossible for them to experience racism. While I would have expected this response from a couple of millennials, I was surprised that some of our peers share this idea.

Col Carl Whicker I have seen qualified people not be offered employment because there was a candidate that checked all the EO boxes, other than really being able to do the job, who then became a drag on everyone else and morale.
